Join us - Weekly Weigh in 10/29
Ouch, Deb!!! Sounds terrible! In the past few years I've had both my big toenails come off but that was due to running. I think I tend to hold my toe up and it was rubbing against the top of my shoes. Still, I don't remember it being as painful as what you decribe!!! I'm glad!!! Snacking can be a big issue with me too. I've always wanted "just a little something" an hour or so before bedtime and I still have to fight that habit but often I still have something - even if I'm not hungry!

Hello everyone
Sorry I missed the last few weigh in's my Mondays have been very busy. I have several of my support group meetings on Monday nights, so by the time I get home from the gym and get ready to go to the meetings it gets late. Anyway I am doing fine, I went to my doctor for my 1 year check up (a month early), and he went crazy when he saw how much weight I had lost. He was so pleased about my weight loss he gave me the green light to go ahead and schedule my hernia and skin removal surgery in December. He told me that because of all the excess skin hanging around the area of my hernia it will have to be removed and pulled tight in order for the hernia to heal properly. The best part of it will be that my insurance will pay for it all including the skin removal because it is medical needed. I have an appointment to see the plastic surgeon next week who will be assisting my doctor who will be doing the hernia surgery. I will post when I find out more. I am looking forward to November our anniversary month to see how everyone is doing. I hope everyone is doing well and hope you all have a great week. Alan H.
