All I've heard lately is from concerned family/friends trying to talk me out of having surgery, so it meant more to me than you may realize to hear a kind vote of confidence! Over the last several months I've really been inspired by the journals and pics I've seen here so I'll do my best to put in my share for someone else. Someday I hope to find and attend a gathering of wls veterans in my area (southeast Texas,) sure looks like everone has a great time. Thanks again, and write anytime! John - Racertex — Racertex

	*10/13/2007 07:59 PM* Judy Thank you for your encouragement. I am a little scared but at the same time I am excited to start a new life. I too am a single mom, I have three grown sons -Ron is 36 and is a computer genius who is going back to school to get in the medical field. Ken is 35 and is an executive running a hospital in Philidelphia, and my youngest son -Bill, is 34 and just found out at 9am that he passed the law bar exam. We just got home from celebrating his success at an all you can eat restaurant. My last pig-out meal. I can't believe the difference in your before and after pictures. WOW you look outstanding.

	*03/26/2007 04:18 PM* I want to thank you for your words of encouragement. I read your story and and was inspired. I am not really nervous and not scared. I have really kind of numbed myself because if anything I am afraid to be anything. I just keep saying I will express my emotions when the surgery is complete. It seems like you really enjoy your life and I am hoping that this gives me a boost in that department. I have three children and don't want them to think that it is okay to just let yourself go. I try very hard to monitor their eating habits and right now none of them are overweight or even look like they will ever be, but we know how that can be deceiving. I don't have an angel yet but this wont be the first thing that I will have to face alone. I have two days left and I start my liquids tomorrow. I did have one thing that I wanted to ask you, why did your hysterectomy stop you from being able to have laproscopic surgery? I had one last year and my surgeon has not mentioned anything to me. I don't know. I am happy but scared to show it. I hope you are still having and will continue to have the time of your life. — [Anonymous]
	*03/24/2007 01:11 PM* HI!!Thanks so much for the wonderful support. It makes these kinda 'bluesy' days better. I will be updating as i go along so you can see my progress..Thanks again, and God bless, Andrea — andreaz231

	*12/30/2005 07:17 PM* Hi Judy, thanks for sending good wishes my way, very very much appreciated. If you read my profile, as i just read yours, you'll see i too am a single mom with two kids, 22 and 20. Going thru lots of fears, but for the most part handing them all to our Heavenly Father. Did i say you look absolutely fabulous? Gosh!!! Im looking forward to a G Cup, (after I buy them 5 or 6K? Awesome. God Bless You... Sorry about your mother. May she rest in peace. — Carmen Miranda
	*08/11/2005 07:54 AM* Hi Judy, You look fab darling! I cant believe you dont think your losing fast enough. Its amazing how far youve come! Ive lost 71 lbs in 15 weeks. I too know its less than some, more than others..But you know what....It's great for me! Even though I hate plateaus, it comes off when it comes off! Good work, and keep it up! — clbnest
	*05/02/2005 02:27 PM* I just spoke with Judy this afternoon. She has been released from the hospital, and is now staying at the Summerset Suites under "Judy Houson". She will be staying there until Wednesday when Dr Tanaka will examine her and then release her to come home. She is doing great, although she gave everyone quite a scare when she had an episode on Thursday. It started with exposure in the A.M. to a nurse soaked in nicotine, then ended with her participation in an exercise class for postoperative bariatric patients. Just to be sure she was ok, they moved her up to the 11th floor and hooked her up to all sorts of machines. By Friday she was deemed ok, and allowed to return to the 7th floor to enjoy the rest of her stay. Judy is already OFF her Diabetic meds, as well as reduced from 3 pills down to only 1/2 pill for her hypertension! WAY TO GO, JUDY!!! She has been released to drink her protein and lots of water, and had no problem after drinking her first two shot glasses while on the phone with me for a half hour. I am so excited for her, and I know that she really appreciated all the calls and visits everyone made to her. As she said...she is a big loser, and happy to be one! Take care, Judy, and CONGRATULATIONS!!!! — Tammara R.

