Good afternoon Denise!!! Congratulations on your surgery date! I have some Zen Wisdom for you - Nothing exists but momentarily...One thing flows into another...observe things as they are, let everything go as it goes. This is to put everything under control in its widest sense. --- May God keep you close to his side as you travel your new journey. You will have ups and downs. You can always turn to us, your AMOS family, we will give support, comfort and encouragement. You will find this will be the best thing you could ever have done for yourself as well as your family. I know that was true for me. Keep us posted when you reach the "other" side. I pray for a speedy and easy recovery for you. Don’t forget to update your profile at least monthly. We all like to see how we are doing!!! Make sure you take pictures. It’s great to see the new you emerge!!! Not to mention the look on YOUR face when you look at those pictures and compare them in a few months! It’ll be a BIG WOW!!! Please remember too, that this is a *tool* to use. Make sure you use it wisely. The first year it’s pretty easy, after that I’ve been hearing (I’m not speaking from experience as I’m not a year out yet) that it gets increasingly difficult. Choose the right foods and measurements wisely! Good luck and God Bless!!! RNY 10/31/03 down 114 pounds– I’M IN THE CENTURY CLUB!!!

On top of having an amazing supportive system, 5 wonderful kids, the self power to get rid af that prick when he did you wrong, and the love for your life and family........It sounds like you have done your homework on this surgery! Being a Mother you often leave yourself at the bottom of the importance list, as I always did. It is time to do something good for yourself. The first time I had energy to keep up with my little ones, I relized this surgery was a positve move for all of us. I wish you the best with your journey. Im here if you ever need anything. I think u are going to relize, maybe for the first time in a long time, you can be Denise Cortez here, and everyone will love you for you, and not give a damn about you weight. Take care sweetie!
