Glad you're having a great time.  We want pictures of you in your Speedo.  LOL

Some people might not support my WLS decision. 
Those people remind me of slinkys. Not good for much but it would would bring a smile to my face if someone pushed them down the stairs.

As an airline employee, there was probably not a better NSV than to have that super extra segment of seatbelt waving proudly for all to see the first time.  A wow moment for certain!

HAVE A TON OF FUN!

I want to go back to the Big Island one of these days. My plan is to do "Kona" which is the Ironman World Championships. I might do the Hawaii 70.3 some day instead. Because I probably won't be able to get into Kona until I'm in my 60s and I don't want to wait that long.

 Hey Jim,

I'm delighted to hear that you're doing so well.  You deserve this big vacation for all the hard work you've put in the last few years.  Have a great time and take lots of pics!

how wonderful, sounds like a great trip!! 

once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.

PM me if you are interested in either of these.
