Hey Miss Diva gal! I wanted to wish you well on your upcoming surgery! Just about a month away. Guess what, you are having surgery 2 days before my 2 years out. I know you will do great. Remember the first couple of days and even the first month will be hard, but always keep in the back of your mind that it will get better daily. That your friends on OH are here for you through this. Many blessing on a new life of health!

Hi Simone, I am dropping in to sign your page, I just looked at your profile and your kids are adorable, and you my dear are gonna be one hot chick once you reach your goal. Not that you aren't hot now, but sizzling hot after your surgery. May will be here before you know it and you will be on your way. Keep the good attitude up, its half the battle. Hugs Heidi

Hello again and <b>Congratulations</b> it's finally a "reality" and your specdial day is right around the corner! This is a second chance to LIVE life again. No words can express the freedom that comes with losing the excess weight. Walk as much as possible after surgery. It'll be tough at times and you'll find that you'd much rather cuddle with your pillow then get out of bed. Don't!! Get up and walk, walk and walk it'll help with the overall surgery and recovery results. As your body begins to heal make sure to get in your protein, even if it means plugging your nose and chugging back the drinks in baby [pouch] gulps. Vitamins need to be chopped, minced or crushed... whatever it takes to get them in daily, no exceptions, <u>YOU are worth it.</u> Also, let's not forget your new best friend, water. It is SO important to get your minimum 64 oz in daily. There is a learning curve, per se', with this surgery. Don't expect to have it all down to a fine art immediately, give yourself a 90 day grace period that comes with a deadline! One final thing, <b>CELEBRATE</b> all the special moments along the way, big or small. Too many people focus only on <i>numbers</i>, ie. pounds lost. There are so many "moments" to look forward to and embrace on this journey - don't let any of them slip by. Enjoy your new healthier life, you've more then earned it!! This surgery has been nothing short of a miracle for me and I will be forever grateful. I'll leave you with one of my FAVORITE quotes...... <i>"To grow, you must be willing to let your present and future be totally <u>unlike</u> your past. Your history is not your destiny." -- Alan Cohen </i> ..... <b>So very true! : )</b>
