You've come to the right place. Please don't think we like you any less, it just endears us to you more for being open and honest. Everyone benefits from it. PMS is such a b**ch. I'm not going to tell you all the benefits of the surgery, you know them, you mentioned them in your closing.

You said your marriage is on the rocks already. It's going to go one way or the other, why not go into the decision process with a new sense of self confidence. This surgery does give you that. We can talk more privately about this subject. Let's just say that I'm in a simular situation.

I was just like you Jenna. I didn't want to leave the house, but I had a job and I had to keep going, it forced me out of the house. On weekends or after work, I avoided all contact with people and places. I was so stressed if I knew I had to attend something or go the grocery store.

I can totally understand your stress about having to go out to find a job for which you believe you have no skills. Being overweight can reduce your confidence level to nothing. You can be in control of that by taking on-line classes, it's obvious you have computer skills.

I think going to talk to a professional is a great idea. If you ever want some one to listen, I'm here for you.

I'm praying for clarity.
