Full of changes and new experiences. I can hardly wait to see what I look like and feel like one year out!!! Congratulations to YOU!!! If you have an opportunity and/or haven’t already, please stop by and update your profile! We’d all love to know how well you’ve progressed!!! If you have a few moments, please take the time to send well wishes to your fellow “re-birthday” buddies!!! It’s a great boost to them as well as yourself. Have a FANTASTIC DAY!

Hi all! Today I am 2 weeks post op and all is going well. Thank you all so much for your prayers and good wishes. I came home from TGH on Sun 8/17/03 and am getting better every day. Lost 25 lbs so far, I'm thrilled! It feels better already. Wed I have an appt with the dietician who will hopefully help me adjust to what I believe is lactose intolerance. It makes me queasy. Bummer. I am still sore from the surgery, but no real pain. I sleep in bed, propped up on pillows, and can't wait to sleep on my side. Most days I spend alot of time in the recliner watching tv. At least I can get around and pretty much take care of myself. Got sick yesterday for the first time, and I think it has to do with the yogurt I ate. It then gives me heartburn and made me sick. I am still sore from that this morning.

<b>I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY~*~ I said a prayer for you today And know God must have heard- I felt the answer in my heart Although He spoke no word I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind, I asked Him to send treasures Of a far more lasting kind, I asked that He'd be near you At the start of each new day, To grant you health and blessings And friends to share your way. I asked for happiness for you In all things great and small, But it was for His loving care I prayed the most of all.</b>
