    i replied to your post, but didn't mean to insinuate my whole post directly to you. but what "if" someone thinks obama can rescue them from poverty or view him as a hero??? how does that really impact those who oppose or think differently? they get to vote too.

    quick share, DH and i were at a dinner party sat night...predominantly republican - actually there were only 2 liberals in a 6 couple party. all are voting for obama, they don't see him as a messiah - but a hope for healing and leadership. the age range was 60-27, jews/catholics/muslims/christians, all professionals - i was happily shocked. i've been a bit annoyed with the multitude of posts that suggest those voting for obama are unintelligent.....that in of itself is ignorant...
  5. had been thinking of you renewed. saw your post on another thread & knew you were going to be up & running - well not literally. take care of yourself - "running" and us cheering you on will be there when you return!!! happy healing!!!

    LOL :w00t: - but ya know; he voted for obama:biggrin: mccain made it very easy for him; but he still thinks mccain was better suited for the dem ticket...whole other story.

    they WERE RIGHT!!!!:w00t: clusk - i was in high tech sales for 15yrs and literally lived in san jose, CA....hubby still part of that scene and they're right now... i wonder who is stealing my obama/biden sign at the front of my ranch each night.???. even with cameras on them, idiot mccain supporters i suppose / radical right wingers??? hmmmmm can't keep a good dem down - new sign goes back up before dawn each day...i'm tempted to let the dogs run loose tonight....:w00t:
  8. oh if it only kept the gurgglin' of the tummy & trips to the loo at bay. i have never gotten a flu shot & never will. hadn't been sick in yrs....this has really put me out & the anti naseau meds have held back any puking thankfully, but can say the same on the reverse end....:w00t:

    Is there a mushy thread

    i try to make my own hummus (can get more Protein that way) but will buy also. i would mix a table spoon in my tuna salad / cottage cheese to make it creamier. once i got to solids i added fresh veggies w/the hummus. hubby likes to make pizza w/a whole wheat wrap, add hummus & feta cheese w/olives & pepercinis.. i usually make it because we go thru a LOT of it....spreads for sandwhichs..etc.

  14. lapbandgirl - love your avtr... i was told a LONG time a go, when you least expect it, the person of your dreams will enter your life....you have to be in receiving mode, to acknowledge it. i think new social groups is a great way to get yourself out there as YOU want others to see you; your current social situation - may not be willing to adjust to the new you. not a bad thing; just an evolution of a lot of friendships whether WLS is involved or not...just happens. get out there!!!!
  15. ohhhh to add some humor in it all - cause there is just a few days left.., this dem (already voted) thought this was cute:

    Is there a mushy thread

    i would take a box of frozen spinach (thaw, drained well) 1 container (15oz) lf ricotta 1 egg 2 cups of parmesan or romano cheese salt/peper tsp of tyme or basil i would mix all together except for 3/4c of parm cheese, put in a baking dish - then top w/remaining cheese. bake 350 till golden brown or bubbly. you can make many variations of this depending on your tastes; can add some marinara / pureed veggies (eggplant/zuchhini). it's pretty easy & good source of Protein and easy to get down.

    that sux! it's the hardest part i think of this whole process. waiting for restriction, i swore i would be the one who never got it. took 5 fills before i felt like i did after surgery - by fill #8 i realized restriction. it was frustrating, especially watching hubby having restriction after 3 fills, and i was eating more than him.....and he's 6'3, and was 280 at the time.... maybe sip on a protein drink, not just liquids in between???
  24. suzanneg - your almost there!!!! at 5'1 & 200lbs, i was a 16 bottom and XL top...however it seemed like it took a LONG time before i started to drop sizes. now a yr out i'm a size medium top & size 4 or 6 on bottom (depending on type/brand). i agree w/all here - go try on clothes!!! even if you don't buy something; congrats all w/the weightloss!!!!

    I walked into the gym! (long)

    littlefroggy - your story sounds a bit familiar. DH and i had our gym membership the whole time while we were gaining weight. paid the monthly fees - but didn't put one step in for 4+yrs. i also waited 3 months after banding before i called our 24hr fitness to see if our membership was still "valid"....while i was just walking my neighborhood - when i could have just started in the gym right away... congrats on walking into the gym and working out!!!
