Going in for a fill today!

Looking forward to today - I'm getting my 6th fill - 1/2 cc, which works for me. This has been a very slow month for me losing weight, the scale has not moved much - I know I lost at least 4 pounds - maybe more than that, I'll find out when I get to the doctor today.   But on the upside, I'm very grateful and happy for all the weight I have lost, and I view the scale as my friend, not my enemy.   I'm still cooking my delicious meals - I so love my cooking, lol. I've been a cook for a long time, and I'm so happy I'm still able to do it - and to share my passion of cooking with all my friends and family and all my blogger friends.   So untill I come back, that's all for now.   :eek:
