Marian, You look wonderful. You look like a different person all together. I only hope to look half as good as you! I had surg on 5-3-04 and am down 49 lbs. My weight is comming off slowly. Sigh... I think that wls is a God send! I truly believe that if you have not been classified as Morbidly Obese, then no one knows what it feels like both physically and mentally. Your pics were an inspiration for me. Thanks for sharing them!

Best wishes to you for an uneventful surgery and a recovery thats as quick and painfree as possible. This quote is from a book my grandmother gave me before she passed away. It was one of her favorites.(Kahlil Gibran) "But if in your thought you must measure time into seasons,let each season encircle all the other seasons, and let today embrace the past with remembrance and the future with longing"

Marian, I know your scared, I go through my own bouts of fear regarding the surgery. I don't know if your a religious person but the way I get through my fear I figure if God wants me he will take me from the operating table, walking down the street, or sitting on my couch. When it is my time it is my time no matter what I am doing. This is meant to help you no scare the dickens out of you, this is truly how I feel. My surgery date is on the 15th. I will be watching for your post after your surgery. Good luck! Your in my prayers! Tonia Johnson
