Fall is in the air…and there are so many things we want and need to get done before the cold weather sets in.

Many of us have a very busy life with family and work activities...and we find it very hard to fit in any time just for yourself.

It is very important to spend a little "me" time sometimes.  It doesn't matter what you like to do...take a walk, sit on the couch and read a good book or magazine, knit, get a pedicure...anything to just clear the cobwebs so your mind is free of some of the stresses of everyday life.

I recently joined a support group of sorts at my church.  There are six to eight of us that meet  three to four times a week and just mentor each other.  It is awesome.  When I first met some of these women, I thought why would God be bringing us together...what a strange group...we now call ourselves The Fruit Directory.  I feel so much better after I have been with this group of special ladies...even if it's just a quick e-mail note.

If you are a newbie -op or pre-op your body is still adjusting to many changes.  Remember that you not only have to exercise your body but your brain as well.  Just make sure you keep exercise in your life daily.  Not only does it help to maintain our weight loss, but it is a sure fit for all around health. 

Enjoy Life and May God Continue His Blessings on You!!
