o.k. so my numbers are 43`` around the fullest part of the bust. and my RIB measurement is 37 + 1 inch to round up to 38``

therefore the difference is 5 `` which equals an ``E`` cup... which is exactly what I wear....

Good morning,

This hotel was AMAZING. I got it for 40$ by naming my own price at priceline! It was essentially an apartment! I had a kitchen, living room, bedroom and a fairly good sized bathroom. I have lived in apartments MUCH smaller than this!

Well I am off to my brothers as soon as I take a shower. That means no internet or phone. I will be driving into town occasionally so that I can get download the stuff I need to put my classes together. I got a lot done yesterday. When I can just sit down, turn on some good music and not worry about everything else I can actually get something done. Lately though my mind has been going in 12 billion directions and I haven't been able to get ANYTHING done. I already actually feel better!

Hi ladies. I'm better. .... Or rather, I'm finished. Not feeling so hot. I think I may have gotten sun stroke yesterday. By the end of the day any exhertion made me nausous. Today, any activity at all makes me want to hurl. go figure.....me...hurling? Like that never happens :confused:

Okay. Pink ribbon is over and it wasn't as great as I had hoped. It was really windy and hot and buggy out so the ride wasn't so great. I stayed behind to get the carnival and food taken care of. So I ran my butt off all day. Not as good turn out as I had hoped for....oh well. I'm not going to stress out about it. I'm going to count money tomorrow and hope I broke even. I don't think I made anything for the PRR. May ask my bike club to donate. We are non-profit so I think there are funds that we need to spend. We'll see.

Karla, I got on the scale the day I said I was going to. It was 176. I will get back on tomorrow and report my number. food has been pretty good for me this week. Only one binging evening when I went to the drive in. Jeff wants to go tonight to see Salt, but who knows. We are both pretty wiped out. I also have been chugging Water all day trying to rehydrate from the sunstroke. We'll see what the numbers say tomorrow.

Karri! I love you! I sure hope you get some results with your time relaxing. I promise, you can always come here and I'll try to take care of you :scared2: There's no stress in my life, right? :crying:

Candice, Peter is so cute. At least he took care of the ice for you. I know you told him you would buy it, and he didn't agree, so he dealt with it. And now, one less thing on your plate. I LOVE it!

Alright ladies. As promised. I will slow down for a little bit. I will be doing a few things but nothing this stressful for a while. Love you all so much. You worry too much about me :) I'm going to be alright. Talk to you later. Have a great Sunday.

Why do you think NetFlix is such a booming business? New shows start again in a month I think! Can't wait! I'm pretty sure Sunday night still stinks, but maybe not. I TiVo everything anyways so I really don't know what night what comes on.

Oh...and no....I don't remember any of those shows. You're way OLD!!!:confused: Just kidding love! You can't remember those shows either!

Candice, I remember all those old shows!

Boy, I have decided that I have finally lost it. I got up early this morning to do some unpacking and gather stuff for the garage sale I am having on Friday. I'm doing dishes, I look at the clock, crap, where did the time go. So I rush around and try to throw all my stuff together and rush out to the car and drive like the dickens to get to work on time. I drive up to the nursery and the gate is closed, so I open it and drive in and the boss walks out and asks me what I was doing at work AN HOUR EARLY. So much for getting a lot down.

So yep, I am going to throw together a yard sale on Friday. I bribed Elyse to set it all up and run it while I am at work and I'll share the money with her.

Stephanie, okay you have taken the first step, I am SO PROUD of you, I knew you could do it!!

Sorry, short post, I really am tired. TTFN

Yeah, Petr is working on cleaning up his garage!!! We are going to have the BAR in the garage... all the rest of the festivities will be outside!!! (weather permitting)....

My niece says weather report for next weekend in Buffalo is GREAT, so hopefully you will have good weather for your party, too!

Candice you are right, I'm too tired to unpack tonight, but I am going to sit down with my list. It is time for it all to go. The only thing I really enjoy is my quilting and sewing, so I am going to write a list of everything that will go. I don't really enjoy making candles or lotion, so that is first to go. Phyl, would you be interested in my beading stuff? Beads are not to heavy, so it wouldn't take much to ship them. Ceramics...need to go..., wire projects have to go, wooden projects need to go. Thank you for giving me permission to down size. I really should have a garage sale, but I just can't figure out when I will have time to do it. The perfect weekend would be September 11th. Maybe I can get Elyse to work it for me. I need some food. TTFn

Sure, I'd be interested in the beading stuff... Be happy to pay for shipping. How much stuff do you have?? Beads, etc?

Oh my GOSH.... i just started cleaning out my Upstairs freezer.... thinking I`ll need room this week when I buy Ice cubes by the bag for the party....

So I load up a laundry basket of stuff, go downstairs to my chest freezer - open it up and guess what? there is no room in there....Apparently my HUSBAND has been making ice cubes for the party next weekend!!!! WTF? Dosn`t he know we can buy ice???

EARL!!! earl!!! HAVE YOU BEEN TEACHING e-CLASSES ONLINE!!!!????? :scared2: :crying: :confused:

Yeah... remember last summer when I had my knee replacement. I think he broke my first ice machine by putting big chunks of ice that he made in bowls in the freezer in it!!

