Sorry so long for a reply, working two full jobs, mainly because I'm sucker for punishment. Would you believe I've never done the Salt? Mostly because I was a "bit" overweight, but something I'd like to do next year probably. My kids have been and they did have a lot of fun. I'm kinda of a quick burner though, not sure how well I'd do out there.

Other than working like a dog, I'm doing pretty good. Still losing, slower than before since I can't exercise as much. One of my jobs will be going away in bit, just sticking around to get my severance which will be about 8 months of pay. I sweat a lot of blood for them, so I'm not giving that up.

Hi, How was your trip? I used to live in Modesto, Ca. Can't say I miss it. Too hot for me and too many people. The town I live in now has pop. of 250. Real quiet in the winter. LOL

Thanks! I see you're still progressing, slowly but surely. I still think you'll probably be safer than others might be in regards to the dangers of re-gaining the weight. The slower it comes off, the more your body will be used to it's new weight, in my opinion. Keep up the good work!

Well, I got my surgery date, it's September 19th, next month! Just a visit with the surgeon and the anesthesiologist and I will be good to go. As far as my weight goes, I have hit a plateu. Part of it is my fault, as I succome to the "If I don't eat it now, I may never get to eat it again!" thoughts. Fortunately, I haven't gone off the deep end enough to gain any weight, except a lb. or 2, which could be just normal fluctuation.

Thanks for asking!

And tomorrow is freakin' weightlifting...and Saturday is PT! What was I thinking? My arm is going to be sore and the trainer is going to think I'm a wuss. I'm screwed!

I'm a bit of hypochondriac...and I readily admit it. I had to get a tetanus shot tonight and when the nurse told me, I broke a sweat instantaneously. I am NOT a friend of the doctor's office...too much stuff runs through my head! (I'm sure they hate to see me coming as well!)

Muchas Gracias Deberella! I seriously thought I had some chest disease. The doc just laughs at me now and requests that I respectfully refrain from diagnosing myself on the internet!

Deb, where about are you in the Phoenix area? I saw a job for hubs in Scottsdale. I have family in Phx too. Also, just wondering, how long did it take start to finish to get your surgery and who was your doc? Just in case we go for it. I probably won't have my surgery now until late October or early Nov. We might be out of here by then. Just keeping my options open.

Its a thread called belly pics. Just posted this evening.

I posted some belly pics UGH for the world to see.
