Thank you Harriet. I think so too!!! He has earned my trust.

ps.....what are those pigs saying?

Hi Annie, I will certainly keep you in my thoughts and prayers on Wednesday.  Please do let us know how you are doing when you can.  You will be up and going before you know it.

Thank you Donna, i will.

Hi Annie,

It's nice to meet you and it's sooooo normal to have your emotions swinging like a monkey. What I can tell you is that I had my surgery just about a year ago and while I had some challenges, I have to say that it was the best thing I've ever done for myself. My only regret is that I waited so long to do it.

I wish you every success in your own journey and look forward to getting to know you as your make your way.

Warmly,

Barb

Thank you  so much Barb..i am so excited!!!

Good luck on your surgery Wednesday and we'll definitely keep you in our prayers. Please have someone update us on how you are doing if you can and remember we are here to help you through it! I'm sure you will do fine!

Thank you so much Mindy....i will take my laptop to the Hospital...am i being Optimistic?? lol How is your Husband doing with his surgery?

Actually not really (about the laptop). I was up and on it on Friday (surgery was on Thursday).   I think it all depends on you. I was in a lot of pain moving around, but once I got "settled" I was "all good". I actually was looking through some pics today of the surgery, etc (doing some scrapbooking) so here's one for you to show I was on the laptop. *hehe* http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h312/ECUMindy06/DSC01760.j pg I look a pretty rough , but had a little "desk" (Thanks to my sweet husband) the day after surgery!  BTW, it is crazy looking back at these pictures and ones from just a few months ago. I look like such a different person and YOU WILL TOO!!! :) James is doing much better, thanks for asking. He is just over 2 weeks out and has lost 25 pounds. He is "grieving" food which is normal, but he is finally able to incorporate more 'real' food gradually.  You will find that while your stomach is "fixed" regarding the food, your mind isn't. It's something you learn to work though though. Good luck again and I look forward to hearing from you!!! :)

I will send up a prayer for you on Wed if you send one up for me tomorrow :)   (I am having lap band surgery tomorrow)   I am sure everything will go well for both of us!
