I've read messages on this site before, but never took it very serious bcause I planned to have WLS, Well,  because I couldn't go off my Plavix my surgery was cancelled. I had open heart surgery 4 years ago. I was scanning the website and came to this one. I was so encouraged by whatwas being said I decided to join. As my grandma said, "There's more than one way to skin a cat"
Thanks for beng there

Dear Creamepuff:

I've been on this website a while, and I also belong to Overeaters Anonymous.  It's a group for people who are compulsive overeaters, bulemic, and anorexic, as well.

I've been in OA recovery for real since September 3, 2009.  Since then I've been eating six meals a day - three larger ones, plus three snacks in between.  I eat vegetarian, too.

I've been healthier and happier since then, and losing weight steadily.  I've lost almost ten pounds since November 18, 2009, going from 241.5 to 232 pounds.  I also walk regularly, on an indoor track.  During the winter, I walk on a track, and during the warmer months, I walk outside.

Hopefully, you'll be able to lose weight and get healthier by following this website, and hopefully, try eating six meals a day, too, like I do.  It's the healthiest way to get trim, in my opinion.

Welcome Cream!

I hope you are resting comfortably from your surgery, and are healing quickly!  I am new to this site, too. 

Don't worry about not having surgery.  Sometimes we can be thankful for unanswered prayers!

Cheers!
