family
Hi everyone, Well I am back home from my NJ visit with family and friends. They were all pretty shocked at the difference in me since Dec. My Mom was so happy she kept calling me skinny minnie! Not a word that I am used to associating with myself. My sister just said WOW, my cousins who both had the surgery were so happy for me. My other cousin who is trying to get approved for the surgery said wow I have another skinny cousin. I feel so bad for him, he really needs the surgery and he has sleep apnea, and has to lose 50 lbs before the md will do the surgery and he is having a hard time doing that. He is addicted to sugar-he admits it. I tried encouraging him but didn't want to push too hard. I know I didn't like it when people did that to me. My boyfriend who lives in NJ said that I looked like his "old Laura" from before I moved out here 9 yrs. ago and said how wonderful I looked, even though he loved me fat, he said he was thrilled how good I look. So, now time to get back to the gym, I actually missed going. Even though I did walk a lot in the mall-(not like the malls here) they have about 500 stores in the malls in NJ. So I did get some exercise. I am going to really try and make the NP mtg in Sept. see everyone then. L
