OK anyway - go Friday, go Friday! Posting to say that I found a big old error ($26M) today that my old group (work) made. In my old job, we worked like major major hours and got zero respect or kudos. So there's kind of a new management structure and they just made a MAJOR error that again, yours truly found! Yea just had to gloat. It's not nice but it sure is satisfying!

I guess I'm lucky b/c (besides family) I don't get comments on my weight. I do know, however, that I have the rep of not putting up with shit and I hope that continues! O'course I also bust on myself before others have the chance to. My advice is to tell anyone that comments either way about being too big, too small, losing too much weight is that "you can worry about your body as I will worry about mine." Say it with a good passive-aggressive smile and you'll be all good!!! Plus, it's flat out no one else's business what anyone else weighs, tyvm. PS - How the HELL does anyone know if anyone's picture or weight loss is real? That is the dumbest thing I've heard on here. Der.

Ha, that would be funny! I personally haven't dated too weird but one of my gf's went one one date with a guy that had a checklist! One question I remember was: would you vacuum while I was watching football? Huh?!?

Oh shit - that was priceless!!! Aww now, Plainer, don't whine - it so isn't you! AND I'M WITH Y'ALL ON THE FRIDAY CELEBRATIONS!!!!!

Discovery Health - there were 3 episodes on last night back to back. I put it in my Tivo so I don't have to remember! I love Tivo SO much.

Ha! No kidding. Good thing he lives out in eastern BFE, Texas!

<shaking head> Such a bad influence!!! And um she has taken the offer yet. We'll be friends either way, you sillies!

Aww, no problem and you're welcome! re: steps - each surgeon is different. I went to the seminar and then made an appointment w/ my surgeon. At that appointment, they gave me a packet of information that included a checklist of sorts. I've completed the following: - psychologist - nutrition class - pulmonologist - PCP (incl. my TSH levels b/c I have thyroid disease) I also provided a 5 year weight history. Oddly enough, my surgeon's office sent off my packet today!!! WAHOO! I haven't been successful regarding tickers and photos in my signature so unfortunately you're on your own with that one! Good luck!

LOL!!! Now there's an idea I hadn't thought of!

Posting to say: One of my bestest friends at work just got an offer with another company. :-( Waahhhhh

So for today's topic: Did anyone watch "Big Medicine" last night? There were 2 episodes of cutting off the excess skin. One woman - it was SO major. Whew

Plain - you are so wrong!!! Oh but I definitely must admit I laughed pretty dog gone hard!

OMG you weren't being dramatic; you were being serious. That's very scary. :tongue_smilie: What kind of store is open at the butt crack of dawn like that?

And lord knows, YOU would know!!! :biggrin: Seriously, I've known him for almost 6 years and we've always just been like siblings. He's married with 2 young children. I'm not going thru all this to share a man. OH HELL TO THE NO! (O'course I'm too selfish to have shared a man ever!) <snap> <pointing at Plain> Now you behave!

Sorry Frogster - I'm lucky to have a more lenient insurance provider methinks. I just watched 2 episodes of "Big Medicine" and am pumped again (after my brief chicken shit episode from Sunday)!!! I went to dinner w/ my triathalon friend and of course I was hot in the tight restaurant booth and she had to bring a sweater not to freeze. Frustrating! So many reasons why I'm SO ready! And what's the last and most fun-nest to me? To prance around around at work in front of the staring Stalker. <insert evil laugh>

Why? Did Plain sneak off and have DS surgery? P.U.! OK seriously, I really am going to bed now. Y'all are such bad influences!

I am SO not skeered of you!!! :biggrin:

Ugh, forgot to say that I got a very sweet email from my boss today (after I'd updated him on my progress). He said that if I needed anything after my surgery to make sure to call him. Aww! (No, Plain, you perv....not that! He's like a brother to me! Skinny as my real brother too; the bastards!)

Posting to change the subject to ME. Yeah my PCP/GP sent my letter to the surgeon's office. The surgeon's office should be submitting my paperwork to insurance tomorrow or Friday. WOOHOO; doing happy dance! :thumbup: Go SickN, go SickN, it's yer birthday....... Oh and very late LOL on the Kool-Aid "Oh yeah" (Plain) Come to think of it, I'd like to give a nice hawaiian punch tho..... :biggrin: Ahem, to the Stalker of course. Yea, that's it!

Yanno, kids - I need to find a psychologist b/c I would like to know why people have to whine about shit they hate. Ya don't like a commercial - don't watch it and/or don't buy their product/service. If you don't like the theme of a movie/book - DON'T WATCH/READ IT. You don't like our poking fun of the rude bastards that can't let it alone and let people have whatever WLS they want? Then perhaps another thread is for you. Truly, it's very simple. You two may PM or you may begin your own sanctimonious, self-righteous threads. Honestly, let it GOOOOO.

Irene - are you suggesting that I am bashing?!? Well I never! :Banane37: I'm not bashing all men; just one!!! Caught him staring today and I want credit for having not flipped him off!

He passed away last weekend (Saturday maybe?). Since I'm almost 42, 50 seems way too young. Plain could definitely speak to this more but I just don't think about people dying of pneumonia anymore. Just awful.

heyyyyy no busting on my friend! LJM - I just didn't re-o-lize that we were changing dialects. I'm all 'bout that! Nyuk nyuk nyuk

Which is why we're 2 peas in a pod, toots! :whatchutalkingabout

Turler - I have wondered for quite some time what your avatar is! LJM: moider?
