Topic: SURGIVERSARY!
Hello OH'ers

Today, March 27th is my one year surgiversary!  One year ago I started this journey at 270 pounds and have lost a total of 113 pounds.  I am so thankful to God for this assistance with WLS to get back into good health and overall just to feel good about myself again...

For those that stop by...much success on your WLS journey!

Topic: Inspiration: EAT THE FRUIT OF YOUR LIPS!
Ever desired to have something so bad that you spoke it out of your mouth before it actually materialized?  Well that is actually an example of eating the fruit of your lips.  Speaking things of life into existance.  I can remember 4 days into dating my husband, he spoke out of his mouth, "you are going to be my wife."  Puzzled and thinking he was quite ****y in making such a statement, I asked, "What makes you say that?"  He responded, "A man just knows these type of things.  Needless to say one year later, I became his wife.

Think of the things you desire, the things you long to do but are held back by your weaknesses, and speak life into that thing and watch what materializes with faith and action.  Trust me, it works, think about when you didnt know if you would even be approved for WLS, now look where you are now!

Start today, and make that difference in your life NOW!

Topic: RE: Thought of the Day - March 15th

I have to say that mainly my mother and sisters were supportive of my choice for WLS. My husband was not. I listened to him as he told me that it was the easy way out, how I was going to leave him if I lost the weight, how I could fail and gain it all back, how he felt that I was using the insurance company and how he worked 20 years for our insurance ect...so on and so forth.

My decision was for me, I knew I must do this so that I could have a chance to survive. Honestly, I just let it go in one ear and out the other. I know that I should not have ignored him or his concerns but I was not going to let him hold me back from such a wonderful opportunity that I had. The reason that he said those things to me is because he was insecure, controlling and wanted me to change my mind. I didn't let it stop me, in fact it made me push on even harder.

Now, he brags about how well I have done and he wants to do things with me.

My suggestion is that you have to do what is right for you.  You and only you,  know how you feel and what quality of life that you have. I know absolutely that was the second best decision I have made, First was having my daughter. I wish everyone the best of luck with their journey.

Topic: RE: Thought of the Day - March 15th
My brother and I are very close. My sister went home to be with the Lord 28 years ago and ever since then my brother and I have been close. He was not for me having the surgery. I know he was concerned out of the love he has for me. He is know also my biggest fan. I also went into my surgery knowing God would be holding my hand, the surgeons hands and knowing that He would be taking care of me. I prayed about my brother's concerns and put it in God's hands.


May God bless you and keep you
In Christ

Topic: RE: An Inspirational Thought to Really Think About .,
I have to smile that you posted this. My church has 7 pastors and each one of them is precious to me and I am so blessed to call them friends. The one that I feel the closest to preached on February 14th and I missed the sermon so sunday I got it and I have been listening to it and he has been talking about Do we really love God? We do things for Him but do we really love Him with all we are with every fiber of our being? This quote reminds me of that. Are we willing to lay all we are and all we have down for God? thanks for sharing this


May God bless you and keep you
In Christ
