Hi Mary! Congrats on having your surgery! Let the weight loss begin!! I bet you feel relieved now. It's over and now you are on the other side and can join the ranks of the losers. Welcome, my friend!!! Happy RE-Birthday to you! From this day forward you life will change forever. Just try to take it easy and remember to sip, walk, deep breathe and cough. Take those pain pills and splint the tummy! These first few days are rough, but I assure you they get better with each passing day. Some days those emotions will resurface and try to get the best of you, but just remember what you’ve been through to get this far! I’m sure you’ll be proud of what you’ve accomplished!! You know you can always come here and get a dose of confidence and good will! We will still be here to support you and cheer you on as the pounds come off! I just wanted you to know that I was thinking about you today and that you are in my thoughts and prayers for an uncomplicated, swift recovery. You are an official loser!! Wishing you much success in your weight-loss journey. Today you burst out of that cocoon and become a beautiful butterfly! Tomorrow you’ll spread those wings and embark on a wonderful journey! Soft hugs to you today. God bless, DI from NJ - Lap RNY, 12/09/03 ~In Loving Memory of Momma Angel~

Mary just wanted to let you know WLS is your decision only. I feel a lot of people do not really realize what they are about to go through, and once crossing over they want to turn back but don't. God bless you and keep you and when and if you are ever ready we at AMOS will be here for you.

MARY~~ WLS is a decision only you can make for yourself. I respect any decision that you make. Perhaps you'll find comfort in knowing that your AMOS friends are supportive of all that you do and believe that whatever decisions you make, they'll be the right choices for you! So just keep putting one foot in front of the other and taking your life day by day. There's a brighter tomorrow that's just down the road. Don't look back.... you're not going that way! PLEASE KNOW THAT YOU ARE WELCOME ON THE BOARD ANY TIME, EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT HAVING THE SURGERY!
