Tuh-DAAAHHHHH!!!!

Hi everyone!  Most of you are probably thinking WHERE THE HECK HAVE YOU BEEN???  Some of you are thinking WHO is this crazy woman???  And lastly, some of you KNOW where I've been hehehe  Well, I haven't really been anywhere.  Just really busy.  I'm coming up on the end of my degree and have been extra busy with school.  Work has been a pain lately and I have been keeping myself busy otherwise.  The summer has been great, but I'm ready to decorate for Fall.  Who's organizing the October get together?  Tia?  Weber's Farm?  What day?  I've been working on planning my parents 40th anniversary.  WHY does it have to be so difficult to satisfy EVERYONE?  And some of you KNOW that I'm SO type A that I HAVE to keep everyone happy...of course that is everyone but myself.  I had a fill a little over a week ago and restriction is a little better for me now and the scale is once again cooperating.  Before my next fill I'll need an upper GI so they can see the position of my band and to see the contrast go through the band.  I'm still in an XL and 16/18 stuff.  I guess I should be REALLY happy about that considering where I came from just a year ago!  Oh, btw, NO sweating, stopping or heavy breathing walking up to section 533 at M&T Stadium the past two weeks!!!!  WOOHOO!  btw, I also realized that I have NO WINTER CLOTHES!!!  I need to go buy long sleeve tops, sweaters, pants and a coat!!!!

Maybe that should be a part of our October trip. I have none for the winter either. Keep up the good work.

Weber's Farm is in Parkville, not sure where we could go shopping for clothes nearby other than White Marsh Mall, but I would be up for that!

GM Heather, Gee, with the exception of trying to plan the party/make everybody happy, sounds like you have the kinds of problems anybody would want to have (scale moving again)...hehe.  Glad to hear things are still going well. I know all about juggling school and work full time, but it is so worth it in the long run!   It's funny about being busy....I was thinking about that last night how life has been a whirlwind and I think of all the time I wasted sitting on the couch eating before WLS.   I haven't heard the date, but I think Tia was looking at a Sunday in Oct for Weber's Farm.  I think Tia was going to look at all the replies and figure out the best date from there.   Have a wonderful day!

Hey Terry!  Yeah, the scale moving again is a nice thing for sure!!!  What ever Sunday we pick for Weber's Farm it will be a BLAST!  Have you ever been?  I'll race you down the hill!!!  We of course have to ALL race Kylie TO the hill because it's her favorite hehehe

Hi Heather!   I just had to stop in for a minute to say isn't it great to be able to walk all that way and not be completely out of breath when you get to the top!  My hubby and I were at the game too, section 511 with my girlfriend and a friend of hers.  I wasn't worried one bit about the hike up.  In fact, my hubby was complaining while I kept telling him to come on, keep up.    That was cool!  Sunday was my very first live football game and it was truly a lot of fun.  Ravens fans really get into it huh?!   Well, have a wonderful day! Hugs, Robin

Hey Robin!  Wow you were just around the bend from us.  If I had known we could have met up at halftime!  We sit on the 50 yard line :)  My uncle has season tickets, but he lives in Warrenton, VA and can't always make the games so he sells us tickets for face value.  Not too shabby!  If you think us Raven fans were rowdy for that Cardinals game you should be there for a Steelers or Colts game.  Absolute EVIL! hehehe   We were in the sun ALL day this week so I got some BURN on the tops of my legs. 

Hang in there on school.  BTDT and have the teeshirt.  I did my law degree at night while working full-time.  In the middle of it, I got married.  It was challenging, but ... here I am, almost 10 years later.

Hi Edie!  I'm getting ready to BUY the teeshirt!  I need to CLEP two science classes and complete two two-week classes and I'm finito!  Hey, you'll have your band in NO time now!!!  WOOHOO!  I need another banded buddy in the Maryland Forum!  I love my RNY sisters, but it's nice to have someone who can TRULY relate to the band.
