Nice comments from my Surgeon's Patient Co-ordinator...

BIG BIG hugs my friend.  Thank you so much for 'getting it'.  I can't thank you enough.  I had so many doubts along the way about my goal of 140 lbs.

Before I ever found OH, on every previous diet that was my goal.  It was only when I came to OH that some folks made me feel like there was something wrong with me for wanting to be that slim.  It hurt and upset me...  It even may have derailed me for awhile.  I was almost willing to accept a goal that made them happy and comfortable...

Then I got sick and had lots of time to think about things, this is 'my' dream, I'm not doing this for anyone else but me.  I choose to look a certain way, and I now know there is nothing wrong with what I have chosen.  I know this because I look in the mirror every day, I walk around in this skin every day, I know I look 'my' personal best here.  I realize that is not what others want for themselves, and I respect that.

In the past I thought all women wanted to be model thin.  It is a wonderful eye opener to me to see women lose down to various weights that will get them to 'their' personal best.  To keep curves, or to not look older, or to not feel vulneralbe, or to not be a 'bag of bones' lol  I LOVE that not everyone wants to look the way I do, that is so cool.

I have arrived and it feels so unbelievably good, words cannot express how I feel each time I get dressed in the morning... when I go out in public...  when I meetin new cleints...  when I am making love with my sweet hubby...

To hear others agree that I am not too thin is really only a special bonus...  it reinforces everything I thought I already new.  I so appreciate the sincere feedback, thank you.

More hugs,

Cindy

      Thanks Ms. Shell.  You are another one who 'gets' it.  The look I want is so different from the look you want, and you have always supported me and never made me feel like I need phycological help.    (which I do, but not for my goal weight...  )

I love you my sweet friend, and I especially love our differences.  Thanks for being you and allowing me to be me.

Big hugs,

Cindy

Yep,  you are my hero too!  You deserve the kind words!

  Thank you so much my dear...
