That would be great news for many of us but yet you are right everyone is different. Fingers crossed!

I know after the years of gaining wait I noticed my nose got bigger. Lol. Seriously, I do hope it shrinks a bit along with weight loss. Anybody?

She thought it was time to find Bennie so she can

Good luck .... You are on to the other part of the journey!

Based on talent the one thing she can do

I am wondering if exercise might help even a 15 min walk to release endorphins that helps us feel better. Even just sitting out in the sun helps a great deal. You can reflect on things while outside. Listening your favorite songs could help the mood. Just saying...

But was all an illusion all because Bennie had powers to

she was delighted to see the beetle and asked what his name was

. You had me laughing! Yup it's all true!!

I am knocking 50 next month! A new beginning for me as well. We will be gorgeous! Still in preop but I am getting very close. 3 appts in the 30th and I see a surgeon ????

Everybody has established a lot of things that I will not miss. •My car is low so I will not miss sliding out like snake to get out. •The pain I endure going food shopping cause my knees are shot. •Will not missed carrying the laundry to the basement like a 90 year old! •Will not miss spending more $ on plus sized clothes only because it has more material like Lands End and LLBean This can go on but I do miss my baths. Bending of knees and trying to get out had made impossible !!

She got up again and started skipping along to find

So she decided to

So she decided to

The most beautiful

Magical land and

The tugging of shirts.. Ughh!

Just breathe and remember why you are doing this! Best wishes!

I agree with you! I love chugging water. Oh boy!

. Thank you for the crystal ball predictions ! Like you, I have degenerative hip disease so that means it will be down the road. If I lose 150 lbs ( half of me) the weight certainly be off the hip joints which mean I may not have worry about that. Also I have disc problem and that too I hope it will be relieved as well. Certainly the knees needs work. It really sucks and so painful ! You know the feeling ! I am excited to go into a new chapter in my life. Thanks again for your feedback. I appreciate it!

I was not sure if it was the best for me. 2004 10 years ago an ortho surgeon suggested I look into bariatric surgery with Dr. Kelly. At the the time there was not many choices to be made back then. Since I have lots of exposure in the Operating room caused more fears. So I held off and many years later I joined the behavior track rather than the surgical track. Still scared but up till now my co-morbities caught up with me that my knees need replacing!! So I now have no choice but to do this surgery so I can do the knee surgery. Been out of work since April. I wished I had this done ten years ago! It would saved me a lot of headaches! I feel more confident now than before cause I know it's more prevalent now than ever before. So now with all this I have a chance to recover and get back on track with my life!

Layknee I know what you are saying about working in the OR and seeing everything! I am a senior tech in SPD and often have to go in the room at times so I have the same fears. Thankfully I will not have surgery in my OR, I'll be on another campus!

You are making the right step to a healthier you! My step daughter lives in Norway in Kristiansund ! I bet you know where that is since it's on the western coast. I have not been there but will like to do some day. My husband has been there many years ago visiting his daughter. I have not had the surgery yet but will soon. Trying to decide a gastric bypass or the sleeve. Good luck on your journey! Lisa