So, here's my update!! Couldn't get online for the past few days. We were just plain too busy in Wisconsin... 5K walk, Tig took me to Lands End outlet, her and I went to an art show... so even though I didn't get to walk the walk, I did walk with her at the art show and shopping. It was hot and muggy. It was okay... made it by stopping and resting now and then. Left foot still numb/tingly, but back is a little better.

So.. Tuesday met up with Julie in Bismarck ND. Nice lady. She came out to the RV park we were staying at and visited with us for an hour or so. Wanted to take us out to dinner, but we were kind of tired that day. Fourth day on the road and the day before had been really stressful... trouble finding an RV park and then Earl got so nasty I was ready to unhitch the car and drive the rest of the way by myself! Whenever things go wrong it's all my fault!

So I decided then and there that we were NOT going more than 300 miles a day! So the next day we stopped at Alexandria MN, which is where "Apples" from the "I'm here to help" thread was going to be for a dental appt. There was a big Super Walmart there, so we did a little shopping first for some odds and ends we needed. Then went to the RV park and Karen was just a few minutes behind us. So we visited a while and then she took us out to dinner... rode in her truck. She and I split a Walleye dinner. OH.. that was GOOD fish!

So... I had planned to go on to our friend's in WI the next day, but it was a little too far for one day so we stopped 100 miles short and got to her house the next morning about 10:30 a.m. She'd left the door open for us, so we had plenty of time to set up, and relax until she got home from work.

That night we went out to another fish dinner! Her tenant that lives in her downstairs apartment came with us, and another couple who are friends of hers met us there. It was a fun evening.

And I already told you all the stuff we did on Saturday.

But... Saturday morning she made us the most delicius frittata! Egg whites, a ton of veggies.... like spinach, etc, and some low fat cheese. It was wonderful.

And when we got home Saturday night she made her "famous" white chicken chili! She is quite a good cook! She made it last time we were there, so I bugged her to make some for us again! And she gave us the leftovers, so I'll be having some of it tomorrow!

OH... that reminds me... when "Apples" came to visit,she brought us frozen steaks from a farmer near them, and fresh sweet corn from her farm! Finished that tonight.

I thought we'd be getting to Buffalo on Tuesday, but depends on what kind of time we make tomorrow. And finding RV parks from here on is difficult. Spent more time on the computer this afternoon trying to find a place 300 miles away but it's hard to find anything between 250 miles and 350 miles. So we'll probably stop short and likely not make it by Tuesday. But that's okay. Wedding is not until Saturday. Just need time to get my nails done. Sister is making me hair appt for Saturday.

OH... must'nt forget to say we had coffee with Linda and Mel this morning at a Starbucks south of Milwaukee!! It had to be a short visit, but was so good to see them!

And when we got to our RV park tonight, a lady from the 60+ thread came to visit! Her name is Karen. She had her surgery the summer of 08 and she's lost 145 lb and is now on maintenance!

I am so disappointed that I forgot to take pictures of Julie, and of Linda and Mel!

But,here are photos of both Karens!

Those pictures of the KAREN`s is great!!! They look like such nice ladies!!! What a great trip.

Sorry EARL was cranky, that`s to be expected on such a long trip. When Peter and I did it, surprising ly we only had ONE really grumpy day, and I just YELLED back at him.... then - it was over...

It will be so cool to get to Buffalo!! YES the weather long range looks good for this weekend... now how about getting together AFTER the wedding? Say next week sometime... would that work for you guys?? We could meet you in Toronto for LUNCH/Dinner.... what do you think?

Gotta work this morning with the KIDDIES cooking class... then my cleaning lady comes today. I havn`t had her in 6 mos.... and she REALLY cleans thoroughly so I can`t wait!!!

Tomorrow is Zumba, Wed is total body core, singing rehersal, Thurs is last minute party plans, then FRIDAY the people start arriving...

Gonna be real crazy for sure!!!

Hi ladies! Just a quick check in.

I got on the scale this morning. 174. That's -2! We'll keep on keepin on.

I spent 3 hours deep cleaning the bathroom. It was a mess! Most of my house is a mess. I'm going to spend a day on each room. Maybe 2 days on the front three rooms. I'll start that in a few minutes. Just had to take a break! It feels good to concentrate on my house though. Something for ME for a change. That sounds dumb. I guess what I mean is I get to see the fruits of these labors. It's not for everyone else. It will drive me crazy when everyone else just trashes it again....but...that's the knocks when you're a mom I guess.

Boys start school on Wednesday. I was thinking .... one of the reasons I stay so busy during August is because I don't have to think about me not going back to school. I miss my classroom. I miss my teacher life. As long as I'm crazy busy in August I don't have time to mope about it. Stupid huh? Oh well.

Okay. Phyl, I can't believe how Zoey has changed your world. I'm surprised you haven't had a dog long before this. You and Earl are just "naturals". Love seeing the pics of her. You're like a new mother taking and showing pics of every new "first". It's so awesome to get to see. And Earl is a big marshmallow! He kills me at how soft he is.

Gotta run. Back to work for awhile. Talk to you later ladies. Have a fun day!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
