1 Month out and 30 pounds down!! Definitely Hot Air Ballooning Again. I went on a private balloon ride and they ask HOW MUCH YOU WEIGH . I want to go back to New Mexico, call that company, make a reservation and be at least 100 lbs lighter). Wind Jammer Cruise. (bring a collection of swim suites where the size doesn't begin with a 2(22, 24)) Get my bike fixed and go bike riding with DH. Parasail Horse Back ride without breaking the horse I LOVE MY RNY

Hi Darice, Glad to hear that you are doing so well.  Will you be at the GS meeting on Saturday? I'd love to talk to you more about hot air ballooning.

I've been thinking about this alot the last few nights as I lay in bed not able to fall asleep (I've seen the clock pass 2:30am too many times this week)!! I guess my top 5 would be: - Hot Air Balloon ride - seems to be a theme here!! - NASCAR ride around (don't know if I have the guts to drive it myself but I know I want to ride in one!!) - Travel to every state (I'm heading to San Francisco in a few weeks - check that one off) & several European countries (Italy, Germany, Spain, Ireland, Scotland & London to name a few). - Tap dance again - I used to be pretty darn good!! - Para-sailing

Sounds like I'm going to be pretty busy in the years to come!!! Cece

They sound great to me....tap dancing....I have't done that in about 30years....omg...maybe its about time I try that again too?  If only there were a few more days in every week!

My List would be very simple... to be able to walk into a regular store and buy clothes off the rack and not have to finance a loan to pay for a single pair of pants....to not have to always seek out a chair without arms... my list is way too long but those are a couple
