Anniversary/ Moving Update for me

O.K. It's five months out for me. I'm down 77 pounds give or take. I have been able to buy clothing in a size 18 and I was into a 30/32 before surgery. The other night my husband and I went to a drive in theater. Since we're moving our coats are literally packed away, besides, it's summer right? Well, my hubby is the kind of guy that doesn't leave the house without at least a sweater. I was outside of the car (yep still smoking) and got chilled. The ONLY thing in the car that was warmer than the t-shirt I had on was his sweater. I put off getting it out because I thought I'd only get it over my head and maybe my chest. Has anyone noticed that it's been kinda cool lately? Any how I finally gave in and got the sweater. Guess what.... I got it on and without a lot of wrenching too! I mean it is rather form fitting but I think FITTING is the word here. I told him that he needs to take inventory of his sweaters and stuff because the next thing he knows I'm gonna be fitting into them too! I told him that the day that I accidently put his jeans on will be a top-of-the-world-day. Of course I also said that for the first 20 minutes he wouldn't get a look at them because I'd be dancing too much! The move is progressing. Nicely? No, I can't say that until I'm outta here for good. Hopefully that will be today. Hence my anniversary post a day early. I think the fairy that brings boxes to my door ought to be shot. He waits until I'm happily sleeping thinking that I've filled my last box to drop more off at my front door. I think I put my brain in a box like two or three weeks ago and still haven't located it yet. No big loss there.... I mean nothing can really bother me if I don't know where my brain is right? I'll just put my car on auto pilot when it comes time to make the drive this afternoon, it's been there enough to know the way! Any how, I'm doing fairly good, it could be lots worse so I just try to smile (or cry if it's warrented) and let things slide. 77 pounds ain't to shabby! I don't know when I'll be able to post again but I've been lurking and kind of keeping up. I'll continue to do so as time permits. Love and Hugs and well wishes to all, Gayle

Way to go on the weight loss!!!!!!!! Isn't it great to take your man's clothes. My boyfriend hates when i steal his shirts, and now they are too big for me. And his jeans they fall off me. I just love it! Keep up the good work!

It's so good to hear from you! I've missed your humor! Congratulations on your weight loss progress! Joy -61

Gayle, my lady, I am happy to hear from you! I hope you will be able to stop in more often (look who's talking!) and give us another update on how your move went. We need another picture of you too, dearie!! Show us what 77 lbs less of you looks like!!! Dina
