hi nichole thanks for putting me right about your name i have a sister in law called nicola so just looked and just thought you spelt it like that never looked properly sorry about that it is so funny how things are ment different in other places do you miss home and are you planing on going home in the future hope not as i dont really know you but you have given me so much encouragement about my op.

I bet your family really miss you and what do they think about your weight loss i dont know what made you come to britain but you must miss the sun from america my brother in law goes every year for 3 weeks and he would love to live there he takes his wife and daughters to disney world they all love it.

It has been the best thing i did coming onto the site as everyone as helped me so much as you can imagine my children didnt want me to have it done as we have heard so many horror storys about it they never really tell you about the success storys so thanks from me and my family and take care.

Hey Alison, I am planning a trip in February to visit my family in Oregon, don't really miss home just the people that make it home you know? My mother is very supportive of my surgery, as is all my family, though it killed her not to be able to tend to me (I am the baby of the family). I grew up in Florida which has sunshine to spare but I am very fair-skinned and freckle (Irish/Scottish heritage) so I didn't love it. Plus I was ALWAYS hot. So a couple of years after I got married I moved to Oregon that has weather much like England. I plan to visit Florida next September to see the other half of the family. I came here for my post-grad education and it has been top notch.

I am glad too that you have found us here, it is a great tool to learn more & make friends. I know I have made many here.

Take care.

I would love to stay in the UK, when I finish my PhD in a few years, I would like to teach at a university. My hubby and I love to travel and there is so much to see here. I am looking forward to feeling fit so we can take mini-holidays on a regular basis. The hubbs hasn't seen much of Europe so we have lots of plans. I am looking to bring my mum over here as well. She loves to travel and would be a good carer for any liitle babies in our future!
