I am so thankful. You write with such appreciation for life and your weight loss journey with your husband.<br /><br />I have been playing around with my Lean For Life program for too long and recently managed to pull myself together again. LFL is Low Carb so your eating plan struck a chord. I'm now encouraged to get my work book out and do it right again.<br /><br />Congratulations on reaching goal weight and I do hope you are a winner in the Medifast competition.<br /><br />Blessings.MargieAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05591436464085450834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3913783848796329099.post-71647461271513053652011-04-07T17:34:34.753-06:002011-04-07T17:34:34.753-06:00good luck on your surgery!!!good luck on your surgery!!!Karlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16921999791351191824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3913783848796329099.post-21150350368313644872011-04-07T00:39:38.625-06:002011-04-07T00:39:38.625-06:00I know others that had that same surgery, and were...I know others that had that same surgery, and were so glad afterwards they did.

It sure has made me fatigued, but I'm coming out of it, after almost two weeks. <br /><br />I'm also going to go on the Medifast plan as soon as I receive the products. I have reached the point where I can't deal with handling food (preparation, as well as planning) all of the time. I've been doing the "lose 1/2 pound a week" for a couple of years now--I lose a pound and regain two. It's really getting to me, and I need to change things, at least for a while. I see this as a positive change, and that's how I will approach it. Your journey has inspired me, so thank you for that.<br /><br />Also, best of luck with the surgery. Take care...E.

It's so not easy at times though. I'm still having to learn to recognize the negatives for what they are and grab hold of the truth. It's an everyday walk.<br /><br />I had to laugh about the beef jerky...I can't handle that stuff either. Love, love, love it and could eat it everyday!!! <br /><br />I'll keep you in my prayers for your surgery. I love you freind.

The Lord is full of surprises and learning experiences the whole way through. Life is good, even when the challenges, the trials seem tough. Just lean on the Lord and he will see us through it all. Plus all our blogger buddies and real life friends and family. <br />Take care Margene and good luck with your surgery.
