    What captured me is your expression in the arm photo. You look so happy and proud and kindof amazed. I love that!

    Wow, you look fantastic, limewave! I am normally not a big fan of plastic surgery, but I certainly think there are cases when it's completely appropriate. In folks who have lost a lot of weight, I can completely see the reasoning and need. No more hiding behind big, baggy clothes for you!

    Thanks everyone! I can't wait to start running and biking again. I can't imagine how different things are going to feel without that apron of skin. I also always used to get bad/painful rashes on my arms from the sleeves rubbing on my skin--I'm hoping that won't be an issue any more either.

    I felt good enough this weekend to do a bit of Christmas shopping for the kids. We went WAY overboard and bought our daughter a 2013 Salsa El Mariachi XS 29er!!!!! One of her mountain biking heros is Salsa sponsored Danielle Musto. DS will be so excited! It's definitely going to be a big bike for her. We made sure to take measurements and she will have decent standover. In fact, we looked at some 24" and 26" bikes and she'll have better geometry on the XS 29er than those. There was a 24" Scott cyclocross bike that DS had her eyes on. We considered that bike as well. But when we looked at it earlier this summer, it fit her perfectly. Which is not a good thing as she is young and growing a lot. We recently measured her and she grew 6" in ten months!

    I'm so excited for Christmas!
