TGIF

So I would like to get to know you all better so I know that I have changed a lot of the past year since I had my surgery. Weekends were very boring with me. I would sit at home and play computer games all day. Since I have lost my weight I am enjoying every minute of my life.. I have plans all the time and have given up playing pc games completely. that was a biggy for me.

So my question today is.. What are you all doing for the weekend. I know many of you are much further out than me so weekends like I have now have been a part of your life.. But its a great indicator of who you are and things you enjoy.

Have a great weekend.

We bought a pair of polaris skis 5 years ago and because of my weight and being so sick I hated riding them. In total I have 30 hours on the thing and most of it I didnt do. This year will be different. I am looking forward to getting out there and riding all day.

Saturday we are hitting the lake for the first time this year to doing some sking..

Sunday is Mothers day and we are going to my parents house for a big family get together. The food menu is not that great so I will be bringing something I can eat. It's nice to see the family. I havent seen them since Christmas.

Tomorrow is a yard-work day - mowing, weeding, edging, sweeping, etc.  Still don't really enjoy working in the yard, but it's much easier with 160 less pounds!!  Following that, it's clothes shopping (whew hew!) for the afternoon with my girlfriends! Sunday is with my mother-in-law and family, celebrating Mother's Day and several birthdays.  Because of a large family, get-togethers have always been about food.  I struggle with this every time - especially since now I eat more normallly.  I have tried to work my magic to change the 'mind-set' of everyone so that our gatherings don't revolve around food, but I must remind myself that not everyone shares my love/hate relationship with food, so I try to handle the situation with as much control as possible and not beat myself up if I fall off the wagon a little bit! Happy Mother's Day to everyone!!
