Topic: I got a surgery date!
July 27th and I am scared silly!   I am down from 293 to 277 but the doctors would like another 10 or 15 pounds off prior to surgery!  Would be easier if I didnt break my toe and hurt my knee...lol

Also has anyone ever used :
1.  the liquid calcium called:  Osteo Calm- Bone health support (calcium and magnesium)  brand Natural Vitality - Peter Gilham.

2.  Prolab advanced wehy protein - vanilla?  Wondering if it is lactose free?

Topic: RE: I rode a roller coaster today
Wow - congrats big time!!!  I've never been on a roller coaster and that is one of my wieght loss goals!  I'm still waiting for surgery - hopefully within the next year.

I can really relate though because when I was in Florida in October I couldn't go on the roller coaster because of my size.

Once I get to goal I think it will have to be a 'yearly' thrill - the roller coaster ride for real!!!

Here.  I'm still waiting for my date with destiny, but I go for preliminary screening in August, so I'm really happy - to be on my way to first base!!!

Thanks Yvonne for all your support.

Topic: RE: It looks like we've all left our computers and gone outside!!! What are your plans for weekend???
Hello my darling!

I've been buried under email, facebook participation (which is easier because I get notices) and I'm going to the ASMBS in Vegas next week so I'll be gone most of the week.  I'm trying to get each person that writes me to join here so they can have more support than just me.

I wish there was an easier way to combine all the positive peeps and I've toyed with the idea of a facebook page or either ask for help here.  I just know there's a need....

Glad you can take a nap outside girlfriend!  In Texas you'd die in about 5 minutes.  I think it's 100 degrees today!  It's all good in the pool though.
hugs, Y

LOVE this!! What a great perspective and comparison of your marriages!!  HAPPY Belated Anniversary, Anne! You have much to celebrate this year. My 25th anniversary is in November and I would LOVE to be closer to my "marriage weight" which was the lightest of my young adult days.

You are right about being perfect too...irritating and a little boring too!!
Awesome message to read this morning--thanks, Anne!

Happy HAPPY Anniversary.  What a wonderful story.  I love the last part about the diet and exercise.  I think there's a t shirt in there somewhere.  Also loved the perfect part.  

Isn't it incredible that you're only 20 pounds away from where you were 29 years ago???? That still blows me away.  The naysayers that said it couldn't be done and look at you!  WOOO HOOO! I hope you have a wonderful time on your so very happy anniversary!
