Topic: Weekend Update!
Where is everyone this weekend? No one has posted so I'm assuming that you've all had a great time so share, pleze? Mine was pretty quiet, sitting at home recouping still from surgery. I did cook supper for the first time in a week for the family and unloaded/loaded the dishwasher. Still can't lift anything heavy so that means, no vacing, laundry, etc. for a couple more weeks. Wahoo!!! That means I can write and draw more for a few days!
Anyhow, hope y'all had a great one!

Thanks girls! It's SO nice to know I'm not along and NOT crazy like I feel! Wonder if these problems are going to be around in 5 or 10 years, or if we'll all get used to them by then? I've been focusing on the immediate time instead of future time, so it's hard to imagine what I'll be doing and feeling years from now. I just know I'll still be skinny!!!
Thanks for all your advice and kind words, they really mean a lot!

Rebecca you do look so amazing. If you like to shop go yard sailing. I have found
great deals and spend very little. Its nice to plan our a Friday morning. Its sad that we all struggle with the same demands. Don't let them get the best of you. Go see your doctor or call your surgeon and see if they have a post op group that deals with this. A little medical help at times isn't bad. I've done it.
Good Luck

I'm always tired especially around PMS time. I take my vitamins and iron, too. Some days I don't get anything at all done. Hoping once this hernia surgery heals that exercise will help the energy levels go up!

You're looking mighty good! Congratulations. Sorry about the dumping part. I prayed and prayed that sugar would make me dump but alas I'm one of those who hardly ever dumps on anything. I was bad today and ate two Oreo Double Stuff Cookies and a handful of regular chips. Regular ice cream is the only food that makes me feel lousey. Fat free ice cream doesn't bother me so I don't have to miss out on my all time favorite ff ice cream sandwiches.
As for wishing for TT, I've had enough major surgeries over the last year to last me a lifetime so my batwings and saggy legs will stay with me forever if exercise doesn't take them away. Thankfully my weight was distributed over my whole body so after losing 80+ pounds I don't have a terrible hanging skin problem. When my surgeon did my hernia surgery this last Friday he gave me a mini tummy tuck which is good enough for me!
Prayers are sent your way for you and your family members who are about to start their journey to the losing side of life! Keep us posted on their progress!

Hey, Rebecca! You are looking great on your journey. Don't sweat the occasional double eating stuff. Your body might need the extra nutrition on those days. Today was a "wanna eat everything in sight day" for me, but my body just dumped 7 pounds off somewhere along the way. I figure my body is needing some kind of nutrition or extra vitamins. I'm amazed that I can go days without losing a pound then all of a sudden overnight I'm down 5 - 10 pounds! As long as you're still losing (if you still have some to lose) or maintaining if your at your goal weight, then you must be eating the right amounts of food for your body.

Thanks Vickie, I want plastics bad but you know with spandex and Lycra I can cover everything up. Winter is coming so maybe next spring we will see if insurance will pick up anything. I hope they will do the TT. Take Care and you look wonderful.

Way to go Jeanne, You have done great, I peeked at your profile. My skin on my stomach also makes a noise. It slaps. So now that I jog I count my steps and now this slapping thing is messing me up. Drives me crazy.
