Hi Christie, thanks for your "post". Yep, I know I need to exercise more, just so HOT !!! I also have a 2/12 yr. old & was afraid of her jumping on me, which she did....ooowwwweeeeeeee! Now she says "Mama hurt?" Anyway, I appreciate your words of encouragement. I weighed on MY scales just now & they "say" 23 pounds gone. Tuesday, 6/28 is my 4 week post op anniversary. Keep up your good work. Oh, I may not be eating enough(never thought those words would come from ME, mainly just drinking carb shakes, crystal light, sugar free jello & pudding. Go bsck to my Doc 7/7....hope he doesn't "scold" me, I'm a sensitive Fatty.
