Yaay me! Lol Rode my bike 2 miles AFTER pushing it down the hill and then UP the hill. Folks, this ain't just ANY hill. Straight up ! My driveway is a long straight up drive to the top of a hill! It scares everyone who has to drive it the first time. All I could think of the whole time was " da da da da daa da. Da da da da daaa da...". Think Dorothy. Lol

[former_vbg 198]

Ok, I'm in... a lot of life drama for me the past month and a half. I'm ready to get with it and finish this journey!

Thanks NannieG. I'm 5'3", so I'm a shortie... LOL I haven't seen my surgeon since a few days after surgery- he's in TX, I'm in MO. I've worked w/my PCP during the past year and he set the goal of 120# for me w/the reasoning that it would give me 5# of wiggle room. He has seen me struggle for years on the weight thing and so I am going for it. I haven't been 120# since probably junior high... 140's probably early high school. By the time I graduated h.s., I was probably knocking on 200#...

This was a great week in so many ways, first I lost 5 pounds and second I finally made it to twonderland! Tonight I'm going clothes shopping since none of my pants are staying up. Etiher that or buy a pair of suspenders. I'm so gonna kill this challenge. I have so much more energy now it's so hard to believe.
