Health Ticker

Saturday, February 20, 2010

Welcome!

People keep saying they want to keep up with my progress after this Lap Band Surgery, and I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted to post on Facebook, so I decided to start a Blog. Now most of you know, and if you didn't before, you do now, that I am not the most "tech" savvy, nor am I the best at keeping up on these types of things, so bear with me. In this Blog you may hear and be privy to some of my deepest thoughts and feelings. Some of these thoughts and feelings may not be pleasant as this process is so far, and from what I've heard, not a pleasant one. I'll do my best to keep in mind that not everyone works in the medical field and is as "jaded" as I am. I am planning on posting pictures of my progress, so please be kind, and remember that my appearance and my health are the reason's I am doing this. While these pictures may not be pleasant to the eye, they are meant for educational purposes only. As things progress, I may feel more comfortable with sharing these pictures with more people, but for now, only those that have been invited to view my blog will see them. Feel free to post comments, insights and suggestions. Remember, I am still very uncomfortable with myself, so if my reply or comment seems "off" it's me, not you, and it wasn't meant to be rude. In closing, I'd like to say THANKS for visiting.

  1. A blog is a great idea, Annette. I can see not wanting everyone you've ever said hi to keeping tabs on you :) So I appreciate the invite! I am very excited for you and it will be neat to get to see you on this journey both the good parts and the bad parts.

  2. Losing weight is no picnic. I went through my own journey a few years ago and now I'm working on strength and health. I'll be rooting you on!

  3. Thanks for letting me be part of this with you. I will cheer you on the best I can. I know you probably don't think I know what you are going through. I don't 100%, but, I do a little since, as you know, I too am struggling with my weight loss. I love you and admire you for taking this journey. Keep up the great work.
