He got steriods - antibotics - creams - got home around 3ish - cooked dinner - When I got home Kaitlin & her gf where in my bathroom getting pretty for what I don't know - but it was bugging me they just took over my bath room (i am so glad I had boys they don't get in your stuff) so I ended up kicking them out - then Had to tell her how come you didn't take out trash or make the couches back up after they had slept there - My house was clean friday nite (andrew came during the day) - now it's a mess - I love my kids - but hell I just saw them 2 weeks ago..

    Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!

    Good Evening Gang.. Karla - some days you are just hungry - I ate a grill cheese for lunch - I don't need a fill (rye bread - havarti cheese) I was full - but I ate it w/no problem.. Now that you can get out and walk that's going to help - No saying you don't need a fill - but be very careful cuz it seems like the last 2 had to be removed - also - DON'T BUY THE CRAP !!! That's where you have to exercise your control - if it's not in the house you can't eat it.. That's what I do - I exercise control in the grocery store so I don't have to rely on will power when I am home - cuz at home i have NONE... Linda - Glad you got to see Candice it's good for your soul.. There are still houses here for sale !!! one like mine for $171,000 (no pool) but you can always use mine ;0) Karri - How are you feeling today Phyl - where in the heck are you - have you had your bond scan - how's Jackie Candice On the road again - how long till you get home Well my heckit day - Joseph is suppose to come to take bmw back to MIL cuz she doesn't wnt it in her name anymore (her dh is behind this) the kids can't refi it cuz it has $100k - they have tried to sell it but haven't been able to - plus it's in MIL so kind of hard and they are upside down too - so they are taking car back to her and she can sell it.. Anyway - figured they would be here around 10ish - got call @ 5 that they weren't comming cuz guy who was going to help drive (joseph doesn't have a license) flaked and they are going to rent car to go back home and Kaitlin can't drive a rent a car - so this is after I spent $150 at the store for weekend food for them - food I don't eat - so then I was pissed - well then they call - I guess when Melissa gets off work at 7ish they will hit the road - so that means they wont be here till 2 a.m ish ... I have boot camp at 8 a.m. OMG - I hate this kind of crap - plus I am babysitting Andrews dog till he gets off work - poor thing has to stay outside cuz she and the cat aren't freinds lol... So she got some ck w/her dog food tonite ;0).. Well that' s about it for me All our schools are talking lay offs - police (riverside county sheriff - including our whole county) is talking about having to lay off 500 pple.. I really don't understand why now that when things are suppose to be looking up - there are more lay offs.. I guess it's all about the pension ?? Calpers that these pple are getting - got email from boss today saying that there are alot of pple in calpers getting $100k plus a year in their pension $12000 a month retirement - these are higher ups - but omg they are collecting the bucks - where as I will get like $1700 a month from SS when I'm 62 or maybe 65..

    Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!

    Good Evening Gang I can't freaking figure out how to down load my pic's like I use to with this new computer - I think I did it - it's diff than before - will ck after I post - Candice - What else do I need to see the doc about - what else are they going to ck - had ekg - it's fine - Had blood work - it's find - had mamo it's fine - blood pressure fine - what else are they going to do in a physical - I haven't I had one.. I have appointment 5/27 w/new doc - made it when I wasn't feeling good - will most likely keep it - but really don't know what else a doc can do to ck me out - except a complete mri/cat scan of my body and that's not covered by insurance - there has to be a problem for a cat scan and hell they cost tons of $$$ - I gotta pay 35% after insurance pays.. So you are going to go see Linda and go to her retirement party - glad to hear that Want first hand knowlegde of how our Linda is doing - Just cuz you are traveling doesn't mean you have to go hog wild w/your eating - even on vacation - I may have a little more sugar than I do at home - but I don't go hog wild - I really have made this a lifestyle change - so I'm not dieting and I'm not worrying about my weight 24/7 - gotta say my plan has worked for me - I'm almost 4 yrs out and gotta say that I haven't really had a problem maintaining my weight for the last 3 yrs.. Karla - 100 yr flood zone means that 100 yrs may have a flood - I don't write much of it anymore since I do commercial lines not personal - so if your agent says you can't you can't - You will be fine Glad you were able to get out and walk !!! Karri - Glad you are sleepimg I remember when you couldn't - so that's good - it's good for healing - I know you said a long time ago you might end up in AZ - sound like you just may ;0) Melissa (dil) got her surgery date 7/11 !!!! Sleeve - so if Debbie will come and watch the dogs I will go up there for a day or 2 when she has surgery.. I may ask Andrew too - Jospeh's 40th bday is 7/15

