cleaning for the big party

Today Lee and I will be changing the livingroom around we are trying to use what days he has off to get ready for the party on the 25th.
I have been avoiding the scale again LOL I know I am feeling wonderful and even my army pants are getting bigger in the waiste.
Sometimes the scale can make me happy and sometimes not but I know I am doing all the right things.
Just even have a scale in my house is something I never thought I woud have.
Part of me wants to see where I am and then there is a part that says I am feeling good and not to worry about those darn numbers.
A friend the other day said I looked like I was 160lbs OMG hard to belive someone sees me like that.
I also have to keep in mind about the extra skin I haul around with me too.
I do think my legs are going down some with the help of wrapping them and taking my fluid pills.
My favorite place to hang out these days is in the bathroom LOL
My legs do get pretty tight feeling during the day with the bandages but that is what they are there for.

Hi Annie!  I hope you get a lot accomplished today!  I've made my week's menu and grocery list so I'm getting ready to shut the computer down to clean house myself.  Need to tackle our master bedroom and bathroom, then Eli's room.  I'm really hesitating about putting away our shorts, capris, tank tops, etc. just yet, which I know is SILLY!  I *should* do it today, but don't know that I will. 

I love your perspective about the scale!  Why let numbers dictate whether you feel good and feel good about yourself?!  Bravo!  You are looking wonderful and, best of all, you are DOING wonderful. 

HI Annie!
I have today off so I am planning to catch up on household paperwork and get some housework done here too. I have already moved the couch away from the heat radiator in the livingroom in prep for having to turn on the heat sometime in the near future. WE have already quit using the air conditioner for the most part. SO I am sure the heat will be next. And I have to start househunting. We need to move or renew our leaase at the end of November. I would like to move to a smaller place but DH would rather just keep paying too much rent than move. Sigh! See you soon!

Annie,

Wow sounds like you have a big day today... can you even imagine doing this before your WLS?  I know you feel great and I'm glad you're not living by the numbers, if you're feeling good and doing the right things you're doing great!!!!!  Good luck with your legs!

Have a great weekend!

Sheryl
