Where are you....and what do you do?

Just to get to know each other a little better......

I live in Northern Utah....about 35 miles north of Salt Lake City...

I'm a retired police officer, spent 23 years on the department and retired in January of 2006.....now I work retail for Golden Spike Harley-Davidson.

Just part time, but it's a fun job.

I worked two years as a bail bond agent, but I didn't like that very much....was glad to get the gig at the harley shop where people are happy!

Hi! Thought I'd join the March bandsters and give it a try. I had my surgery March 26, 2008, in Mazatlan, MX. I live in Eastern WA State and manage my brother's (and two other provider's) medical practice here. I am the mom of 4 grown children (2boys, 2 girls) and Grandma to 4 (5 in Sept!) sweet grandkids! I spent the week following my surgery at my brother's condo in Mazatlan, so that was a big help in recuperating. Doing ok at this point. Just started mushies so that helps some. Looking for a good place in WA State (especially Eastern WA) to get my fills done. Any suggestions?

Starting weight: 260 lbs.

Surgery weight: 252 lbs.

Current weight: 242 lbs.
