My friend..... I'm so sorry for ur pain as a child...... U should not have gone thought that. It's so understandable why you went to food for comfort... I'm very proud of you for making the decision to change ur life, and now ur living a blessed life. I love u my friend.... Send my love to ur twin too.... My mom is a twin, and I understand ur connection. I hope she finds a way to follow u into a healthy living.
Oh Rosemary. I'm so happy for you and Connie. Happy for all of us. I have been trying to get my surgery since 1999. Finally My husband's job changed Insurance and it covered Obesity surgery. Wow. When I was approved in April I screamed and yelled so loud. I was so Happy. Surgery done 05/11/2011. I feel so much better. Love u and all of us New Beings doing things finally! Still have sciatica but feel better.
Tears fell from beginning to end! You two are just amazing, and living life is so beautiful, I thank God daily for giving me my life back! I wished I could get this done for my mother, oh what I would give to be able to tell her she could have this procedure done! I love you two and thank you for your many stories! ~Hugs~
@tonukinfutz4u74 if she also has no insurance and battling the same issues as connie did ...then have her send her story short story to the wlsfa...they are taken applications already..ok love ya and can't wait for one day to meet you my friend....love rosemary
Rosemary, Just watched this for the first time. Thank you and Connie for sharing your story with open hearts. I share in your excitement for Connie's new beginning and will be watching her progress with a cheer from the sidelines. Your love for one another is obvious...and beautiful. Excited for you BOTH!
I swear Connie and Rosemary have me in tears. Such a beautiful story with joy and pain. I congratulate Rosemary on her success and I can't wait until Connie is on her way to a healthier person! LOTS OF LOVE!
I had no idea of yours and your sisters story before today. I knew you were so active and helpful in the you tube wls world from your videos and comments, and started to keep up with Connie's journey, but this documentary was beyond words. Let me just say thank you, both of you, for being so candid. I was hysterically sobbing during this video. I am so moved by your story and it makes me honored to become apart of this amazing community of love and support!
I love this documentary. So glad you posted it. I grew up in the same culture =D Lots of love to both of you. I am so glad Connie got her wish and I keep both of you in my prayers. You are amazing Rosemary. Hugs, Rob

Thank you for sharing your story. It has brought out so much in me I can't hardly contain myself. It will happen for Connie one day and one step at a time. God Bless!!!
