Hi to old friends and nice to meet you to new ones!

Hi Everyone,

Just popping in after several years' absence. I just got away from posting / reading on this site and I am glad to be back. I need to be here as I have regained some of the weight I lost. I am 8 years out from Gastric Bypass surgery. I am still 100 lbs. less than I was, but my weight has crept back to higher than I would like it to be. If any of you remember me from before, please say, "Hi". "Nice to meet you" to all the newer members.

Karen aka. Kakesie

Nice to see you back!

Thank you!

Kakesie! Great to see you back!

Thank you!

Most of the traffic on OH these days is on the daily menu thread. I hope to see you checking in there!

Hi Karen, Great to see you! I hope you will join us back on the menu thread. Lots of familiar old faces there :)

How are all the pets and your daughter?

Thank you! Pets and Saralisa are doing fine! Thanks for asking! (Great memory!)

Welcome back! Regain is real, I am struggling myself. Hopefully being back on the menu thread will help! I know it helps keep my head in the game. How is your daughter? I feel like she had graduated college a few years ago! Hope you are both well!

Thanks! Saralisa got her own apartment about 3 years ago, has a full-time job and a full-time boyfriend and is taking two online classes. She is really busy and it seems like I rarely see her. But she is doing great, thanks for asking.
