Hello everyone Laura - Congrats! I am glad you are feeling better Jane I made it to the dr today, and after being crazy waiting for over an hour in the room, thinking the worst, he comes in, tells me my gall bladder is only fuctioning at 40% and when do i want to have it out? We can do it now... we can schedule when i want to do it or wait until i have another attack, which could be any day, or 6 months... I told him i prefer not to do it on an emergency basis so I'm scheduled for Jan 16 for surgery unless I have an attack and it will come right out. I'm going to make eggs and see if i can eat those. My lock on my potty was frozen so i didn't really eat or drink today

Ok now i'm ticked... just lost a great personal post.... Jane (((((HUGS)))))) good luck today Laura - I'm so excited for you today, can't wait to hear Tracyk- were you taking those pictures in the middle of the night????? hmmmmmmmm which one is crazier that or the snow itself? LOL Kat - that must be such a great feeling for Gary to know there is a Dr that actually takes the time to care ok, everyone else... hey got to go... ice storm here Test results at 10:30 - big morning

Jane Hugs girlfriend... your story sounds similar to mine these days. My iron was ok but zink is low, i had to have the same CT done because the resident dr said it was my kidney and i had to have radioactive crap on Monday. I go to see my dr tomorrow at 10:30 for test resultas and what is next I'll keep you in my prayers tomorrow. Laura + can't wait to hear what your results are... I say boy good nigh all - for real

thought i would pop in - just sat down... was goingto grout the tiles but i decided i would be better if i did that tomorrow and i got on my hands and knees with a super bleach mix and scrubbed the tiles that are going to be under the cabinets, there was left over thinset and mud from the walls and just dirt. Tomorrow i'll grout when they are dry, we are getting the cabinets in and somewhat placed and i have to run 1 outlet and the new line for my ice maker. I'm actually going to have a kitchen... yipee what will i do with all my time... LOL ok bathroom is next then finish laundryroom yuck, ok i think i am going to take a shower, all i can smell is bleach

Hi gals just a quick check in, had meetings this morning and it has been crazy, snowed yesterday and down pour this morning i look like a drowned rat Anyway, I had so many personals but i can't remember because someone walked in and i had to shrink down... i hate when that happens I'm still on cup o soup 45 cals each... yummy, i'm not even starving anymore. Tomorrow is my appt to get results, but now whatever has to happen is going to wait, leaving Friday and can't wait!!!!! Tracyk - that is awesome what you wrote about where you are... I think that is why i've not moved, not gaining, not loosing.. and i'm pretty active and healthy... but i want more now - but that is ok, either way i'm overall pretty happy,.... just cut my belly off! Love the tables Laura Here is the kitchen painted and the Island in... Monday i'll have pictures of cabinets

Haydee I feel the exact same way lately, i'm not happy with a 16 but when i was shopping last night looking at the 16 thinking it was way too big... I remember looking at a 24 thinking I can't possibly be that huge! I should be so poud of myself too! I bought my first 16's for our trip in May so it has been a long time, but it is super nice for the bloat and gas to be going away! Now if they can just fix me i'll be good. LOL Ok they can fix me after the holidays and i won't eat too much

oh no Judy... I'm going to Buffalo on Friday so you have to keep that... lol

Morning gals just wanted to check in, it is freezing here, January temps so I have to leave a little early to let my car warm up and a bunch of other crapola to make it on time. Hope you all have a great day and Thanks Laura... I'm even happier this am because it is an easy 14 and woke up and it is that time of month... that is almost unheard of... and i'm down another lb and i tried to eat yesterday.... yea... finally, even if it is being sick that got me back on track.

HI HAPPY TRACY - I'm sitting here having a drinkypoo with you went to Target to get a plaid skirt for this weekend.... and besides they didn' have one in my size (I got a black wool lined one) I actually fit ino a size 14... I know lots of you gals are in a 10, but i'm so stinking happy i can't stand myself. I've been fighting the inbetween size for months and the skirt fit perfect without tights. I got a cute red tank type thing and i'm going to wear a black sweater with it. I am so glad going down, althought i'm hungry, i went to get a bite to eat with dd and i ordered a chicken cesar salad and had 3 bites and cannot eat any more - I'll stick to soup, but trying to get protein of some kind I hope you all have a great night, i'm going to relax and go to bed, i have to get up early tomorrow for work, so much to do so i can leave Friday

