Thank you for support, HAPPY 2011!!!

 I thank everyone on this board for support and information. I feel new and strange, but can say happily I am down 36 pounds from my high and 22 since surgery 11/23!!!

I struggle to get in my fluids. Barely tolerate protein drinks. Have constipation. I know if I didn't stay with the board, I would be lost in my little world. You all inspire me to keep trying to do the right things and focus on the good.

Hope everyone has a good 2011 and fulfills their dreams, whatever they may be.

Wendy, it takes all of us to make this board work.  For every question you ask, there are folks out there lurking who have the same question.  Newbees make us all think (as if I am an old timer) and that makes us stronger.
Things will continue to get better, you will find a protein you actually like, fluids will be easier, you will poop.  Let us know when we can help. 
And Happy New Year, it IS going to be a great year.

 Thanks, Price. You seem to be one of the fountains of wisdom. Have fun with your family and ponies next year. 18 pounds to go seems awesome and so doable.
