4 months after lap band surgery, and life is GOOD. Actually, life is better than good! But I've been so bad! I have every excuse in the book, (I'll just say that up front!) But I haven't been to the gym in almost three weeks! STILL I have managed to continue losing weight, and eating great, and I'm thinking that when "fill day" comes next week I probably won't be needing one. But I do have a week to go, so maybe I shouldn't be so sure.

At any rate.. I have a lot of wonderful news to share this week.. I'll try not to let this get too long.

First off the list.. my son's wedding was FABULOUS! Lots of work, lots of company, lots of craziness, but worth every second! I had the privilege of photographing the event, and I'm so grateful for that! It was definitely a different perspective... I could have opted to sit it out and watch from a normal 'mother of the groom' perspective, but I had a lot of fun where I'm most comfortable: behind the lens!

Second off the list: I completed "Lab Rat Days" in Denver yesterday with excellent reports! I got away from there with my "medication free" status in tact, but possibly not for long. I did have a Defibrillator interrogation today and I might be looking at some kind of anti-arrhythmia medication later this month, but nothing is certain.. I will update on that later.

I'm continuing to fill up bags with "too big" items, and that's still as fun as it was from the first pair of pants that went in! I'll admit that's not very motivating as far as getting me to the gym. I think it would be easier if I stopped losing weight while I was thinking up excuses not to go!! I will go back tomorrow.. I'm sure of it. (Laughing outloud!) I really am ready to return. Gosh it's easy to stay away though, and I just don't know if I will ever be one of those people who gets addicted to exercise.. I won't hold my breath waiting for it, that's a promise! I did promise myself that once the wedding was done, and all of my company left I'd get back into my routine, and I can't be breaking that promise now can I?

Last big news... "HOUSTON, WE HAVE A COLLARBONE!"

Yep.. it's there.. just as I suspected! (Laughing out loud again!) I've been waiting for it to show.. I missed it!

I'm weird.. I know it! Okay, perhaps I didn't miss it. Honestly, I didn't even realize it was missing until someone else discovered theirs after losing a lot of weight! But once I realized it was hiding, I was pretty excited to see mine again! And today, I can see it! Sweet huh?!

Closing in on 60 pounds gone~ and Onederland is just around the corner!

Thanks for stopping by!
