Smile Difficult Decisions

I am writing this message, so that those of you who know me from this forum, will understand why I have become less active here.
As some of you know...I have cancelled my WLS. I'm chicken.
Every day, new people join this forum, who are on the WLS journey. You need each other's feedback & support.
Every time I come here, I waver over my decision to postpone my surgery. I need time to step back, take a deep breath & think about how I am going to live a more healthly life.
If I change my mind & decide to go ahead with the surgery...I will be back, full time, with bells on.
I love all of you...your wit, your courage & the way you offer support to your WLS brothers & sisters.
God Bless All of You
((((Hugs))))

Lei,

You KNOW how I feel about you and will miss your wit and humor, but I totally understand how you feel. Know that I'll be sending great karma your way and hope that you will let us know how you are doing occasionally! Take care of yourself, woman! *hugs*!

Thumbs up Changed My Mind

Emmy...Dale,
I can't stay away from my WLS family.
I was wrong when I thought that coming here would stress me out.
Trying to stay away was REALLY STRESSING ME OUT.
I have come to care about you & think of you as my virtual family.
Your support is important to me. I care about your lives.
I will add my 2 cents when it's relevent.
We live & learn.
