Kimberly, hi. I am pre-op, surgery next month on the 12th. I was looking up some stuff about nutrition, and saw a message from you, and started looking at your page. i cant even remember what the original message was. I do know though that you have accomplished what so many only dream about, and you're beautiful! I look at your picture, and I think, "I hope I can get that thin" and I think its too bad that you've had to suffer so much. I guess even after wt. loss, we are still fighting the same battles, we are the same person. Thats ok...at least we have alot of help. Remember how it was before surgery. I dream daily of losing even just some wt. I also decided it's just a dream that will never happen because Ive done all I can. I will always be this way, and that stinks! Well, not true any more, because of WLS. Anyway, I see what youve done, and had to go through, and I say "you go girl!!!" give em hell, and dont ever let anyone take away that dream, because you have paid the price! Look again at yourself, and be kind. You are beautiful, and I know after all, that if you weren't strong before, you must be now. Strong enough to take charge, and do whatever is needed, and be proud of what you've done. The dream is yours, forever. Dont forget it, always take care of it, and cherish it. You deserve it!
most sincerely
Judy
