Good MORNING!!!! - and a Happy ONE YEAR Re-birthday to you (tomorrow)!!! I found this quote and just love it! When running up a hill, it’s alright to give up as many times as you wish – as long as your feet keep moving. By - Shoma Morita M.D. I can only imagine that your experience has been wonderful. Full of changes and new experiences. I can hardly wait to see what I look like and feel like one year out!!! Congratulations to YOU!!! If you have an opportunity and/or haven’t already, please stop by and update your profile! We’d all love to know how well you’ve progressed!!! If you have a few moments, please take the time to send well wishes to your fellow “re-birthday” buddies!!! It’s a great boost to them as well as yourself. Have a FANTASTIC DAY!

09-09-04 It's nearly been a year since my surgery, for the most part things are going well, no major complications, save one.. In the last four months I've gained 8 pounds. HELP!! I don't want to go back to the way I was. What am I doing wrong, what can I do to change it?

Jennifer may this journey bring you greater health and healing.. God is so good and I pray that he watches over you and brings you through to the other side without harm... Continue to look up when all you want to do is give up .. He will be there for you for he said I will never leave you nor forsake you.. Hugs

Met with Dr. Brieling today. Other then him being 45 minutes late to the appointment, due to reasons beyond his control, it was good. He was very informative and explained things well. Have another appointment on June 2.

Jennifer... God bless you & keep you as you make your way in your journey! :-)

I have scheduled an appointment with Dr. Brieling for May 21st. Will post more after that appointment..P.S. I have also been thinking of talking to a surgeon at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clincs, because they do lap.

I got some very bad news this morning.. As of June 1st Bariatric Treatment Centers are no longer accepting Blue Cross Blue Shield Insurance.. Which, is what I carry.. Hopefully, I can get surgery done in May. If not, it's back to square one with another surgeon. Anyone know what's up with BC/BC and BTC?

I'm sorry to hear you had to cancel your surgery. You probably did the wise thing instead of taking a chance. At least waiting will give the air time to clear out those nasty viruses. Be sure to keep us updated!