Morning everyone I'm up, mom is in a bad place and the last couple of days has decided she needs to nag me to get out of bed in the morning - this does not work for me, so she left in a complete tizzy cause i was a bitch. I know she is tired and having long hard days orienting her new job, but don't nag me, it is hard enough for me to get up and i can't close my door because of my fireplace and the stupid cat jumps on me all night long. Anyway, i'm off to the hospital for some function test on my gall bladder, it is freezing in here an -18 out with the wind chill this is January temps for us and i don't like that either Jane good luck to you today too! Pamela, the kitchen will be "old mexico" tomorrow, i'll get pictures of it then and when i get home this weekend the cabinets will be up. everyone have a great da

Morning ladies i don't know why i'm awake but i am. I went to work yesterday, came home, my plumber was here getting water to my new island (YIPEE) and then i put primer on the walls and then put my final coat on the ceiling. I'll have a painted kitchen by Tuesday! I need to wait for my dad to get electric to the Island to actually use the garbage disposal and my pasta cooker but it is so nice to have running water. I'm going to take the kids to breakfast, I think i'm going to order 1 scrambled egg and see how that goes, at least it would be protein if i can choke it down. Going to finish my last couple of cut tiles and then going to kingston with my dad, which sucks because it is snowing here Hope you all have a great day

Terry Until Thursday, I did have some French Onion soup at applebees last night without the cheese,... mmmmmmmmm i'm getting my bullet out to make some shakes and going to try to get some tuna maybe tomorrow, or some scrambled eggs. I'm over the hump of being starving. I am taking my multi vitimins so i'll be ok.. Thanks for being concerned the 13th is the holiday party they are putting me up for the weekend, i'm really looking forward to it. I'm going to find something to wear this week, nothing like putting things off. LOL going for a walk around the site... it is only 18 degrees and i'm freezing

Hey good morning everyone Michelle, how sad about your neighbor Terry - YOU LOOK SO AWESOME! (and really cute too) Kat - that is horrible - I agree with Terry - can't we all just get along? Tracyk- good luck with your visit Pam - I saw a KidRock Post the other day, he has a couple of tour dates released when he gets back from overseas, 2/14 he is going to MGM Grand at Foxwoods in CT, a 21/2 hr drive for me, so i'm just praying tickets are left after the 1st of the year when I don't have the xmas expense and I'm all over that. Going to stay right at MGM and I would assume he is going to stay somewhere too, since he is there on the 15th too. I'm feeling better but have not had anything other than cup of Soup for Breakfast, lunch and dinner and sodium free broth and s/f Jello for 4 days, good thing... i got rid of some bloat and am back down to 204 from 210 on Sunday - I hope to get well into onderland being sick, with hopes that i can hold it when i'm able to eat, or at least stay in onderland, i only hit is for a day or 2 so i guess it doesn't count. I'm going for some more test on Monday and Thursday an appt with Dr. Friday I leave for Buffalo for the weekend and I'm going to finish up my secret santa present while i'm there so i can get it in the mail on the 15th. xmas cards... holy smokes, have not even started have a great day, i have to get some work done and go check on the guys. going home to paint the kitchen - i'll have cabinets next weekend!

Laura childbirth and hospitals are great... ok not really but i'm funny on pain meds and they all found me totally entertaining My electrician came in when i was typing... So Monday i do the function test and Thurs i go for a follow up I'm going to call there tomorrow, he knows it has been months of jabbing pain and knows it is my gall bladder, but if it was my kidney... why no other test? anyway, i'm going to bed, it was a long drawn out day and i'm exhausted

I'm home from work, what a mess after the ultrasound guy poked at me for 30 minutes i had tears running down my face and couldn't breathe but don't have gall stones... for some reason i knew that you don't have to have stones for your gall bladder to be bad... so then i go up to the dr and i see his resident... ya'll know where this is going right? He pokes and tells me he thinks i have an infection in my kidney..... but because i'm not having issues urinating.... it must be a blood spread infection... WHAT?????? I now have tears again and couldn't talk because he was poking the the hell out of my back and side I was 1000 times worse, i couldn't even talk. So Dr Singh comes in ... pretty much humors the resident and sends me for a CT Scan of my abdomen??? again WHAT???? that does't hurt! Anyway, he says it is a possibility but he is not saying it is not my gall bladder, there is a condition where it does not function properly... HELLO... so Monday i'm going to have a 2 hr test done on my gall blader function

