Numerology anyone?!

Today I turned 63; I woke up at exactly 6:30, got on the scale, and hit a total loss of 30 lbs! Anyone into numerology-- all those variables of 3 have got to mean something! :-)

Thank you all for your shared stories about numbers! And your good wishes! I had a wonderful b'day, so the numbers thing must mean something positive!

Continued success to everyone---Sid21, so much lost and only 2 lbs to go! So cool! Congrats!

Happy Birthday! And Congrats on your 30 lbs lost :) I think it means something too.

I know this sounds stage and out of topic with lapband, but for the past five years, every time I look at the clock at night,

it's always 9:11. I haven't missed a day of it. So bizarre!!!

I love numbers like that too. My boyfriend was born on 22, I was born on 24, my son 26 and our daughter 28. And it goes in order of age oldest to youngest and boy girl boy girl. I am weird!

And happy birthday and continued success!

I believe in it....some thinkers even claim numerology has some biblical connections to it.

One story..

husband was born on 7/20.....his best friend passed away on 7/7/7...at exactly 7:20 with him sitting by his side. Thought that was interesting.

Happy Birthday! Sorry I was late. I don't know about numerology, but I would say that losing 30 pounds shows the significance of your commitment to being better each year. Can't wait to see what you do next year.

First of all, CONGRATS on the 30lbs!! You go girl!!

I dont really follow numerology, but my baby has an interesting number pattern....He was born on may 8th 2008 at 8:18am he weighed 8lbs 8oz. My little number 8 boy :)

Most ancient religions consider three a magical, powerful number (most prime numbers have had mystical meanings attributed to them at one point or another). It certainly seems to have been a powerful number for you on your birthday!! :D

I don't know if it means anything but my fater died on the eleventh hr and the fifth min on the eleventh day of the,fifth month. & his neighbor died eleven days latef! Spooky!

I was born 11/23/82, my daughter was born exactly 23 years later on 11/23/2005, and it never fails that everyday I catch the clock at 11:23 every day one time or another. I also was randomly assigned locker number 23, and my combination code starts with an 11. I am a strong believer in numerology... those numbers are now tattooed on my foot for my daughter and I, and I play them in roulette anytime I go to the casino.

Great stories, thanks for sharing sometimes I wonder if I am the only one!

I too have similar number patterns in my life. I met my husband 1/1/11, had our first official date on 1/11/11 and he proposed on 2/1/11 and we got married on 4/1/11. For years I have always looked at the clock at 1:11. Kinda wish my surgery was scheduled for the 11th instead of July 6 but maybe I'll hit the ONEderland on 1/11/11!!!

Between meeting my best friend,getting married and getting banded this year, 2011 has definitely been a great year so far!!!!!

This has been so fun hearing all the neat numbers stories! And how cool for you that yours is also a special bond between you and your daughter.

Happy Birthday, and congratulations on your weight loss so far! I am sure you will have many more fantastic birthdays to come. Congratulations for getting healthy!

As for numerology, I am fascinated by how numbers work sometimes!

My mom and dad have the same birthday, their mothers have the same birthday and they both have brothers named Richard and sisters named Carol.

Wow! You've lost over 30 lbs in about 3 weeks!! Amazing! And congrats for losing 25 lbs pre surgery! I love your story about your parents! Amazing universe, isn't it?! Keep up the great work!

I think that a lot of my quick weight loss is Water weight. I have a fairly large amount to lose; and I've heard that sometimes people who have that much to lose tend to lose faster at first... But yes, it's been a lot; and thanks for the compliment!! I appreciate it!

I think that you're doing great too!! Every pound is a victory and deserves a celebration I think. And yes, this universe works in amazing ways! I'm glad that we're all going to be here to enjoy it.
