Wow! Five of us on Tuesday! Thanks for posting Hat I just wanted to thank everyone for the tremendous support and I'm sorry I've been gone lately, I'm moving at the same time *lol* But I love my Washington board and my Washington buddies Good luck to everyone one of ya and God bless, you'll all be in my prayers!

Oh boy, good luck to all you soon to be losers!

Good luck and nearly congratulations to all of you! It is scary, it is also the best thing you can do for your own health at this point, and you know it. Let your doctors, hospitals and caregivers take care of you now for a while and rest up. Keep us posted on how you're doing. It is especially important to post whether you're feeling good or feeling not so good - trying to be brave and go this alone is just too darn hard. We are all here for each other and we'll keep the positive thoughts going for you now!! Good Luck and God Speed. Karen Thompson 09-15-2004

Hi Hat and thank you for remembering our surgery dates in this post. Just got back online as was out of state for surgery (North Dakota) - with Dr. Howell who is a family friend and ... also happens to have veerry excellent results 3-4000 surgeries and 0 losses. As of last week had lost 35 pounds (10 pre-surgery) - but notice a huge difference in slacks in the last couple of days so think I've probably lost some more since last week's weigh in. Am getting some food in, some back out and sometimes too much in - it seems. Onward and upward (downward - more like it)! Looks like some of the people who were posting when I left have dissappeared. Thanks again & hope you are well. Jan S. (kiki)