Hi everyone Jane - CONGRATS on the -2 Haydee, good luck trying to get the photo on Laura - I LOVE the tables Well, I am hungry.... feel like day 7 after surgery when i was told no food yet and was still on liquids... probably head hungry but i have not done this in a long time only had 2 cups of soup today and the rest was all just sodium free broth and s/f jello... Mom is here and she was not here ever during my post surgery or post fill can't eat but hungry stages so it is not going well to say the least I have to be at the hospital at 8:30 and 9am ultrasound and 9:30 with surgeon... man do i hope they take me away. I was telling my friend that after he pressed on me i puked and she laughed and said.... "oh yeah... I forgot to warn you about that part" Nice friend huh? Anyway, going to put ds to bed, and maybe go to bed myself, cause i'm hungry night all!

I can't drink any soda I just can t wait to feel better, it is getting worse, the neasua anyway - pain is steady but not horrible Sure does explain a lot i'm doing straight sodium free broth and jello today, if i can even choke that down,

Morning everyone Pam nice to have you back ((hugs)) i'm so bloated from all the cup of soup, gong to run to the store at work and get som jello I don't know what i can do as far as liquids, he didn't say clear liquids so what can i do that is low sodium? Jane - i'm so sorry you are in a funk.... you know i've been in one for months, so i can relate 100% ((((hugs))))) you can always call me if you want to chat I hope everyone has a good day, i have to get dressed and head to work

hope you all have a good night

Oh... Tracy then because I have not been able to eat for a month and eat what ever will go down i should be happy that i'm only bouncing 5-7 lbs... LOL I've been in the same place... but the pkg of gasx every other day is due to gall bladder so hopefully that bloat will go away and I can get back on track... OMG... will he have to unfil me?

hi guys Judy, chocolate is my favorite, Haydee, I have to say yours does sound very warm too...(might have to check that out) I have a large living room, the lenght of my house, which was seperated by a fireplace that was built out 6' into the room so it divides them, but they are all painted and furnished as if they were 1 Well, Made it back from the dr...after he pressed on my gall bladder - said it had to go, i got up, walked down the hall and puked... made it downstairs... and puked again. Going for an ultrasound 8:30 Thurs and up to him when it is done to give me a date.... On a liquid diet until I see him, and i'm sure until surgery hmmmmmmmmm Jello again :cursing:

I am going to repaint my living room since it is off the kitchen... What colors are your living rooms???? I am not 100% sure which way to go and would love to hear what you guys have I also found a really great chocolate/green combo when i was looking and want that for my room Thanks

Morning today is gall bladder dr day. Of course i'm so bloated on up to 208 so with clothes on i'm sure it will be 210 when i get there... i'm so disgusted with myself Tracy, is that how you did it... oatmeal and soup? what kind of soup? although i don't know if i could even choke down oatmeal right now, just because of how i feel Judy, i love hot tubs in the snow.... Have a good day

Hey gals i don't know if you all know how much you all mean to me Thank you for all just being you!

Morning gals running late but we have company at work today so i know there is no way i can check in, drinking my coffee trying to wake up - i have not slept good in a week Terry- I love your jewelery, you are so talented Judy - i had a fire roaring Saturday night - just so relaxing Denise - The girls are right, doesn't make it easy but there is a reason if she looses the baby. The summer before i got preg with ds, We went on vac in August, I knew i was preg ... 100% knew it but all test came out neg. I was taking diet pills, jet skiing, working out like a mad woman (i did look hot) and puking my brains out. I finally went to gyno and was told i was preg, but my levels were very low, next day started bleeding and had to have my levels checked every other day for a week. Lost the baby Anyway, it was horrible, I was14 weeks along (i've lost a few but never that far) I was an emotional basket case... and 6 mos later, it started all over again, so i took it easy even when test was neg, i was taken out of work 3 times! Jane- I love the bookmark- you are just amazing with your crossstitch, what details and patience well, off to get dressed and to work... I won't be able to check in so i hope you all have a good day
