Getting Closer...
Dec 09, 2006
12/10/06 - Well this has been a very low key weekend. I made a really yummy quiche and just ate it without the crust. I have been craving quiche for so long! Today we are going to veg out at home and I am making a pot roast. Got on the scale this morning and I am down to 209. I am getting closer to Onderland! I hope to be under 200 by January 15th for our cruise. Wish me luck!
Scale Moved A Little
Nov 29, 2006
11/30/06 - Well the scale seems to have moved a little. I was 213 today. I wish it would come off faster like in the beginning! Oh well, any loss is a good loss. We have a busy weekend ahead of us - Christmas party on Saturday night and then we are getting our tree and decorating on Sunday. I love this time of year! I am almost finished with all my shopping. Can't believe it! I am so excited - Nathan is finally potty trained! We have been working on this for 4 months! I am so proud of my little man!
L L Bean - NEW SIZE

11/28/06 - Just wanted to share something exciting - Joe and I went Christmas shopping yesterday and I decided to try on a pair of pants and a coat at LL Bean and guess what! I could fit into a Large pants and an XL coat! What an awesome feeling! I am so glad I had this surgery - everyday I notice something new with this weightloss!
7 Months 16 days Post-Op

11/27/2006 - Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I did!! We went to my Sister-in-Laws house for dinner and I was VERY well behaved (except for drinking too much wine)! I had a piece of turkey, a scoop of green bean casserole, and a little fruit salad. I got way too full and had to take a walk in the rain just to get rid of the full feeling. On Friday morning, we got packed up and took our travel trailer to Hershey Park for the weekend! It was really a beautiful weekend. We stayed at Hershey High-Meadow Campground and went to the Sweet Lights on Friday night, Hershey Park on Saturday, and the Chocolate Factory on Sunday. I did really good with the eating and got plenty of exercise. I rode about 5 rides and fit comfortably in every one!!!!!!! What a WONDERFUL feeling! I haven't gone on rides since 1998 or so! Being at the Chocolate Factory didn't bother me at all surprisingly. I am so proud of myself these days. What a great feeling to know I am finally in control of my eating. The scale is still stuck at 215 but I am okay with that since I know I am doing what I am supposed to and it will eventually move again.....I hope

11/20/06 - I got on the scale again this morning and I am down to 215. That is a weightloss of 115 pounds to date. I hope to be under 200 by the New Year. Thanksgiving is going to be strange this year. I love stuffing and potatoes but I will do just fine eating only the turkey! Oh well....Being thin is way better! Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving! I know I have lots to be thankful for this year!
The New Profile

11/12/06 - Just switched over to the new profile last night. Not sure if I like it or not! None of my story was there! I had to copy and paste it! Got on the scale this morning and I am now 216. My clothes are huge and everyone is noticing! Today I am wearing a sweater that is a size 18! So excited!
