Well, I guess this has turned into our very own thread.. If someone chimes in now, they've got a lot of reading to do! I'm going to call the office today to see if they'll fill me a little more. I'm not supposed to go in for 6 weeks, so I'm afraid they're going to tell me to get lost lol.. I def need more in by 6 weeks! Well, 5 weeks now.
No progress photos as of yet. I'll do a few when I come back from camping.. I'm hoping to get a little tan?? If it's possible:) This morning I was 207.. So one more lb down.. Ughh! I am so close! Luckily most of our camp food is Protein, and I am out and about all weekend, fishing, walking, lugging wood, maybe I can lose a few more:) My husband likes junk food for camp, so I'm going to get stuff I don't care for.. Trying to plan ahead. I hope this works!
Have you gotten any pics of yourself to do comparison? I'm telling you, you won't regret it! It's great to look back on. Did the office do a polaroid of you at your first consult? I'm curious to look at mine. I think it's a good idea:)
Well, off to job #2.. Yay. lol.. It sounds stressful there, not looking forward to this longgg shift!
I hope you are having better weather than I. It's cold and wet here, I just want a nap!

Harley- I am sooo with you on the arms.. My sister grabbed my "wings" this weekend, and said, "you gonna do something about this?" AGGHHH! I could've smacked her, but really it was a wake up call.. I had no idea what they looked like under there.. I pulled out the resistance bands today, and plan on do them 2x a day.. On the hospital website where I got my surgery the personal trainer has pics of how he teaches to use the bands (that they gave us).. They are super cheap, and he said that the exercises do they same thing as a Bowflex?! It's only 2-3 set of 10-15 reps, and he told me to pic 3 different exercises to do daily, and it will tone up my arms in no time:) Here is the link if you or anyone else is interested.. Personal Fitness Component
The sets are easy, and fun! I swear:) There is also a link on the right for the stability ball exercises..
Carrie- Put the candy down and step away slowly.. lol One trick my sister taught me: If something looks delish, and is getting the best of you- smother it in ketchup.. It probably wouldn't work for french fries, but I bet it would for candy bars!:glare:
Fenton- a late congrats on your book! I heart reading:) I am a huge Janet Evanovich fan, her books are addicting! As well as Mitch Albom, Stephen King, and John Grisham, amongst many others.. Best of luck to you, and I'll be sure to check out the bookstore to get it ordered!
Hope everyone is doing well!!

ps- MY scale IS BROKEN?! Could this be a sign?? lol I should really let well enough alone, but it is killing me.. I'll have to buy a good one on pay day! GRRRRR!! Here's to hoping the new one shows better numbers;)
