I love the countdown.

Hi gals just checking in. my stomach is still a mess but feeling a bit better. lets see if that was enough to push me into onederland! Laura - I sent it to you with your NY trip in mind to keep you warm. after that... cover it in hair, give it away... I did'nt figure it was that cold there but was thinking about your business trip - so I won't be offended if it works for that and nothing else or doesn't work, just couldn't put it in the box. No final word on the job today so keep sending me the vibes!!! I'm anxious to start working ya'll had a busy day... judy, jump for me. I have not been to the gym in 3 weeks.

Tracyks is amazing.. Michelle, the storm is hitting here too... kids are home which is kind of nice because I don't have to bring ds to work with me, but omg... them alone is generally ok, me in the mix.. YUCK... want some cheese with that wine? DS was just hyperventelating because I was trying to lay down before work and dd would not let him go make his bed. my stomach is getting worse by the minute - tonight is going to suck

Tracyks - March 1, 2007 I was 278 Feb 1, 2008 200.5 I am wearing my favorite fat girl Old Navy sweatshirt which was comphy but fit last year, I'm swimming, but still my fav sweatshirt!. LOL

Laura - I hope you feel better, you haveto get rid of it before you come to NY to freeze you butt off.!!! LOL well, my closet is officially empty - my 3 new jeans and a couple of tops and my old/new dress. I'm going shopping to get some new clothes for my new job tomorrow. Nope they have not called yet, they are torturing me LOL I should have my tax money by the 15th, yipee, going to pay a couple of bills, and buy my plane ticket. I'm nervous about telling new job i need 3 days off. Hope it will be ok. I'll bring my laptop and phone if i have to, i'm gone! well...I think i have a stomach bug, and I'll leave it at that, but omg i feel horrible... my good friend had it last week, i told her to keep it to herself but don't think that worked. Not changing my ticker but 200.5 this am... motivation to stick to the rules this weekend!

OMG you guys are so funny this morning! Can you stand it, where we were last year at this time? and now share tmi with each other all the time, which is just friends talking and not really TMI anymore... LOL Well, just got a call from my guy at the agency - they are finishing up paperwork and wanted to make sure I was interested... I told him how excited I am so I should know today or Monday when my start date is! what a great week, this is my year... oh and the Y is right around the corner so I can workout on my way in or lunch or way home !

Is it May yet?

Hi gals keep the purple power coming for the job, I know it is mine but until he calls me with an offer... ya know. I am really tired tonight - totally sucked at work and i should have been out hours ago, but when someone doesn't do their job and leaves, I get to do thiers and mine, and Thurs I have a ton of my own crap to do Can't wait for that phone call Go Tracyks I love the pic i'm off to slumber land, falling over tired

OMG he emailed me right back! He is checking my references and will advise. yipee!

OMG ... is it May yet? It is so cold here and I want to leave now!. LOL Since I would not have time to mail out a Thank you card (since I'm going to get this job by Monday) I just sent him a thank you email. Not going to waste any time, he told me to take his card and email him if I had any questions, so I'm all over it! did I mention this is my job! Judy, yep, that is right, feel flat to get a straight haircut... but it is a good feeling about crossing your legs. I'm holding out on the diet until Monday, not going to know I can eat real food until superbowl parties are over! I am taking 2 bags of clothes with me today, each going to different friends, different needs. I have 2 more bags of salvation army clothes but only want to make 1 trip, going to go through ds's and dd's clothes this weekend. I have the cutest dress in the entire world. It fits... a little snug and I hope to have it taken in for our trip, but I'm figuring it will be perfect in 3 months! I don't ever remember wearing it where it fit me! ever! well i'm off to deliver clothes and get ds. ttfn

I'm back!!! I will know the beginning of next week but I am the top canidate and he is calling to check my references! THIS JOB IS MINE>>> THIS JOB IS MINE It is a dream job for me, closings, attorneys, zoning, and codes.... it is all about me... my school and work all into one! I just called my references to let them know that they would be getting calls - I'm so very excited! To have me back, new improved and stronger and better than ever!

good morning gals well... Today is the day.... 10am my time, send me purple power.. this job is mine, this job is mine, this job is mine...

Thanks gals for all your good thoughts, I'm home from work, just made a cup of my night time camomile tea - decaf, going to try to relax and pass out. I am so excited that I WILL BE WORKING. I'm not even going to give not getting it any power. Tracyks - no... LOL that guy was pretty open... this is just another one ... WTF? Right? why would people get this crazy impression? I did date a married guy who was separated but as soon as Mrs. moved back and they were working it out I bailed. Isn't there a normal one out there for me?

LOL I just mushed up some chili to take to work, no time for pudding. anyway, have a great evening ladies. I'm off to work!

