I thought I would stop by and say hi.  I have not been on this forum before as I was a WLS patient who was approved for RNY and had a surgery day.  However things did not go well on the day of surgery and I took that as my final sign that the surgery was not meant to be.  I desperately need to loose weight but I think the Lord wants me to do it the old fashioned way.  I have lost approx. 100 pounds so far (my scale is not working right I have to get new batteries before I know exactly how much I have lost) and unfortunately I still have a lot more weight to lose.  I am praying that I can stay strong and get this weight off me.  I need to do this not just for myself but my family!

My husband is a very severe diabetic (has already lost sight in one and we just found out that he is in renal failure) and I am not sure how much longer he is going to be able to work.  So I need to take the reigns from him in supporting our family and I can't do that if I don't get my health in order.  I am also trying to get my Psychology degree completed (which on days makes exercising hard to fit in, and school gives me a good excuse not to do it).   Anyway, I just wanted to give a short intro to me and let you guys know that I will be popping in from time to time and saying hi.   Take care and good luck to all as you try to achieve your goals!

Welcome, Kitkat! I have a very similar story.  I had a July 10 RNY date, but cancelled also because I had a sign that made me not feel right about it spiritually.  So I'm trying the "old fashioned way" also.  It's hard!   But you seem to be doing the right thing.  Losing that much weight is such an accomplishment!  You must be very proud.  You CAN do it longer! Best of luck! Bren
