LOL! Yeah, me too! I've been told that time has elastic properties. I know that in the early morning when the alarm goes off and I close my eyes for just a minute, next thing I know, I'm an hour late for work. At work I look at the clock, an hour later look again...only to find out it's really been a full 60 seconds since the first time I looked!

Thank you Shelley! Still having trouble believing the last two years and four months! Feeling great! Extremely pleased with the results from both the RNY and my plastics. Now if I could get the hot flashes under control again. Never satisfied ;)

I want to play! You three look so good that I am inspired to finally take a photo to put on here!

Hope you are all having ok weather, it was 82 degrees here in Southern California yesterday, and will be again today. Of course that came with a 4.4 earthquake at 1:35 this morning! Hot weather out of season always brings them.. This Friday is the anniversary of a really bad one, hope the one this morning is all we get for this season!

Have a great day, and keep inspiring all of us!

Please DO post pictures! I get soooo excited when I see all the good stuff that has happened was a result of getting our lives back in order! Sweetie came across my morning of RNY surgery tonight. OMG. I was sort of surprised at my reaction. So sad. That picture represents my response to lots and lots of icky stuff over my entire life. I'm sure many here can relate. I'm going to up load it and my now pictures very soon. I'm really VERY inept at computer work, knowing just enough to get into some real trouble ;)

I'll be looking for your pictures! We need lots of validation to help our eyes really see the changes!

Blessing!

    Food Allergy?

    My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
