Gloomy Saturday

hey all. well, the weather has been quite dreary....Didn't get out of the house at all today, except to get the mail..Does that count? But, anyway, just wanted to stop in and say hello. Weight Loss is going well..Down to 185 lbs...I move back to Germany early May...and end of May..my husband gets to leave Iraq and return to us in Germany after his 12 mths deployment ends..... YEAH!! We'll be a family again. Anyway, just wanted to say hello to all.

Yeah, it's kind of icky here too!! I went out with my Dad to the mall to get my walking in. That's great on your weight loss!! It seems like you just had surgery!! And with that May will be here before you know it, too!! I know you are excited about being a family again!! Keep thinking about that to get you through these dark dreary days!!! Hugs, Dianne

I'M AN ODD DUCK, BUT I ALWAYS LOVED THE GREY, CLOUDY DAYS ... FELT LIKE A WARM, CALMING BLANKET TO ME ... KINDA PEACEFUL INSTEAD OF DREARY. OH MS HEATHER ... I'M SO HAPPY THAT YOU'RE GOING TO BE BACK AS A FAMILY AGAIN BUT I HATE THAT YOU ARE GOING ALL THE WAY TO GERMANY. YOU'RE STILL GONNA POST ON THE SC BOARD, AREN'T YOU? ... EVEN AFTER YOU MOVE OVERSEAS? CONGRATULATIONS ON THE WEIGHT ... SO, HOW MUCH HAVE YOU LOST TO GET ALLLLL THE WAY DOWN TO 185? I'LL CHANGE YOUR WEIGHT LOSS NUMBER ON THE SC LIST. IT'S BEEN SINCE 1996 SINCE I'VE BEEN THAT LOW ... I GOT DOWN TO 172 #s BACK THEN & THAT'S THE LOWEST I'VE BEEN IN I CAN'T REMEMBER WHEN. MY NEXT GOAL IS 202 AS THAT IS THE WEIGHT I WAS WHEN I MET NICK IN 2000 ... THEN, I'M SHOOTING FOR THE 172 WEIGHT I JUST SPOKE OF ... THEN, IT'S ALL DOWNHILL INTO UNCHARTED TERRITORY. I'M STILL IN THIS LONG, LONG (26 DAYS) STALL, BUT I MAY BE MOVING DOWN AGAIN. I'M WITHIN .20 OF A POUND AWAY FROM MY LOW OF 222.60. THE GOOD THING IS THAT IF THIS HAD HAPPENED BEFORE SURGERY, I'D NOW HAVE GAINED ALL MY LOST WEIGHT BACK + EVEN MORE. NOW, POST OP, I JUST WIGGLED UP & DOWN 2 TO 3 POUNDS & NEVER REGAINED ANYTHING. SO, ONCE THIS STALL BREAKS, I'LL BE GOING DOWN AGAIN ... NOT HAVING TO RE-LOSE WEIGHT + EVEN MORE! THIS WLS IS THE BEST! GOD BLESS & MAY THOSE DREARY DAYS TURN INTO DAYS OF BLESSING, MS HEATHER! DAWN & NICK
