Anybody out there???

Hey ya'll! Just thought I'd say hi. Boards are a bit dull lately! How is everyone doing? *hugs* April

Hey April! How are you doing. How is the Insurance hunt going. Has it been submitted yet? Everything is fine in this direction. I go to the Dr tommorrow for the treaded monthly weigh in! Lets not even talk about how bad I have slacked on exercising and sticking to the diet. I am looking into getting a punching bag for my house. I could use it for exercise and to get rid of Stress-- which I have a lot of!!! Other than that, not much of a change here. How did you like the snow we got?? I actually got like 3-4 inches. My family, who lives 10 miles south from me got none. The news didn't exactley tell the truth about that but I was happy to get some. And it stayed around for days. I hope everything is going good with you and everyone else on here. Talk to you later. Misty

Hi Misty, All is well over this way. I contacted Centennial. They haven't submitted anything yet. They're backed up because one of the insurance specialists is on jury duty...said they should send it out this week. Good luck at your doc appointment! I have one in the morning tomorrow, just to check my blood pressure. I have really high BP even on meds. Don't stress so much about the diet/exercise thing. I always worried that my PCP would yell at me for not losing any weight consistently, but she didn't. Why else would we need WLS if we could lose weight consistently? I loved the snow, though I didn't get out in it. Stayed home with some DVDs (the snow knocked out our satellite reception) and just lounged around. Talk to ya later!

Hi April, still doing what I do best, . I have been searching the Mate1.com and chatting with a man from my area. That gave me some much needed confidence. He knows I had the surgery and is understanding that I am losing weight and want to have a healthier life. I go to Maryville tomorrow for my first one month appointment after surgery for my weigh-in and measurements. I can't wait. I have gone from 26/28 pants to a size 22 in one month. Hurray, this surgery really works and I want to tell everyone I see. Received 3" of snow, but mostly gone except in the mountains around me. It was a pretty site at one time. Off to do some laundry and make me some soup. Still having trouble with soft foods. Love ya, kathy

Hi Kathy, congratulations on the weight loss! I am soooo ready to be there myself. I would love to be in a 22! I'm in a 28 right now. A very tight 28 at that. I've been a 28 since I was 18 years old LOL and since then I've gained a good 50lbs. It's amazing how I've managed to stay the same size with the weight gain. I hope this man you're chatting with is worthwhile. I've had a couple of online "romances" myself long before I married. It wasn't exactly the best experience for me, but I've heard a million people say how they found their love online. I do believe it is possible. I hope he's everything you're looking for. So far he sounds supportive of a healthier you. Keep us posted! *hugs* April
