  1. I am anxious and excited. Headed to Vegas on Friday. After 30 years of going there at least twice per year, we have made many friends. I have not seen them nor have they seen me since 10 weeks after surgery. Many don't know and I am somewhat unrecognizable. Looking forward to seeing them, have to decide what I share and what i don't. It will be fun though, it is vegas afterall!

  2. I'm hangry today! I think I have had a gallon of water and cannot seem to get a handle on it. I haven't given in but I am hungry and angry that I am hungry. Hangry!

      Hi- Djmohr its been a while...I am 8 months out now I hit around 1200 a day but with working out ( I power walk ALOT) I NET anywhere between 800-900 calories MOST days 3-5 days a week anyway. The other days Im at 1200 cal... which is still going to have us losing weight at anyway. How many pounds left to goal? Are you going to start maintaining? you look fabulous BTW Hope all is well on your side. :)

  3. Ugh! I am having a nuclear stress test in about an hour in preparation for my shoulder surgery. Nuclear because with my crappy shoulder and back I cannot run on a treadmill. I hate the way that medication effects me. Oh well, I am expecting good results and the last time I had a stress test was about a week before my bypass in 2014. Not a fun day today....

  4. Guess what I did tonight?!! I went shopping for boots to wear with my skinny jeans. I literally tried on 10 pair and could fit in all of them. Even the wide calf ones used to not fit me! Now I can wear regular ones with no problem! My husband was so excited for me that he bought me two pair! One black leather coach and one brown pebbled leather pair! They are so dam cute I can hardly wait to wear them! Yeah me!!!

      hi djmohr its been a while since i been on so im catching up on all my notifications. I saw your profile and stats WOW you are doing great!!! I have ups and downs and right now currently having a down. I hit my 6 month mark and the weight loss SLOWED. They weren't lying about the first 6 month honeymoon period! I have not been working out as much as my main location for working out is OUTSIDE. And Its cold out there now! LOL congrats on the new boots. Last time I tried to get into some my calf wouldnt fit either. Been scared to try again. Hope you had a great Christmas/Holiday. Look forward to seeing more posts. :)
