Back in the hospital...having weird TIA stroke - like symptoms. Now they think they're atypical migraines. Very disconcerting.

Oh my gosh! What is going on? I truly hope they can get this figured out so you stop going through this! Thinking of you and sending you healing thoughts. Hang in there!

Weighed in at 253.2 today! That is 50lbs down from 4-22 surgery and 87 total! Even though I thought id be further in my weightloss, 50 lbs in 3 months is ok. My original goal for myself was 80 in 6 months which I can hit, and beat! Happy today! Now off shopping for supplies for grad party♥

Went to good will yesterday and got some jeans. Size 18 from a 26! And some L shirts fromXXL not too bad!

Missed all of y'all today..I'm such a junkie here :) I've had a rather busy day and 2 more just like it left to go. I missed checking in on everyone.

In FL we have "tax free weekend" where it's basically a savings for back to school buying. Thought I'd be in the clear waiting to go after work tonight as Fri was nearly over and the weekend is usually the worst..oh no..craziness! Thank God I just have one kiddo and my step kids do theirs with their mom. If anyone ever watched the movie Fried Green Tomatoes and remember her ramming the car yelling Tawanda..that's about what I felt like doing with my buggy :)

hoping since clothes are included as a savings I might can pick up a few things for me to wear this weekend.

We're having tax free in NC as well. As a teacher, I take advantage to get some supplies for my classroom. I also try to get my parents to buy things for the classroom as well. This will be the first time I actually buy some clothes for me! I can't wear anything that I've worn the past 10+ years. Yayyyyyy!

Didnt know they did that! This is the first year in forever that I dont have to buy school supplies! Seems unreal. We were at walmart today and my 18 yr old says, " better get supplies soon. Oh wait..." was too funny. Guess she forgot she graduated!
