    Topic: RE: WOW LOTS HAS HAPPENED TO ME!
    Thanks.  We got married outside on this little bridge at a park that we started going to.  It was cold (being in IN) but didn't feel how cold I was until I got back in the car.  Then I couldn't feel my toes LOL!  We had my parent's stand up with me, his mom with him (his father is deceased) and our children.  Very simple but that is the way we wanted it since we both had been married before.

    Topic: RE: WOW LOTS HAS HAPPENED TO ME!

    Wow where do I start?  Well let's see.  I had surgery on 6/4/08 and I have lost a total of 155lbs.  I am still 5 lbs from my goal but trying to put my mind back on things.  I also got divorced and got re-married on 2/14/10 (yes just yesterday).  I married my high school sweetheart after being apart from him for 23 yrs.  We were suppose to get married in high school and cancelled our wedding 10 days before it was to happen.  We re-connected the day before my b-day in Sept and have been together ever since.  This is a man that I have loved all my life and when we reunited he responded with the same answer that he has always loved me.  I am one of the most happiest people right now.  I can't even explain how blessed I feel right now.  I hope all of you got what you wanted for Valentine's day and hope everyone is doing really well.

    I am a little over a year out of surgery.  You will have this from time to time.  Your bodies are trying to adjust to everything that its been through and catch up.  Please don't give up and get rid of your scales.

    Whatever you do don't try to please them by being what they want you to be.  Be  yourself!  You are doing a good job.  Don't let anyone tell you different.

    Hi Amy

    I just had my year surgiversary and got my lab tests back yesterday.  My potassium is at 2.9 and they said it was critically low also.  I am not having the heart racing or anything like that.  They have upped mine to 3 pills 2 x's a day.  Are you doing anything else to try and get that up?  My zine and vitamin D are also very low.

    Topic: RE: My Father passed away and I am at fault
    I am so sorry you are feeling this way.  Not to get too personal but did they do an autopsy to find out what his cause of death was?  Maybe that will help you to make you not think this was your fault.  Please don't blame yourself for this.  Only GOD knows when its your time to go.  I hope you feel better about this soon.

    Topic: RE: MY LIFE CHANGED
    One year ago today!  On June 4th 2008 I had my gastric bypass!  In the beginning I wondered what I did to myself but I am feeling so much better not only health wise but self confidence wise.  Good luck to all of those that are still waiting or those who have just had this done.

    I am sorry I have been off work for the past 5 days.  He is doing really well and looks great?  I am not sure why he needed the transplant but I am thankful he is doing so well.

    I know a couple and they both had WLS.  He has a transplant after weight loss surgery.  He needed new kidneys.

    Topic: RE: GETTING NERVOUS....PLEASE READ!!!!
    I had my RNY on June 4th 2008.  I am almost one year out and have felt really good.  I have lost a total of 130lbs so far.  I still want to lose about 30 more to reach my goal.   This is something that you have to do for yourself and no one else.  Good luck and keep us posted.
