Well, my kids, my husband and I just got back from FL. I had not seen my parents, brother and sisters since last summer - before my surgery. It was my parents surprise 50th wedding anniversary party. That night, when they walked into the restaurant, I was standing right in front of them.  I had a beautiful real flower lei that I had shipped from Maui, placed it around my Mom's neck and kissed her. She didn't know who the hell I was because 10 mins later, she came running across the dance floor crying yelling that she didn't recognize me!...lol. She was wondering where I was when she saw my husband and kids... More than that, I had still been wearing my 22/24 bathing suit.  It was hangin, but I couldnt find one here in Tidewater.   I went to buy a new one....and it's a OMG! 12! I still go into the biggirls section first. Im getting a little discouraged because, while on our trip, I've eaten too much, I think, and I seem to be at a standstill. But will get back on track tomorrow, when I go back to work... Just thought I'd share...again. I know, I know...I need a new avatar! xo J

Glad to hear you had a great time Joy.  Those are some pretty spectacular wow moments.  Don't worry too much about the extra eating.  It happens and like you said now you can get back on track.  I think I need a new avatar too, mine is almost a year old.  Maybe I can work on that this evening.

Joy, How unbelievable about your mother not recognizing you!  So, is that size 12 bathing suit a string bikini???? Looking forward to meeting you at the beach Saturday! Cleo
