UPDATE **** FEELING GREAT ***** HAPPY

Hi all:  I am so thankful for this site, and all your prayers that brought me through such a rough time in my life during the month of July.  I was definately challenged, and prior to surgery would have eaten my way through all the stress.  Things are getting much better, still a little rough but I see a big light at the end of the tunnel, and I am working my way through.  I am finally feeling stronger, and soooooo happy with my decision on this surgery.    I am walking more, and definately not feeling so depressed.  I actually feel a bit more normal.  I sometimes have to remind myself, oh yeah, I did have surgery.  My first week, I was ready to return the surgery like I would have returned a top I didn't like.  Oh my, it was tough.  Yes, we have to remind ourselves this was a major change in our life, and time is needed to accept the change, heal and be mindful of what the future will hold.  I am so excited about my weight loss, I am in my 5th month already, can't even believe it.  I love that I can sit in a chair, and not be eating the chair with my a....!        I can cross my legs, and sit like a lady!!    

I again, just wanted to say Thank You from the bottom of my heart with all your prayers and suggestions last month, it really helped me a lot.  We are still working on a suit toward my husband's former employer and that will be a process.  He found another job within the week, and I have been promoted since, so good things come out of bad that is for sure!

So glad things are turning around for you. I've been wondering how you were doing. Keep it up!
