RHIA, ROller coasters? mmmm..it may just be worth it for me to take that road trip to LAS VEGAS myself...Last year at the ORLANDO convention, my daughter and I rode the KRAKEN, supposedly the highest rollercoaster? I love the trill of rollercoaster riding and I am TERRIFIED of heights..lol<P><P>But, I grabbed my pants, and when on it.over and over again till we were sitting out in the front cars.........WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I even got the pictures to prove this! I'm looking foward to going next weekend to the 2nd BARIATRIC CONVENTION my surgeon is holding in ORLANDO, but this time..my ex husband is keen to go...bummer, I may just have to convince him to ride the rollercoasters with me...but making sure he is highly insured...(insert evil laughter here!--LOL)

Rhia, you are just melting way to nothing......lol. You are doing absolutely fantastic. Good luck with all your endeavors. There are so many new things that you are into its difficult to keep track. Before you know it your hubby will be home and he won't recognize you!! Thanks for all your time and effort with the Photos and for helping us volunteers figure things out.

Rhia, Sorry that you're so heartbroken. It's hard to be apart from someone you love. I'm here if you ever want to chat!! oxoxox love ya!

Rhia, I am sorry to hear about your husbands smoking again. I myself quit a year and a half ago. It was only after I was in the hospital with asthma and double pneumonia that I realized what it felt like to be without breath. Perhaps, he will quit again once is is in a smoke free atmosphere again. I'm praying for you!! oxoxoxo Marcy

I read your post and I'm dying laughing...Ducks feet slapping the pavement!!! THANK YOU, I never could describe the sound I hear from my flabby arms and thats it EXACTLY....lol....See, even when you are feeling down and a bit teary (and you have every right to, 2 weeks is a long time to have your hubby gone), you still managed to bring laughter to someone else. I hope you are feeling happier soon. Take care. quack, quack from another flappy arm person....lol
