I'm back! lol Just past my 1st bandiversary!



Recommended Posts

I have been away from the boards for a while, so I wanted to make my apologies for disappearing, lol!!! Life gets WAY to hectic for me I think and I forget to take time for myself. I homeschool all three of my kids, got a hubby in the Navy that suffers from PTSD, my two boys have ADD/ADHD, 2 of my kids are adopted and suffer from emotional issues thanks to their birth mom's neglect. On top of it all, a couple of months ago we had a house fire, lost most of my kitchen and living room stuff, including the computers! And one of my dogs almost didnt survive the fire, UGH!!!!

On a lighter note, I am now past my first bandiversary and am lovin my Buster!!! I didnt make my goal of losing 100 lbs, however, I lost 95 lbs...And thats good enough for me!! I feel so much better with most of the excess weight gone! And I guess I even look better! If anyone is interested I did post some new pics of my progress in my album..

Anyways, thanks for understanding my disappearing act and for welcoming me back!!! Its great to be back in contact with those who understand bandster life!

A year out of surgery, I have this one small fact to admit. I should have lost more, but I really didnt excercise the way I should have been. And I probably cheated my diet one two many times. Nonetheless, I am super happy and if I dont lose another pound, thats ok too!

Good luck!

Wow, congrats!!

You've lost 95lbs in a year with all that you've had to deal with???!!!

Girl, you give me hope. I just may be able to do this with a couple of cheat days and all.

I hope your load lightens soon but I think you have this on lock.

You go!!

Congratulations on maintaining your sanity with all that going on! You amaze me because you were able to continue to lose dealing with the stress you must have been and are probably still under.

I too have been away from the boards for the summer but I am sure we will be welcomed back, this is a truly wonderful group.

Keep going you will make your goal before you know it.
