Missing ya'll!
I have been off the boards for a couple weeks and just wanted to tell you how much I've missed you and your questions, stories and just everyday antics! Just a quick update if anyone is interested....the weight is slowly coming off....which I'm not complaining it is still coming off faster than "normal" but not like someone who is only 4 months out and I'm doing my damndest to exercise everyday. I'm not nearly up to a 5k but I am doing more. Still wondering how in the hell I'm going to loose the 55 pounds in the second 3 months as I did in the first. Trying not to focus on the number but how I look...the scale is only one form of measurement! I put on a pair of shorts with a button for the first time in a couple years? Maybe 3. So, I'll get a little wear out of them before "winter" hits...in Georgia depending on the season I have worn shorts at Christmas just depends...LOL but I expect a cold winter.
Any who, the major news is that my hubby and I have separated. It has been a long time coming, he wants to blame the surgery but the surgery gave me back my life and hope in the world. He has his own addiction issues and I can no longer keep me and my son in this environment.
I am still looking for a job but my son has changed schools and I hope to find something in the next month...who's to say. I can't stand my Mom having to foot my bills! Life is getting better. A job would only make it perfect!
So, in another 40-45 pounds I will be back in my clothes from when I was on Weigh****chers and I can't wait!! Jeans here I come!! I'm sure I could wear some now but I am waiting for the 2 pair I have hanging in the closet. This is how my weight has fluctuated over the last 10 years....I have a closet full of clothes, two large plastic bins, dresser, and chest and a large green lawn bag. So now I'm filling up the suitcase with things that are just getting ridiculously large. Thinking about putting them on ebay to just make a little money for gas and incidentals. I never want to go back there again! I can see how this is only a tool.....I have good days and then I already have REALLY hungry days....I wouldn't change it for the world....like everyone else...only wish I had done it sooner!!
Well guess I'd better go....no internet at my Mom's and sometimes the connection at the library when I'm job searching is less than desirable. I try to keep up using my phone but for some crazy reason it won't allow me to type in the text box...only the subject field.
Hope everyone is good and exercising! :) Hopefully, I'll be back online sooner rather than later!!
Love,
Sherry

Sorry to hear about your marriage. But someone better could be waiting in the wings. Wow--shorts in December I sure envy that. I live in northeast Oregon where it gets cold in the winter.
You have another positive--you already have clothes. I have a few things that are too small but
thats about it. I am looking forward to buying new or new to me clothes. My surgery is 10/09. Wish me luck.
