mousecrazy 2 Posted October 4, 2005 Hi! I am a new quilter....I hardly even count as one, but I am working on a couple of projects...my mom was an artist at it, and my grandmother is still quilting every day (she's 92!). I was banded a week before you, and have lost 36 total, but I started by ticker at the weight I was on surgery consultation. You are doing great!!! Thanks for the introduction, Cindy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quilter Mom 0 Posted October 4, 2005 I love quilting although I haven't been able to do it for a while because I've been renovating my new home, along with recovering from surgery. My weight was 261.5 on the morning of surgery and now it's 226.5. I hope to get down to around 160. I don't ever expect to be skinny. Good luck with your weight loss.

DeLarla 22 Posted October 4, 2005 Hi Quilter Mom, I wish you would have introduced yourself sooner. I just sent a huge box of quilting scraps to a Katrina donation center with the suggestion for someone crafty to start a Katrina Love Quilt. I sure hope the stuff gets used, cause I would have loved to send it to a fellow bandster. Congrads on your skinny self! Nice to meet you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
