Thanks for your encouragement. Just got back from Houston were I was able to go to the Rodeo - an activity that would have been too stressful before weight loss. There may be problems and they are to be overcome but there is no question the benefits far outweigh the problems. Ed

I am sorry to hear that your surgery has been postponed. Do you have any idea when it might be re-scheduled? I hope that your issues are resolved soon. Thank you so much for sending me best wishes on my new journey. I too wish you the best and hope you too will be on the losing side soon.

Linda, thanks so much for your words of encouragement. I just started to read your surgery page noticed that I missed your OR date, March 1st! I hope things went well and you are recovering nicely. Congratulations on your cross to the weight loss side - looking forward to joining you there on Monday, March 6th!

Linda thank you so much for your encouragement. It is so nice to have found this website and to know that I am not alone in this journey. Do you have a date yet? Please keep us posted. Prayers are being sent your way for an easy and uneventful surgery. I am now 8 days post op and I am so glad that I did it. I know it is going to be a long road but well worth it!!!

Hello Linda, I just wanted to say congratulations on your decision to have weight loss surgery. I see that your date is just around the corner and we can’t wait to welcome you to the other side. As you start to lose the pounds you are going to feel so much better and your energy level will just grow. In just a few short months you’ll be able to do things you never thought possible. The little things will get so much easier, like tying your shoes. I know, I had RNY Gastric Bypass in August of 2004, and I’ve lost 130 lbs. Now the surgery and the change in lifestyle are not walks in the park. That’s why I go to support group meetings and belong to online WLS discussion groups like http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/WLBSS/ . And I check out websites like Obesity Help and http://wlbss.com for support and information. WLBSS stands for Weight Loss Bariatric Surgery Support, and you should take advantage of all the support you can get. Get all your questions answered by experienced losers who are now winners. From the Girth, a Rising Phoenix, a Bariatric Butterfly, that soon will be you. Congrats and good luck. We’re all right behind you and with you as you start to change your life. Take Care, Bill Johnson-Miles
