WELCOME Lisa! 58 pounds is awesome isn't it?? I'm so happy that you are doing something for yourself because being a mom to 4 is sometimes an overwhelming job and I don't know how you raise that many. I'm in Dallas (Plano) but we've got members all over. So glad you're here!
hugs, Y

HI LISA!! Welcome!! I'm just south of Ft Worth, so we're probably not too far apart geographically, and we're just keystrokes away HERE!

42 and a GRANDMOTHER? Did you marry at 12??...lol...Congrats to you on making the decision for HEALTH and for taking care of YOU. We VERY often put ourselves LAST (totally guilty myself). Often we have to be convinced we DESERVE to be FIRST sometimes! It sounds like you are being very successful.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. You will not be "flamed" here. it's not that kind of board.

KELLY--Welcome!!!! Like Y said-you have a great smile-very contagious! I love the excitement of new post ops-I need YOU way more than you need ME. Your positive energy inspires me to want to "do better" with the gift of WLS God has granted me.

I look forward to getting to know you better.

Topic: RE: OT-A good animal rescue by me!

oh exactly... it was more like a Jackhammer working on my palm.
therefore- the need for the LONG Heavy leather glove!
Those talons could also do a nasty number on your arm if you weren't wearing it!

But it was terrific. I've always been impressed by people who have hawks that they use for getting game birds. Just amazing that a wild bird will fly back to a person.

(here it is sunday am again so i'm off to update my progress - I'm getting closer to goal.... bit by bit...)

Hi , I am Lisa From East TX, A wife , a mother of 4 and a grandmother, and for the first time I am Me! At 42 years of age I had a RNY almost 3 months ago and so far I have lost 58 pounds wooo hooo .
I had thought about WLS for over a year and it took that year to change the way I thought and was able to start eating a healthier way to bring a better success in my post surgery.
I feel better and happier , I started living again and enjoying my life.
Looking forward to meeting more people who understand what we are going through in this journey.

Hugs to all, Lisa

Hi Kelly, you have such a beautiful smile. WELCOME!!! So glad you're here. I'm going to point a post towards this one so no one misses it. This thread is getting long and I don't want anyone to miss it. Congrats on 2 months! I hope you'll be here when it's 2 years. I just celebrated 9 years and I'm looking forward to 10. We've got people from all over and even South Africa! I'm so pleased you are here and thanks for introducing yourself.
hugs, Y

I appreciate you my friend. Everyone is kind here and mostly not afraid to post and that's the best part. You are a busy woman and you do stuff that's very important. Many people's jobs pale compared to what you do. I hope I have someone half as wonderful as you when I am laying on my death bed. You are an angel to those that are ailing.
hugs, Y
