just dropping by

I have not posted or lurked in a while, just thought I'd catch you up to what has been going on. Hubby and I adopted in January/06, so I have a rambunctious 6 year old to take care of now, and my weight has sorta taken second fiddle to dear daughter. It has slowed but from looking at other posts it appears I am not alone, I thought it was the transition of becoming a mom, feeling like I can eat "like I used to". I am down 159 pounds, down to 260. I have about 75 to go to get to a weight doc and I would be happy with.... so I am lurking again, and looking forward to spring weather to help with the last 75.... I really do need to post a new pic... hope everyone is well.

Wow, a six year old! Wish you and your new family well. Before you know it, it'll be summer, and then fall school year begins. You're in for a wild ride.. two of them I would imagine. (WL & Daughter)

I wondered where you were! Glad to hear about your adoption! I have two adopted sons myself. My niece is adopted from China as well! I was just posting that I have about 80 lbs to get to goal myself! It is a hard road for us heavy weights, but I do still feel so much better than I did. I am looking forward to the end of the losing part so I can start working on the plastics. I am glad you are back and hope you stay with us! Wendy

So good to hear from you! I was wonderin' where you went. Congratulations on the adoption of your daughter. How wonderful! I'm so happy for you & your family! I have a 6-year old son, so I know what you mean about rambunctious Never a dull moment And another Congratulations on your weight loss! 159 pounds in nine months is phenomenal! Hope we see you more often Hugs, Pam
