Catch up ;)

Hi guys!!!!


I am so sorry I haven't been blogging as much lately. I have been swamped at work!!! Our receptionist is on maternity leave and since I am the next in line I have been doing my job and hers as well! Oh, I don't think I have ever mentioned what I do for a living???? I work for a non-profit organization funded by United Way called Early Intervention. Anyone ever heard of it? It is a state mandated program that is available everywhere. I work for the the one that services the county I live in! We provide case management services, occupational therapy, speech therapy, physical therapy, and family training services free to families with children 0-3 in age that have some sort of disability or developmental delay. I am the office coordinator (glorified Secretary) and do all the medical billing for our program. So basically I bill medical claims all day!!!!! :) Anyway.....that was way off subject!!!


What has been going on in the life of Mary???


The scale finally moved!!!! Yay!!!!! I seriously have been grinning from ear to ear! I am down 23 lbs! I know that isn't a lot compared to some other peoples loses, but I am ecstatic!!! It really just seems unreal......Have I really done this????? 23 lbs gone! FOREVER!!! :)


What's changed since the loss? Well, I fit in the bath tub better. I never really realized it was a tight squeeze before......it is way more roomy now!!! I painted my toenails last night. I have always been able to do this, but it was easier. I didn't realize it was hard before, but now since my 23 lb weight loss I have noticed it is easier!!!! I have not gone down any sizes in clothes! But, I have come to the realization that I was more likely a size 26 before my surgery. I always said I was a 24. I don't think so anymore! I think my mind just couldn't except a 26!!! I feel better also!


I am able to eat protein now, which is what I contribute my extra weight loss to!!!! I love some meat!!!!!


I have not been able to read very many blogs lately....but it's not because I don't want to, I just don't have the time!


Know I still love ya'll! Know I am proud of you!!!!!!
