Just Too Freaking Much
If you're a nut, so am I. I love those moving sidewalks in airports! I feel like Superwoman when I'm on them and mow down anybody who gets in my way. Jean

Congratulations on getting to Onderland!
As for the restlessness, I totally understand what you are talking about and I have it too, I generally channel my energy into something, but sitting and watching television is just not something I can do too often, whereas pre-WLS I had no problem sitting watching a program, though there are times I can sit in front of the computer and get lost in cyberspace reading on here or researching various other things. If you read my posts around the weekend, or when I am on vacation, I am always on the go and I remember my dear cousin was the same way, it must have something to do with the energy levels we have post-surgery, though everyone is different and experiences things differently. But most of the time when it is time for me to go to sleep, I can and other than potty breaks (mine or Dillinger's) in the middle of the night, I generally stay asleep, so that I'm thankful for, as my cousin had problems sleeping post-surgery, and walking is not a bad addiction, but at 3 a.m.? Girlfriend, get a big dog to take with you. . .
Hugs and congratulations again on your successes! Laureen
My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

I dog sat my son's puppy and when it was here and I needed to walk off we went and most of the time, I had to carry him home. I wish I had time for a dog or a cat or a fish, but I am never home, never. I miss home life. LOL. HOpefully soon I will have this dissertation finished and I can just work and not work and go to school.
Oh Jeannie, its always such a treat to see a post from you on here!! And how wonderful on your almost reaching goal!! Good for you!
As to the restlessness,,I have it too. Some nights I get up out of bed and just go do something,,I cant relax and sleep! I have walked the dog at midnight or 1 AM too, but only here in our little subdivision. And my dog is an overweight chihuahua that usually needs carried home.
How about a new picture?? We are all so anxious to see the skinny you!
And how is that grandson? Do you ever see him?
We miss you on here!! Come join us more often!
Hugs
