I am sooooo excited! Thanks! You are so right about Becky's hats. Wouldn't a burgandy one with the gray fuzzy around the brim or a purple with pink fuzzy be cute?! What about it Becky? I would be glad to send you the money for it up front so you won't be out of pocket-you too-Teresa.

Congrats to all of you losers, of weight that is! Melissa! I love your avatar. You are so beautiful! Betty, you have already lost so much! You are doing awesome!!!!

As a freedom-yes-as exercise? Yeah right! How are you feeling Lisa? Have you been taking it easy and letting yourself heal? Well, the kids are out of school this week so Brittany and I are committed to go to Curves AM and PM on the days that they are open this week.

How Cute!!! I Am Just Now Seeing The Hats. I Must Have One!!! If You Are Willing To Make Me One, I Will Pay-i Like The Fuzzy Ones, Too. bUrgandy/gray Or Any Color Will Do. Please!!! Pm Me And Let Me Know. My Crazy Curls Will Probably Stick Out Everywhere But Who Cares!

I look forward to meeting her! I'm not sure if there is anyone from that area that are members or not. I know we have an area set up for different states but I don't know about countries. There are wonderful people from all over the world though.

Concerned Husband, my neighbor had a laproscopic style hysterectomy recently. The worst pain for her came from the air trapped inside her. She said that the thing that helped the most was moving. Sending big hugs and prayers to you and your wife. Keep us informed.

Ryan-I am happy for you and look forward to the day when I can step on that boat and start my path.

Welcome Concerned Husband, I hope your wife gets to feeling better soon. You've come to a great place for info and support. Good luck.

Hey! I'll be so proud of my body when I get to my goal weight-I might just do it!

Thank you! And welcome-I noticed you are relatively new to the board. The people here are wonderful. I am so glad to hear that others have had good experiences with BCBS. I was getting worried :nervous ! How are you feeling since your surgery? Do you live in the D/FW area?

You look great! If you have been exercising regularly-your husband is probably right. Muscle weights more than fat. If you gain it and lose fat you might not see a drop on the scale but you will see a drop in inches. It's been said before-Exercise makes you smaller not lighter.

Welcome Lil one- Congratulations on your weight loss! Thanks for the info-its nice to know we might have other options-especially when it could help burn patients.

I think my cpap is blowing air down the wrong way at night! In one end-out the other! I'm getting DH back for all the torture he has forced me to endure!

Tootaly excited for you about your upcoming surgery....I mean totally!

Thanks for the cranberry idea! That does sound good. Marie-I have not been to an American Dentist in 10 years! I went to my grandparents dentist in Mexico to have my teeth cleaned about two years ago-He said my teeth didn't need to be cleaned and sent me out the door! (I don't know if it was because they were really clean or because I was already tearing up! ) I am a compulsive "teeth brusher" because I am soooo afraid to get a cavity! I am fortunate because my parents both had alot of dental issues and so they had my adult teeth sealed when they can in. I dread the day when I need dental work! Oops Hi-Jack! Well, I am trying to talk DH into going to the Zoo. If not, I am going to work out at curves.

Greg-I am not sure that THAT wouldn't be illegal! LOL You've got me cracking up here!

Way to go on the bike Marie! But did you run out on the dentist?

Curves this AM and PM. Weigh-in is coming up shortly. No weight lost-I eat too much at night and I DONT DRINK MY WATER!!!! Why is it that we do the things we know we shouldn't and we don't do the things we should? Is there a "Drinking water thread?" I could sure use some encouraging in that area.

I really need help with my avatar. It didn't work right. Maybe this week-end I can try again. When I looked at the pic on my comp. it was clear but when I made it fit the specifications-it doesn't look right? Was'up?

#1 is great-#3 spunky/very cute but #1 has my vote for an avatar! You are a beautiful girl.

Hey do yall remember the movie, Son in Law- CHEEK CHILLERS!!!! If you haven't seen the movie-watch it. Wouldn't that be a site!

Lisa-It's probably good that you don't exercise if you aren't going to bath!!! But really-I am truly sorry that you are having such a hard time. I commend you for doing as much as you do! Take it easy and get better! Let us know how you are doing. I will be praying for you. Curves this AM but then I stopped and grabbed a burrito and a large coke! I guess I will have to go back this evening with Brittany and try it again.

In response to Lisa's names for Bras: Double barrel shot gun case!

Thank you, Thank you! I did not use the courage you gave me to go to church. I used it to post my picture. Which by the way my husband had to take because there are none of me around here! I have never worked with pix on the computer like that before so my pic did not turn out like I wanted. I will continue to work on it.

Welcome Nmiranda, You've come to the right place! Read the different threads and ask questions you will learn so much. Glad you are here! Welcome Linda!
