Oh, you are doing fantastic! Congrats, my sweet friend! 

:D I weighed myself five times just to be sure! I was/am ecstatic! You were a HUGE help with this and I thank you so much. My daughter was another (surprising) source of great advice and support. I feel SO much better.. the spinning out of control seems to have stopped! Thank you, thank you, thank you! 

Aw, I just told you what you already knew deep down. Love ya, D!!  

Well alrighty then. Happy dance is in store for you. Dance, Dance, Dance the day away....congrats buddy.......Bren 

S- you also advised me to not worry so much about the exercise until I get a handle on the food. I wasn't sure at first, but am convinced now. And that wasn't something I knew! hahaha... Don't get me wrong - I still think exercise is critical for me to be able to keep it off long-term, but I think you were so right. Food first - figure that one out, feel success, then start adding in exercise. I'm taking your advice, and will start slowly. I may have jumped in and expected to be able to handle a 1 1/2 hr. intense workout just like that (snap). But I believe now that although my body can handle it, my appetite can't! So I'll start slowly, aim for 30 min. a day and maybe a walk in the evening on those days when my husband can get home early enough. And I SO want to try the kettle bells. I have a Jillian Michael's dvd I haven't busted open yet! I should watch it and see. Thanks again, S, and I love you! You know that!  

Oh, D, I am so glad that I could help in any small way. You are going to be just Fine. And yes, slowly on the exercise. I do love my kettle bell and I use the exercise routine that came with it from Danskin. Gen Miller is awesome. You had a long layoff from the surgery, and need to build back up to it again. Love ya, back, my friend! 

I'm happy because you're happy!:) Have a wonderful evening!
