Bought an outfit today
I can't wait to post a new picture of me and the family on formal night. I have one on my profile of me and DH from our Thanksgiving 2007 cruise which was 2 months before surgery.
I did show DH the outfit when he got home from work and was happy for me.
Now, I have to find a swim suit and its snowing here. I hope they start putting them in the stores soon. I don't know what size I wear so I can't order one. If any of you really skinny gals out there have a size 10 or 12 you want to get rid of send me a PM

Congratulations Mary! You have done a fantastic job and are now reaping the benefits of doing that. Just imagine~did you ever dare to dream that you would be where you are at? I know that I can't. I even told the wls doctor that if I never lost another pound (which better NOT happen!) I would have never been where I am now and I would be happy. Happy yes but not satisfied!
It won't be long and your daughter will be asking to wear your clothes! What a switch if you ask me!
Sending you love and hugs for the great WOW moment that you had! And hubby is going to be a proud man having such a beautiful wife on his arm during the cruise.

Did you EVER think????? Big difference from the pic I FINALLY sent you from the Pittsburgh conference, huh?? I'll bet you look wonderful. I'd love to see you in person again. Maybe at Laureen's GTG? Not sure if I'll be able to make it, though. I just spent a bundle on my floors, and I'm having to watch my pennies. Hopefully I'll recoup by the time the plans are in place, and I can see what my budget (such as it is...) will allow. It involves a plane trip instead of a drive, and that make a difference. If I was driving I could pick up Annette on the way. But who wants to drive (or park) a car in NYC? Not this country girl!
I haven't seen Lora on the board lately. Wondering how she's doing. Let her know we're thinking about her.

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
