Ela,

I'm so glad to hear that your mother is recovering from her surgery....and , wow! she's been following the program since the 70's...now that's commitment. I have a friend who's been following this WOE for 5 years...and, I thought that was awesome!

Congratulations on your 10 pounds... keep up the good work

Hi, Ela. Thanks for posting that -- it's a sobering story to read, yet a happy one, too. I'm glad your mother is recovering, and glad that you've had a wake up call.

Congratulations on the ten pounds (and a cheer for your Mom)

I look forward to reading more success stories from you

Your story is a real inspiration!
Your right...now is the time to get healthy !
I'm having to get myself by the bootstraps and do the same thing!
We just have to keep our minds focused on the reward of getting to live longer and happier (and healthier)....
Lots of Luck !!!

OMG that statement struck a cord with me, WOW powerful!

So glad your mother's recovering, you are right she had a lot done, what an inspiration she is to not only you, but to all of entering this WOL.
