Sounds like all of us are on the same "scale". I'm at the top of my range, too. Having a terrible time with the snacking -- can't seem to stop buying those darn pringle potato chips!!! Work is slow, but have had a couple of good sales-- so all is well for this week. Nothing really going on at home.. Dinner in & some TV tonight. Have to take Fur Baby to the vet tomorrow morning for a follow up on her ears. Other then that, all is the same ole, same ole. Have a good day!

Good Wednesday Everyone,
Can't believe it is already the middle of the week. I am as always grateful to have woke up this AM. Today I am so grateful for all the things that I can now do since my WLS. I think I seem to take them for granted now and they seem normal which wasn't the case at all when I had the additional 140 lbs. I am grateful that I can go pretty much anywhere and buy clothes, that I can fit into a booth at any restaurant, that I can get in and out of any car with ease. Grateful that I can get up and off the floor from a sitting position without crawling to hold on to something. Grateful I can run ( if need be ), fit into any restroom stall, paint my toe nails, tie my shoes, wrap a normal bath towel around my body, find knee boots that actually fit my calves, cross my legs....I could go on and on about things that I can now do that I only dreamed of before my WLS. Most can add to this list not take meds that you took before WLS also. I was one of the lucky ones that didn't take meds before my WLS. PLEASE share what you are grateful for today or think about what you can now do and tell us about that. Have a blessed hump day.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good morning,

Scale hanging around my top range since I can't stop snacking. Think after dinner I need to put duct tape on my mouth.
Have a great day!

If I was going to give up being a "scale *****" for Lent - I've blown that one already.
Work and maybe catching some treadmill time when I get in.
Go do what you gotta do!
Good Tuesday Everyone, Hope your having a good week and Happy Fat Tuesday. Today I am grateful that God allowed me to open my eyes today and wake up to another day to make better choices than yesterday. Life is truly what we make it. It is full of choices that WE have made for ourselves....whether good or bad. SO if your not happy with the way your life is going....make different and better choices. Today I am grateful for second chances on all kinds of things in my life that today brings. Grateful for Obesity Help, my WLS, the choices for different surgeries that you have today, grateful for my family, friends, my fur babies, that I can do so many things that I only dreamed about over 8 yrs ago before my WLS, for my maintenance and no major re-gain. Grateful that my life is going better than it was last year. Grateful I have my eye appointment this AM and hopefully my catarics will be ready to come off. Grateful for life in general. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a blessed and safe day. Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good morning
Same ole agenda for me. Calendar light on meetings so might actually get some work done.
DH is planning to go to auction today. He's still not suppose to lift more than 10 lbs are do repetitive motions so if he gets a unit he will have to get help clearing it out. He better bundle up.

Survived yesterday without incident but it was cold! More cold today but not as bad. Won't have to wait 30+ minutes for ice to melt off my truck today.
Scales were below the red line this morning! 
Go do your thing but bundle up before you leave the house!
Hi Everyone,... Yes it is cold out today. I made into work... worst of the roads were in Lewisville. Once I got out on I-35 South roads slowly improved. Thermal shirt and pants on under my jeans/shirt, space heater pointed at me and I'm still COLD.. Safe travels for those of us that had to drive into work ... Stay in if you can...
