Hi Everyone!! I am sitting here just remember where I was one year ago tonight...sitting on the potty...the memory of the fleet phospho-soda still is fresh in my mind LOL---one year ago tomorrow Dr. Valin wheeled me into the O.R. and changed my life forever!!! I went from a size 24 to a size 2/4 in the past year. I can't express how wonderful this surgery tool/gift has been to me. It's been absolutely amazing. I have taken my life back from the prison of obesity!! I sent 1st re-birthday greetings to everyone else on the surgery page of 11/16/01!! Thank you for all your support over the past year AMOS!! You have been so wonderful to me!! Have a Sparkling Day!! ~CAE~

Christine, I have a similiar history to you. How do you manage to deal with male attention now? This is my biggest fear as I begin to lose weight. I am terrified to get attention from the opposite sex. How do you handle it? Any suggestions would be helpful. I havn't lost enought to really attract attention yet, and find my self getting more scared as time goes on and the weight comes off.

Hi Christine, You are a beautiful person. you have to look out for #1 which is you. You don't need me telling you anything you already know. Take care and God bless you. You are in my thoughts and prayers. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}Love you Kathy
