Thanks
Thanks to all for the birthday wishes. I don't get onto OH as much as I used to. I spend more time on Facebook, so if you want to make me a friend, I'm listed as Janice Messner Hilewsky. Hubby says I spend way too much time on the computer. I guess he's right, I should be doing more exercizing.
I'm maintaining a consistant 90 pound weight loss, sometimes it's 93, but usually around 90., which I'm very pleased with. Hopefully I'll be able to maintain this for years to come like several of you have been able to do. I don't always eat 'right' but at least I can't eat too much anymore. I know when to stop now. I'm having trouble controlling my carb cravings, and caving into them, but I keep a constant eye on the scales and my labs have been really pretty good, so I feel I've been a success.
Hope you all had a great time at the conference. I wish I could have made it there.

Jan - I just friended you on Facebook.
Congratulations on maintaining your loss and your success. I can totally relate to the carb cravings things. I swear I could eat a big bag of pretzels every day! and crackers....I have been on a cheese & cracker kick lately too. But like you said, at least I can stop now and not eat a whole bag of chips like I used to. I remember in years past going on vacation I would easily gain 10 lbs but I just got back from my 2 week honeymoon and am 2 lbs lighter than when I left and I feel like I ate a lot!

And now I just friended you :), can't believe we never were!
How was the honeymoon? When will we see pics? The pics of your wedding were great, you were gorgeous. Did you ever think you'd look like that? You must have felt fabulous! It looked like all the kids enjoyed it as much as you guys did!
Congrats and Welcome back!

Hi Edie!
The honeymoon was fabulous!! I have never taken 2 weeks off from work all at once like that...hard to come back and lots of catching up to do now that I'm back! I'll post some honeymoon pictures on FB soon. We went to Palm Desert, CA. It was hot but CA is beautiful. Lots of mountains! We went to a few ball games, hiking, Disneyland and just hung out.
