Where has time gone??

So much time has gone by since I have even ventured to this board!  Guess you can blame Facebook for that one!   I see so many new names and faces and recognize very few of us 'old timers'. 

It has been over three years since I had my RNY and still have no regrets.  I bounce around about 5-10 pounds but have been at the same weight for about a year now.  I could stand to loose a few more pounds, but in all actuality, I am HAPPY with how I look!  I went from a size 32 to a 12 - how could I not be!?!?  Well, okay, somethings I can get into that are a size 10, but what can I say???  Since RNY my life has gone through so many changes - all for the better.  I got divorced, been through several 'relationships' that didn't work out and have finally found one that treats me very well, became more active and just am enjoying my life!  I am golfing again, something I have not done since college days.  I got my own personal helmet and chaps and enjoy riding when the weather permits.  I love being outside in the winter playing in the snow with my son.  Of course, still cannot stand the cold.  Question a lot of newbies ask over and over (been in your shoes!).  Would I do it again - IN A HEARTBEAT!!!

Hey stranger, how is the candle barn?  I think 2 fires is enough.

LOL!  I cannot agree more!!  Needless to say, it's clean, clean, clean!!  Had to wash everything in there.  And yes I mean everything - ALL the containers.  Took several days.  But I did find some containers that I did not know I had! 

We have to get together sometime soon for lunch!  Call me!

thanks for your story

your an inspiration!

Welcome back and stick around.

Hey Girlie~

I'm guilty of the Facebook thing too.  Glad to hear you are doing well.  You should be very proud - you have done an amazing job.

Just wanting to say HI to ya, too!!
Speaking of facebook, I have one also, and so many of my friends on there try to get me to do the farming thingy....don't really know what it is called.  They all say they are addicted to taking care of their farm.  I have so much on my plate I don't want to get addicted to that also!! LOL  
I'd rather be addicted to OH ~ I learn so much.
Glad you are doing good after 3 years.  Sounds like a success story. 
Thanks for sharing,
God Bless,

Hi Shell:

     It has been a very long time since I've seen you post or emailed with you. I'm glad to see life is treating you so very well these days. It is true that we tend to go forward and get so involved in life that we lose track of "old friends" not only here oh OH but in other aspects of life. It looks like most of your life changes have taken you in a positive direction. I too have gotten caught up in life and often wonder how those that helped me along through phases of my journey are doing now themsleves.

     Keep looking forward, enjoying all the experiences you can. Eating up life and all it has to ofeer is much more fullfilling than eating at Taco Bell is filling. Your definitely a success story. Hope to hear more from you soon.
