Hi Karen. Thanks. Maybe your son can help you with the pics, My daughter did it for me. I see some have a progressive album with pictures
and weight loss. Don't want to bug DD too much.
Do you teach? I can't remember. I start the end of Aug. I am teaching 2 courses this semester for the community college. Got my print order back and all sorted. My roster can still change quite a bit due to add/drops. It is a lot different than teaching in public school with a classroom. I like it very much. The house was to be set and locked yesterday. Due to all the rain it is now next Wed (next week.) We really needed rain..but if it only
held off for 3 or 4 days we would be up. So, we wait a little more. Keep in touch. Janet

HI Karen, Finally got some pics up.. they are in my album (if you can find it.) are Otherwise look on Todays Posts for the thread by me "Need some help" THey are part of the thread. HOpe you are ok.Janet

Hey Karen, How are you doing? I am ok..hanging at about 95 lbs. The next 5 will be a test of strength; then I have dreams of 50 more. hmmm.
Haven't seen you on.. so I am checking in.
I am in Fl..my mom died 3 years ago.Still can't believe it, I think her house in FL is selling the end of the month. So I am shipping some furniture home..saying good bye to the house, etc.
Are you cruising this summer? Keep in touch, k? Janet

Hi Karen,
How are you doing? We have been having some nice weather here but it looks like it wants to rain. We are building a house, so rain is a delay for us. (Either rain or an inspector.) I am down about 90 lbs now. I think 91 maybe. I guess the rest to 100 will be the longest wait... I go to a gym now and finally got a trainer. I see him once a week.
I kind of thought I might be losing hair have you lost any? Hard to tell. My WLS friends in support group say clumps come out. I am noticing sagging skin... every where... but plan to wear skirts or capris if I go out, and 3/4 sleeves... trying not to buy much.
Do you work in the summer? Let me know how you are feeling ok? It looks like your weight loss is going great.
Regards,
Janet

I am doing well..have been busy with life, you know how it is.. We leave for Fla. Next week so hopefully you left us some nice weather there! Got the okay to eat anything from my Nut and salad never tasted so good!! Lol.. So how are you doing(other than your back) Am going to the gym 4-5 days a week so I am working on it as much as I can..still having a problem getting in all my water and protein..but working on it every day..just not enough hours in a day!!

Hi Thanks for your post. I can't believe I am having back trouble...esp after losing weight. My brother noticed my ankles "pronate" when I walk..(turn in.)I think this may cause the back pain-I need a better sneaker. I go home tomorrow and will
check it out with a podiatrist? I guess. How are you doing? everything ok? Hope so. Janet

Hi Janet-- I'm with you I haven't lost much weight in the last couple weeks. This week I lost 3 so hoping this little stall is gone...met with my nut last week I can have salad in a month...yeah!! Right now fish, eggs, chicken...I tried cooked carrots last night didn't go so well stomach pains for a couple of hours..and I only had 3 small ones..had tilapia from a recipe I found on this site. What are you able to have?? Any reactions?? I can't wait to get released to go back to the gym should be soon..yeah. Then the weight should really come off..having problems getting all my protein in without shakes..liquids are tough too....feels like I'm always either eating or drinking every second in order to get everything in...just not realistic but I'm trying...glad you are doing well keep up the good work . Karen

Hi Karen,
I just read your last message now I can't find it. Duh. Still learning the site. You had a great cruise!!! How nice. And you got to enjoy it with your son and he got to take a friend. Sounds great to me.
I am glad you are doing well. I am ok. I seem to think I should lose weight faster.. but !! I am going to try to walk every day..(well 4 days a week) .. I think movement would be helpful.
Are you having trouble with any foods? Can you eat a salad yet?
Hopefully we are done with the snow!!!
Stay in touch. Janet

Hey Karen,
How was your cruise? FUN FUN FUN?You deserve it.
How is your weight loss going?
I am standing at the same weight right now. Think I lost 1/2 lb over tha past week... so annoying. I know I have to pick up on exercise.
I keep thinking if I could lose 4 more pounds...3 more...it would be so satisfying....
Janet
