I have not had a single moment to post on here!  It's crazy wonderful!  I am busy ALL the time now!

I am working out M-W-F at 24 hour fitness on machines, eliptical, and treadmill and sometimes bicycle.  Then on T & TH I go to water aerobics!

If anyone would have told me that I was going to have the strength or wish to exercise I would have said they were crazy!  But I do!!!  and I love it!

My house is cleaner too!  I had reached a point where I didn't clean my house as well as I use to when I was first married.  I had reached a point where I ate out all the time and didn't cook good meals anymore too!  Now, I love to cook for my family (well LOVE may be too strong) but I enjoy it for sure!  I like cleaning the house to some really good music again too!  It's wonderful!  My husband hasn't said anything about the cooking or the cleaning but I am sure he has noticed because everything in the bedroom is F A N T A S T I C!!!  Oh, maybe that was T M I.  Sorry.

This picture is making my face look elongated when really I had reached 300 pounds when I decided to have the surgery and began the process back in the end of October.  Now I weight 223 pounds and only have 78 pounds to go to goal!!!!  I will make it too!  I am not going to post any pictures online until I am under 200 so be watching because HERE I COME!!!

Oh, and I even went and got my motorcycle license and have been driving my Buddy 125 back and forth to work each day - 96 miles to the gallon.  One day I hope to graduate to a a Honda 250.  I am looking into Salsa dancing classes as well.  FUN FUN FUN!!!

It is so nice to be back at work.  I am only working half days but it has been so nice to be back!  I work with a great group of guys who have been nothing but wonderful through this transition.  In fact, they just HAD to welcome me back with a surprise.  They master minded an elaborate set up I assure you!  My desk was all messed up because they rearranged everything and taped everything   everywhere!  There was a string hanging from the ceiling which they knew I would eventually pull in my "cleaning" process and boom - SNOW!  Packing peanuts came pouring down from the ceiling and every time someone opened the door and closed it more would fall.  I'll post pictures later.

I am still on the pureed part of the diet and I learned the other night that tuna fish with light mayo and pickle  juice is not ready to make it's debut in my stomach yet.  Whoa!  Thank God I didn't throw up but I sure thought it was going to happen any minute.  Other than that nigththings have been good.
I blended some Wendy's Chili with cheese in the blender and ate that for lunch today and it tasted grrreat!
