Good luck to you - I had the same op on the 11th of June at BUPA Leeds - three months on I'm down 5 stone and things are terrific! You will come through this very well, and are in the hands of the best surgeon in the world!

Hey Kelly: It looks as though you're finally going to attain your dream and have this surgery! Congratulations! My thoughts and prayers will be with you during this time. Please keep us all posted as to how you're doing. I'm hoping to "cross over" in another 2 weeks. Good luck and lots of *HUGS* for a speedy recovery! Angie Bartholomay

Hi Kelly "Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, any one can start from now and make a brand new ending." "I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning." ~ J.B. Priestly "Each of us has an inner dream that we can unfold if we will just have the courage to admit what it is. And the faith to trust our own admission. The admitting is often very difficult." ~ Julia Cameron "The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak becomes a stepping-stone in the pathway of the strong. That block of granite is often nothing more than a decision." ~ Thomas Carlyle "Being yourself is not remaining what you were, or being satisfied with what you are. It is the point of departure." ~ Sydney Harris "Risk! Risk anything! Care no more for the opinion of others, for those voices. Do the hardest thing on earth for you. Act for yourself. Face the truth." ~ Katherine Mansfield "I am convinced that attitude is the key to success or failure in almost any of life's endeavors. Your attitude - your perspective, your outlook, how you feel about yourself, how you feel about other people - determines your priorities, your actions, your values. Your attitude determines how you interact with other people and how you interact with yourself." ~ Carolyn Warner "Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives." ~ Author Unknown "It's never too late to be what you might have been." ~ George Eliot "For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it." ~ Author Unknown May you always have an Angel by your side. Watching out for you in all the things you do. Reminding you to keep believing in brighter days.

Hi Kelly, I am assuming from your address that you are a military spouse, so I thought I'd send a note of encouragement since I am one as well! You are almost there! I hope you are getting excited, not worried or stressed! I think that this will be the best thing we have ever done for ourselves! I should be getting a call this week for surgery the beginning of October at Walter Reed. So we'll soon both be on the losing side! Take care, be happy! God Bless, Gerry Yaggi
