Hi Chris, good to hear from you. I have not heard a peep from her. I did check a while back on when she had been on here last and it had been a long time. I guess maybe she wants it that way as she has never gotten back in touch with me after I tried to get a hold of her. I do hope she is ok though. Good on you with that 60 lbs.! I am in a holding pattern right now but am sure I will start losing again soon.

We've been doing a lot of quading. Last weekend we camped with about 4 other families in Powell Canyon which is about 15 miles south of Hawthorne. We road all over those mountains! We went up to Aurora and Bodie and then back across the highway and up over to Cabin under the Rock. You can view Boundry Peak from there. It's pretty awesome!

sounds like fun!! we have not ridden alot this year. It has just been too dry and I have been scared of the fire danger. My brother is a fireman with Sierra fire and the stories he has told me from this summer will curl your toes!!

I really like them a lot too. Laurie does my fills and she's so sweet. I like all the staff there. I like Watson...there was just that one thing. I realized though when I thought about it that the hernias are so common he probably just didn't think of it since it was no big deal. One of the girls who works at the desk gave me a bunch of recipes when I was in there for a fill on Monday. Now how sweet is that. They were her own from her desk and she made me copies. From reading some of the

messages on the boards here, we are very lucky to have such a great, competent and friendly place!!!

just 20 min south of Reno....

I live in between Spanish Springs and Palamino Valley...about seven miles from the Albertson's (it's renamed now and I can't think of what it's called)..I adopt dogs and cats from the Humane Society so we had to be a bit out but not too far. That would drive me nuts.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
