Ahhhhhh, camping!

Well, I am back from camping.  A whole week spent in Fort Bragg.  Goodness it was fun!  I had to blast back for my WLS seminar.  That was totally worth the drive back!  I have an appointment on Tuesday with the nurse counselor, hopefully the nutritionist later this week and then also getting my labs done.  Had been thinking about Lap-Band but after the seminar, some consultations with people who have had each and a long conversation with my husband, we have decided to go RNY.  Lifestyle issues mainly.  RNY fits better with my goals for the rest of my life. Back to camping - I managed to lose 8 lbs!  Must have been all that fresh air, naps and walks on the beach!  Getting my butt up out of my work chair for a week must have helped (I'm a Foreman's Construction Clerk for a major utility)  We spent 4 hours on Saturday flying a kite!  Along with 100's of other people.  Seeing all the kites high in the air, all the various types of kites.  Mine was a Dragon Kite from Costco and it was awsome! I have another whole week off to take care of all these appointments, make 6 blankies for a Make-A-Wish Charity acution (the last 3 brought in $225!!!!) and more walking, water and appointments. Maureen!

Sounds like you're definately on the right track Maureen. Congrats on the 8 pounds and enjoy Fort Bragg. Sue
