Hello! I know it's been a while since I've posted. So much has happened this year it's not even funny. Currently DH is recovering from shoulder surgery, My middle son graduated May 20th from High school, my baby starts HS in a few weeks. I'm suppose to close on my little house I've had for 6yrs. I'll be glad to be done with that. Been car hunting, I'm getting a Jaguar, my dream car. I started online classes this summer, so far so good. Only 11 more classes til my degree. Woohoooo.......Weight is pretty much still maintaining. I've gained just a few lbs. (3-4) but I think that's due to meds I've been taking for my back. I've been doing alot of medical treatment for my neck, shoulder and now my back, all compliments of the car accident I had back in Jan. I'll be glad when that mess settles. It's always something........Anyway, all is good here. Hugs,Cathi

WOW, it has been a while since I've updated....How time flies. Well as you may know I got married in December, we snuck off and got married, so we had to do a little redo for the families. It was the 8th. Man what a Great time we ALL had! This weekend we are heading to Biloxi, MS because next week my hubby is having lasix eye surgery. So we leave the 15th, drive to Vicksburg, MS go to the casino, spend the night do a little sight seeing the next day, then head to MS. Monday is his eye appt, tues off to New Orleans to go to Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville, Wed is his eye surgery, thurs we'll lay low, then either Fri or sat we'll head to pensacola, FL and possibly spend a night there. So we're making it like a little honeymoon getaway. It should be a great time. Then they recheck his eyes on the 24th and off to home we go....Wooooooooo, I'll need to go back to work to rest! LOL ANNNND, my hubby made SMSGT....Thats Senior Master Seargent! He's looking at putting in papers for us to go to Germany! Oooooooh Yessssssssssssssss, that is where i was born. lol Annnnd I was 3yrs postop on the 10th!

Well here it is almost Christmas, it's hard to believe the month is almost over. Not to mention the new year is almost here as well....What a busy year 2007 has been. I hope that 08 is a little more slower. Well only 8 more days and I'll be a married woman, again. LOL This time is the real deal. Jeff is the greatest man I have ever met.......I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and a safe and happy new year.
Hugs

WOW, it's hard to believe it's almost December. So much has happened this past month. I was on the Star Jones show earlier this month. It was a very quick trip to NYC, but what time I had there was simply amazing! Star was so kind and friendly, it was like we'd  had known each other all our lives.....Thanksgiving was GREAT, Jeffs family was here, we celebrated his birthday and we did a little family Chrismtas. We are getting married on Christmas Eve this year. We're going to have a ceremony at a later date. It's all good!!!

WOW-I didnt realize I hadn't updated in over a month, sorry folks. lol Our cruise was wonderful, we had a really great time. Seven days in the Caribbean, what more could one ask for....It's hard to believe October is just about over. I'm getting ready for the holidays. Me and my fiances sister will be cooking Thanksgiving dinner at our house and his parents will be coming to dinner too, along with all of my kids. Woohooooo!!!! I'm putting our tree up early because his family does their Christmas at Thanksgiving since everyone is together at that time. We're going to really do the house up for his mom. I'm headed off for a fast trip to the Big Apple tonight, I'll be back late tomorrow night. I'll tell ya'll what I'm doing when I get back. LOL Have a great day! MOM

My Story

I am 19mos post op and have lost 117lbs. Having WLS is the BEST decision I have ever made. What else can I say?
I'm a 42yr old mother of 3 great boys. I have battled with my weight just about all of my life. My siblings were always smaller than me, but I just was never that lucky. I came to the conclusion back in Dec. 2004, after lots of research that Gastric Bypass was the only option for me. I had tried many a diets and prescription meds...Weight Watchers x2, phentramine x2, zenecal, slimfast, metabolife, You name it, I probably tried it. I can lose some of it, but then gain it all back with interest. unfortunately, the interest rate was always HIGH! March 10, 2005 was the first day of my new life......This is my story.
