I sent Jenn a text message, and told her that Kat sends her love, she has an endoscopy tomorrow, and then hopefully the gallbladder. I will be at work all day tomorrow, so can someone text me the outcome? Thanks!! Boy can I tell a huge difference between being down to 2 cc's in my 10 cc band and having nothing!! I am totally open!! I emailed this clinic that Suzanne found for me that is in K.C. but has an office in St. Peters here, she says she will take me and I will call on Monday for all the specifics. I originally have the end of February to get a fill, but I am thinking if all goes well with my health, the end of January, maybe even sooner. I am so bad right now with my eating. Anything and everything. Plus we go back to court on the 9th (next friday) for final sentancing. That will be a hard hard day. I wish all you gals good luck and purple vibes to all the 5 day pouch test participants! Glad your back safe Laura, baby bump is toooo cute!!! Kat and Judy when are your due dates? Thanks for the card Suzanne!! TracyK did the calendar I sent you fall apart? Mine did when I opened it up, so if it did, let me know and will have a new one sent out to you. Pamela, if you sent a email about your encounters last night I didn't get it!!! Heres to a Happy New Year!!!!!!!

I hope this finds everyone having a great New Years Eve. Except Jenn, I hope she is getting some good drugs so she feels better!! The Dr. called and they said that the pnemonia still has not completely resolved itself. So I will go back in two weeks and see if it has then. I still have not heard from the biopsies, but I am going to guess they showed pnemonia? I am so smart aren't I???? Jane

Tracyk, you have a problem with cysts don't you? I hope that it is nothing more serious. That would be super duper painful if you had to have a mammogram!! Hugs! I am off to work, just wanted to wish everyone a safe and happy new year!!!!! Thanks for all your help this year!!!!!!!!!! A very Grateful Jane!

Have a great trip Judy!!! Thanks Heather, I thought that too, but they are just willing to split the fees with me. I guess under the circumstances it could be worse!! Still no results from Dr. I went today and the results from my broncoscopy weren't back yet, plus the wbc they did today won't be back til tomorrow. So I know nothing!! Feel a little better tonight though. Jane

Tracyk looks like you are down another 2 pounds!! Go girl!!! Have a good day everyone!!! Jane

Tracyk, when I checked your tracking # it said you got your package today. I hope so!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just emailed them!! That would be so nice, and they do all their fills under flouro, I have never had one done this way. They always have trouble finding my port, it usually takes them 20 or 30 minutes. I AM DONE COMPLAINING!!!!!!!!!! At least for today!!

Tracy, that is not belly aching! You have every right!!!!

I went to Wash U, I had Dr. Halpin, but she left and I have Dr. Eagon! I will call about the Depaul thing. It is really out of the way for me, but will think about it. I tried calling another hospital by me that is doing it, but they wouldn't take already banded patients!!

Hey maybe I will have to go to Columbia or Kansas City for my fills!!! I could use the stay at the hotel as a tax write-off!!! I never did look into that, but will see if I can find that. Good idea!!! My Doctor is a jerk! My parents were amazed sitting there, they were so stunned they didn't even get up to leave. Yes, I did gain about 30 or so pounds, but that is not massive, plus, even if it is, he shouldn't say that! It hurt my feelings!!!!!!!

It posted before I was finished. Anyways I am trying not to think about it too much that I am basically not banded. I have an appointment the end of February. (Remember he is the Dr. that sees Dr. Halpins patients for a fill the 4th Friday of the month from 8:45 - 10:00) He also said when he saw me in the hospital in front of my parents that I am going to have to be very very vigilant after "MY MASSIVE WEIGHT GAIN" after he unfilled me last time. That is so not right on so many different levels for him to say that!!! I miss my other Dr. so much. I know things would be different with her. Oh well, such as life. I have an appointment tomorrow morning to find out if they found out anything from the lung biopsys. I went out this morning and am totally wiped out!! I work tomorrow and Wednesday, and then off a day and work Friday and Saturday! I HAVE A TERRIBLE MESS IN MY CHECKING. I AM NOT SURE HOW MANY CHECKS I BOUNCED, BUT I AM STUCK WITH $105 IN FEES! IT COULD BE WORSE BECAUSE THAT IS ONLY HALF, THE BANK IS EATING THE OTHER HALF. WOULDN'T I PUT THAT MONEY TO BETTER USE PAYING BILLS!!!!!!!!! I REALLY SHOULD HAVE PUT THIS IN THE RANTS SECTION! SORRY!! I hope everyone else has a good day

Did I tell you guys that while I was in the hospital they took out ALL THE FLUID IN THE BAND????

