I have lots of health related goals, but since having WLS last July I have had 4 weight specific ones. On 1/15/08 I made the first goal, which was to make it to "Onderland" by weighing less than 200lbs. Today I made the second goal.

As of this morning I have lost over 100lbs since surgery! I weighed in at 178!!! Had to be 181 to make the goal.

I hope to make my third weight goal by 7/27/07 (my one year surgeriversary) which is to make it to 150lbs.

The 4th goal would really be just to maintain at or within 5lbs of my 150lb goal weight.

The current definition of "Witch" on dictionary.com is pretty ridiculous:

1. a person, now esp. a woman, who professes or is supposed to practice magic, esp. black magic or the black art; sorceress. Compare warlock.
2. an ugly or mean old woman; hag: the old witch who used to own this building.
3. a person who uses a divining rod; dowser.
–verb (used with object)
4. to bring by or as by witchcraft (often fol. by into, to, etc.): She witched him into going.
5. Archaic. to affect as if by witchcraft; bewitch; charm.
–verb (used without object)
6. to prospect with a divining rod; dowse.
–adjective
7. of, pertaining to, or designed as protection against witches.

I'll turn 65 in 2042. That means by the time I'm eligble for retirement all the money I have paid into SS will be gone.

Crap.
