Good morning! I'm up early for fitness classes today - woo!

QOTD: When people come to you for help, what do they usually want help with? (I'll put my answer in a comment.)

Good morning weekly weighers!

My week was all over the place in terms of eating and I think I might schedule an "emergency" appointment with my psychiatrist if I can't get my act together this week. Fingers crossed that I'll be able to!

It's Friday! Yay! And today is Art's 40th birthday! Eek! I have a good day planned - fitness classes in the morning, research in the afternoon.

Last night I went to the local monthly WLS support group. It's hosted by a local health care provider and, luckily for me, anyone can attend whether they've done surgery with that system or not. We tend to have 6-10 people on any given month.

I'm looking forward to a great day today. The electrician is coming to fix a socket that tried to blow up the house last week and I've got my WLS support group this evening. Aside from that it's, can you guess?, more school work! But my GERO quiz po

Good morning, all! I'm in a good place with my classwork today, so I'm going to be able to enjoy the weekend more than I had initially thought I'd be able to! I'm going out to Indian for lunch and then to indoor mini golf with Art and some friends fr

Hey goal setters and goal trackers! How are your 2018 goals progressing?

Here's my end of the month update. Did great with some things, not so great with others. I feel like I'm definitely still finding getting my bearings this year. I'll

Like many of us, I started experiencing coccyx pain after losing a significant amount of weight. I got a random coccyx pillow from Amazon and it was okay. Things improved with time.

Then I had my lower body lift in June 2017 and was pretty

Happy February!

QOTD: What book are you reading right now? What's it about? Would you recommend it? If you're not reading anything at the moment, what was the last book you really enjoyed? What was it about?


Gwen M. posted a discussion topic 7 years, 5 months ago

I didn't want to start the post this week, since I don't want to admit to my current weight! Which is a sign that I should own it and get the post going as no one else has. Crazy eating for me over the weekend while visiting my mom so no surprise at

Happy Tuesday! Today is a big school work push day for me, with a brief break for lunch with a friend and a brand-new super close to my home Indian restaurant. This could be dangerous. Erin reports that she survived surgery!

Hi all - I have some compression girdles that I no longer need and I'm wondering if anyone is interested in them?


Gwen M. posted a discussion topic 7 years, 6 months ago

Whatever "normal" is. New normal? The normal I want to be normal?

Today I ran for the first time since May. I've been pretty much entirely sedentary since my first reconstructive surgery in early June. I had my legs done last, 73 days ago
