Jeanna, so sorry to hear about your job. I am getting laid off in May and have done nothing about it but stick my head in the mud. UGH! 1. Were you tempted by the Halloween candy? Did you partake in any? Yes I was tempted, yes I partook. I do not dump at all on sugar or fat. I ate way more than I should. Yesterday was better I only had a little. 2. What are you doing different for Thanksgiving this year since surgery? Last year I was doing my 6mo Kaiser Options class. So really I started last year cutting back on all the food. I lost 30lbs. during those 6mo. The most in the class. 3. Have you started your Christmas/holiday shopping yet? I have bought a few little things. Not much really. 4. How close are you to your driver's license weight? I am below it. It says 250 and I have not been that weight in over 10 years. I am now 223. Yipee!! Less than when I met my DH. 5. Are you having any problems sleeping? I usually have trouble falling asleep but once I am asleep I am OK. I can wake up to use the restroom and fall back asleep too. My main problem is my stupid neighbors who wake me up every morning slamming their wooden screen door over and over again. They are driving me crazy!!! MichiGirl
