Guest guest Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 Cherie, I am good. Just 10 more days until my surgery. I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and am on meds for that now and believe it or not I have eaten everything I have wanted and still did not loose weight. I am hoping that will help me a lot after I have the surgery to get the weight off. I am not sleeping as well as I should because I go to bed and think about the surgery. I have never been in the hospital so it is freaking me out a little. But over all I am good. No complaints. I am glad to hear that you are turning the corner. Everyone says that it does get better. But I know that is hard to hear when you are in the middle of being miserable. I am still praying for you.
