Have not been on here in a while. So sorry for that..

WOW it has been a while since I been to OH.  I been so busy doing that summer thing, it just never seem to be enough time in the day. I really hope everyone is doing well.  Here is what is going on in my life.  COOKOUT, PARTY, WEDDING SHOWER, WEDDINGS, MORE COOKOUT  The list go on and on .  Have to say this summer has been a blast so far.  2 more days and I go on vacation.  So as you can see I been one busy girl. Now on to the good stuff. 

  I am down 193lbs whoooooooooooohooooooooooooooooo  Next step is to get some skin removed.  I am trying for Jan 2010.  I have 3 really good doctor that have wrote letter saying that I need this skin removed for medical reason.  Major back and neck problems going on.  P.T. is helping some but still not enough.  I been taking  muscle relaxers and sometime pain medication.  I really hate taking any kind of drugs but , I am doiing what I have to do. After P.T. I tell you the pain meds are  so welcomed. lol...  All and All I will put up with it for I have never felt better about myself in a long time as I do now.  I  still say this is the best thing I have ever done having gastric bypass saved my life.   Now for my other half CHIP.  He has lost 60lbs  so far. He is doing so well when he went for his second fill they didn't give him it because he has lost 8lbs since the 1st fill.  1month.  I am so proud of him. 

I am also happy because in this pst year and some odd months I have made the best friends from here.  My second family 
well, that is what is up in my life I will try to make more time to be on here more .
love you all
