1st official weigh-in

That is so awesome on the weight. Having those drains come out really helps doesn't it? 42 pounds....man that is awesome! I really can't understand people these days. Especially during the holiday season. A friend drove by my house one night, the girls has left the garage door up (bad summertime habit) and they were actually IN THE HOUSE when he saw somebody in our garage pilfering through out stuff!! He pulled in and asked him what he was doing and the guy bolted. Thank God for Evan, THANK GOD he didn't go in the house and find my two teenage daughers. Very scary. I am just glad no one was home when they broke into your garage. Bikes can be replaced, people can't! I just figure if someone wants it worse than me, by all means have. And good luck with our stuff in the garage, it's all weight training equipment! If he can carry those 140# dumbbells out the door and run more power to him! Val

Thanks Valerie! and OMG YES with the drains out I feel like a new woman. I just wish I knew what kind of exercise I Could do now to start on this already flabbiness. (i had an 8" open incision on top of my LAP surgery so I Have to be careful of hernia's and such) My sciatic nerve is shot from being in the hospital for so long so walking is very limited also at this time. AND no where in the fine print did it say I would look what little cushion I had on my sitter, first... lol OOO my aching behind. I guess I can pump some cans of peas for my arms to start. Do some chair dancing too...lol Dr told me just do what I can as far as walking. To all the theifs that think it's cool to steal from children ---- you'll get yours in the end. Nuff said about that. At least they just took the 2 bikes, 1 was to become mine when it got warmer. Didn't take my lawnmower, thank goodness! I think that would have been an obvious to anyone seeing them walking down the street with that in December..lol Happy Holidays!

Congrats on the 42 pounds! I had my surgery on 11/30 and am down 20 pounds! I know how you feel about the sciatica. When I get up and walk now, I have some numbness in the front of my thighs but I am sure this will subside once the weight starts coming off more. Just think, this time next year. WOW

See it will be a Happy Holiday. I wish you lived closer. I got a bike you can have but I have no way to get it to you before Christmas. It is a fairly nice men's bike