    I'm here to help...

    Hi Lori & Jennifer This is how I did it .... (during my weight loss phase) I kept a food diary - I counted calories & Protein I weighed and measured my food until I knew what 1/4 - 1/2 - 1 cup looked likeand what 4 oz of meat looks like I kept my calories between 800 - 1200 and varied them daily - I ate low fat -sugar free - and did/do allow some starches - I am a weight watcher girl and Ithink they have the most balanced eat plan out their - I could never live onAdkins - I have to have some starch.. I exercised 4-5 days a week (usually 5) my walking on a treadmill - startedslow and every couple weeks increased my speed and mileage at 8 months out Igot a trainer and started working weights (I had lost 77 by then) During this time I did allow treats - If I went to a bday party I had 1 pieceof cake - during Christmas I bake xmas Cookies w/granddaughters - its atradition - I made a trade off with myself - I didn't eat the sweets that wereat work during the holiday - and allowed myself some xmas cookies w/my grandkids - and I made sure I went to the gym .. For me having major fricking surgery was an ah ha moment - I was/am verydedicated to eating healthy- I never dieted then or now - this is truly alifestyle change in our eating (we always heard that phrase anytime we went ona diet - but we don't truly understand what they are saying) - Always beforeafter we lost the weight - we would go back to eating "normal" andwhat happen - we gained our weight back - we didn't understand that our eatingnormal is what got us fat in the 1st place.. I was lucky to get to my sweet spot very fast - I have had 1 fills the last onein 1/09. I can tell you that with the band - it's a diff full - I can be physically fulland still want to eat more food - and you can - you can eat around your bandwith foods that we call sliders - candy - cookies - ice cream - chips - mashedpotatoes - adult beverage ;0) they all slip right thru the band no matter howtight you are - this is eating around your band - I also don't keep foods in the house that are my weakness - would you leave abottle of booze on the kitchen counter if you were an alcoholic and trying toquit drinking - Well it's the same thing with us and food - We are food addictsit's our drug of choice. So if I want a cookie - I go and buy just one - if I have made a cake forsomeones bday - I make them take it with them or I throw it out (better in thee(the trash) than in me). I have had a weak moment bought a pint ofice cream - eaten half and thrown the other half in the trash.. I struggle at time - ya I miss pigging out - Iwant to eat unlimited amounts of candy and not worry that I will gain weight -I don't want to go to the gym and exercise some days - but I now KNOW that if Ieat a bag of candy - sit on my butt 24/7 - I will be right back to 250 and Idon't want that.. Hope you have a little insight to what band is going to be like (btw - i caneat almost anything - I can have a sandwich on lite sandwich bread - I can eata taco) oh ya - band rules - eat slowly - chew - small bite and no drinking with meals- my doc allows us to drink 30 mintues after we have eaten.. Hope this has help.. Wishing you the very best on your jounery - keep me posted ok..<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;"><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;">

    Good Evening Gang Well you all know my blood test came back EXCELLENt - cholestoral very good - vitimans just fine - nothing wrong with my blood - just old age I guess Phyl - I would suggest taking nasid on empty stomach - then eat so that it doesn't sit in your pouch - I take advil occassionally - but I will only take it on empty stomach - I don't have stomach issues never have - but I think I test my band enough am afraid to push the limits too far.
