Well, it's official... I'm moving to San Diego this weekend! It took awhile to finalize everything but it's all settled now, and I'll start my new job May 5th! I flew out last weekend and found a basic apartment in the ritziest area of La Jolla, a block from Children's Beach (home of many very smelly and cute baby seals). It's worth having a small but basic place to get that ocean view and the sound of surf at night. Bungee and I will be spending a lot of time walking the shore and visiti...

Saturday: attended graduation, a quick lunch, packed my nieces belongings in o...

Today's my 3 month bandiversary, and I'm officially down 50 lbs total (38 since surgery). Boy, does that feel GOOD! I've had one small adjustment as of last week, and it's made a big difference in how quickly I fill up. I'm feeling pretty optimistic that another 10 lbs will be gone by Xmas.
To celebrate, I donated 6 bags of oversized clothes so someone else can make use of what I can no longer wear... and I had a cookie. Hee hee hee...
Since it's thanksgiving week, I can say confi...
