I appreciate your kindness. I had just found out the news that day and was in too muck shock to share at that time. Believe me, I don't plan to stay away from you guys. I consider you my extended family. I will see you all soon~~~~~~Kim

Hi Kim,  missed you at the meeting.  Sorry, things are tough for you right now.  I will say a rosary for you tonight.  I hope things get better for you.  KellyJo is right,  coming to the meetings, can really help to get things off your shoulders.  Sometimes its all that it takes.  To be surrounded by those who care and willing to listen and maybe someone will have some words to help you.  We love you and care about you!!  Your friend, Eldy

Linda, it was awesome seeing you there!  I had such a great time also.  I missed last months meeting, and it seems like forever until the next one.  The people in the group really become important to you.  I love them.  I hope you will come regularly.  I have missed you.  You look sooooo good my friend!  It was funny that i didn't recognize you!  Take care and see you later!!  Your friend, Eldy

Topic: SF dark chocolate pieces at Job Lot!!
Found something great today at Job Lot.  They had Sugar free dark chocolate chunks in a clear bag with a blue label (they are hersheys but the label says angel treats or something) for 2 bucks!! It is a 20 oz bag.  Way cheaper than any on-line price I have seen and I opened a bag (i bought 6) and they taste like chocolate - normal chocolate!!  

They will be great when creating holiday cookies and desserts!!

Hi guys...............congrats to you all on your weight loss successes. I wish I could've made it to the meeting but I just got dealt a crappy hand in the health department and really needed sometime to myself to let it sink in. It still hasn't but thankfully have an appt with a specialist on Wed. I won't be at the Miriam meeting next week either...........gotta work!!!! Anyway, please keep me in your thoughts and prayers, I need as much as I can get to get through this. Again, congrats to all you "losers"!!!~~~~Kim

hi everyone...

now that most of you can put a face to this green m&m.... i just wanted to say ....

i had a great time at the meeting the other night. i am so glad my husband suggested it!!!  
it was funny to walk in and both julie and eldy thought i was the speaker for the evening, and didn't recognize me at all!!!!   (they were both my angels for my surgery)   so that definately gave me a boost! 

everyone looks so good, and the numbers are amazing!!!  although, that's not what it is all about,  it is still mind boggling that we are just dropping the weight everyday!  and feeling great about ourselves!!!

i also want to send a big congrats out to julie for getting her certification go ahead!!!!    awesome job!!!  

i wish everyone a happy thanksgiving...

i know this year, i am thankful for  not only having this surgery and regaining my life back, but for all my family and friends that have supported me through this journey and that are continuing to be there for me! 
(of course, amongst other things, lol)

ok, i think i said enough..lol (as you can see from the meeting i like to chat,  lol )

take care and be well!!!!
