****Saturday Roll Call****
Good morning PA and Happy Saturday.
I'm up early. I don't remember when I have been able to sleep late on a Saturday. So I am up and playing on my computer.
I am happy this morning, lost another lb. Tuesday will be my 5 months since surgery and I am down 96 lbs. 43 lbs to go. Weight loss has really slowed down, but I somehow managed to still drop 11 lbs this month, so I happy.
I have gone to the gym and worked out 7 of the last 8 days. I have been doing doing a couple of miles on the treadmill, working the machines and I am up to 80 sit ups. I can't believe I am sitting here contemplating going to the gym again...lol I guess if I am going to be obsessed with something, that gym is not such a bad choice.
I hope everyone stays warm and has a great Saturday.

Good morning Geoff and PA!
Good for you for getting to the gym so often Geoff - your hard work is really paying off!
I'm up early with the whole UTI thing, not able to sleep that well. I'm sure a nap will be in order for later in the day. My pink eye is still bad... but the drops do make it feel better for about an hour after I use them. There is light at the end of this tunnel - I must tell myself that!
Assuming I'm feeling better this afternoon, I'm going to hit the treadmill and elliptical again. I'm doing well with the treadmill and each day I'm trying to add time to the elliptical. It's still kicking my butt, but it'll get better - I'm sure of it!
Other than that, we plan to clean the house this weekend and I have the HUGE task of organizing all of my clothes. I head back to work full time on Monday (decided part time would be a waste... I'm not getting anything done at home!) and need to get my clothes ready. We bought 4 extra clothes racks from ikea a couple of weeks ago so I can have those lined up in our bedroom with smaller sizes. I'm not a morning person and the last thing I need is all my pants too big in the mornings before work. I think I have somewhat professional clothes to last me for the next couple of sizes - but after tha****ch out outlets and talbots... here I come!
I got my hair cut on Thursday and absolutely hate it. I asked for 1 inch or so off... and she cut 4-5 inches off. It's now to the bottom of my ears, but there are no layers or anything. So I think I might head out this afternoon and go to one of those quickie places just to get some layers cut in. I'm dealing... (can't you tell?!?)
Have a wonderful day everyone! Let's be grateful that there is no snow or ice to go along with this nasty cold weather.

Good morning PA and Geoff and Melissa . Its cold as hell and I so hate it! I have a heated mattress pad and an electric blanket but once I am out of bed I am so cold and miserable til I get moving and reach for the coffee I know I am bad its only 2 cups of coffee and its the weekend. Geoff you are doing wonderful bravo to you. Today has me gathering my thoughts as to what direction to go in as I have some computer skills I want to learn and I have the programs loaded here and really need to sit my tushie down and start learning. I have been doing Physical Therapy four times a week due to shoulder surgery and I so need to get myself back to work. I am going stir crazy. And do laundry and all the other things we try and catch up on the weekend. I saw extreme measures last weekend and it was good for those of you looking to see a good movie. Skip ToothFairy we left after 20 minutes it was awful and I am surprised that the Rock and Ashley Judd would be in this movie! I am going to be doing a flannel day today. Flannel shirt and flannel lined dungarees. Want to move to a warm place is my mantra! Melissa sorry you are dealing with the pink eye be careful you don't infect the other one and put cold wet compresses on the eye. The UTI I can remember when my doctor gave me purple pills and it made me pee bright orange as I sang Somewhere Over The Rainbow. Drink lots of water and feel better. Ugh! Bad haircuts drive me crazy but thankfully they can be corrected or grow back I would have stabbed the hairdresser and asked them what math class they skipped! Hang in there Melissa/ Everybody have a great day and stay warm.
Good morning, all!!
Geoff---you're doing great!!! Ever think you'd be so dedicated to going to the gym???
I've been out of town for a few days, so we'll be going to my house today. I need to stop at the post office for the mail and at the library for a book I put on hold mid-Dec and finally came in. I want to get on the treadmill at some point today too. Haven't exercised the past 2 days---tooo cold to go outside to walk.
Have a great day, everyone!!! Stay warm!!
