Hi Dorothy, I just wanted to let you know that you have a great doctor that is going to take care of you. So dont worry about anything. It wont be long and you will be on the losing side. I had my surgery March 6th, not that long ago, I am still learning things everyday. At the two week mark I had lost nearly 18 lbs. I am kind of impatient, so of course I wanted it to be more but I guess that was okay. If I could do that every two weeks I will be happy. You take care, If you need to ask any questions, I will try to answer them. I dont live that far from you. I am in College Park. God Bless You

Congratulations on your surgery date! I have some Zen Wisdom for you - Nothing exists but momentarily...One thing flows into another...observe things as they are, let everything go as it goes. This is to put everything under control in its widest sense. --- May God keep you close to his side as you travel your new journey. You will have ups and downs. You can always turn to us, your AMOS family, we will give support, comfort and encouragement. You will find this will be the best thing you could ever have done for yourself as well as your family. I know that was true for me. Keep us posted when you reach the "other" side. I pray for a speedy and easy recovery for you. Don’t forget to update your profile at least monthly. We all like to see how we are doing!!! Make sure you take pictures. It’s great to see the new you emerge!!! Not to mention the look on YOUR face when you look at those pictures and compare them in a few months! It’ll be a BIG WOW!!! Please remember too, that this is a *tool* to use. Make sure you use it wisely. Choose the right foods and measurements wisely! Feel free to look at my profile and see my ups and downs and know I’d not change a thing with anything I’ve experienced. Everything was worth it! Good luck and God Bless!!! RNY 10/31/03 257/140 I’M AT GOAL!!!
