All I can say is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!  I can't believe how much my life has changed.  I still have a hard time believing it's even me......I saw myself in pictures from camping and jeepers I can't believe it's me....... Camping by the way was great EXCEPT for the skeeters.......We just went out to Lake Marion and thats only 10 miles from Hutch.  we went to the cities sat to look at camp sites around there and went to Unique.....my favorite store.........When we got back we took the boys swimming,and  I got some sun......I played badmitton, catch, and rode my 13 year old sons bike and went for a bike ride with my 6 year old.....now mamma wants a bike.....I can't believe the things I can do.....

I can't believe all the bones I have HOLY JEEPERS.......It is amazing.......I am getting back on track with my eating I went from 300 lbs to 175 then back up to 181 and currently right now 170.......  I still have alot of things going on.......  Alot of times when food does comfort me.  My dads girlfriend is coming to spend the weekend with us  this next weekend and I am so excited.  I talk to her about 2 times a week.  I can't believe it will be 7 months since my dad passed away I  miss him so much..... They investigated my brother and decided to drop everything due to he will end up with it anyway so that sucked........He still gets away with everything.......But one thing I have that he will never have is the wonderful memories that I shared with my father all the times I spent at the hospital, holdong his hand, washing is pretty hair.....my dad had gorgeous hair........All the nurses said that up there.....

I am so THANKFUL for the weight loss surgery I would never be doing the things I am doing if it wasn't for that........ My hubby has been doing great with his diet as well and thats good because he has been having alot chest pain off and on and they are doing more tests this week to see if it is his heart......I told him I couldn't lose him too.....My gosh you would have to put me in a nut hut I think.......Anyways I better go get dressed I have kids coming soon........Thanks to everyone for all your love and support............

Hugs to all,

Marsha

Marsha, Marsha, Marsha....

I'm glad you made it to Lake Marion. I've gone fishing there a couple of times in the past month. Just right off the dock. Its beautiful and quiet there. Its about 10 miles from my place, too. Just great to sit there and soak up the sun.

WOW to you!!!! You have endured a lot this past year and a half. Ups and downs. Very admirable. Tons of hugs to you.

It was great having breakfast last weekend. Great to catch up. Now we will have to do it again .... Soon! Saturdays and Sundays I'm usually hauling out to Dunn Brothers - Hutch really needs a Starbucks. Or perhaps take a weekend day trip out to Unique. I love that place, too! 50% off on holidays, 25% off on Mondays. Wait, that might be Valu thrift store in Sun Ray. But I think Unique does the same thing, too.

Talk with you soon! Tons of hugs.

WOW! What an inspiration!
I am so glad to hear that things just keep getting better! Isn't it great to be out there and ACTIVE! Making family memories is what it is all about! So kudos to you    
for focusing on the positives ~ your hubby and kids, and cherishing the time you had with your Dad! I look forward to meeting you at one of the OH gatherings!
