What shall we do??

if anything, to celebrate our birthday month in September?? I think for me I am going to update my profile with my account of this past year, I wish I knew how to do side by side pictures, I would do a monthly pictural as I have tried to take a picture every month Any other ideas hopefully that are more creative than that?? By the way, yes, I have been told before that I should be an activities director on a cruise ship!!! So if you all just say, settle down and stop that planning business, I won't get my feelings hurt. But I thought it would be fun Too bad Michael isn't around much any more and is so busy, it would be fun to update our website with everyone's before and current pictures but I know that would be alot of work for him -- Oh well something to think about! love donna ps My period still doesn't work -- I think they are going to fix my keyboard on Wednesday I've liked saying to people 'I don't have a period any more' and then 'oh goodness no, not that kind, but I don't have that kind either'!!! Ha ha - that is about as personal as I think I'll get!!

Let's see - how about a WAY before and after? *lol* Figure out how old we were the LAST time we weighed what we weigh now, and post a picture from way back then. I'd have to find teen pics for my current weight - I'm pretty sure I was sixteen the last time I weighed this. And then, we'll all make a wish for the NEXT year. Remember when we put down what we wanted out of this? To be able to walk our dogs, and sit down in a chair without secretly praying it was sturdy enough, and buy a bra at Victoria's Secret? Let's make some new goals, now that we're headed into maintenance, nearing goal, and plastic surgery lands. What will make this next year the best ever? --BT

well aren't you the creative one (and by the way, where have you been - missed you!) That sounds fun, love donna

I say we have an "anniversary" Santa gift swap! If people are willing to privately email each other's address to me, or Donna. Like people do at Christmas time when you do secret Santa. Only this would be, WLS anniversary Santa! Buy your Secret WLS pal a gift under say 15 bucks, maybe related to wls or exercise, etc??? This could be fun. We could get a list of who wants to do it, we'll put the names in a hat, and secretely, privately email who you have to send to secretly and when we all get the gifts, we post them on one certain day. It's just an idea. I did it once via the internet on a pregnancy web board. We moms had been together through our entire pregnancies and for the first birthday event, we did it and it was great fun. What do you think? Paula

i'm game. let me know if it's going to be. Koukla thanks

That is a neat idea ! I am in too.

Paula, I love this idea, and it could be just whoever wants to participate!! Sounds fun I'm not quite sure how it works - but I say this is a good idea!! love donna

I've done this twice, once through a pregnancy board and once through a frienship board (we were all stay at home moms at the time) It was fun, I just don't think I can do it, I've had no income for the past month and don't have anything to spend right now. Rachel

We could do virtual gifts instead. Such as: http://www.designerresaleboutique.com/pictures/3-Designer-Resale-Fur-Selec.jpg A fur coat for you

OOOH, we could each design a "new look" for one other person... get a current picture of our person and then search for what we think would look good on them, swap the links to the different items and then have them go try them on in the stores and get pictures taken in them and share those also... hehe... that could be REALLY fun.
