10 year WLS Success Statistics both frightening and comforting - xpost

((((Darlene)))),

Pleases don't think that I, or anyone else for that matter, are passing judgement or consider you a slacker because you didn't reach goal. Goal can be lots of things. For my surgeon the first 'goal' that they set for me was 60% of my excess weight at surgery or 178 lbs. My surgeon said that my 'ideal' weight or the 'original goal' I had, was 137. I never got there and I don't intend to.

I'm glad that you have established a goal you want to reach and that you are working to get there. If there is anything that I/we can do to help, please say so.

Wishing you continued success,

Barb

Ahhhhhhhh, gee Barbara, that felt like the much needed hug I needed.  Not to worry, I'll  be calling on you from time to time.
