    Hi Vim! I haven't been around much either. My mom is doing okay. She started back to work in January, but is still recovering. The surgery went well, but it's still not fusing. She still has very limited use of her entire right arm, but it's slowly improving.
    I moved out of my parents house December 28 to live down here in San Diego by Julie to help take care of her as she is still very sick. I go home to visit every few weeks though. I'm going to college down here full time, and have scholarship application essays pending.
    Angel is doing great...though she misses me a lot. She's 70 pounds now, but still as cute and fluffy as ever. She loves to run, and she herds the little dogs around the house like sheep.
    Glad to hear you're doing well!

    And to also note, my reappearance here was just recent and had all to do with the Callery's instituting new rules and ridding the forum of its problem children.

    It's good to see you as well Vim. I've been doing okay for the most part. Had a rather harrowing near-death experience this past January with a gangrenous gallbladder that had perforated and spread infection through my body, but that has been resolved for the most part. I still have some lingering issues and I'm not quite sure (and neither are my doctors) where they're coming from. Mostly issues with my blood pressure going up and down rapidly, near fainting spells, and a weight loss of 15 pounds in the past month. Everything has been checked and rechecked and I show no obvious reasons for my symptoms. It's almost become debilitating at this point. I am scheduling an appointment with a chiropractor today to see if I don't have issues with my spine. The back of my neck has some noticeable pressure pain on it and I can make myself dizzy moving my head from side to side.

    Hey there! Sorry I sort of disappeared. They blocked this site from work and I kinda forgot about it for a while. I got laid off at Verizon last month and moved back to Ohio. :-( its COLD here! I am working for AT&T here, so all is good. I miss the warm and the water though! How have you been!?

I have reached a different understanding in how we do or fail to cope with the mental replacement of our previous junk eating. Thank you Mike Fisher (Fisher1000) and Jacki (Splendifor) for your comments in my earlier threads - you have paved a clearer path for me!

Learning to reapply our mental frustration from not "being able" to junk eat is something we all agree on. But wherein the struggle lies, I believe is akin to starting retirement. When you have worked your butt...

Exactly 4 months out today.
I have lost 42% of my wls journey so far.
I am SO very happy at the improved me, at being FREE, feeling younger, lighter and just grateful to be ALIVE...

You know that feeling you get at times, such as "falling in love", finding the "dream" house, that "great" job...? You just know it when you see it. But know what exactly? Well, you "know" that the glove fits, that everything...

Thinking in First Person…

I really feel guilty! I have been indulging in myself these last 9 months. The duration of a pregnancy. The outcome has been the birth of ME!

I, I, I, me, me, me!

It’s all about what I think, how I look, how I feel, what I am doing, what I will be doing, my involvement in any given situation. From having stood at the back of most photographs, here I am at the front, taking full centre view! I feel good, I feel strong, I...

Take a peach. Sun ripened, room temperature and just ripe, not overly ripe… Have you ever felt your lips reaching the velvety skin of a peach, them pursing as you sink your teeth into the flesh? Have you ever peeled off the velvety, dry, soft skin on top with your teeth, and felt your teeth meet the flesh of the fruit? Your tongue coming to the aid to catch the sweet aromatic juices as your teeth sink into the firm, soft flesh? You take a first bite, your mouth bursts with flavour, sweetness,...

A fun thread came on yesterday, with a table of the equivalent of your loss by a different measure

According to it, I have lost the equivalent of an elephant's heart, have still a 5000 BTU air conditioner to lose until I reach my goal of a 2 month old horse.

However, as I feel stronger and different about my weight loss surgery than I do compared with any other dieting I have ever done, I know that my RNY will work! I am DETERMINED for it to WORK! I SHALL SUCCEED!...
