It's been forever since I posted, where to start! Chrissy I see congratulations are in order in a big way!! OMG!

I have lost a total of 87 pounds.  It's been just about 7 1/2 months.  I can comfortably wear a size 8 misses jeans.  And in tops anywear from a medium to large, depending on the brand.  I really need to get some new winter wear though! My kids are complaining because I keep wearing their clothes.  LOL, I just love it, I do it ...BECAUSE I CAN!!!

I have officially reached my surgeons goal of 169.........I am officially as of this morning 161......closing in on the 150's hopefully soon.

For the last 6 weeks I have had some setbacks with my Multiple Sclerosis.  Had a flare up and just finished my second round of steriods for my right foot "dropping"  I feel so much better these last few days.  that medicine just kicks my ass.  My foot seems to be slightly better but not back to where it was originally.  Don't know if I will ever get that back but time will tell. 
We have a few trips coming up here that I am really looking forward to!! Oct 23-25 we are taking the kids, since they are a little old for trick or treating, to Pine Grove Dude Ranch in the catskills for a halloween weekend.  It sounds really cool, there is horseback riding which I have always wanted to do, swimming, rock wall climbing, line dancing, live entertainment each night, one of the guys from TAPS, is gonna be there, haunted hayrides, and its all inclusive, all you can eat, and drink...cocktail parties nightly.......lol.......sounds like fun.  Then in December, for my birthday, my hubby is taking me to Russell's grand hotel for the night and dinner.......Then for Christmas this year..........we are taking our girls to the BUFFALO SABRES VS> PITTSBURGH PENGUINS hockey game!!!!! Staying at the Adam's mark hotel for the night and having dinner at the Harbour club at the HSBC ARENA!!!! THE BEST PART!!!!         We have tickets in th 105 section, row 5!~!2 rows behind the players bench at center ice!!!  We will be right freakin behind the players!!! WOOOOOHOOOO!!!!
GO SABRES~~~
So anyway............this is the last weekend of camping for us.  Time to clean out the camper and close it up and say good bye to all our camping friends until spring!! Not really, we actually get together quite a bit over the winter.  But it's still sad.
Hopefully it won't take as long to catch up next time and I have to get some new pics posted.  I can't believe the way I look and feel these days.  It is just totally amazing to me!! Best of luck to everyone on their journey's!!
