Almost August 2008
Jul 24, 2008
Hello All, So far this year has been kind of trying for me. My husband has a blood disease and had been told he only has 3-5 years to live. He has been in and out of the hospital almost every three -four weeks this entire year. Everyone say a special pray that our Lord Jesus will lay his healing hand on him and touch him. I am doing well and happy. Maintaining my 129 lb wt. loss and doing the best I can.
Being an olny child I also watch out for my parents. Both of them are in their mid 80's and they too keep me trotting back and forth as well. Other than my family, church, or work all my time is normally consumed.
With the help of Dr. DeWitt and My Heavenly Father above I have overcome most of my obesity and am leading a healthy, more productive life. Thank goodness for the knowledge that Dr. DeWitt has and the goodness of his heart to take me as a patient. Dr. DeWitt could see I had potential to become a better person both physically and mentally.
Happy Summer to all and keep in touch. I really enjoy hearing from others and I will surely give you some advice or help if you let me know you are in need of this old gal.

Hello Everyone, I haven't been writing much lately. My husband has been in and out of UAB in Birmingham lately or in the hospital where we live. He has a blood disease that is killing him. Doctors have given him 3-5 years. He is not doing well and we need your prayers please.
We have learned to take each day and make the very best of it we can. God is the master physician and I have faith in him to heal Wesley. My health is great and I thank my Doctor for his knoledge and the man above for all the amazing weight loss and health that I have now.
Write to me and tell me how your doing. God bless us all and have a good week. By the way my weight has been at a stand still and I thank goodness for that. I vary some each week a few pounds but when I see a weight gain I get back on track and relly buckle down to get the weight off. What about you? Talk to me and tell me what is going on with you.
Greetings from Alabama

We pray that our Lord an Savior will take charge of all this and touch his body. That is why I am asking you for all the prayers we can possibly get.
Write me if you have any questions or need any advice on your bypass. If I can help you I certainly will. God is good all the time and All the time, God is good.

Certainly hope and pray that you are doing well and that you are on the way to a goal you have set for yourself. I can tell you that it will make you feel so happy to meet a goal. If you are like me each pound that comes off just seems to keep you involved and insterested in staying on track to see more weight melting off your body. One thing for me that helped me was all the support I had from my family and friends. My friends gave me hand me down clothes and they were a BIG assett in my success. I started off as a 24\26 and a friend of mine gave me two 30 gallon trash bags of size 18 clothes..boy did I try on clothes a lot...i wanted to see how close I was to getting into them. It was amazing how it will make you feel when you can get into another size. When I got into a 20 I was amazed that finially I was on the way..........when i got to a 18 it was just hard to believe...then I changed more and was in a 16.....I have now got into some 14's. Thank you Lord for helping me along this path. Love to all..Tana

I do weight myself every day. I have been told that is not normal but it helps me to stay motivated.
I carefully watch what I eat and stay focused on myself.
I just thank God for being with me and walking with me threw all this. I know that without him in my life that several things could have went wrong. I am a Youth Minister and try to keep my Lord and Savior in my life at all times first.
Write to me if you need someone to talk to about your success or failure. I have good ears and can tell you what I have went threw and maybe what to expect in your case.
I am thankful for a loving and understanding husband and a wonderul family to support me as well. My friends all watch after me and keep me on tract too.
Have a great weekend,
Tana
