Now, being called 'tiny' is a new thing for me...never in my life have I ever been called tiny. Lots of awful names, but not that... Thank you!

Well...if I lifted up my top to show my belly or showed my thighs or held my arm out, you see it flapping in the wind. It's there... :carrot:

SEWMAM: So nice to see you. you are so tiny. you look like you never had a weight problem. You play the dulcimer? Thats what I asked my hubby for for my b-day this summer so I can learn to play. I love the sound of them.

Thanks Carol! Yep, it is a Blue Lion mountain dulcimer. I just started playing it about 7 years ago. My hands were not strong enough to play guitar, to accompany myself singing, but the dulcimer is very simple and easier on the fingers. There are tons of dulcimer festivals and websites you can learn from - even the MelBay book/video is not bad... have fun!!! One more thing we have in common. :hug:

Just got a call kinda excited and nervous all at the same time. I am going see a plastic surgeon on either Monday or Thursday at 1pm to determine how much extra skin I have. Kinda scared actually, why I don't know but I am....lol

I think it's because you are getting close to your goal and the excitement is building... That, and letting a stranger see you, even though they are doctors and see this all time, is not fun. I did it, but it was sort of hard. You are one of the strongest people on this board and I'm sure you'll sail right through it...
Also, I'll try the 'paint' idea to merge several in-progress photos... thanks.

Well folks, the heat just plain did me in today. I got a little painting done, but after a point, it was not safe for me to be on a ladder. I tried an IP bar, spinach smoothie, ice water...just could not rally. Sorry, I just can't get through all the posts today, but welcome to all the newbees, congrats on all the success stories and hang-in-there to the people who are struggling. It won't always be like this. It'll be better....;)
