Mar 24, 2009

Hey, hey, hey!  Hope this finds everyone doing well.  If you are anything like me, you are anxiously awaiting warm weather.  Every once in a while we have one nice day and all it does is make me long for more of it!  We were able to get Dave's scooter out a week ago and hit the road for a ride.  Mine is currently being worked on.  It shouldn't be much longer until the repairs are done and I will be back in business again....well, in conjunction with warmer weather, that is!  LOL!

I have fallen out of the habit of weighing every day.  I have been maintaining around 137 for so many months now that I just hop on once in a great while to make sure I am still hanging in that range.  If a pound or two more shows up I yank myself back in line pretty quickly.  I am liking being thin WAYYYYYYY too much to let it slip between my fingers. 

We are back into going to the gym regularly.  I am sure once it is warmer and we are working in the yard more, we will back off again for awhile but we will see.  I still am going to support group monthly and each time I go I am so glad that I did....more for the connecting with other people.  This months speaker was a bust in my opinion but I guess different strokes for different folks! 

I am still going to Gettysburg weekly to see my Dad.  He is doing well I think since losing my mother.  I don't regret going but I have to admit that it is making getting other things done difficult as I go on Fridays and that is my usual house cleaning day.  Often we go to Gettysburg on Sundays also so that leaves Saturday and we are usually on the go that day so as a result when I get home from work Monday thru Thursday I am not worth much.  I am thinking about backing off of the Friday trips to see if that will help.

I am struggling with the new OH format.  I should be getting used to it by now but alas, I am not.  Am I the only one in these shoes?

I have started tanning again.  I usually tan during March and April so when I do get out in the sun I don't burn.  Heck, at least it makes me THINK warm weather may be around the corner at least!  LOL!

Make no mistake that I am estactic over the bypass and have ZERO regrets.  I would be lying though if I didn't admit some sadness when I have to acknowlege the boobs are long gone.  I have always said that if the weight was gone I wouldn't complain about the side consequences....excess skin, etc.  I guess one doesn't really know til they are actually there because I would just about give my right hand for boobs.  Sigh*  I haven't even bothered to price them because I know we can't afford them but if we ever hit a windfall financially you can bet I will be running to the closest silicone I can find!  LOL!

I really hope that everyone is doing well.  Take care!
