3 THINGS FOR TUESDAY!!!

Nicole don't you LOVE facebook

(btw I'm nessa mongold there)

I agree, Nic, nothing like fresh linens!!!!

I can only Facebook at my brother's house, but it HAS helped me reconnect - in fact, our graduating class is having a mini-reunion on Sunday.  Can't wait!!!!

Have a great day!!!

Hugs,

Tia, I wish I had a mom who could do those things for me. As you all know my mom is very ill.  Tell your mom to bring on the sugar free chocolate for your pillow.You are so lucky. I always say any day at the beach is a good day and it doesnt matter about the weather.

Awww, I know, Julie, and I'm SO sorry your Mom is not well. 

S/f chocolates?  Actually, thanks to the sugar alcohols, I do better with a little bit of regular, good quality stuff.

Amen!!!  A bad day at the beach is better than a good day at work!!!!!!

Hugs,

Tia

I'm grateful for:

1.  That I don't look like my driver's license picture anymore!  (I can see my 48 lbs of loss in my face!)

2.  My supportive family.  :)

3.  To have found you guys!  I agree with the other posts that it's so nice to be understood and welcomed.  I usually have a problem with posting because I don't want people to feel I'm intruding.  You guys have never made me feel like that!  Thanks!!!  :)

Hey Jenn!!!

When I went to the MVA post-op, they cut my old license up and let me keep the pic.  So now I carry them both around as reminders. 

48 lbs. is FANTASTIC!!!!!!

For the most part, we ARE a very caring group of people here.  When I joined pre-op, this board was kind of quiet - Mo, Terry M. and I joined forces to make it a more cohesive group.  I have to say that it just took off in ways we couldn't imagine!!  I love it here!!  I've made some lasting friendships that have SO enriched my life!!!  I hope you'll feel that way, too!!

Have a great day!

Tia

I have felt the same way. I feel like sometimes I am intruding on others freindships. I appreciate that everyone is so open but at times I hope I am not bothering anyone. I have felt judged for so long and here I know all of us have gone through the same tough things.I am glad for all who have let me open up and say what I feel no matter if its happy, sad, goods or bad....  Thanks to all of you....

Julie do not make me come to Crofton and SMACK YOU.

you are so dear and so sweet and could NOT bother anyone.  that's your bad head stuff talking.

Nessa!!!

Pick me up on the way and we'll deliver a double-smack to her!!!!

Julie -

Keep in mind that at one time, we were ALL strangers.  It's been through some common interests, but mostly through the "bond" of being overweight, that we found each other. 

I speak for the rest of the board when I say that you are NEVER intruding.  Personally, if I have anything to say that I don't want to say on the board, I'll email or PM the person - as I have to you.  Sometimes, I know it seems like there are inside jokes and whatnot, but we are equal opportunity offenders (LOL!) and have been equally welcoming to everyone who's joined us.

SO PLEASE, STOP WORRYING!!!!  IT'S ALL GOOD - IT'S YOUR BOARD, TOO!!!!

Hugs,

Tia
