Thanks for your support and friendship

As some of you know, I've been feeling blue lately. I had been feeling like I wasn't sure that I was going to be able to continue to post and/or participate in functions because I felt I was clearly unwelcome.

Well, I just wanted to take a moment to thank those of you who have replied to my posts and have PM'd me with an outpouring of kindness, thoughtful perspectives, love, and support.

You know who you are and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I haven't been online lately. Sorry that you have been feeling blue. I for one do appreciate your input. You have replied to my post and I appreciate it. I am just getting started on this journey . Hope that you are feeling better Betty

You will just have to shake off the blues. I think it hits different people at diff. times after all surgeries. You may be 2 months out of surgery but your body is still adjusting I'm sure.  Remind me of this after I get my wls. You give very thoughtful a truthful info and always have kind words for all of us. You are a valuable person on this board and to me..........Alll opinions are valuable.....I learn from alll on this board. And hopefully I can give back also. Please keep sharing your thoughts and opinions. It is extrememly welcome and deserving of being here. Gos Bless, Myrtis

Thanks for your kindness. I know that I have had and will continue to have some depression issues/episodes that are related to the WLS. This one really isn't.

If you read my profile, you will see that severe clinical depression has been, and most likely will continue to be a health issue for me for the rest of my life. It get better and worse by turns. Usually, it worsens when I'm under extreme stress.

I again would like to thank you for your kindness and look forward to staying in touch with you through our respective journies.
