Hi Todd! We have spoken in the past on the millenium list! I had my surgery

on 12/9/99 - so we are surgery siblings!

Congratulations on a fabulous year! You are doing just great. I am having

some of the same issues - although my hubby loves the new me - I know that he

has expressed (kiddingly but not) some insecurities about how I look and

wondering if I will find someone better or different. We just have to be

patient and let them work through these things by showing them that we are

true to them and no one else.

I also regularly deal with " fat headedness " . I don't know how to combat it -

but I know it gets better with time. I feel the difference in the last

couple of months.

Welcome - good to hear from you.
