Hi Kaye, welcome to this site. Congratulations on your upcoming surgery. By the time you read this, you'll be post op. I try to come to this site everyday. I'm having problems getting on this site and the technical help at Obesityhelp thinks it's with my computer somewhere. I have to wait until someone posts and then I can get to the site by viewing the full posts (when Obesityhelp sends me a synopsis of the day's or week's posts). It makes it difficult. I try to post and respond as often as I can so you'll probably see my name up several times. Good luck and know that for me at least this was a good decision and I'm glad I made it. Follow your doctor's instructions. There will be a time shortly after surgery that you're going to say to yourself "What in the world did I do to myself?". You'll go through "head hunger" and mourning food. When things get tough come back to this board and vent and we'll help you through it. Good luck Kaye. Melody -140 lbs now I weigh an honest 120 pounds and proud of it.

Thank you! Congraulation on the new uo coming baby. I have 2 daughters and 1 son. There all grown and I have 8 wonderful grandkids. Kaye

Don't Give up, I am thinking there a reason, the Lord must have something very special for you at the Temple. I had to wait myself, and I can tell you the experience was more then worth it. To be taught by Heavenly Father at his Temple. Know that he loves you and yes Satan is working on you, but know he will not win. Stay strong in his truths and you will be glad you did. Love Kaye

Well when things get to routine the Lord will help get things all messed up again. Where my DH works went on strike (Asarco Mine). We came home from vaction to that. We were in Burney Ca. He was offered another job--- It is a little bitty town and we both just love it and can't wait to get back up to it. The ward is about 28 miles away and it is itty bitty too. There are 5 stakes here in Tucson(I think). At church Sunday there might have been 30 people (including children). Wow every one could bare there testimoney(sp). That will be a hard one for me. Because I depend on my memeber friends to get me threw the very hard times. Threw all these changes we are only depending on HF to get us threw this. I do not know how people go threw life without the Gosipel o shut I can't spell anything. I have such a strong testimoney latley. I almost lost it but had to get out there and find it. I started having more personel prayers. DH & I always have nightley prayers but that at times seems just not sufficent. Even thou I pray for the same things in my private ones that I do in are evening ones. Well all Have a good Day. Saralan

Contact the web site monitors and let them know that we can't get to the messageboard. Inform them of the problem and see if it can be resolved. This is the best answer I can come up with. Donna
