Hi Everyone!

Long time no see!
Hope all is well.... I hopefully to be getting on here a bit more now - football season is over for high school, and I will have more time to catch up with you fine people!

So, tell me what have I missed??
I had an awesome Thanksgiving... my sister-n-law had not seen me since fathers day, and she literally wept in front of me.. my youngest brother just kept givin me kisses! ha ha

I trust that each of you had a blessed holiday - and are looking forward to the season ahead of you....

God bless!!

Sweetie, you look wonderful! I look forward to seeing you on the board more often now. I think the family reactions are the best. My mom last saw me in May, more than 2 sizes ago. She just kept telling me how great it was to see me skinny. My mom has NEVER called me skinny!! I also overheard a conversation between her and my husband discussing my surgery. How I came to make the decision, how I'm doing after, etc. If I hadn't known before I definitely know now just how much both of them are behind me on this. I just stood in the kitchen and cried hearing how much 2 of the most important people in my world love me and understand why I had this surgery. (BTW, the only reason I overheard their conversation is because hubby has a ruptured eardrum and, right now, he can't hear unless you speak really loud.) I know your family is proud of you!

You look absolutely wonderful I must say. Such a bright pretty smile. Glad you will be able to post more now and hope to see you at the Christmas party?

OMG. I didn't even recognize you. Your new avatar is beautiful. You are doing awesome. Keep up the great work and Happy Holidays!
