Please look me up in Facebook or MySpace. I tend to me more active there.

I haven't been online in a very long while. I am sorry. I now weigh 192 lbs and I feel fantastic! I take my vitamins every day.

For those looking into WLS (weight loss surgery) ...

This morning DH, DD and I took Fargo the wonderdog to Central Bark so he could go run with his peeps.

Not Being Recognized

Mon, 10 Nov 2008 18:59:00 -0800

I have worked for the same medical group for 16 years and at the same site for 5 years. There are hundreds (thousands?) of women whose mammograms I do year after year.

Some patients prefer I not do their mammogram. That is fine. A note is written and I pass ...

According to Weight Commander, the best weight log software out there, I have lost a whopping .08 lbs in the past 7 days.

For WEEKS I had been dropping over 3 lbs a week.

It is definately time for a stall. My first stall was 3 weeks post-op, which I ...

That is FIFTY NINE FRIKKING POUNDS never NEVER to return!

Thank you very much.

Saw Dr. Paya today.

The nutritionist assigned to me was ill, so they asked if I would reschedule. I told them no. My labs were already in and they were stellar, so I figure I am doing a good job. Dr. Paya was not concerned.

My sugars are normal. My ...
