You may want to check into your local YMCA, they are cheaper than gyms and have just about everything you need.

You are doing great with your surgery. Things will get much better. I am almost 3 months out (Next week will be 3 months) and I have lost 71 pounds so far. I started out at 329. I am now down to 258. Started in a size 32. I am now a size 24!!!! You will have fabulous results. It seemed like once I hit 6 weeks it got a whole lot easier. I do not feel deprived anymore, no more head hunger, and I don't even crave the food I am not supposed to have. I feel like I eat anything I want (except sugar, high fats and high carbs...I just dont want any of it). The weight is just melting off of me, and it will do the same for you. This surgery will make your life so much more enjoyable and you will have so much more energy....Good Luck, and congratulations on the start of your "New" life!!

You go girl! I am so proud of you. I know from your posts of how you were unsure about having the surgery. I know you also had problems with smoking. Well, I smoked until the day before surgery and since surgery I am smoke free!! It's now been a month and I don't crave it or want it! It's gonna be rough for a few weeks but it gets better. Good luck to you and keep us updated!!

I hope that you are doing well. I know the next few days are going to be tough, but you will be alright. I am so happy you have made it through the long pre-op journey, that is the hardest part. :-) Good Luck to you and if you need anything I'm always here. Congratulations!

Last post before I cross over to the losing side. In a few hours we will leave for Oxford, due to the "PREP" thing and a 2 1/2 hour drive, I will need to stay in a motel tonight. Should be at the hospital Monday morning @ 5:45 and I'm first. yeepie I just seem so calm, it's sorta like peaceful yet floating. I think they really gave me some time released stuff Tues in the hospital to keep me calm until Monday....lol OH BY THE WAY I WAS IN TUNICA ABOUT 20 MINUTES THURSDAY NIGHT BEFORE I WON $1,000.00. another yeepie Really dreading the prep tomorrow! I think I dread it more than the surgery. I've spent time with my family this week and took my kids for a milkshake tonight. Whatever God has in store for me I will be ready. I hope and pray for a speedy recovery. I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for all you kind and thoughtful people. I have one of the best Angels in the world and haven't even got to talk to her on the phone -----DEBBIE M thanks so much. My new friends Terri Clark, Maureen Spence and Phyllis Killen are so precious and special to me. I look forward to talking to yall real soon. AND I CAN"T FORGET JOHNNY, he sent me that darn goat to take care of when he had surgery and now I've sent it back to him....lol Johnny you better be good to our goat! Thanks to everyone for the kind post and emails. I will try to respond to each one after surgery. I look forward to return to yall by the 4th of July. {{{{HUGS & LOVE}}}}} Lesa
