Hi There. So far I have lost 51 lbs! Whoo Hooo!
I am on a different computer because I am having issues with mine, so I will post later!
See ya.
*OK so it's been a while since I have posted anything on my profile.
Today is: 8.10.2006. I have lost 35 pounds so far!! Now that I can eat stuff, I am not hungry anyway... LOL
I go back to work on Monday Aug. 14th. (will be 1 month since surgery).
I can’t wait until I can actually buy some NICE clothes!
Hopefully by Christmas I can get some new stuff!

Hello!! Well Monday I will get my staples out finally and I think I have one more week of the shakes....I went to the first support meeting at the hospital (Umass Univ. campus) and it was great. It is held the 4th Thursday of every month.
A couple of us went to Panara Bread afterwards, I had the low fat chicken noodle soup with no noodles (still on stage III ) and ice water.
That broth was GREAT!
I have so much going on in my life right now with my tenants moving and trying to find someone else to rent the apartment, and such....it is tough, but i will overcome !
**Thinking about buying a houseboat to live on, someday, instead of a LAND home....not sure **
**My dream is to find a man who will want to do some of the same things, be on the ocean and live a beautiful life together - still not sure if I wants kids now, I am going to be 37 in December! Oi Vay.
See ya....

Okay - I really want scrambled eggs....I hope it won't be too much longer, or I hope to eat SOON. Tired of the shakes, but feeling better today.
I had been depressed since the surgery, wondering what the hell I did to myself, but everyone tells me it gets better.
Just waiting.
I am tired, and I am sleeping finally - able to sleep on my side about 1 week 1/2 out.

I am a poet and I am entering a couple of my poems here:
I give thanks…
For when I am in pain
Your arms surround me.
For when I am distressed
peace will arise.
For when I am poor
I am rich in Your love.
For when I am down
Your strength picks me up.
For when I am lost
I have already found You.
For when I am in need
You show how to give.
For when I am imprisoned
I share of Your Word.
For when I have died
I will live.
…and rejoice in all circumstances
(Paul rejoices and shares the Word, while in prison)

next poem:
Houston to Boston
A short flight
from Houston to Boston.
Squares of farming fields
become a pattern, a quilt
of this beloved Earth.
The comfort of soft, beautiful clouds,
gently set my eyes to imagine love,
so passionate, so sweet.
The deep, blue sky
slowly smearing, as chalk on canvas,
to majestic purple, coral & burning fire.
Deep & dramatic, my heart screams
as strings on his guitar.
I am melting inside,
for his hands play music to my body.
Now the wind blows the clouds as
they enter the night sky.
A central sea mist blue,
sings the blues to my soul.
Breathe in me.
Fill me up.
Touch my lips with your skin
and enter my night on the
passion flight.

This poem I wrote on my way back from a missions trip in San Luis Potosi, MX. Amazing time, hope to go again someday soon!
I will write more later!

Hi everyone. OKAY <-- can I BE any more excited? It is getting close to my surgery date and I am starting a good walking plan, which will start tomorrow...and the water, well I am trying :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am in deep love with Diet Coke and I have to tell you, that is the hardest thing to live without, I think...but It will be done :-)
Well I will write more later... but I appreciate everyone's support and the wonderful stories!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You know something, it is extremely hard to imagine myself at ANY type of a normal weight.
I will work so hard at this, because this is my GIFT/ my TOOL given to create the new me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Any single men who are seeking companionship from someone who understands, someone looking for an amazing life of love, passion, music, nature, laughter, ocean, sky....if you understand where I am coming from, please email anytime...preferably in New England as I don't want to ever move from here (my family is here)
I am a poet, writer, lover of music, love nature so much i wish i lived in a tree! LOL.
I am a Christian woman - i love life and want to experience so much - but of course the weight has kept me 'still' for so many years, i feel as though i am a butterfly who has been holding a boulder on her wings and in a little while, Jesus will be lifting that boulder and crushing it into beautiful sparkly dust and watching me fly around the blue sky rejoicing for a freedom i only longed for in dreams......<--- okay, getting carried away, but you get it, right?
