Hello Tonya, I just wanted to say congratulations on your weight loss surgery and welcome to the other side. As you lose the pounds you are going to feel so much better and your energy level will just grow. In just a few short months you’ll be able to do things you never thought possible. The little things will get so much easier, like tying your shoes. I know, I had RNY Gastric Bypass in August of 2004, and I’ve lost 130 lbs. Now the surgery and the change in lifestyle are not walks in the park. That’s why I go to support group meetings and belong to online WLS discussion groups like http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/WLBSS/ . And I check out websites like Obesity Help and http://wlbss.com for support and information. WLBSS stands for Weight Loss Bariatric Surgery Support, and you should take advantage of all the support you can get. Get all your questions answered by experienced losers who are now winners. From the Girth, a Rising Phoenix, a Bariatric Butterfly, that soon will be you. Congrats and good luck. We’re all right behind you and with you as you start to change your life. Take Care, Bill Johnson-Miles

May the Lord plant a hedge of angels around you and give you an uneventful surgery. I am praying for you. “I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears; Surely, I will heal you.” (2 Kings 20:5)

Lots of good luck with your surgery Tonya. I will be thinking of you on the 24th. I remember what it was like being in your shoes---hang in there---the best is yet to come. I had surgery at Penna Hospital in November, 2004. I have lost 135 pounds, now wear size 8, and have maintained my weight loss for 4 months now. Ready to start the plastic surgery thing now! Remember, say a prayer before going in, and then say another one when its over....its all in God's hands anyway! God bless you and take care. If you want to talk when you're home, e-mail me.
