For anyone who is interested, we are going to start a 6 week Valentine Day Challenge on Saturday.:laugh:

Weigh yourself on Saturday and decide what your goal will be and then post it here. You don't have to tell me your weight, just how much you want to lose!

Valentine's Day is for Lovers - let's love ourselves this holiday!;)

I would like a piece of the action:rolleyes2:. I think I will be more conservative this time and say 10 pounds for the time frame. I have been so bummed over the past month, and then today I found out the pool won't be completed until February, so no Water aerobics for January:frown: I was so hoping to get that started.

Great pix of the babies, grammas.

Happy New Year!

Love the adorable grandbaby pictures-- such a couple of cutie patooties!! SO CUTE!

Hugs back to Mr. Buster, Mal! Glad to hear your friend was with you on Christmas Eve; I hope he's doing well.

I'd like to jump in on the VD challenge too, please. Put me down for losing the 7 pounds that I found over the last few months, Miss Dee. And thank you for being the statistician. I'm going to try hard not to be a drop out this time around!

My pops moved (short-term, I hope)to a nursing facility this week for some intensive PT, hopefully to get him more mobile. So I'm off to visit him, then back home to cook the traditional New Year's good luck meal.

2009 is going to be the best year ever for all of us -- I can just feel it!!

Happy New Years everybody! Count me in on the VDay challenge. Put me down for -5. These last two months have been awful. This morning I was up 4.7, don't know what I have changed. Hopefully, I will be able to pull this one off.

I'll sign up for 10. So everyone still needs to give me their final weigh in totals for today when they get a chance. I gained another .40. Bleh.

Happy New Year everybody! Size 9 is not in my future, but am hoping to be a size 12 in 2009. No rhyme, but I will be delighted.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
