    HEY! Thanks for checking in on me! We're loving the house. The lawn is growing. I think there is more grass than weeds now! We had a couple of boulder walls build, edging and stone around the whole perimeter... A few shrubs... and I'll do the rest as time goes by.

    DH has a motorized wheelchair now. He's put a few dings and dents into the walls and woodwork, but once he gets the "hang of it," I'll make the repairs. We need to look into a lift or something so that we can use the chair away from home. It's too heavy to manually lift.

    I should do the 5DPT... or just focus on the basics! So many distractions! I'm overall happy tho...

    Congrats on the pending grandmotherhood! It's the BEST!!! Can't get enough of our little ones!!!

    Hi Vim

    Oh a baby pug!! My sister will be beside herself!! Yes D day is looming, mum is so excited.... and dad he is taking it all in his stride lol! Yes unforntunately this site has become not as it is intended to be. I very rarely comment on posts now as you never know when someone will get anti ( i can't be doing with all that) I have my fountains of knowledge on here and I will dip in and out as and when I need advice. You take cae and enjoy that little puggie. R xx

    Hi Vim

    Hope you are well.?I am 10st I can not believe it! How I love Dr D!! Eating is great I tolerate virtually anything but in samller amounts! Mum has had a rotten year with her band, infection after infection!! And then an erosion so finally that had to be removed in April. Both her and Dad are having RNY at the end of June. We will be a whole family of bypassers!! At least eating out will be cheap!! xxx

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!...
