Megan Baker-Ruppel She is the most awesome Person alive, God blessed her with the skills and knowledge to do this . She is also kind and honest, she's not in it for the money and you can tell shes into helping people. She is very soft spoken yet stern in what she believes and says ..My protein levels were low and she said she would not do the surgery if they did not improve . She has motivated me to do all i can to make sure this tool and 2nd chance at health is used to full potential. Dr Baker i loveeeeeeee YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU

I just wanted to say another quick hello. Ive been so busy since ive been back at work, i havent been stalking oh.com like i was pre surgery. I wish Oh was a lil more like Myspace so we could really know when people where last on and see little quick updates about them. Lana your so sweet every time i come on almost i see a lil note from you. Dont stop!! You Encourage me and i love ya for it. To all whove had surgery Congrats and to those whom have yet to cross the beginning line to the race, Patience and Prayers are coming your way. Im currently 2months out and 40 pounds down. So praise God from Whom all blessings flow. I think i finally found out how to boost the losing process even more. But its a secret ill come back and share next week when im sure it works! lol Well im done for now love you all - Manda
OH yeah for you myspacers.. Add me if you like
www.myspace.com/missmanda843
the email if you cant find me is Justmanda843@yahoo.com
and for some reason my words are ran together after i save but not in the editor so...umm..forgive me
Just wanted to say a quick hi to everyone that comes by my page and sends me messages. I love you all.. Currently im still at 36 pounds lost. Im feeling the need but lacking the motivation to get up and exercise.. I know i need to do better to keep that scale moving down. This is the hard part. But i always said if i had the surgery that id do all i could . So im on it .. !!! More updates to come soon. To everyone who just had surgery Im so proud of you. To all whom are considering or waiting for your date. Keep the faith
Man i went for my 4 week check up and was honest with my surgeon lol .Man i have lost 32 pounds since may 28th but i asked her about the 1 thing i was cheating with 100 Calorie snacks .. OMG i just had 1 lol and it was good but Major NO NO NO! lol i wont be doing that again. I had to go talk to the dietician and revamp what i can eat. They kinda just thru me out to the wolves after surgery. And i dont care what none of those skinny heffers say! "its only a month" They obviously have not tried eating soup or puree only for a month .But then again they do not have the weight problem i do. So now im back on target since i can eat a "regular diet" and i actually have a check list and a way to track and plan what i am eating today and what im going to eat tomorrow. So im back on target and ready to shake these pounds off! If you havent had the surgery ill tell you this because people who have had it already know. Dont be afraid of the surgery thats the easy part. Be prepared for the after surgery life because it sounds easy until you have to live it. Its a mental thing more than physical. But yes Manda will be on track and where she needs to be when she needs to be there. Ive tested the waters and lets just say its not a good day to fish lol!~ Be blessed Live Blessed - Manda
Hey everyone , My name is Amanda and i'm still in my Pre-Op Phase (i will have surg in May 2008)...
Im getting excited yet nervous now because they pushed my original date of May 7th back until
my protein levels improve. I look as this Site as a chance to really let go and say exactly how i feel about what
im going thru now and what i have yet to go thru before and after "WLS" .everyone has referred to this as a Journey...
Ive taken that on as well my life is now a journey for health and happiness..
So As i stated i am in my before phase and i cant wait to update you guys with pics and stories of everything..
. I hope that others will learn from my page as i have learned from reading other Peoples pages...
This site has the most courageous people on earth, So thats all i have to say for the moment
