Talk about late, it is a couple hours away from being Tuesday already, but just had to put my 2 cents in. Everyone is doing so great. Nice to see the inches and pounds being shed. For me this week, it was a 4 pound loss. Surgery- 339# Last week-241# Today-237# No pre op diet or anything like that so have lost 102# since surgery. I will take it. Good night all.....Gay

Hello Ladies, I have had a heck of a day at work!!! It was a 11 hour day and it will be long days all this week and to top it off it is spring break and my hubby is at home with the kids. This is where I would like to be. I usually have a very flexible schedule but, of course, not this week. Anyway, enough complaining.... here is my good news.... Last week 207 Today 202!!!!!!!!! That is only 3 pounds until I hit 199!!! not that I am counting. Tara
