Hi everyone....I am Stephanie from Harrisonburg, VA.  I have researched wls for a long, long, time, but twice it has been thwarted by one thing or another. I enjoy reading this board, and I am going to start my wls journey again.   I saw that show last night, on TNT...they said that the woman there consumed 6,000 calories in a day.  What they said, made me consciously watch my caloric intake today...OMG!!!! 2 waffles WITHOUT butter/margarine 240 calories. Any suggestions to begin my journey once again, please feel free....I am an open book.  Feel free to personally respond. I want to say a big hello, and thank you to Melinda....OMG, what an inspiration she has been to me all of these years....and you all look fantastic!!!!!!!! To the gal that has the issue with this board...with one person...all you can do is keep that person in prayer, and be extremely careful with your information.  Know that your feelings are totally valid, and shame on the person who did this to you.  I believe in God, and I have heard and know this to be true that "God doesn't like ugly" and the person who wronged you will get their just reward. Back to a more positive note, anyone care to contact me, I work mainly nights on the switchboard at Rockingham Memorial Hospital.....I dont believe I can give the number here. Sincerely, Stephanie
