Its Friday LWs!!!!   Here are this weeks questions.  Hope to see everyone post......  pre-ops, post-ops, lurkers, all is welcome. 

1.)  How many US states have you visited?

2.) Any struggles/victories this week?

3.)  You just won a million dollars!  What would you do with the money?

4.) Any plans for Halloween?


My answers:

1.) How many US states have you visited?  Lets see.... PA, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Texas, Illinois, Kentucky & Colorado.   Cant wait to add Hawaii to this list.

2.) Any struggles/victories this week?  I had 2 lazy days where exercise was at the bottom of my to-do list.  I also had a day or 2 where I didnt meet my fluids quota.  Victories.....  wish I could say the scale moved, but it hasnt.  I did get into a pair of size 10 jeans that were kinda snug before.


3.) You just won a million dollars!  What would you do with the money?  Oh boy!  Fufill my wish from #1 and go to Hawaii for a longgggg vacation.  Pay off college loans and a few other misc bills.  Help out some family members.  Donate some to the American Cancer Society.


4.) Any plans for Halloween?  Passing out treats to the Trick or treaters on Sunday.  I LOVE doing this!  We live in a small community. We get around 30-40 kids, but they are all local kids that either live in the community or their parents grew up in this community. 


Im off to the gym, then a few other errands.  Will check on everyones answers when I get back.  Cindy

I love that you are doing these fun Friday posts again! I go back and read them all and it helps us get to know each other better.

1. I live in Illinois and have been to Michigan, Florida, and South Carolina (and passed through those on the way)

2. Just this morning I hit my ultimate goal weight of 100.0 pounds! Now I just have to learn how to maintain that, especially through what I lovingly call "fat season" which begins on Sunday and ends December 26th.

3. Pay off all our debt (house, etc) and put the rest in the bank!

4. We are taking the kids Trick-or-Treating. I'm excited for DS to be able to walk up to doors this year!

1.)  How many US states have you visited?
47, I'm missing Nebraska, Rhode Island and Vermont. 

2.) Any struggles/victories this week?
WLS-wise I've been on track.  I'm making my  way slow and steady down the scale.  Work has been insane.  Our account lead got demoted and one of her subordinates got promoted to be her boss.  As the HR person this has been a nightmare -- drama, hurt feelings, manager rearranging.  Just crazy!

3.)  You just won a million dollars!  What would you do with the money?
DH and I had this discussion this week.  He bought a lottery ticket and we were doing the "what if?"  I'd save it and use it to live on in my early retirement.  Ok, there will be a piece that would be used for plastics further down my journey.  Not very exciting for in the short term, but the thought of quitting work and doing the things I want is pretty exciting for me. 

4.) Any plans for Halloween?
We're doing a Halloween fun run.  Keeping things pretty quiet.

1.)  How many US states have you visited?  I have visited 26.  My husband and I are working on visiting all 50- with 13 checked off the list. We are going to Hawaii in February and hopefully Alaska in September.  That will be the big ones so it will be smoothe sailing.

2.) Any struggles/victories this week?  I wrote a post about still struggling at 6 weeks out.  I am hoping by Monday to be writing a post that will list some victories.

3.)  You just won a million dollars!  What would you do with the money? Give my two weeks notice and travel my heart out.  Then it would be back to the grind when the money was gone.

4.) Any plans for Halloween? Passing out Candy.  Another couple is coming over and we are dressign up.  I want to be Miss Piggy.  My husband is going to be Kermmy and our dog Cookie if I can get their costumes worked out.  I bought felt and googly eyes but am working all weekend so we shall see.
