Question:
Thank you, JAMELLE!

Thank you to all who responded so curteously to my earlier post about not wanting surgery right now, that I'm doing well on Weight Watchers for the time being. Having been obese since age six, I am definitely in for a long road, and I know all too well the "failure rate" of diets in the long run. I'm doing one thing differently this time--not "dieting," but making "life changes" as I like to call them. And incorporating for the first time, EVER, an exercise routine. So time will tell, and succeed or fail, its nice to know that there are "alternatives." Just because I don't feel right about surgery today, doesn't mean I won't be consulting my surgeon again sometime in the future. I applaud all who have taken the road to healthier lives, no matter what the road was that took them there. I've never seen more guts, encouragement and friendship than on this site. A blessed New Year to all!    — Linda J. (posted on December 30, 2000)
