LOL. Very cute story about how the plans came about. My husband and I were similar. We weren't necessarily in a hurry however we grew out of our 3 bedroom apartment. I think 4 bedroom apartments are rare..... LOL.... so our next logical step was a house. House plans came first, then the wedding. A little bit backwards, however it is much better than a new house and a wedding at the same time.... whew!

Oh..

Our honeymoon will unfortunately have to wait until next year. I'm thinking about Hedonism II in Jamaica. I would like to go there primarily because children are not allowed... Any thoughts?

I don't know much about " Hedonism II" however, I took a cruise once and one of our stops was in Jamaica. It wasn't necessarily very romantic. I would say, if you don't want to spoil the memory, don't adventure out into the cities. Sad, very sad.

I would say "all inclusive" adult only hotel in cancun. Our trip to cancun was very fun and I was jealous listening to the couples talk about all of the adult games they played at the adult only hotel on one of the dinner cruises we went on and I plan to do that next time we go to Cancun. Mexico has its fair share of unfortunate living arrangements as well, however Cancun has the tourism to "mask" it, if that makes any sense.

Only other thing though is....... to swim with the dolphins in Jamaica is about $50 where in Cancun its about $120 per person. If you want to go snorkeling in Jamaica, LOL, bring your own equipment. It was really gross. However at the hotel we stayed at in Cancun, the equipment was very well sanitized. The only way that I will ever go back to Jamaica is if I stay at 5 star hotel that has everything I would want to do on location with beach front access so that I don't have to adventure away.

Good Luck and congratulations again!

Oh.. She's a certified caregiver. She takes care of the elderly in a elder care facility.

I've been there twice and had a blast. It's definitely "different" than most resorts...especially depending on when you go. Feel free to contact me if you want more information on Hedo.....but I might not be able to spill too much. After all...what happens at Hedo STAYS at Hedo. :girl_hug:

Congratulations. October is a nice month to get married in because it is not too hot nor too cold. It is also a great month to travel in for the same reason. This means that over the years you'll be able to take many great trips and Celebrate your anniversaries at the same time.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
