Hello, 160s!

yayyyyyyy,
that is freakin awesome to be in the 160's
go youuuu !!!! and of course youll get there my friend keep it up !!!!

 Thanks, Toni!

You're looking great, btw!

I'm jealous.  Good for you and I know it will happen for me too.  And boy would I love to gain even an inch.  Actually being 5' again would even feel pretty good.

Totally!  You're really close, too!  And who knows?  Try measuring yourself when you get to the 160s; you might surprise yourself...

OMG OMG OMG!!!   I am so flippin excited for you! 

Could ya please just drag me in there with ya?  Please please please.  I am so hot for getting to the 160's that I almost can't stand it.  I've been in the 170's for almost two months now.

Get up on a table and dance and sing and shout out for everyone what you've accomplished!

Thanks, Lee!  I know you're right next to me - it's soooooo close!

Hope your back is getting better.  

 Congratulations Rosa! It seems like just yesterday that you were recovering at your folks' house and just getting started on this journey.  You have done beautifully and have a lot to be proud of. Gosh, I'd offer you some of Natalie's clothes that she never wears, but I think they would be too big for you! (That must make you have a Cheshire cat grin :)   I cannot wait to see you next month!  

I mean, totally, Kathy!  I was just thinking about that - it seems like I was just in DC, posting to the RNY board wondering when I could laugh again without hurting myself.  And you told me that wouldn't be an issue for long. I couldn't even imagine what you were talking about, and now I laugh at how little perspective I had back then.  :)

Does Natalie wear an 8?  Because if so, that definitely wouldn't be too big...

Chesire grinning away,
R

Nope.... size 10, you skinny mini!  Wow... you inspire me..(put me to shame a little bit, too, but I am mostly inspired!  But that's my issue with myself.  You keep shinin' girl! That makes me think back - You are shining, Rosa. Since your metamorphosis, it's as though you have walked from the shady-grey city blocks out into the clearing of the square.  You stepped out into the sunshine with a lighter step and a lighter heart. And now you are that sunshine!  Awww.  Good for you sweetie.  

On second thought, you'd better hold on to those 10s - you're going to need them yourself!
