Good Morning Gang I went grocery shopping after work and had a major headache when I got home - didn't feel like posting ;0)... So watched t.v. instead.. Candice - I took a pic once to show someone on my other thread what a plate should look like - it looked huge !!! and I too eat off dessert/sandwich plates :0) That pic of mash taters made me hungry for them - I rarely eat them - but had some last nite w/my bbq chicken ;0) 1/2 cup - I rarely measure cuz the bowls I use are 1 cup bowls. I think it will take time to a adjust to a new person ;0) - you sign softly - so boost you voice or turn up the mic ;0) - It will be ok and some days we just don't feel like being nice ;0)... Karla - Ya if he cried about simon he can't be all bad.. Truly my heart was hurting for simon - our animals are our babies... Phyl was busy yesterday - with red hats and marine band - she should be posting today... gosh it's 5:30 already - where does the time go.. I figured dinner for sunday - Chicken Cacatorrie ;l)

Charlene - Glad your friend is doing better - yep sure hope she wakes up to her health issues - I know pple who think they are weak if the go on meds.. Some pple rather be misable than happy..

Rest - Glad you got out of the house !!!! Praying for Simon - This has been bugging me all day.. I am worried about your doggie - well really DD doggie - but you had him and use to talk about him ;0) No one is going to yell - but you do need your nutrtion to heal ;0) - go rest

l clicked to save pic and got it smaller - meal looks very good - but gotta say the pic makes it look like a cup of taters and 1/2 c gravy ;0) but I know pic's can be deceiving - are you measuring your food or weigh it ??

BEAUTIFUL !!!!!! JUST LIKE HER MAMA ;0) !!

What is it - when you click on the pic it's too big to see - looks fattening though :0) Karal - How's simon --- Hugs

Great - I don't know if my DIL can follow the rules - she made a coment to me when I said a bander gain her weight back "how" that right there tells me she thinks it will do the work.. Sleeve seems to be the new wls of the moment - don't know if insurance is covering it. Also - I don't know if she would get in the exercise mode - she's a nurse works a lot of ot - and after 12 hrs on my feet - I don't know how much I would want to exercise either - but really it doesn't matter which surgery she has - if she doesn't get it mentally - then none of them are going to work.. I don't know if she's really there yet.. I think the dumping (getting sick) when eating sugar food (which would incl starches) would be a good deterrant --- Surivor - Nanako - she is so freaking stupid - I disliked her w/a passion she was so crude and rude - she should have been kicked off - I don't think either of those girls should be on the jury - I taped last night haven't watched it yet.. back to work

Oh Karla - My heart is breaking about Simon - Jackies doing great and so is Courtney (124) I guess she had a rough go of it for a while - but is doing great right ow ... Candice Bella jumped up to give me kisses - little teeth nicked me - it hurt :0) - LOL - I can't wait to tell Andrew that he has 3 50+ women who want to marry hime :0) - lol - I have never eaten at cold stone - but guess will have to try it :0) Hugs - Karla - Hugs - my heart is breaking to think of him hurt - hope it turns out ok.. Too much snow.... gotta get back to work ;0)

Linda - I know half my hunger is in my head 95% of the time.. As long as I am busy I can ignore it - its when I'm home watching t.v. or reading that's when it strikes - or frustrated at work - I just make sure I don't have anything dangerous around to eat - Charlene :0) - I could be a diet/nutrintionest - I have really found that limited the starches works - and if you really think about it - our bodies weren't made to eat all that junk -I really look at what our bodies were designed to eat - Protein & veggies are what the 1st pple really ate - all this processed food is what has made us fat.. On WW I always saved by starches for dinner - cuz on the exchange system you had like only 3 starch exhanges - and that's how I have eaten for the last 3.5 yrs now - I have a starch most days - but if I need to get so lbs off - meat and Veggies - Today was weigh in day 136.5 - WTG Janet - this is after having treats in Mx - but when I got home - stuck to most meat/fish & veggies for the last few days and my scale reflexed the getting back to eating healthy.. I didn't care for the pt system - but again just like this new format here on LBT - you just gotta get use to change - at least I can multi quoate again !!! Found topic - so that I can get back here a little easier - but still missing the subscriped threads.. Well gotta get back to work - just a quick ck in -

