LisaMergs 2,854 Posted December 1, 2016 Thank you all so much... I've had unbelievable support here and attribute a good portion of my success to that. It is amazing when I consider that it is about exactly one year since my first appointment. One year. So many changes have happened, mostly good, some not so much, a thing or two kind of, well, sucky lol The most IMPORTANT thing I can say is this::: Value YOURSELF. Don't allow anyone else to cloud your perspective, judgement, or thoughts. Find your new YOU and embrace that person. Don't compromise your values, don't let go of your dreams and don't let anyone stand in your way or slow your progress or cause you to doubt yourself, your worth, or worthiness. People can be wonderful, and supportive, but there are also people who can be downright cruddy and not worthy of your time and/or thoughts. Just know that you are doing this for YOU--- and anyone who enhances your life that can enjoy your success with you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DeletedMember 715 Posted December 1, 2016 Way to go! If I remember correctly, we had our surgeries only a day or two a part so I have always enjoyed following your progress, not to mention you are a constant bastion of sanity in this place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
