Hello to everyone,my name is Jessie G.Harvey other wised knowed as FtWorthLibrta59.That's because I was bron in ft.Worth tx at Carswell air force base in 1959, on October 12 which makes me a Libra(the best sign of the zodiac).I'm very new to the group and weight loss surgery.My Surgery date is on April 9th of this year, just a couple of days away( and boy am I scared).The reason I'm doing this is because I've been on Kidney Dialysis for the last 7 years(because of high blood presure), and i've been trying to lose the weight I've gained over the years .Because I need to lose a total of 150 lbs.just to be on the list for a new kidney, and I'm just 52 and I have a 10year old and a wife that I want to be around for. This journey has been long and hard and crazy, but with God's help and the prayers of my friends ,family and Church I know things will be alright.I think that this web site and forum is what I needed , thanks to the powers that be for doing this for so many people.Thanks your new friend JESSIE G. HARVEY
Boy I'm Happy as a Lamb , because I'm down to 305lbs .That's good I'm down from 365lbs a month ago
Welcome to the group Jessie. Welcome to the losing side of surgery too. Great day to start the rest of your life. I have a friend here in MN that did wls to qualify for a transplant too. Worked great for him. Lost the weight, had the transplant too.