Good Morning Gang... Laura - How funny I just to be super handy - fixing stuff around the house - but then got w/dh and let him take over ;0) and now even though we aren't together - I just got out of being handy... Yep when you don't have to do it - and have one else - save your brain cells for something else ;0) Charlene - What do you mean it's not working for you - you just started - did you think you were going to lose 10 lbs in 2 days LOL - Hugs on your friend - Hopefully she's learned that she has to take care of herself.. Meredith You are one busy girl... How's the tummy doing - Well not much to report since last night - had dinner - watched my soap (amc) - went to bed - fell asleep then Andrew calls at 10:30 p..m. ask if I am asleep it's only 10:30 - well yes little boy I get up early - but he was excited to tell me about his 2nd day on his 2nd pt job - Cold Stone Ice Cream... So chatted for about 2 minutes :0) Well just popping in to say Good Morning - Time to hit the shower.. Hugs

Good Morning... Candice you are up VERY early this morning ;0) Dogs had me up at 4;30 but went back to bed but never got to go back to sleep.. OK I will do cross country - as long as it's like gliding ;0) no snow shoes :0) I would look like nanook of the north - all bundled up LOL Not much to report - ate 2 shrimp tempura's (costco) I can't eat very much of them they fill me up really fast - only a couple bites of spinach - but had my 100 cal snack pack of popcorn - wasn't hungry just munchies - and slept well - till Andrew called at 10:30 to tell me his 2nd day at his 2nd part time job (cold stone ice cream shop) was better than the 1st - told me about all these great ice creams - will have to go there on one of my treat days and have him fix me one.. Phyl - Have fun today - don't over do it ;0) but enjoy - Looks like we are going to have good weather on Sunday ;0) Karla how are you this morning - feeling a little better ...

Hugs Hugs Hugs Hugs Karla - take your meds - have a good cry and get some sleep - Hope your proplaspe doc finds you another doctor... He's (the one you went to) is a Freaking AH... Candice - I sent her a message on FB - Just want to make sure she' ok - I know last time she posted that she was having more tummy issues - Phyl's about 1/2 hr from me - not that far :0) and that's driving just a little over the speed limit - not 100 mph LOL ;0) Oh I am glad to know I 'm not the only one who has to do it - Bear & Angel are pretty well trained but Bella isn't at all ;0) Candice - I would have to buy a whole wardrobe - I have nothing warm enough for the snow - don't know about cross country skiing - but would like the sledding OMG I AM POOPED JUST READING WHAT YOU HAVE ON YOUR PLATE TOMORROW ;0) Well as you can see I got multi to work - hit multi then add reply at the bottom - not like the old way where you hit reply on last persons post.. Ok will make greek yogurt - cheese cake dessert - it's easy - will get some gram crackers too ;0) I will figure something out for dinner - Well had gym tonite arms - came home and unloaded dishwasher and picked up the kitchen - talked w/Jackie on FB - she's doing great 132 lbs !!!! Looks really good - got that divorce.. Well it's 8 - having tempura shrimp (baked) spinach - need to go watch my soap - it's been really good for the last few weeks Hugs & Love Janet

Linda - Glad you got the computer fixed - I think I need a new one sometimes - mines' 6 yr old window xp (I think) It takes forever to load .. But don't want to go spend $600 for tower only - so I just plug along - Thanks - I forget how hard it was for me to do stuff when I was morbidly obese ;0) - Melissa (dil) is suppose to get wls - She was going for band but 1st of the yr her insurance is changing so she doesn't know what she's going to do - I told her that with the amount of weight that she has to lose - I would go sleeve or bypass - She's close to 300 I think - and a big starch eater - and she likes her candy too.. You can see in Brooke how their bad eating habits are affecting her - I have let go about that - I harped alot this summer about it - they are killing Brooke - Even though Kaitlin is thin (she and I are about the same size/weight) she is also a big starch/cheese eater - but she's getting a little better - but she's out of shape - may be thin but not really healthy.. I talk all the time about eating healthy - but that's all I can do until they are ready to change their ways.. Cheri - You are amazing !!!! Charlene - I like the label nasal fold diff is the best (the lines between the nose and the mouth) - my eyes well instead of bags - they are a little puffy - like I am retaining Water - I think I may need a little more on the bottom of the bag - going to call this week... No one has really noticed except one girl at work said I looked rested and Idrise tonite commented that my eyes looked a little puffy - but not as wrinkled - Over all I like it -

