Kaye's Monday Message

Hello Everyone!

This is an exciting week for five of our LivingAfterWLS community members. Rachal, Cherie, Angela, Meshell and Coleen will all begin their new lives with weight loss surgery. Please send some special warm thoughts to them.

To the readers in the Pre-OP phase I’m happy to say we have the LivingAfterWLS Pre-Ops page online – I hope you find the content there useful as you begin your journey. Be sure to read Andie Jamari’s article: “Courage to Face WLS.” I know you will be as inspired by her heartfelt story as I am.

Did you happen to read the Parade magazine in your Sunday newspaper yesterday? The topic: Heart health and raising healthy children with mindfulness toward teaching healthy habits that they may carry to adult life. For more information be sure to visit “Creating a Healthier Generation” sponsored by the American Heart Association/Clinton Foundation Alliance. I know those of us who grew up overweight and have undergone WLS are particularly sensitive to helping children avoid that which we have suffered.

I hope you all have a terrific week. Take a minute and review the Four Rules. Remember following these basic principals is the best thing you can do to keep your body chemistry balanced, to sustain your weight loss or weight maintenance and ensure your overall physical and mental health. You deserve to treat your body well and keep LivingAfterWLS.

Best wishes,
Kaye