Haydee I just got a fill, I have been eating pudding with protein powder and puree'd soup for the last 8 days. That is what fills me and is working so I'm sticking with it. Clear liquids for me per my strict surgeon was after surgery only - make sure you get protein... HUGS

I don't have a clue... I just for once would like to find someone normal. DBF has been super and now all of the sudden is strange again, after lunch. I'll never figure it out On a happy note. I was just cleaning out my closet. OMG I'm in all my 16's. I have a skirt that looks yucky because of my tummy but fits. it still has the tags on it! Another one, I bought in hopes that I could lose after ds, needless to say gained 60lbs... well it fits. I am keeping 3 skirts and that is it the rest is gone! I am wearing a pr of capri's that a friend gave me that were way tight in Sept when she gave them to me. They are borderline big at this point. I think cleaning my closet was a good thing, and going back to work wearing nice clothes is going to be a great thing for me, although, I've never ever loved wearing jeans like i do now. I LOVE MY BAND

Can someone please tell me why MEN are so immature and all a bunch of Ass holes (sorry)???? Can you stand it i"m not talking about dbf... I have stalkers... 1 is married and the other is the other guy I've mentioned here and there... WTF... Leave me alone. I have my ringer on my phone turned off and I swear he was just outside my house calling me! (the married one) I don't want drama and bs in my life... I just got an alert that I have a vm but I'm ignoring it. I don't need this shit, he called and put me on the spot this am when I was just walking downstairs. I'm going to go up and clean out my closet. UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH and people wonder why i'm mental? LOL

Michelle download ding again, I did it after you mentioned it and there are short term deals (to March) right now but you to tx is only $64 each way!

Funny, now that you all mention it, My dishwasher use to be full of dinner plates, now we only use them when we are out of smaller ones. I have a salad bowl, but is not deep that we use for everything, or the salad plates that go under them, i used to use them for ds becaue it was enough to keep him from making a huge mess when eating but perfect size. That is what I use. LOL Kat, My cousin who was banded, I just heard from her the other day. Remember she had her port moved, well after that I guess it didn't work and she had to have it removed, I don't have exact details, but then she ended up with MRSA and has been very sick. She was just banded in October and has had nothing but problems. I feel so horrible for her. I know some dr's are good, but she was approved and done in a month. No major prep work, nothing, standard pre op testing and done. I did so much research with my Dr and was annoyed at times at what I had to do but think it helped me loose the weight and prepared to change my life. She is just so very sick with MRSA, she now has a cath for her meds and her band, no port nothing. I am so sad for her and that it has been so bad. So ladies, I guess when we get hard on ourselves, shoot, I started loosing pre surgery in Mid Jan, I have lost almost 80lbs in a year. I could not have done that without my band and I am thankful that my dr. is a hard ass but is concerned about safety and me. I'm not just a number (which is why i was so upset at my PA visit last month, i felt like a number for the first time). I guess that goes along with the tip of the day! plus, I would not have met all you without my band

That is why it is so quiet!!! LOL Kat... where are you??????????/

Tracy - For me, it will be so much easier when spring is here, I can go for a walk at night, but way too cold now. So last night after I survived the movies with a couple pcs of s/f hard candy, I get home and mom is tearing the cabinets apart looking for something to snack on... I won't even let her make popcorn! Are you kidding me? I've had nothing but pudding and chili for a week now and you want to make popcorn at 10pm? And nothing I could do to get out. I'm going to torture them all LOL DD is having a superbowl party - got her 2 bags of chips, mini hotdogs, and making garbage bread. I told her everything had to be cleaned up and in the trash by time I got home, which shouldn't be a problem since the game will be over by then. I feel like the first month of banding when we couldnt eat but wanted to, except it is much easier now - I do tend to throw more away If I make something that is not really part of the lifestyle, if i have it, have it once and get rid of it so not to get on a downward sprial! anyway. blah blah bah off to shower and do some running, now that I just had the strongest coffee in the world... should look for chest hair after that pot! LOL only kidding

I had the guys at the bar hit on me when I went out with my friends in November, and it felt GREAT! and I got a little cocky and then didn't loose an ounce. LOL but I'm back on track now. I wouldn't know what I would do if I am actually asked out... nervous breakdown time, but it is coming, i can feel it

I had my surgery at Albany Med, they have strict rules but I love them!. Good luck to everyone who was or is about to be banded, I wouldn't change it for anything

Congrats TracyK!!! so close I would love to catch up, that is only 4lbs away from my goal. I'll be happy to hit onderland and then i'll set my next mini goal. Very excited, tomorrow is my big interview. Nervous???? Who me? LOL

I'm giong to bed... just have to tell you all my NSV today, it is kind of funny. I was meeting my mom at the grocery store... I still don't know why but I did, so she is shopping away and i was walking up to her, made serious eye contact and she turned around and walked away WTF??? so I yelled JAN... she turns around - looked right at me and started to turn around again.. she said OMG you are so tiny, I didn't even know it was you... then she waked right by me at the register... are you kidding me... my own mom didn't know me!