Her daughter Allison said she was in/out of surgery and post-op recovery in less than 2 hours! How amazing! I am so excited for her, and I know many of you have been sending your well wishes. Please give her a call and let her know you are thinking of her! Her number is (619) 294-8111, and she is in room 730. Congratulations, Judy! Welcome to the losers club! You Rock! — Tammara R.
	*04/27/2005 07:10 PM* Judy Anne had surgery today and is doing great! I just got off the phone with her and she sounded inredible! Alert and feeling good. Judy is at: Scripps Mercy Hospital4077 5th Avenue San Diego, CA 92103 619.294.8111 Room 730--Bed 1. Judy would like visitors and phone calls., But please keep in mind that her voice is scratchy as she hasn't had any ice chips yet and has a very dry mouth. She can't talk for long but would enjoy well wishes. Judy will be at the Sommerset Suites following her discharge until at least Sunday until she is cleared to return to her home in the San Gabrial Valley, LA County!

S. Marden "Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil." ~ James Allen "I asked God to give me happiness. God said, "No. I give you blessings. Happiness is up to you." ~ Author Unknown "Goals give you more than a reason to get up in the morning; they are an incentive to keep you going all day. Goals tend to tap the deeper resources and draw the best out of life. "Put yourself in a state of mind where you say to yourself, 'Here is an opportunity for me to celebrate like never before, my own power, my own ability to get myself to do whatever is necessary." ~ Anthony Robbins " ~ Harvey Mackay "Life is a challenge, but if you don't stand and risk you will never know if you were able to win or lose. Challenges are not a thing of winning or losing; they are a way of learning from them to become a better person every day! ~ Alexsander Rodriguez, P.R "Don't ask for it to be easy, ask for it to be worth it." Dan Kuschell "The most important question to ask is not 'What am I getting?' The most important question to ask on the job is 'What am I becoming?'"You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however." - Richard Bach "In the confrontation between the stream and the rock, the stream always wins; not through strength, but through persistence." ~ Jackson Brown "I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning." ~ J.B. Priestly "Each of us has an inner dream that we can unfold if we will just have the courage to admit what it is. And the faith to trust our own admission. The admitting is often very difficult." ~ Julia Cameron "The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak becomes a stepping-stone in the pathway of the strong. That block of granite is often nothing more than a decision." ~ Thomas Carlyle "Being yourself is not remaining what you were, or being satisfied with what you are. It is the point of departure." ~ Sydney Harris "Risk! Risk anything! Care no more for the opinion of others, for those voices. Do the hardest thing on earth for you. Act for yourself. Face the truth." ~ Katherine Mansfield "Too often we are scared. Scared of what we might not be able to do. Scared of what people might think if we tried. We let fears stand in the way of our hopes. We say no when we want to say yes. We sit quietly when we want to scream. And we shout with the others, when we should keep our mouths shut. Why? After all, we do only go around once. There's really no time to be afraid. JUST DO IT." ~ Nike advertising campaign "I am convinced that attitude is the key to success or failure in almost any of life's endeavors. Your attitude - your perspective, your outlook, how you feel about yourself, how you feel about other people - determines your priorities, your actions, your values. Your attitude determines how you interact with other people and how you interact with yourself." ~ Carolyn Warner "Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives." ~ Author Unknown "It's never too late to be what you might have been." ~ George Eliot "For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it." ~ Author Unknown "Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to the end, requires some of the same courage which a soldier needs." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson A wish changes NOTHING; A decision, changes EVERYTHING "So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will,they soon become inevitable." Christopher Reeves "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you. For I am the LORD your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior." Isaiah 43:2-3 Everyone has beauty but not everyone sees it. "If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they may have planned for you? Not much." ~ Jim Rohn May you always have an Angel by your side. Watching out for you in all the things you do. Reminding you to keep believing in brighter days.