Drive by - I can change fonts - but multi doesn't work ... I hate that the most... Laura - Sure glad your family is coming for Xmas - You know what I was just thinking that your Present is that your Dad is still w/you a yr after being diagnosed w/cancer - Grab every moment you can and enjoy ;0) the time you have - live in the moment - not the past or the future but in the now ;0) - Love the pic of Nel w/Santa - too freaking cute - Norman Rockwell moment ;0) Don't worry about the cards - don't know if I will have time to get them out before Xmas myself - I have addresses - but this yr I'm not really doing Christmas - since it's me and the dogs - just don't feel like it's worth all the trouble to decorate :0) Christmas is 2 weeks from Saturday !!! So Maybe will look for Cards this weekend I'm having company on Sunday - Phyl & Earl & Zoey - Zoey has a play date w/Bella :0) Joyce - How did exercise go - you should have stayed home - yes this comming from the queen of exercise - but you are exposing others to your sickness... And I think it's not good to exercise if you are sick - you need to use energy to get well ;0) - Hope it went well - but take care of you !!! Great - Glad your DD is going to be able to stay and visit - I was craving red meat last night - must need the Iron ;0) I think you can go to almost any restaurant now a days and order hamburger w/o a bun ;0) Mine was nice and thick - but wasn't as red as I wanted - I am a true carnivor - really a canibal ;0) (don't think spell ck works on my work computer -- don't see any red lines ;0) Eva - You are so right about getting old not for whimps ;0) - becare with that acid you can burn yourself - take it off slowly - use corn removal system .. My heals get bad in the summer and when they use that stuff at the salon - it just makes them get thicker calluses - I use my pedi egg the most.. Kelly - I got thur kicks too - eat the same stuff then switch up - had cobb salad for lunch today Well gotta get back to work - cbl

I hate it too !!!! I was reading somewhere - that if you go to you browers options you can do ad blocker and they say all the ads are going - I don't get pop ups - just the dumb ads on the side that - I don't pay no mind too .. All that snow is why I don't live in Canada as much as I loved it 2 summers ago... Hell no - thats too much freaking snow to live in - nice for a weekend visit - as long as the house is stocked and you got some good books - electricity and a fire place ;0) - but to live in it - Nope - I'll take my 120 summer days over that snow any old day ;0) Yep I agree about all the candy out there - Lunch room here has candy cookies galorie in it - but I have made a pledge to myself not to indugle - I don't need the junk - it just makes me want more - and you know what I really got say that most of the time - it doesn't taste as good as I remember it tasting when I was pre-banded - Don't get me wrong - somethings still do taste as good - and as we all know those are slider - but what happens when we eat them we gain weight - do we really want to do that - I thought we all got banded I will be back they are taking the computer dowen

New site - sucks !!! I miss my subscriped threads ;0) Karen - I forget are you newly banded or did you just get a fill - You sound as if you are too tight - Remember eat slowly - chew super well - tiny bite.. Let us know how your appt went..

I'm a big Weight Watcher fan - imho it's the most well rounded healthy eating plan out there - you get your fat/starches/protein/dairy/veggies & fruit ..

