Good MORNING!!!! - and a Happy TWO YEAR Re-birthday to you!!! I found this quote and just love it! When running up a hill, it’s alright to give up as many times as you wish – as long as your feet keep moving. By - Shoma Morita M.D. I can only imagine that your experience has been wonderful. Full of changes and new experiences. I can hardly wait to see what I look like and feel like one year out!!! Congratulations to YOU!!! If you have an opportunity and/or haven’t already, please stop by and update your profile! We’d all love to know how well you’ve progressed!!! If you have a few moments, please take the time to send well wishes to your fellow “re-birthday” buddies!!! It’s a great boost to them as well as yourself. Have a FANTASTIC DAY!

Marie, Hi my name is Julie and I'm just starting the process for RNY LAP [hopefully]. I see my surgeon on Feb 17th. I read your profile today and I'm sorry to here you had some scares and complications. I'm 35yrs old and weigh about 354lbs and have a very similar body shape as you. Your photos are great! I live in Oconomowoc, WI and I'm married to my husband Jeff. We have no children because of my infertility do to Polycystic ovarian syndrome and its exacerbated by my weight. I'm so glad you had the courage and resolve to battle the ins. co. and that you have been so successful. Thank you for your honesty and contribution. I still feel scared but I'm ready to get my life back. To be able to enjoy things again like I used to when I was younger and not overweight. I'll keep an eye on your site and when I get my own computer hook up I'll drop you a line. I have to use my moms computer internet hookup till we can afford a new computer. Ours is too old and we need a new one to handle the internet. Drop you line soon. Julz

Hi Marie "Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, any one can start from now and make a brand new ending." "Each of us has an inner dream that we can unfold if we will just have the courage to admit what it is. And the faith to trust our own admission. The admitting is often very difficult." ~ Julia Cameron "The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak becomes a stepping-stone in the pathway of the strong. That block of granite is often nothing more than a decision." ~ Thomas Carlyle "Being yourself is not remaining what you were, or being satisfied with what you are. It is the point of departure." ~ Sydney Harris It's never too late to be what you might have been. ~ George Eliot May you always have an Angel by your side. Watching out for you in all the things you do. Reminding you to keep believing in brighter days.
