Calling all board members and lurkers! It's the start of November and a great time to start a roll call! Tell us your name, a little bit about your family, and where you plan on spending Thanksgiving this year! If you are a lurker and are reading this, it's a great time to come out and tell us all that you are here (plus is much more fun!) It's November and it's time for a Roll Call!

Gypsy here. I'm 62. Married to my DH for 33+ years, and we have a grown DD of 28. And our Mika dog, who is my "exercise guru." :)) I joined Weight Watchers last July 2008 and was successful losing my excess weight of 80+ pounds. I am now in the throes of learning how to maintain my weight with the healthy lifestyle I have learned from WW. For me, I'm finding that a much more difficult challenge than the losing journey. <:O We will be going, as per usual, to my DH's younger sis & family's for the feast. They cook the yummy turkey & fixin's and the rest of us bring something to go with the meal. We are looking forward to seeing the extended family. A 3 hr. or so drive one way, with all the holiday traffic, but worth it to see everyone! ;))

Blessings,
Gypsy

My name is Kristi. I'm 42 yo mom of 16 yo ds and 14 yo dd. Been married to dh for 15 years. I've been a gestational surrogate x3 - 6 yo ss, 5 yo sd and 3 yo sd. I've been working on losing weight on my own with a lot of help from my stint with WW and using many of the tips and tricks I learned there. I've lost 60+ pounds with just under 15 to go. I'm very positive and motivated and would never in a million years tell anyone "if I can do it anyone can" because I truly do not believe that at all. However, I do believe we all have it in us to do it, we just have to find our trigger.

As is fairly usual, we will be spending Thanksgiving with DH's family which will be a hoot because most of them have not seen me since the big weight loss. I'm really excited to get reactions!

My name is Cathi--I'm a RN in labor & delivery and work nights. I have 4 kids-ages 9 to 16 yrs and CL the Surviving Middle & High School board (if you have a MSer or HSer, come on over and visit us!). We live in Minnesota--with DH, Mike. I'm not sure where we're spending Thanksgiving--we alternate between my parents and the inlaws and none of us can remember where we spent it last year LOL! I THINK it's the inlaws turn, but I"m not positive--waiting to hear from my parents if they recall us being there last year.
