Well, it’s official! You’re on the losing side. The trumpets are blaring, the cymbals are crashing and the drums are drumming – all for YOU! I hope that all went well for you! You’ve been out of surgery now for a little over a month – YIPPIE!!! Your journey will have moments to “pause” – I’d like to impart some words of wisdom for when it does occur - remember these wise words whispered by Confucius – “It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.” Be patient. You didn’t put it on over night, it won’t come off over night (DARN IT!)…Don’t forget to update your profile at least monthly and take lots of pictures…the transformations will make your jaw drop!!! RNY 10/31/03 – down 100 pounds TODAY AND AN OFFICIAL MEMBER OF THE CENTURY CLUB!!! Good luck!

Hi Christie, Well it's been 24 hours since you had your surgery. I will be having my surgery May 5th in Dallas, TX. We are not far from each other, I acutally live 2.5 hours north of The Woodlands. My brother n law and sister n law live in Spring! I love Old Town Spring! Anyway, I am thinking of you and hope all is well. I pray that you will have a swift recovery. Just remember to follow the Dr.s orders to a T. Remember this surgery is a tool. It might get rough but it will get better. May God be with you, Carmen

Remember that we’re all family here and we’re here to give you our support, lend an ear and not judge. I just wanted you to know that I was thinking about you today and that you are in my thoughts and prayers for a successful, problem-free surgery and recovery. I’m so happy for you.
