Helllloooo!

What a treat to log on and see that I am not forgotten! I assure you that you all are not forgotten by me either! For me life could not be better. I just returned from a vacation that is the fulfillment of a long-time dream. Dan & I just spent 3 weeks in Europe. We visited Rome, Venice, Florence and Naples Italy, and Athens, Rhodes, Messina, Santorini, and Mykonos Greece. We walked all over at a pace that would not have been remotely possible before WLS. We sampled local cuisine and even pasta and gelato, and I found that small portions were satisfying without setting off dumping (OK--most of the time). I only gained 2 lbs--probably a credit to all the exercise. So now the challenge is to cut the carbs and maintain the exercise. Life is good. I hope that all of you are doing as well. I will try to be around a bit more to share support... Joy