Phyl - You are making the effort to go - Maybe someone needs to get a new machine ;0) they do wear out Ok Sunday - It's a date... You got any request for a menu - something you love but never get at home w/Earl ) Angel & Bear have learned not to run out when I am pulling the car in the garage - but Bella - nope she comes running and cuz she's running to me - Angel - comes too - Angel doesn't like it when I give either Bear or Bella attention When I leave in the mornings I have to pull out the car - then come back in and go out the front door as Bella will follow out the doggie door - so leaving my house is a pain in the butt and coming home too - they are so little I can't see them an am afaird of running them over.. I would just die.. Ok gotta get back to it (work) ;0) CBL

Karla Since I only had one kid - I was always afraid of that - (having Favorite) Since Andrew is more like my Son than GS - But I do love him differently than the Girls - and I think it may show sometimes - but again I think Kaitlin understands (I hope) that I consider him my DS - Brooke is to little to understand - I know Joseph is jealous of me & Andrew.. I think we all love the pple in our lives a little differently - I have more than one BFF - Each has a diff quality that I like about them - we love them but they all have diff traits that we are drawn to - and in some cases - we just suck it up and love them even when we don't like them most of the time lol... Glad you are ok - Yep keep us posted on Dr Visit..

Good Morning Gang Thankfully I have a short week ;0).... Gym again tonite.. Phyl - How about Sunday since then we can have day light ;0) and sit on the patio - gotta warn you - house is decorated for Xmas - Don't know if it will this year.. Sunday ... What time around 2 ish so that we can visit and we will eat around 5 Karla - where are you... Candice - What are your plans today.... I'm constipated ;0) tmi - not drinking enough water - plan today - drink water !!!!

Good Morning Gang... Eva - Love the card idea again - I think our list is pretty updated - We might not have Kelly & Chris's info. Kelly & Chris email your address info to Julie.. I keep forgetting about Christmas - haven't decorated doubt I will - was just so busy getting ready and going on vacation - and since the kids aren't coming home - doubt I even pull out any decoration this yr - all that work for 2 weeks - who knows maybe I'll change my mind. Well not much to report - hamburger patty and spinach for dinner - bed and now it's time to start all over.. Work wasn't bad yesterday - wasn't that hard to get in the groove again Sandy isn't it funny that we do become our mothers ;0) or at least repeat some of their sayings ;0)

Good Evening Gang.... It's taken me forever to get on tonite - keyboard didn't want to work had to reboot - just a pain in the butt - and I still am not liking this new format - Under foxfire I can't change fonts - but if i use google chrome I can.. Go figure.. Well its 8 and I need to go cook - made it thru boot camp ;0) Sorry about the drive by - Hugs Cheri - Charlene - sound like WW has gotten better - Eva - you are a good wife ;0) - Great - I like my veggies - and 99 % of the time eat them not so good on fruit especially in the winter - I like summer fruits ;0)

I hate this new format !!!! Sometimes w/foxfire - I can't change fonts - but if I sign in under google chrome I can.. Then my key board didn't want to work - so had to reboot - hell its 7:39 ... Candice - I figured most musicians had a few while playing ;0) but you do need someone reliable Phyl - Hell you are retired and still not enough hours in the day to do all that you want to do :0) I was thinking about when I could have you and Earl over for dinner - Whats your schedule for either this weekend or next - or will we have to wait until after Christmas.. Angel won't play - she's the queen of the house - Bear well if he's in the mood - Bella well she will be all over Zoey wanting to play.. I had Andrew dogs the other nite and Bella wanted to play - but they are just to big for her - I am afraid that they will hurt her w/o meaning too.. Has anyone talked to Karla today??? I am worried we haven't heard from her - Candice have you talked to Linda.. Well bootcamp was tough - I am going to have to make appointment about my hip it's bugging me after exercise - will talk to Idrise about it tomorrow..

Jodi - Sorry you are sick too - yep being sick can do it to your band - I don't think i have been sick since banding - maybe a cold but nothing big - got my flu shot back in Sept.. Have fun on your girls weekend - What did you get for Chanucka ;o) the Girls weekend ;o) Cheri - I know how frustrating it is to lose a post :0) - Hope you are doing ok.. Well back at it - hasn't been a bad day - but have boot camp tonite - not looking forward to it ;0)

Well quick ck in from work - not to bad - but brain still kind of foggy ;0) Yep Candice - shower makeup even if it's just to quilt ;0) Phyl - Hope you make it thru exercise - becareful not to over do it - put a basket in the golf cart and zoey will think she's in the scooter ;0) Karla - Hope you are ok... I guess we are going to have to hunt down Linda ;0) back to work - cbl
