Dear Jeannie, I read your post on the Message board. I just wanted to let you know that what you're experiencing in completely normal! Also try to remember that you have to hit rock bottom before you can get back on the ladder...don't be too hard on yourself. There's plenty of people on this earth that just can't find it in themselves to take this extremely difficult path---you found the strength. Enjoy the 15 lbs that you put on! Revel in it! :-) It'll dissappear faster than it came on and you'll feel so proud of youself; these down times will only stick out in your mind as yet another reminder of WHY you did it in the first place! Good Luck to you!
JEANNIE I COULDN'T OF SAID IT BETTER THAN YOU DID. WAITING IS HELL MY FEET HURT EVERYDAY WHEN I GET OFF WORK AND MY CLOTHE'S ARE SHOT TOO JEANNIE I WON'T HAVE MY SURGERY UNTIL 9/11/02 AND I'M GOING CRAZIE, I WILL KEEP YOU IN MY PRAYER'S JUST KEEP THE FAITH IT WON'T BE LONG.
Hi Jeannie,While I was reading your profile I was thinking gee this could be me. I feel exactly the same way you do. My surgery date Is Aug 1 so we aren't too many days apart. Won't you be glad when it is all over and we are on the road to being healthier? Wanted to wish you well. Hope the surgery goes ok and you have a speedy recovery. God Bless and be with you.

Congratulations on your upcoming surgery, I know you are doing a happy dance, and probably some "NERVES", just know you are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope everything goes well and you are up and out and about real soon.
