You are doing high protein...so it isn't called " ATkins " , and so you have to eat stuff not on ATkins....you have been here all along and we are DELIGHTED that you have found a way to get healthy and happy!!!

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2001 Report Share Posted January 6, 2001 Yeah - and anyway some of us still even stay on the list while we aren't doing any kind of dieting at all anymore.....we may eventually get back to it, but even during our massive increases, we are still on the list!

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2001 Report Share Posted January 6, 2001 , it doesn't matter how you lose the weight, it's the fact that you're doing it and making yourself healthier and happier. That inspires everyone else to stick to their plan. Keep up the good work, Jayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2001 Report Share Posted January 8, 2001 - Don't ever feel intimidated or leery of posting your weight loss. Personally, I admire you for going through with the surgery. My doctor won't even discuss it with me; and I know I still have concerns (yeah, I'm a chicken). Keep posting your success! Several months ago, Lyssa posted to the list about her surgery and it gave us a small glimpse of her new life. She did not intend to send the email to the list, but rather to a personal friend. I have reread that email 100s of times. You guys are truly our inspiration. Susie __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2002 Report Share Posted February 5, 2002 Dear Group, You have been an incredible source of moral support and given me a wealth of information that was crucial to my decision making. I had a myo 2 mos ago and don't know how I would have gone through the past 6 mos without this group.And Carla, you are an inspiration. Your posts are so smart and you guide this group so smoothly. I'm very impressed by all you have done for women and find myself often thankful that you are out there fighting the good fight. Thank you. I have now decided to unsubscribe for a while. I need to take a break and allow myself to experience the feeling of being without fibroids and give the rest of my life the extra attention. I've been feeling disheartened that so many women experience regrowth after myos and find that whenever I read a regrowth post I get depressed. I need to take a breath and just enjoy this stretch without fibroids, and stop thinking about them so much. I will resubscribe to let people know if and when I conceive, as that's my goal! Thank you all! Carol H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2002 Report Share Posted September 29, 2002 Hi Dolores: You are one 'special woman' and the world is a better place because of people like you. I have found out that there are a lot of kind and considerate people when they see you have a disability. (Mind you there are some real jerks also-but I think the good out-weigh the bad!) Thank you for the report on Chuck. I, for one would be more than happy to send him greetings over the holidays. I hope there is something they can do for his neck to make him more comfortable. It is a beautiful Fall day here in Thunder Bay (my favorite season of the year (such a shame Fall is so short) so I will make this a short note as I want to get outside to enjoy the day. Take care and thank you for being such a caring person. Jo! : ) thank you > Dear Friends, > I spoke with Chuck's nurse on Saturday.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2002 Report Share Posted September 29, 2002 Aw, shucks. You are making me blush. Thank you, again, for your support. I'll be posting a reminder as the holidays approach, for cards for Chuck. CT is just gorgeous today, too. It is about 70 degrees, blue sky, and the leaves are just beginning to show color. Tomorrow is supposed to be more of the same. I'll be traveling West to speak at a senior center to seniors and lymphedema ladies about controlling sodium intake. That is such a pretty part of the state. It should be a nice ride. Dolores thank you > > > > Dear Friends, > > I spoke with Chuck's nurse on Saturday.
