Yup...new guy...funny thing...we went to the same high school but didn't know each other. Things happen for a reason, right? :bored:

I smile all the time now:smile: I just got a text message that says, "Good morning beautiful". I am certainly wearing the perma-smile these days.

Hey there friends...just popping in to say "hi" and see how everyone is doing. I'm doing pretty good...I have met someone that I really enjoy talking to...no...I don't have a boyfriend...it's just someone that I have a lot in common with. He's awesome. Plus...guess what...I actually wore my bikini outside of my house. :bored: I took my boys over to my friends house over the weekend to go swimming...I was brave enough to wear my bikini...life is getting pretty good...had some drama the past couple of weeks but I'm working through that. As of this minute right now in time...I couldn't be happier. I hope everyone is doing well...thanks for being a great support for me through all of this. You have no idea just how much it has meant.

Well hello everyone! I hope that you all are doing well. I'm gearing up for the holiday weekend...not too sure how it's going to go because I'm not going to have the boys this weekend. This will be the first time that I won't be with them to see fireworks...they are going camping and to a pool party with their dad...they're looking forward to it. I plan to hang out with my friend who is also going through a divorce. She's having a difficult time right now, second guessing herself. Her divorce was suppose to be final next Monday but she has postponed it for 30 days. I have known this girl since the 3rd grade...she's a wonderful person and deserves only the best so I hope whatever decision she makes, she will be happy. I went back to the PS yesterday and got my back drained again. Thank goodness it doesn't hurt because I can only imagine...I have seen the needle and I see all the big holes in my back where he sticks me. I go back next Friday so he can check me out again. Well...I hope you all are doing well and I hope everyone has a great holiday.

Hi there. I guess you could put me in the "success" category. I'm am a 35 year old female who began my lap band journey on April 30, 2007. In September 2006 I had reached the point where I couldn't take it anymore. I went to my doctor and told him that I was interested in lapband. I had to follow the six-month "diet" before going to a surgeon. I did that and didn't lose any weight. So...off to a surgeon I went. My surgery was planned for April 30 and I had to do a two week liquid diet (Optifast). So...on April 16, 2007 I had a "Farewell to Fat" party at my house. I was done with it and ready to begin my "new life". On April 17 (the day that I started the liquid) I weighed 275 pounds. I am married (struggling with issues currently) and I have two lovely little boys. I work for the federal government in Washington DC. I have been with this agency for over 17 years. To date, I have lost 128 pounds. I have a new life...I feel great, have tons of energy and feel like a completely different person. I know how hard this is to do by yourself so I am available to assist anyone in any way that I can. I know that if I can do it...anyone can... Feel free to contact me and I'll assist you as best I can.

Hello to my peeps... This is the best Monday that I can remember in a very, very long time. Just got out of a meeting at work and do you all remember the bitch in the office that I was talking about...she got another position and is leaving the office...I can't stop smiling...my work life just got really, really good...plus, there's a slight chance that I could get her job which is a promotion. Keep your fingers crossed for me...the application was due last week and I got it in just in time. Woo Hoo....there is a God. BTW...I hope everyone is doing well...:biggrin:

I need the some serious good vibes sent my way...in just 21 days I'm headed under the knife for my lower body lift and breast lift with augmentation. I'm really starting to freak out. I recently separated from my husband and I'm really scared about the recovery. I won't have someone with me 24/7. I hate pain and I know that I will be in some serious, serious pain. YIKES. Send me some good, non painful vibes!!! Thanks everyone.
