well good morning! its good to see such enthusiam on a monday morning...so here are my answers. 1. i miss fried chicken and icecream. 2. to know that im not alone. this is the first site i feel like i can write and sanwer without someone scrutinizing. the other one i was on felt more like an outsider. 3. unsatisfied 4. after my mom died i started dieting seriously because i knew she wouldnt sabatoge me or comment. that sounds bad but no matter what i did it wasnt good enough or the right thing to do. when she passed i felt a weight lift from my life. sorry that sounds harsh.. 5. i would like to be running. i heard that its a high and i want that feeling. i would like to be back in school again for a couple classes. esp. since work will pay for it. have a great day and get your water in diane in minnesota

Good questions! 1. Fried potatoes with onions. 2. Support and information 3. Healthier!!! 4. When my PCP told me I wouldn't be walking in a year or living in 5 if I didn't do something drastic like having WLS. Failed back surgery, resultant failure of back and abd. muscles and leg weakening, daily pain level made it difficult to concentrate on anything, and my life was becoming house-bound. My family was going on about their lives without me, leaving me behind in a recliner at home, not because they didn't love me, but because I couldn't do the things they were doing and hurt too much all the time to be good company. 5. I'd like to re-open my web business and make a living with it. Disability status prevents that right now, and I'm still having probs sitting more than 20 mins at a time. Myra

1.What one food do you miss eatting more than ANYTHING? Ice cream. I tried some no sugar added fat free ice cream and thought I was going to die... it was NOT a good thing... and before surgery I LOVED LOVED LOVED the stuff... Ben, Jerry, and I had a very intimate trio going and sometimes we would let Lady Godiva jump in there too! 2.What one thing about the Obesity Help Website is there that has helped the most with your weight loss journey? I really appreciated being able to read the profiles pre-op. I was addicted to those! 3.If you could describe how you feel most of the time with one word, what word would that be? Meloncholy... me and Eeyore! 4. What point in your life made you decide this is it! Im having WLS or looking into it? When four years ago my endocrinologist said that I would be lucky to live five years. I had already been researching for a couple of years and up to that point had NOT been willing to go for it but I wanted to live and knew that I had to do something drastic... little did I know it would take me four more years to get insurance approval... I was getting scared and NEVER forgot his words, "you will be lucky to live five years!" 5.What do you want to be doing a year from now if possible? A friend at church challenged me to do the ropes course with him next September at our annual parish retreat so that is my goal.
