SAUNDRA-whose PS presentation did you go to? Who will your appt be with? I have often said "I don't care", when it comes to loose skin, etc..but being back at goal...again...there are parts of my saggy body I kinda DO care about...esp the parts that show, and physically get in the way--like the batwings that get pinched, etc, and cause clothes not to fit--they are pure, overstretched skin, serving no useful purpose (except entertainment for the short peeps-they find batwings fascinating)...
You are so tiny,,,I cannot imagine you NEEDING PS..but I haven't seen you nekkid, of course...

ADASHA-
Happy Surgiversary!!! So nice to see your smiling face!!! Sorry to hear you are having a rough time of things, though. How can we help? There are so VERY, VERY mighty prayer warriors here. on the TMB-I have witnessed the results time and time again-totally awesome children of God!
What's new with you? How's your anemia? The fibro? Your migraines? Is your weight holding steady?
I've been a bit "upside down", in my own life lately, but am back-OH and TMB wise-TODAY. I have never "left", in nearly 12 years, and have never taken an "on purpose" break, but seem to start slacking, and one day leads to another...then it becomes a week, and I don't get done what I MEANT to do, despite my good "intentions"...
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE post again and catch us up!!!

Good Hump day everyone,
Hope everyone's week is going well. Mine is going by pretty quickly. Today I am grateful for peace in my life at least for the moment. Peace is a BEAUTIFUL thing !!! Peace of mind....peace in your decisions....just plain ole peace. LOL I am grateful for my family, friends, faith, Obesity Help, my WLS and all the choices for different surgeries ( one size does NOT fit all ), grateful for my pets that I love and love me unconditionally. Grateful that this weekend our highest temps ( at least for the weekend ) will be in the upper 70*. We've been in the 90's so that is a huge improvement. Just grateful I woke up today and that I am alive. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a blessed day !!
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Went to a plastic surgery presentation last night, I just need to make an appointment and see what the cost will be.
Work, laundry and watching Survivor is my plan for the day.
Have a great day!

Good Tuesday Everyone,
Not sure about what is going on this AM but I think that the government is shut down. I just turned on my TV. UGH But all in all no matter what is happening in the world around us....we STILL have to be grateful everyday of our lives. Today I am grateful that it is October. I'm hoping and praying that soon we will have fall weather. I am grateful today for everything material in my life.....my car, home, etc. I am grateful for my pets who are SO excited everyday to see me when I open my bedroom door and come out. My 2 cats demand to be loved as soon as I turn on my kitchen light. I love my pets SO very much. So very grateful for my WLS and all the choices that everyone considering WLS has today. When I had mine almost 8 yrs ago....I had only 2 choices. Grateful for all the things that I can now do that I could not do pre- WLS. Grateful for all the struggles that come my way because I know that they teach me valuable lessons even though at the time I would rather not learn them. I'm just very grateful to be alive today. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today. Have a blessed day !!!
