Thursday Roll Call
Hello everyone
Well today is two very happy things.... It's Friday Eve and....
It's my 2 year anniversary with my band.
Yep two whole years!!! I have lost 140 lbs and my BMI went 54 to 33!!! Thanks to my exercise routine I feel more healthy and strong now then I did when I was 25!!! I can sit in a booth at a restaurant and not feel like a sardine in a can. I can run up a several flights of stairs. I have goals that I never dreamed were possible. I plan on running a 5k!!! I just have to keep trying. Someone at work was talking about how bummed they are to be turning 35 this year. And I said "oh I don't care about age I'm going to be 40 this year" and I was dancing around and this lady said "how can you be so happy about turning 40??" I said "easy I look and feel better at 40 than I did at 30 or even 25" I realized that it's not about age it's about how you feel and how well you take care of your self. If I feel healthy and I stay active then I will look even better at 45 or 50!!!
I went to the doctor and he agreed and increased my migraine medication. I am hoping this new dosage allows me to push myself a little harder in the gym and not worry about getting a migraine. He told me how proud he is of me for trying so hard to change my lifestyle and habits. He said, he has patients that have lost more weight than me but he said of all his patients he sees the most change from me...from my eating, to my exercise, to my attitude and would consider me one of his most successful patients!!! Isn't that nice.
Nancy- I have heard you talking about making ice cream. I thought about buying an ice cream maker. What brand do you have and how do you make the ice cream?
Well see ya later and have a great day!!!!

Good Morning,
After saying yesterday that I don't need an alarm clock, well, I overslep this morning. So much for bragging,
Congrats Crystal on the 2 year mark. You have done fantastic.
Off to work on my Friday. I need to get gas this morning, and I wanted to get it last night, but hubby said wait. So. like a dummy I waited, this morning it is up to 3.65 a gal. I know I really shouldn't listen to him
Have a great safe day,
Hugs, Lisa

Morning Crystal and Lisa and all the rest of the board when they pop in.
We go pick up our tax paperwork after I get out of work but on the way to that we are stopping at Laz Y Boy to get the ball rolling on the purchase of a recliners table combo. We were going to get it last year but did not. I might stop at JoAnn as it is in the same area.

First off way to go Crystal on your two yr band-anniversary. Yesterday I worked out on my Wii fit for like 30 mins which I hadn't done for a while. But on the warm days we had here I was either goin for a walk with my daughter in her joggin stroller or we were out playing ball. I can't wait until the 27th of April I will be goin to my seminar down in Herrin. I am hoping this time nothing will stop me from getting banded.

Good morning and congrats, Crystal!!!!
You are doing very well and are really an inspiration of what positive change will do.

Tomorrow, Todd and I have a date! I am very excited to act like a grown up and go out! Woo Hoo!!!!!
Everyone have a lovely day!

Crystal,
Congrats on your 2 year anniversary and stats! You have done wonderfully and are a real inspiration. Keep up the good work. Your Dr. Comments had to make you feel really good. You are so right, it is all about feeling/being more healthy.
Not much going on up this way. Chloe is around for Spring break. My nephew from Mississippi was in town on Tuesday and we went out to dinner. Hadnt' seen him for 2 years. It was nice to catch up.
Hair cut today and taking half a day off tomorrow to be with Chloe. Looks like a busy weekend. I need to get my taxes done!!!
Have a super day.

Good evening all!!
Congrats to Crystal!! Two years out and you sound so wonderful!
Today I had my 3 month visit. From the last visit I lost another 20lbs!! My blood pressure has consistently been in the normal range.
I am about 2lbs away from 80lbs lost. The 80 was my first goal. I told my hubby when I reached 80lbs I was going to get a personal trainer. I think I will ask my hubby. He has lost 103lbs since June of last yr. He gets up and goes to the gym every morning. I need to face facts and just go!! I would like to loose another 20lbs before June8th! I am taking off to AZ then and I would love to be in a size 16! I would for sure fit in the airplane seat without a belt extension!!! Oh the joys! Funny how fitting in a chair can make one feel so much better.
Tonight, I have church choir practice and I love it. I love the release singing gives. Next yr my daughter can join and that will be great to have her with me.
Tomorrow at 3:15pm, Spring Break officially starts for me. I can not wait. I am ready for a break and to get my house and affairs in order. Need to get everything straightened out!! My house looks like a tornado ran through here multiple times.
Take care!!
