Some Mid-Afternoon Thoughts After 2nd Fill

I just got my 2nd fill which gives me a total of 6 cc’s of liquid.  My band can hold 10 cc’s of liquid.  Dr. Champion says that most people get between 6-8 cc’s of fluid in their bands.  It seems, according to my doctor, that this fill should give me noticible restriction.  I feel [...]

Girl, You Got A Whole Lotta Tall On You Now!

I have to say – the MOST excited people to see me since my weight loss are Carol & Maxine.  They are the two women who have cleaned my house in Marietta for the past several years.  Carol and I go way back. How about the time she yelled at me for not picking up [...]

Death, Gasoline & String Cheese

My week started off with a dead body. Literally. Right there on the road next to Marlow’s Tavern on West Peachtree. I saw a dead body – being put into a tan-colored body bag. CSI was there holding up sheets so people couldn’t see, but I saw. The dead body. CSI seems way cooler when [...]

Share With The Group!

Ugh. Totally feeling frustrated. I think I’ve hit a plateau. I can’t seem to shake off this fluctuating between being down between 40-45 pounds. Everyone says, “But that’s a lot of weight!” And, it is! But with how hard I’ve been working, I feel like I should be down at least 50 by now. Just [...]

Piedmont Park 2. The High Museum 3. Fox Theatre 4. Atlanta Botanical Garden’s [...]
