    @cbabie I’m glad you’re feeling better. I love celebrating birthdays. You’re too funny about the salmon, but I get it. You probably wouldn’t like walking through the seafood market in Seattle. I forgot what it’s called. It’s the one where the employees throw the fish to each other.

    @fabgeekmom I agree. My work cares about the health and safety of their staff (and they just take care of us in many ways). I'm glad the weather has been nice enough for you to go for a walk. I love salmon.

    @cbabie I am so glad you are feeling better! The first day of spring is a nice day for a birthday, happy birthday to your daughter! Exactly, give me the dang pillow lol. I was so surprised when it escalated and became a thing. Yes, she does bring a good perspective.

    Hi all. Well, it's a good thing I went to see the surgeon. He thinks what is going on is that my stomach pouch is inflamed and I may have an ulcer as well. There is also the possibility that I have developed gallstones, so they are going to schedule an ultrasound of my gallbladder. For now, he gave me 5 prescriptions to take (2 of those are antibiotics)! The burning pain is gone since I started the meds but I haven't eaten anything since starting so I don't know if the other pain is gone. I lost 4 lbs this week and am getting close to Onederland! I'm at 210.4 lbs.

    @trooworld That’s too bad about the gallstones but good you don’t have the burning feeling after taking antibiotics. The 4 pound loss is really good. And so close to onederland! Hi, all. Today was a swim day. DS grilled the steaks and they were so good!

    @fabgeekmom Well, I may not have gallstones. He doesn't think I do, but he's doing an ultrasound to rule it out. Thank you! Good job with the swim. Yummy steak meal.

    Hi all. I am starting to feel much better: I don't have pain when I eat or drink anymore...well, not much. I am going to get my hair cut this morning and then later, meet some old coworkers for coffee. I hope to do some artwork at some point.

    I’m new and trying to figure out how the “community” aspect of this platform works. Anyway I signed up for this app originally 10/22 but after a day I left and decided to sign up for Noom. Loved and did it for about a year. Then took a break and realized I needed more “community” to help me with ongoing weight loss and joined Weight Watchers. Also loved that but when my membership expired I didn’t renew and now I’m back to this free platform. Hoping I love it too! Since Oct 2022 I have lost 55 lbs and have another 40 to reach my goal.

    @rosied1226 Welcome! I never really figured out the community aspect. But I did find this group and check in. After doing WW, the community is not the same as community on WW. I think you have to find the people you want to interact with.

    Thanks for letting me know. It’s definitely very different than WW but I’m sure this will work just fine!

    @trooworld That’s good news! It’s good that the surgeon is following up. That must be a load off your mind. It’s good that you’re feeling and eating better. Hi, all. It’s warmer here so I went for a walk. We’re eating out tonight. I’m not sure where.

    @rosied1226 Welcome! Congrats on your success so far, 55 lbs is awesome! You must feel so much better. Wishing you much luck and I hope to get to know you better.

    @fabgeekmom Yes and it is a load off my mind! I'm glad you got out for a walk. I hope you enjoyed dinner.

    Hi all. I got my haircut which I am happy with. Meeting up with my old coworkers was fun, it was nice to see them and hear what they've been up to. Later in the day/evening, my husband and I went to a coffee shop and I painted and drank coffee while he read. Then we walked around our favorite neighborhood and people-watched. It was fun.
