Well, things are going well.  I'm experiencing a little day to day fluctuation in my weight and probably shouldn't be weighing myself daily but am now officially down 50 lbs since August (35 since surgery in Nov.).  I get a lot of comments from people at work and church and can't wait to see my family in January to see if they can tell a difference since Thanksgiving.  The weather has been miserable but it gets me outside once a day (if not twice) to use the snowblower and clear the driveway and sidewalks (which is good for the core muscles)!  I'm down from size 28 jeans to 22 and down to 20 in some dress pants.  It's amazing to be able to move quickly up 2 flights of stairs and not feel like I need a rest! I'm still a little chicken about trying new foods but need to because I'm getting bored with what I eat...need to spice it up a little.  I'm also struggling with constipation but I think that's normal.  Holiday Blessings to All!
