At exactly this time, two years ago today, I was going through the surgery that gave me back my life. I wrote a long post about it on my blog, but I'm just feeling so much happiness today, I just had to get on here and share it. No one else in the world can understand what I'm feeling right now as well as you all.
Thank you for all the love, support and information that you all have given me over these past two years. Thank you for being here.

My dear sweet special Goddess Lady Friend... Today is a special day & I am elated to share in your success with you. I have followed you with your blog - it feels like forever. I am having trouble with getting the right words out to best convey thoughts.
So instead I will express my feelings through the use of interpretive dance...

<---- You and I dancing together (in our burlap sacks because we are just fabulous like that

)!
Lady you rock. You inspire many, and are truly amazingly fabulous.
I love you you my friend - congrats on this milestone!

Thanks you guys! You're the best!!! I know that the coming year is really vital and will probably lay the foundation for how the rest of my life as a post wls person will go. I figure, this is the year to make sure that my diet and exercise habits are FIRMLY established. So, I need this neighborhood now more than I did even as a newbie. Thank goodness this place started up when it did: it sure has been a miracle in my life. I feel such a bond with you all!
hugs and "high fives" (For Stu!)
