Good Morning Familia!

Hola Family!!

It's been a BUSY 10 months!!  I am out of school and don't officially graduate until 2011.  I am in the process of applying for employment.    A few local people have been attending our WLS group here in Round Rock.  That makes me really happy.  I've learned how to sew (not that I couldn't have done that when I was heavier LOL) but I am really enjoying it.  Still rough around the edges but I'm having fun! 

As for my weight loss, I am doing well. Haven't gained but am losing slowly but healthy.  I have some trial and errors as far as eating because of a fill I had.  Hopefully now I can post more often.  I hope to read and catch up on everything from the cruise.

Lots of love and blessings to you all!!!

Blessings,

Nina

 NIna.....I was telling someone yesterday on OH about your support group.    Not sure if she attends it or not but I did spread the word about it.     I think it was here on the TMB but could have been one of the other MB's I am on.    SO glad to see that you are doing well and that things are alright for you.   I HAVE MISSED YOU !!!  Prayers going out that you will find a job quickly and that your graduation comes quickly.   Love and miss you and please don't be a stranger,

Stranger.. no way!!! I've missed reading the board!!! My mom asks me all the time.. "have you heard from your friends?"   Our group is slowly but surely taking off.   Good people with good ideas and questions!!!  I am not sure about attending the conference but I am really hoping too!!

Listen, I so thought about you when I made David's Bday pie (pumpkin), your pumpkin fluff.. that is this weekend's dessert!!   Lots of hugs and blessings to you.

Oh yeah, my best friend/sister, had her surgery with Dr. Kim and she is doing good.  I am hoping she will get involved with a support group so she can succeed!!  My other friend will have the sleeve in March of 2011. 

Well my friend, I am off to finish my coffee and do housework!

Love you!!

Nina

 Awesome news about your friends Nina.   Tell the one that Dr. Kim did her surgery to come to his SG if she can it is the first wednesday in the month at 6:30 in his office.    We also have a SG breakfast the last saturday in each month and I have my OH Support Group the  first sunday ( except Nov. will be second due to OH Conference ).    She is welcome and encouraged to attend any or all of the meetings.   If you need more information let me know.   Love and miss you.   Hope you get to come to the Conference.

I have been busy myself and not been on the TMB because all my other activities. My work has been more demanding, children's soccer practice and games, older daughter gymnastics, and my college courses. It is nice the the support group is growing in size.  I still have my own issues with being able to eat sometimes. Even have a doctor concerned a little about my weight but I reminded him what my goal is and that I am monitoring things carefully as I am almost to my goal. Since my schedule is a mess at times I decided to drop doing Tae Kwon Do and instead joining the local Y and start working out. My wife is concerned about me controling my weight  especially once I start working out at the gym and it is a concern of mine as well. I feel though I need a good outlet for stress and exercise to me seems like the best method and it will good for me to maintain my new healthly lifestyle. I considering to seriously look into find a plastic surgeon so that I can start working on financing the surgery. Another thing I am working on is applying for  some different positions within my company that may lead me to the Houston area and trying to put my degrees to work for me.

Nina,
You have been doing a great job with the support group.
