Merry Christmas Carolyn! THAT is ONE lucky little boy!! But isnt it worth the joy you see on his little face? LOL..I remember all those Xmas days with my son- and now at 21 he moved away to Illinois before Thanksgving, and these are my first holidays without him- much less not having him around the house. He is coming home 12/27 for a week, and Im trying to decorate my house like I did when he was a little kid..He will be surprised! I already decorated my front door- like a big package- all in gold wrapping paper and red velvet ribbons and big red velvet bow! He's never seen that before! lol AND it's been in the 60s the last 4-5 days here! 62 yesterday and 60 expected again today! I hope this is going to be a mild winter! Have a great holiday & new year! Hugs, Donna

How is everyone doing? Well life has been very bizzy for me. I hope everyone has been doing great. I just read Tammys last post and I too have been rolling back and forth between 182.5 and 185 for a while. I went to the doctor last week and his scale said I weighed 190.3 but my scale said 185 that morning. I can't believe I gain 5 pounds in 10 hours. The nurse said it was because of the meals and the liquids I had that day. I still don't believe it. I've finished Christmas shopping for my son Rolen. He have asked for every toy he could think of and like a real dummy I have filled he's list. But ladies I'm finish with him and everyone else will be getting gift certificates. The weather here in north Texas has been really crazy. Today the temp was up to 78 degrees and tuesday the high temp suppose to be know higher than 58 to 60 degrees. But hay thats the way we do it here in cowtown Fort Worth and Big D-Dallas. You ladies have a great week and if I don't get a chance to log on again before Christmas have a merry...merry Christmas. Take Care Carolyn (Jc C.)

I am so glad you like it. I was worried about the Juice Plus. They are Fruits and Vegtable in capsule. I have been taKing them sice 6 month post OP. Let me know if you like them. I know there is a bariatric doctor that has his patients take them, I just cant eat enough fruits and vegis to get recommend amounts in my body. I am so glad the candles match your room, funny I got candles thet match my room too. It was really fun shopping for you and you look awesome. Have a very happy holiday. Diana

Geez this year has flown by! I haven't bought one christmas gift yet, besides my secret santa gift. I have got to get on the ball! I haven't had time to fart lately it seems! My kids are driving me crazy with all the DRIVING I have been doing! I still have to make 3 fleece blankets, make my rum cakes, my cookies, make some christmas ornaments, oh yeah, and buy my kids some presents! sheesh! I get tired just thinking about it. After christmas, I am going to take a vacation somewhere. Just me for a couple of days. I am so stressed right now it's really not that funny. I am trying really hard to find time for me but it's been extremely difficult. I have a massage gift certificate that I got for my bday in Feb that is still sitting here on my desk. I think I might use it after the holidays... I am soooo tired and we have two more weeks of celebrating... ugh! Happy Holidays everyone.. I love you all!!! Lori
