ROLL CALL

It sure has been quiet in here. I have been busy with work and I also had out of town company. The weather is beautiful here, in the 80's. I have planted flowers and have been pruning. It is beginning to feel like Spring/Summer. Here are some questions for those of you who care to answer: 1. What food do you crave on a regular basis? 2. What is your favorite TV show? 3. If you could be ANYWHERE else right now, where would it be? 4. Has having WLS met all of your expectations? 5. Where are you as far as your Weight loss goal?? Blessings, Suzzette

God bless you all as we get ready for Easter. Peg

Hi Suzzette, it has been quiet in here Maybe we all have spring fever. 1. Well, I was eating wheat ritz with peanut butter pretty regular for awhile but I got over it finally. I imagine that was slowing me down on my weight loss. 2. no favorite tv show. I'd always rather read than watch tv and usually thats what I do. 3. If I could be anywhere else right this minute I'd probably pick one of my grandkids home. If we are talking a get-away spot I'd take Padre Island (north, not south). 4. Yes, WLS has met all my expectations! 5. I'm passed the halfway mark to my weight goal. started at (highest)251 and now 186. My goal is 138 but anything below 150 will be fantastic!

1. I crave popcorn!! 2. I love the show Myth Busters...I've always been somewhat geeky! 3. If I could be anywhere else right now it would be somewhere warm, sunny and dry (it's 30 degrees, gray and snowy in Pittsburgh, PA today) 4. WLS has far exceeded my expectations, it was the best decision I ever made!! 5. I am 50 pounds away from meeting my goal, I am down a total of 120 from May 2005 and 105 from surgery date September 2005.

1. What food do you crave on a regular basis? Mexican food and sugar. 2. What is your favorite TV show? Reality TV was created for me!! I watch Survivor, American Idol, America's Next top model, Wife Swap, SuperNanny. 3. If you could be ANYWHERE else right now, where would it be? On Vacation with my family. (Italy) 4. Has having WLS met all of your expectations? Yes, except for when I overeat sugar. I have crazy thoughts and feelings when I dump. 5. Where are you as far as your Weight loss goal?? I am at 130 which is below Dr's goal (150) and below personal goal (135).

Hi Suzette, It has been a beautiful day in So Florida as well. I've taken every advantage of being out of doors ~What food do you crave on a regular basis?

Again, I can't name just one....Lost, Invasion and 7th Heaven..... ~If you could be anywhere else right now, where would it be? Hands down..... A cruise ship in the Carribean....uh huh ~Has having WLS met all your expectations? Yes....and beyond. ~Where are you as far as your weight loss goal? I've weighed 120 (below goal) for 15 months....so, I guess, that is where my body wants to be... God is Good luvitsunnyv
