Good Wednesday Everyone,

Hump Day has finally arrived and so has our super cold weather.   Well....super cold for Texas that is.   It is 28* this AM and that is our daytime HIGH.   We have snow flurries in the forcast for the next few days and forcast for a wintery mix as well.   UGH How I HATE being cold and I can't seem to get warm.   BUT I AM grateful that I woke up this AM and that I am alive.   LOL  OK enough venting about the weather.   I know 30* is a heat wave in some parts of the country and it was colder here yesterday.    I do have so much to be grateful for and so do you as well...I'm just not grateful for our weather today.    LOL   I am so grateful that over 9 yrs ago a friend of mine told me about her WLS after coming to visit me.    I am so grateful after she kept bugging me that I looked into and decided to have my WLS.   I have never regretted having this life saving surgery and it was so worth anything I went through to get approved.     Even though I am not where I want to be weight wise I am SO much better than I was at almost 300 lbs at 5'1" tall.     Grateful for OH and all the forums, encourging help for others, and geat support on here.     Grateful for all the things that I can now do that was only a dream before my WLS.    Grateful for my faith in God and for answered prayers everyday.    PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today.    Have a blessed day and stay warm today.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good morning

Spent another night on the pull out bed at the hosiptal.  I keep this up going to need back surgery myself.  They did procedure yesterday to release the pressure from the gas build up and started him on a medicine that hopefully will help wake up the section of the colon that is still not working.   Hoping X-ray they took this morning shows some improvement.

Took today off so I could help DH get around and not worry about work.   I am going to hate to see the numbers in the scale after all the boredom eating I have been doing.

Have a great day!

Good Tuesday Everyone,

Hope you had a good start to the week.   Mine was OK I wish I could say uneventful but it wasn't.   Today I am grateful that we are getting some much needed rain even though I am going to have to go out into it in a little bit to go to my Aunt's house.    I am grateful for waking up this AM and so grateful for my WLS and all the choices of WLS today.    Grateful for all the things that I use to dream of doing before my surgery that are now normal.    Grateful for Obesity Help and all the support and encouragement on these forums everyday.    Grateful for the staff of OH that are behind the scenes making this site a success.  Grateful for all the amazing people that I meet on these forums everyday.    PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today.   Have a blessed and safe day.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

I am not familiar with that insurance nor do I live in San Antonio.   My niece is on medicaide and she had WLS with Dr. Wright.    You might want to call some bariatric surgeon's offices there in SA and ask if they can give you some names of some PCP's that support and encourage WLS in your area.    Good luck to you and I wish I could offer more help to you.  

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
