Doni, sending you my best! I hope graduation day gets some great weather, that you are getting lots of NSVs from those who've not seen you since you began MF (you look awesome!) and that you'll soon be back to posting with us. I miss you!

OMG Tawanda & Chynna.....I absolutely love the new avatars. You guys look great. :yes:

Thank you everyone for checking in on me......

I just wanted to pop in to let everyone know I am still here. I apologize for not being more supportive lately. I have been so busy at school with the end of the year stuff. Things have been really hectic. And then when I get home all I do is clean and get stuff ready for the big event (graduation & party) this weekend. I hope to be back and active with you guys again after the weekend is over. I have a lot of reading to do. ;)

I have managed to stay 100% compliant since my slip-up last weekend. I'm a little miffed at the fact that I have only dropped 1.5# of the 3# that I gained over the weekend. But.....I guess I must realize there are consequences to my actions. I have found it a little harder to gladly pass on off-plan foods this week. There have been 2 showers at school this week, and, of course, great food at both of them. I politely said "NO", but not without thinking "I would love to say "YES". Before my slip, I said "NO" without even a thought. Hopefully, I will get back to that.

This weekend may be a little rough with all the house guests and the party. I'm planning to have things at the party that I can eat.

BTW....my arm is pretty much back to normal. I still have a little tenderness right around the incision, but other than that.....I'm good. I go back to the DR. on Monday for a follow-up.

Well, I really need to get back to work. I'm sooooooo far behind.

Hi guys....just popping in to say HI!!! The weekend went great! The party turned out to be exactly what we had hoped for. The weather was beautiful. Graduation was a little long. My son has 404 students in his class. We can't even have graduation here in our town as there is no where large enough to house the crowds of people attending. Our school district rents out the Family Arena (where a minor league hockey team plays) in a town about 30 miles away.

I was so proud of him. He has struggled so much with school but persevered. He even ended up graduating with dean's honors and perfect attendance all the way through high school. I was quite the proud mama.

On a MF note.....I hate to report that I have been off-plan for about 3 days. It's kinda funny that I made it through the weekend OK only to find myself cheating after all of the stress was over. Tuesday was my last day of school. The staff celebrates by having a BBQ and then we go golfing. It was a great day!!!! ;) Even though I have been off plan, I have been somewhat careful. I am still at ticker weight which is a good thing, but I'm not to goal yet, so I need to continue on. I am back on plan today and I plan to continue from here. I'm not going to beat myself up for being off plan. It was decision I made and I will just have to live with it.

I did take a look at my "HOME" journal that I keep, and, basically, I haven't lost any additional weight in May. I reached my 40# on April 25, and I really haven't moved much below that. I know this will probably prevent me from reaching my goal by the time my DH and I take our anniversary trip in August. But, what's more important is that I don't stop. I really want to finish this.

I've really missed coming here and I've really missed you guys.

I'm pretty much done with things at school, but I still have some work to do. I start summer school next Wednesday.

Well, I'm off to the DR.'s again. Getting blood work done today just as a check up. I want to make sure my cholesterol is good, etc.

I'll try to come back on again later. I need to catch up on everyone.
