Thanks Deb,

Deb,

I want to repeat part of your message . . .

"I know the Lord has led me to this time and place in my healing, and I know He wants all of us to be healthy and to enjoy life. He will lead you if you will ask, and provide a way for you to regain the precious gift of health in your life. The ladies here are awesome with support and prayers. We are blessed to have them all and share in their wisdom. I'll add a prayer for you too!"

I know not everyone here has a personal relationship with the Lord . . . Regardless, I'm convinced He will help ALL who asks . . . And that establishing, or renewing, a spirital relationship with God is a very important part of healing.

It's hard to put into words - but if one will open one's self to God's Love . . . they will experience it in all it's abundance.

God Bless,

Rogene

Thanks Deb, that is nice of you to say...Sometimes even after a year and a half I forget...But it doesn't usually take me long to remember the times I couldn't swallow my own salvia or having to sleep sitting up because I was to tight or the many times I've Pbing after eating to much...Jim has yet to have this experience but once he gets his 1st fill he'll soon learn some of it... It has been and still is an amazing journey...I'm honored to be apart of it especially with such wonderful folks like ya'll... I'm sure once Jim is 100% well he'll be hell on wheels...LOL...I'm ready! How are you doing? Are you at goal? I went from 138 to 143 and seem to be maintaining but I want to get back into the 130's...I'm not sure I need a fill but I do plan on getting a slight one in the near future...Then I'll soon learn if I needed it because it won't sit well with me if I'm to

tight...To bad we don't have a fuel gauage to tell us when we are getting low on saline...LOL hmmmm something might can be invented here ... Hope you have a good day...ttyl, RenaDeb <horseigot@...> wrote: Way to go Rena~~~Boot Camp Queen~~~ To Funny~ Poor Jim...I was laughing so hard. Nothing like a reality check withthe weight of a whole bag of tatters to realize the weightis gone and you are so proud of him. It is a journey and boy,it does have it's ups and downs. When we get to goal,

we doforget the way it was, but what a wonderful road we are all onand may it never end. Your insite here is so appreciated. Tothe new folks, which need to read this. yeah you go Rena~>> Hi Everyone,> > My husband is driving me nuts...LOL...Just kidding...He weighed yesterday and is down 13-1/2 pounds in 3 weeks...That is great, right? Well he was dissapoointed that it wasn't more...I keep telling him any weight loss right now is a bonus, the real weight loss will kick in when he gets his 1st fill...> > So, I felt like I needed to teach him a lesson...Make him proud of that 13-1/2 pounds...We were driving home on the interstate when he 1st admitted he was dissapointed and I was speechless...I told him, "Your

crazy!!!, 13-1/2 pounds is awsome!"...We were about to pass a Wal-Mart when I told him, "Get off, I want to show you something in Wal-Mart". We entered the store and I went staight to the 5 and 10lb bag of potatoes and picked them up and handed them to Jim...He went to put them in my basket and I said, "No, you carry them" He's like, "No, I'm not carrying these all around the store" guess who won? I did...I shoved my buggy away, grabbed my purse and took off with him trailing behind...After one isle he said, "ok, you've made your point" I said, "I don't think so" and made him carry them all over the store...LOL...I finally told him, "Now, put them down" and he said, "your right, you don't realize the weight you carry until you lose it and then carry it again"...> > He thanked me and said he felt much better about his weight loss...> > Jim doesn't remember my journey that well...He thinks I

woke up and the weight magically dissappeared...Well I had to poke a hole in that balloon...It wasn't that easy...I reminded him of many things that happened to me along the way...> > I guess to him I looked like I was having fun, losing weight, buying new clothes, eating pretty much what he ate, smiling, laughing, having a good ole time...I had it good...Or so he thought...I admit I've had it pretty easy but it also takes work...He is learning...> > I was so much better informed than he is or was...I like to know what I'm in for before I do something, he just ran head 1st into it...But I'll teach him since he doesn't get online and learn it himself...> > I can tell you, I've never suggested to him that he should get the band, it was all his idea...I'm glad he did...He'll learn it one way or another...> > ttyl, Rena > > > > >