Tracy wilkerson you do not suck!!!!!!!!!!

Pamela, congratulations!!!!!! That is super fantastic!!! I bet that is a HUGE weight off your mind!!!!!

KAT, I read somewhere a month ago or so about Victoria Secret Bras causing rashes. I don't know anything more about it, but are you wearing a Victoria Secret? TERRY, love the video you posted!! Do you have any books you can lend me from him? I am really in debt, and this past week has set me back a lot!!! I am ready!!!!!! Tracyk, I want it to get to you NOW!!!!!!! Oh well, I am awake and sort of moving! Amazing!!!

Slept a lot yesterday. Went to bed at three in the afternoon, and stayed in their til nine this morning. I am so tired. I am sure it is from sleeping too much. Terry I loved the dbah!!!!! Way to go Tracy!!!!!!!!!!! I hope you get my package Tuesday? I feel so bad being late, I am not a late person!! (Except at work!! Then I usually am running behind!!) Alright more sitting and watching tv!!!!!!!!

Susie, yes it is POURING!!!!!!!! Worked for three hours today, felt good, but boy am I beat!! FINALLY I got TracyK secret santa mailed and Lauras little gift. I think you all are doing great with your resolve!! Jane

I am glad to be back, I have not done anything special today, just piddled around. I work for 3 hours tomorrow, my customers, bless their hearts were so glad to come back, it was nice for my spirit to hear them on the phone! I am off for more piddling!!

Hugs Jennifer!!!!

here here!!!

Good morning everyone!! I missed you all so much!!! Laura loved the story about your mother in law going to wake up your husbands brother!!!! Love the pics of Abby Suzie!!!!!!!!! Tracy you and Robbie always take great pics!! My throat is so sore today, not from sick but from that biopsy thing they did on my lungs. They still don't know what is wrong, they are hoping that the biopsies will reveal something. They took all the fluid out of my band!!! They are not taking any chances on anything. I go back to the Dr. Tuesday and hopefully the pathology will be done then. I hope everyone has a great Christmas!!!!!!!!!

Good morning. How is everyone? I am unmotivated and tired, and my tummy hurts a little where they did that biopsy. But, just a little, just enough that I can complain!! I still haven't mailed my ss gift. I hope they get it on time! I am glad I didn't mail it yesterday, because I got something in the mail that I forgot I had ordered for my gift!! Pamela, that is great news on your dissertation!!!!!!! How many chapters do you have left? Are you halfway? That always helps me in a strange way to say I am 1/2 or 2/3 done. Haydee and Terry those are great pictures!!! You both look so happy!!!! I just watched the last survivor last night, I saw the reunion show, so I knew who won, but I didn't see the show. I would have liked to have sugar win, but Bob was a good choice. I DIDN'T LIKE CORRINE OR KENNY!!!!!! Maddy was okay, but Susie???? I didn't have an opinion of her one way or another, but Susie winning survivor? I can't believe she came so close and Sugar didn't get any votes! This season kind of grossed me out because they were so dirty! Okay here I go off to get ready for work!! Have a good day!! Tracyks give your mom a violet hug from me!! They are predicting ice here tomorrow, but judging from the picture Suzie sent, we have nothing like what you have.

just lost long post, so goodnight everyone!!

That recipe for fudge sounds interesting, I think it might be diet friendly if no one eats it!! I think I am done shopping for SS. Will wrap it up and put in the mail tomorrow. I also found a 'special' gift for somebody, and that will also be out in a few days. You know how something just screams someones name, this did it. I am sure you will all see soon. I think I am the only one that can't post a picture. Well I had the aspiration/biopsy today and they said it was very thick and couldn't get it out. They managed to get a little out and culture it. They said sometimes they just let it be, but most of the time they will surgically remove it, and then you have to pack it! Oh My is all I can say. I hope it doesn't come to that. Been there a number of years ago and don't want to go and visit!! I am a mess today!! Speaking of messes, I need to get out of here and go to work!! Have a good one!! How is your mom doint Tracy?? Jane

Haydee, it looks like I got your card back from your birthday in October!! I didn't open it, but the date on the postmark is the 9th of October. I had a p.o. box number on it. I will send it with your christmas card! Be careful when you open it because the birthday card has a lot of money it it! Cold here today, went to casino and won 10.23. Actually with lunch I am in a hole a couple of bucks. Oh well, it was fun, but didn't understand machine I was on. Kept winning every once in a while, so kept at it. Have a good night!! Jane
