Hello Christi - Your second chance to "live" life again is almost here, <b>Congratulations!!!!</b> My prayers and best wishes are with you as you take the first steps down the path to a healthier and thinner you. My second chance was almost 9 months ago, I've lost 150lbs - only 50 more to goal!!! I look forward to reading the "updates" to your profile as your journey progresses. Dont forget to walk, walk, WALK right after surgery, no matter how tired you are......AND get your protein and water in daily, lots and lots of both, your health depends on it. Know that you are not alone, there are MANY of us that will have you in our thoughts and prayers on your very special day. <i>"To grow, you must be willing to let your present and future be totally <u>unlike</u> your past. Your history is not your destiny."</i> .....Hugs and Smiles : )
