Isn't it great Kam! God bless you, Annette

The day before my surgery, I took several body measurements. After many tried and failed weight loss attempts, I have learned that sometimes the scale is not always the best way to keep encouraged. When I look at the fact that I have lost over 9 inches off my waist and hips, it helps me stay on track. I have lost 71 pounds, and that helps, too.

Hi Annette, Glad you had such a nice weekend. I had one of the nicest weekends of my life and the weather was horrible. This feeling good is great isn't it? Hugs, Didi

Keep on adding, I'm down 71 since 11/28... Karen

Annette; I grew up about 10 miles from Kent Lake. The weather up there must have been really spring like if you were able to go rollerblading. On Saturday, my hubby's cousin and uncle (from Whitmore Lake) were in Corpus Christi for a bowling tournament, so we drove out to the coast to see them. It was crazy hot...90s and very humid at the coast. I've gotten used to living in a much drier environment, so it was almost uncomfortable. Sunday, I drove to Austin for SXSW. My company is exhibiting, so I got the booth set up and worked the exhibition for 6 hours. I just finished the exhibition again today. My feet are killing me. Thankfully, tomorrow is only a 4 hour day and then booth tear down and drive home. Well, I need to run out to find something to eat. When I'm tired and away from home, I miss not being able to just run out for something fast. Last night, I ended up laying down to put my feet up, watched the Sopranos and fell asleep - no dinner last night... Blessings, Jennifer 253 / 191 / ???
