OHHHh Penni I am jealous! I love your car and looked at one 10 years ago - the model has changed some, but they are soooo nice. I went with a gold Sebring sports package then, but wished I hadn't.

Hmmm wonder if I can talk the hubby into one of those instead of an suv or van for our next vehicle hehehe <going to drool at Chrysler now>

I just bought a 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara in burgandy today. Had planned to go with a moderate one, but decided to go all the way, leather, sunroof, running boards & heated seats. It is beautiful & the XM radio is fantastic. I feel like a princess!

The Pimp Mobile!!!!!That is what I call her.... LOL 1994 Buick Lasabre.

I used to be the new car every two or three years girl. Hubby and I gave up or 24/7 corporate america jobs and moved to the beach in Florida. This car is like driving a boat! It was the "teenagers" car when we lived in Connecticut. She only has 78,000 miles on her, tons of dents and scratches...

TOP 10 REASONS TO OWN A PIMPMOBILE:

1. you can park her anywhere with no worries

2. you don't have to worry about someone parked next to you denting the door

3. no one would even THINK about stealing her

4. the paint job is already scratched from the teenagers

5. I never have to lock the doors

6. low insurance rates

7. no car payments

8. cart the grandkids around and not worry about the upolstry

9. very reliable

AND THE NUMBER ONE REASON TO KEEP DRIVING THE PIMPMOBILE..........

10. I LOVE HER

:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

NJchick, we drive the same van, mine is patriotic blue (i think). I love it, though wish I could afford to get hubby a sportier car that I could borrow from time to time. He really wanted a cooper before but has started looking at hybrids because of the gas prices. I have about another 8 months to pay off the town and country and then we will buy his car.

My DH is getting very close to ordering his new sports car. He has been looking at all 2 seater and some 4 seater sports cars on the market. The first car we looked at was the BMW Z4. I told the salesman. "If it were me, I would look no further and buy that baby." Yes, I am the impulse buyer in the family. After many cars and many dealerships and much internet surfing, my husband wanted us to go back to the 1st BMW delearship to look at the BMW Z4 again. So yesterday we went to look again at the BMW Z4. He just about turned that car inside out looking it over. When we left, I asked him if he decided yet. He said "Yes the BMW Z4." I said "Why". He said "It has the biggest trunk." I said "Are you ready to buy it?" He said "No, I have to study over the option brocheur and ask the salesman more questions first."

Can anyone guess what my husband does for a living?

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
