Hi all! Just checking in after a long hiatus (though I continue to post daily in the VSG Maintenance group). I have missed you all! I noticed that JB has been promoted to Queen, LOL. I have unfortunately regained about 20 pounds so it is time to do something about that! The last time I had regain was while DH was rapidly declining from Alzheimer's. This time is because I have been in love and going out to eat way too much. Portion control is never a problem due to WLS, but of course snacking and higher calories still are an issue at times.

Quick update: I was on Cape Cod from May to October of this year, living with Mike who I have now been dating for almost 1.5 years. We were in Florida from mid-October to mid-December. We just decided to get married (but haven't told anyone yet, so keep it quiet)! We will probably tell family and friends next week just before we leave for a month in Hawaii, followed by a month in Arizona, and then a month in the Florida Keys. Yes, we have been and will be busy. I think after the next 3 months of my dream vacation we will settle down to less travel. I am selling my Florida place to live at Mike's when we return from the Keys and at some point will decide what to do with my Cape Cod home where I live with him up here (he also has a home on Cape Cod but has had family staying there). Crazy life, but I am happy.

QOTD: Nope, no magic wands, though I did love Harry Potter books!

No menu as I need to start cutting down and planning better but we are going out to lunch, then there will be leftovers of some sort at home.

I am so happy for you and Mike. You have had such a wonderful and romantic year and a half. I think it is a form of magic that you two found each other. Congratulations to both of you.

Real life begins where your comfort zone ends

Liz!! I am so glad you're back! You pop into my mind a lot - now stay here this time! You have been missed!

I KNEW you guys would end up getting married! I check out your FB profile from time to time (since your posts don't always show up on my newsfeed) just to see if it's happened yet or not. I am SO happy for you!!
