Greetings all
Another lovely day here in lala land. DH took both the dogs for walks even though he just had veins sealed in one leg. It's good to see him moving around again. The heart episode scared him I think. He is very much a creature of habit so once he starts doing something he does it day in and day out. Walks. Or cheese puffs.
Spent some time at the studio today glazing. Water will be out tomorrow for 3 days due to sewer line replacement. I had some large bottles of drinking water in the garage from some long ago emergency issue which were unopened so I took them to studio in case someone needs drinking water. We will have some buckets of water available plus hose on adjoining property. Might be a good time to stay away but I have lots to do!
I planned a store trip today but bugged out. We have enough to eat.
Hormones! Yep they can get to you. Being done with all that younger woman stuff was such a blessing to me. I did not take hormone replacement as I didn't get hot flashes or anything. No regrets there though my bones are not in the best shape. And boobs! Regain left me with whoppers. They get in the way and no bras work. One of the worst parts of regain. Fudge.
Paula tell us where we can see your art. Do you have a web site? Good luck on the show. I used to do those. Lots of work. Also fun to talk to all the people that come by.
Liz congrats on being in normal range. Who knew normal was so exciting.
Lordy this heat wave is so awful I feel guilty for not suffering. But not much....

So I did the tummy tuck (which still looks fine) but not the other stuff in 2017. When my boobs were sorely deflated I used padded bras if I needed to fill something out a bit more - and I had these little pads that went in the bottom of my older bras so I could still wear them LOL.

Best of luck at the show - I hope you don't melt!

Yay for being at the top of your range! All these goals and milestones being met!
I'm now 11 lbs. down and still have 2 days before my first month is over. Will I make it to 12? Clothes are fitting better!
Grilled salmon and veggies were good last night. Tonight is sushi date night! That will be 3 nights of seafood in a row, never a problem for me!
Need to start packing up the SUV for my art show on Sunday. So much work setting up and taking down! The weather is going to be hot, hot, hot! Planning on bringing a portable fan!
Have a great weekend everyone!
Boobs! Mine were so very deflated after I lost weight with the VSG that I got implants. I asked for a C (which is what I was before losing weight) but got a DD (too big, and now really too big!). I'll be anxious to see what the weight gain did to them and my arms (which I also got fixed ) when I get to goal weight. I never did get the tummy tuck I was planning on getting and now probably never will!
So weird - I hate when they are bigger but when I got under 120 I felt like they disappeared (and I wasn't used to that). I also hate having to buy new bras.

We are about 2 hours away from Waukesha. We live in Appleton. Waukesha is where DH grew up!
Congratulations to the both of you on your delightful weight loss. And Liz, smaller boobs. I really want smaller boobs! I think that's another side effect of the Tamoxifen, they haven't reduced as much as they normally do with a 40 pound loss.
I start the long drive to get my hair cut and colored in a little while, so I'd better get some breakfast on board.
Feel better! Womanhood stinks sometimes...
