They are still saying lots of snow along the Arkansas , Mo. Border,,,,they are calling for 7 to 12 inches. We will see. I think it is suppose to start sometime during the night..

But so far nothing on this side of the border. Lol

I got an email from a friend of mine that just had some facial surgery done since wls. She like me lost a lot in her face and left her with really bad wrinkles and loose skin on her face. I think I have never believed the before and after pictures I have seen before from plastic surgeons but she sent me her 2 week post op pictures and they are truly amazing.

She looks about 15 to 20 years younger. So I think I will be going back to work soon to be able to save up the money to have the work done .I hate looking so old when I feel so young. Im not saying this for someone to say that I don’t look old and all that stuff, but is how I really feel. I hate looking in the mirror. Sort of funny come to think of it. Before I lost weight that is all I did look at in the mirror, and convinced myself that I didn’t look bad at least I didn’t have a lot of wrinkles now that I have lost weight I look at the rest of my body in the mirror(dressed of course) and think hey don’t look bad and don’t want to look at my face at all because it is so wrinkled now. Crazy world huh?

TRACI: well im tired of snow and it we haven’t had any while we have been home.

Im tired of the cold and wet weather. So is my joints. They told me when I had the scan to check my bones that I had really strong and big bones but that the joints all looked bad lol I already knew that, I can tell the weather as good as any weather man.

Those oatmeal raisin cookies were great I bet.

BEVERLY B: WOW how wonderful that you haven’t smoked in what 8 days now? Girl you have it beat now. Just keep saying I know I can do this, and Keep your eye on the prize ….it will all be worth it really it will.

Down where we are the snows just seem to skip over us. Don’t know if it is because we are beside the lake with hill all around or what but so far (crossing my fingers) we have been good.

Ive heard no more about Mels mother but im sure that when I do or Tammy does we will let everyone know. I know how Mel is feeling , it is really hard to lose your mother.

DEBBIE: OH yes I loved studied the book of Daniel. It is a wonderful book.

Oh yes when you know something more about your conference and all let me know for sure and I will drive over and say Hi , Im sure I would love all your friends too.

I think everyone is really anxious for spring to get here this year. Maybe if we all think it at the same time so on the count of three , close your eyes and spin around twice and yell it really loud SPRING SPRING SPRING LOL

Next Thursday is the first day of Spring, I wonder what we will get that day more ice and snow? Just seems like winter wants to hang on this year…

Oh well in August we will be saying how hot it is. Lol we humans are never satisfied are we?

BOBBY JO we will be praying for you this morning. She is having gall bladder surgery this morning.

GOD BLESS EVERYONE.

Jan, Thanks for the prayers for our new support group starting up down here in the bootheel!!! Pray for me too.....This is important to me and I want very much to do a good job as a leader. Brenda has offered to help me out so at least Im not swinging it alone! And yes we do need one down this way....The closest support groups I have found for my area are either in Springfield or the St.Louis area. That is so far to drive for just a few hours. I talk to Cindy and she is really wanting to start attending meetings and Brenda and I have talked about it alot. I meant to have already gotten around to finding a place for us to get one started up. But I constantly seem to be busy. And I know it's not the best choice in the world but I decided till we could come up with something we would meet at a little cafe that I know of in the bluff. It is a decent sized country cafe and very comfortable. At first I was worried about trying to do it there but everyone always goes out and eats afterwards anyways so we will just kill two birds with one stone. lol lol...... We hope to find a regular place to meet because it might be hard for someone that is preparing for surgery to attend a meeting where there is food. But for now this is how we are going to get started. So far I know it will be myself, Brenda and Cindy H. And there is a lady I met this summer that is in the works of getting her insurance to pay for her to have it done and she seemed interested in attending a support meeting so I am trying to reach her in time for her to maybe come Tuesday night too. Then we are going to make flyers up to put out everywhere we go and I am going to check into maybe putting an ad in different papers that will cover areas aprox 50-75 miles so of Poplar Bluff. I know there are lots of people out there that are interested in WLS but doesn't know anything about it or don't know how to go about it. So I hope to draw in some that are interested in learning about it and maybe taking the step to do it. As well as those who have had it and would like to attend the meeting for extra support. So maybe with a lil luck and some prayers we will pick up from our 3-4 memebers and build up as well as the COF has with memebers. But I pourposely set our meetings where it would not interfere with me coming yalls way for meetings every so often. We have even talked about bringing our group and coming once in awhile. I know Cindy H is anxious to meet all of you in the COF group, so I hope that she will be able to make a trip with Brenda and I later on after the weather is better. And who knows maybe we will have a few more to come with us...Guess I better talk to Janet and see if she can get us some kinda special at the motel huh? lol lol.... Well got to run....Thanks again for the prayers!!! Hope you all stay safe in this nasty weather... God Bless each of you.... Luv & Hugs...Tammy~ammy PS....Yall please say a lil prayer for me....I only like 3 more pounds and I will be out of the 300's!!!!!!!!!!! I am so anxious Im about ready to cut a few toes off and see if that gets me there lmbo!!! I have not been in the 200's in probably 15 years or more!!!!
