July 2006 Band Crew

[ready2bthin 2]

Hey, just checking in here. Had a beautiful day up here in northern Michigan. I went for a 40 minute walk this afternoon. Thought I could use some exercise while I'm away from home. Had pizza tonight and could only eat a slice and started a second and well, I knew that was it.

I am a licensed physical therapist assistant and do homehealth care, and work part time in a rehab hospital and will start some work in a nursing home when I get back.

I have 3 kids, daughter 16, son 15, son 13 and an exchange student daughter who is 16...So I HAVE 4 TEENAGERS living with me.....HELP!!! (Just kidding...they're great, really!!)

Mary - I couldn't imagine having that many teenagers in the house!! I do just fine with one - he had five friends over one night and I said never again! I just don't have the tolerance for that many at one time. You're a saint!

I am a homemaker and I have 1 daughter (25) and 1 son-in-law and a grandkitty. My daughter came up frow Waco yesterday and we got our hair done. It was fun. I will try to post the pictures that we took. I am still suffering with a sore throat but I don't have fever. I have slept alot today and haven't eaten much today. I hope it gets better soon.

My husband and I own an auto body shop, and have many rental properties. I manage the office for both. Its a lot to keep up with and I had a baby 6 1/2 months ago and am just getting back to work at work. I was working from home up until recently following the birth of our second child.

We have two children, both girls. Our baby Luciana is 6 1/2 months and our oldest Julia will be six years next Monday. My poor husband is ran ragged by all his girls lol. We also have two big german shepherd dogs, both males named Gunther and Reese, they are 1yr. and 2yrs. old. And last but not least is the fattest black cat you've ever seen, named Grizz, he's a pest but we've had him for 8-9 yrs. now and he's just like a person in our family.

Hey Susan,

You may think your weight loss is slow but that's awesome going from 24's to 20's. I know how hard that can be because I was in 24's too. Doesn't it feel good to buy smaller clothes. Be patient, and when you get your fill good and tight it will come off faster. It took me getting to 3.0cc's in a 4cc's band and now I'm very tight. Just wanted to say hi and keep in touch.

[ericsmom 2]

You're doing great, Susan! At least you're out there exercising!!

I go to my fill doctor next Friday the 17th...I'm 7cc's in a 10cc band. I don't feel the restriction I did a week or so ago...I don't know if we'll add another cc or just leave it alone for another month...we'll see.

I'm off to work - just wanted to say hello and have a great day!

Right now the 18 year old is at college, but comes home almost every other weekend to visit his girlfriend. My 21 year old joined the Navy and is living at home while waiting to be deployed. And my 15 year old is 15 and a boy, for what that is worth.

Still swimming, ladies, join me, the second week was tough but its getting better
