Gosh-darn-rootin-tootin' Time!

A week late, but I am officially 30 pounds lighter since surgery.  It's 20 shy of my original goal for 1 year out but since I went 4 months without follow up immediately after surgery, I'm giving myself until August 2 to lose those 20 pounds.

In other news, tomorrow I'm meeting "The Queen Bee".  :-)  I'm also going shopping for a new dress to wear to Hubster's graduation, which is just 3 weeks away.  I'll be putting in my notice this upcoming week and May 18 will be my last day with this medical squadron.  I'm working on transferring my license to Maryland, where we we will be headed at the start of June, as well as sending out resumes.  Cross your fingers I can find something at the small clinic on the military installation we're headed to.

Also, I'll be leaving for B.O.O.B.s from Baltimore, so if anyone else is heading out from there and knows of any deals, please share.  Not sure yet if I'm going to fly or drive (might have to drop the kiddos off at Grandma and Grandpa's along the way).   Not to mention if you're in the Baltimore area and would like to get together, let me know, too!

Hope you all are having a great weekend!

One Year Later

Today it's been a year since I was banded.  I have lost 34 pounds from my highest weight and 27 since the surgery day and I am still fat.
