Hi Everyone. 
I haven't been posting regularly but have been lurking almost every day.  I finally took my CPAP machine and packed it away in it's case and put it in my closet.  Tomorrow it will be 4 months since my Lap RNY.  I had been using this machine for  6 years but have not used it for over a week now and seem to get along just fine and in fact I'm sleeping better.  Probably because I don't have to adjust the face mask throughout the night.  I am down 71 pounds and hit  "Onederland" a couple days ago and was so excited.  It's so much fun being  "A REAL LOSER".
Our weather is better, lots of melting going on but dangers of flooding basements due to enormous amounts of snow.  People are being urged to put sump pumps in their basements.  I will be so tickled to be able to get out and walk outdoors instead of doing home exercises.  I keep procrastinating about getting to the gym and pretty soon I'll run out of excuses. 
Nothing too exciting happening in my life.  Lenten services tonight at church, Hubby's 70th Birthday tomorrow so I will bake his favorite cake....Lemon Poppyseed Bundt.  I have Beta Sigma Phi Sorority tomorrow night and have to be there as I am Secy/Treas and there will be election of new officers  so Hubby and I will go out Saturday night with our DS,DIL and Grandaughter to a local Steak House to celebrate.
I hope everyone is safe, happy and loved,

Sandy

 Ahhhh,  Thanks for the reminder.  I  need to have my CPAP machine read and give it back to whomever.  I have not needed mine now for several months.  It is such a nice feeling to be able to roll over in bed and not have that "thing" twisted on me.... lol    Keep up the good work...  Millie

sandy...i am so envious of you !!! i had my setting lowered a few years ago-and i gave it up once-but put myself back on it!

keep up the positives!!!

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

Thank you everyone for your well wishes and always positive responses.  I hope I can be off the CPAP but really should have the sleep studies done again to be sure.  I did this on my own but intend to talk to my PCP and see what he has to say.
I have literally nothing to wear....but some baggy clothes and I'm not complaining either, just stating facts.  I checked out a few good wills stores  for some smaller sizes but to no avail.  I don't mind wearing baggy stuff around the house but don't want to look like a "clown" when I do go out to socialize.  I'm sure alot of you have been down this road and know what I mean.  I feel like such a "big loser".  Golly, I love saying that!!

Love ya all

Sandy
