Thanksgiving!

We have so much to be thankful for, where can you begin?? I know most of you know that I have been on a journey to lose weight since I had Lap Band surgery. It hasn't been easy since my insurance decided it wouldn't pay for any band fills which you must have once a month. If I have them done it would cost $300.00 every month out of my pocket! Well, I finally weighted myself today, it had been about 2 months since I had last weighted and I had lost another 12 pounds for a total of 42 lbs so far. It may not be alot to other people but for my it is, considering I thought I would have gained since I can't get the band fills anymore. So anyway that is something I am thankful for. We are going to see my Dad this weekend, its been about 4 months since we have seen him and I know he will be so excited to see the kids. It will be my Mom's birthday Saturday also, so we are planning a little surprise party for both of them. Dad's birthday was Oct. 30. Here is hoping everyone has a blessed Thanksgiving!

Even without the band fills, you will do fine if you exercise and eat everything in moderation (who's calling the kettle black...I just ate five chocolate chip cookies....it was a loooong day.)
Seriously, I think you'll keep making progress!!! Good job!!!
