Cassandra~
Weigh to go!! Congrats on being able to cross your legs!! My brother just said that to me yesterday, after not seeing me in a long time, "Hey, bet its' been a long time sense you could sit like that, huh?!" I said, Yep, and now it's my favorite way to sit (even though it's bad for circulation). Hey, anyways, just wanted to say Congratulations!
As you take your journey to the inner, and thinner you, remember:
The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance; but the Lord looks at the heart. 1 Samuel 16:7
For I am the LORD, you God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you. Isaiah 41:13
Don't tell GOD how big your storm is. Tell the storm how big your GOD is!
Those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:31
I have heard your prayers, I have seen your tears. Surely, I will heal you. 2 Kings 20:5
I’m hoping you have a successful surgery, a rapid recovery, and much success in your weight loss journey.
