Good MORNING fellow October BABY!!!! - and an early Happy ONE YEAR Re-birthday to you!!! I’ll be in sunny Las Vegas for a week so I wanted to send you early salutations! 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. 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. I'd also like to invite you to participate in the October 2003 message board. We do have activity and enjoy hearing from our peers! Have a FANTASTIC DAY!

Hi Patricia, sorry you're feeling bad. I know how it is. I thought I was never going to feel good again for a few weeks. But it does get better. I promise. Just keep all the fluids down that you possibly can and walk as much as you can. You'll be surprised when the energy comes back. Best wishes, Major hugs,

Hi Patricia, hang in there and be strong. the pain is temporary, and then you find yourself shrinking like an ice cube in hot water! It's no easy, but nothing truly worthwhile is. I am 5 months post-op and had regrets too, I messed up my back fron the hosptal gurneys and everything just hurt. then one day I woke up and the pain was mostly gone. that will be you soon and you can just rejoice in the positive changes that will coe into being. You have changed your life for the better and that is sure gonna shake up your body until things heal. be strong and believe that you did the right thing! you are not alone and are strong enough to endure this, or you wouldn't have made it this far. you can email me anytime and I'll try to reply asap. I've been right where you are, and not even that long ago, and can utterly say it was worth it every ouch and owie! big hugs and healing thoughts, Colleen (5 months post-op -101 lbs)
