Ty Nancy you try to enjoy your weekend too. I know your getting ready for surgery and likely a bundle of nerves. Be good to yourself this weekend. Spend time with your family, read a good book or watch a movie. Will someone be updating for you post op? I shall keep you in my thoughts and prayers for sure. Take Care

I decided that I needed to work towards a short term weight loss goal. Too often I think about the large amount of weight I need to lose and get down about it. Good news I made it to curves again today.
Short term goals: eat healthy continue with Volumetrics plan. Lose 5 lbs by Sept. 30, get out to curves 3 times a wk. and NO BOOZE this weekend. Have a great long weekend all!

I'm planning to go this weekend to get them done. I wanted to make sure I had extra money in case I pick the most expensive ones!

 Hi Deb:  Yes I was thinking the same thing about meeting up someday or even that we have probably crossed paths in our little town.  I think this is a great site for inspiration and information to keep motivated whatever your choice of weight less or health goal is.  I don't know about the courageious part though.  I have tried for so many years to get down to a healthy weight and here I am, in line for a surgical intervention.

If I haven't mentioned I turned 62 this summer and have just made it under the age 60 ish cutoff for surgery so the surgeon said.  Because I do not have co-morbidities, only controlled high blood pressure, I was a good candidate.  So I feel that it is meant to be for me as it is my only chance and I welcome it with open arms.  It is a second chance to have weight loss success and be around for a while longer.  My mother died of complications after a heart attack.  She had kidney failure and was on dialysis for nearly 4 years and had diabetes previous to her heart attack.   She was 63 so I have to remember that and try to be pro-active.  I miss her every day even though she has been gone for over 20 years.  Take good care of yourself and thanks for your thoughts.  Nancy
