Thanks Roxanne :thankyou: So, today was back to "day 1" of the workout routine. LEGS! I only did 2 sets of each, instead of the 3 I'll work up to. I'm hoping that being smart and stretching afterwards just might eliminate the same kind of pain I had last week. Cross your fingers for me! I'm having crazy thoughts... like going out and buying 5lb weights, and even one of those exercise balls!!! :omg: So many of the exercises I do there, I could easily do at home. Maybe on my off days... that might be a good idea. While I'm watching tv or something. Hmmm... we'll see.

Oh yeah, Khrissy... you're going with the TLBC... nevermind! You must have already had your consult, if your surgery is Nov 30? You need to start a "Khrissy's Kanadian Koolness" thread for yourself! I would say... don't forget... hmm... how far away are you coming from? I didn't NEED anything... lots of people say to bring a hot Water bottle, or heating pad. I didn't need that. I survived without it. If you're staying in a hotel, make sure you have some comfy clothes to lounge around in (and same even if you're going right home).. nothing too tight that might rub your incisions.

Do you have to GO there for your consultation? Wheezy, you're pretty far away, you had to go for the consult? I had mine done by phone.

haha, yeah, exactly! Maybe it's good to know in some situations that you might want to eat a little more than normal, that having a couple drinks beforehand will make that happen.... but then again, you could drink TOO much, eat too much, and then try pb-ing drunk! Doubt that's much fun!

Yeah, that's a good idea... especially slowcooker chicken! Let us know if that does the trick!

ahhhh.... sounds nice! Can I come with you next time? Don't worry, you didn't miss too much!

awww... that's not good. Probably a good idea though :thankyou:

Dawn, good job! I'm not sure about the ticker... how come one works and the other doesn't?!

Why isn't he doing fills anymore? Are you gonna post the name of this new Winnipeg Dr, or is it a secret? :thankyou:

remember... BMI, not ibm! :thankyou:

Thanks Dawn... I checked it out. They have some nice stuff. I will keep them in mind next time I am in need of bras! Yoda, ME TOO! All I got was a tshirt.... another one! This one is Large. Of course it's a girls/ladies large, which means it's freakin' SMALL! (american apparel... bah! Their XL (womens) isn't even as big as a mens small! So off to the back of the closet with the rest of my 'inspiration' clothes! Cloe, thank you, thank you! I'm excited for you gettin' your fill tomorrow! Make sure you don't let them give you too much! Let us know how it goes. The unjury thing... I think that was when I'd just gotten my last fill and wasn't eating much of anything. Right now, if I was to do protein shakes, I'd probably just have them if I was really hungry in the morning, which I'm usually not, and I can't eat much/or anything in the morning anyway.

Splenda isn't the same as something like 'Sweet N Low', for example... maybe that stuff has 14cal/4carbs. But I'd go by what the splenda bag tells you. Fitday doesn't have an option to enter a 'custom' food, if they don't have splenda in their system?

Yes I did get the Unjury! I only have tried the chocolate so far, but it was good. Not Slim-fast tasting at all, so I was very happy. I'm trying not to do shakes... but I probably should. I'm PROBABLY just trying to be cheap and not spend the money! I should ask for some Unjury for Xmas! I have some unflavoured to try yet, and that's the one I was most curious about. So I'm back from the party. It was pretty fun. We did get 'swag', and I think THAT was the surprise. It's 12:30 and I'm home, but that's ok. The last thing I want is to be hungover again anytime soon. I just wasn't feelin' it tonight... my Caesar's were not very good, and now my stomach hurts. They had lots of food... what they brought out first was 99% deep fried stuff! Mushrooms, zucchini, fries, wings, and nachos. I had a little of all that stuff, except the fries. Went down fine... I think after I've had a couple drinks, I can eat waaaay too easily. THEN they bring out a veggie tray, a meat tray, and a cheese tray! That's what I REALLY would have liked! Oh yeah, our house guest is gone as of TODAY!!! He's coming tomorrow to move the last of his boxes, and that's that. He's staying with another friend of ours for the next week, then going to stay with his girlfriend for a couple weeks, and then finally moving to Ottawa. How nice it is to not come home to someone else! To not have to shut the bathroom door.... to walk to the bathroom in the middle of the night in whatever you happen to be wearing.... not having him using all my A1 sauce... not not being able to get online cause he's downloading another season of the office.... ahhhhh....

Hey addylawson! I'm from SK, but I moved away a couple months ago! Whereabouts are you from? Buffie was getting her family Dr. in Saskatoon to do her fills. I'm not sure how that's going, cause she hasn't posted in FOREVER ! Buffie, POST! You can also go to Calgary. Who's doing your surgery?

I don't know... I don't know what kind of programs you have on your computer. If you have any kind of photo or photo editing software, there should be a resize option... but I'm not sure :straight

Hey neenagh, I resized it so poor Cloe may actually be able to see it! LOL

That is toooooo cute!!

You are very welcome :hug:

Ok, so... today I woke up early (10!), to bring my car to Canadian Tire, to get my birthday present, 2 snow tires from my parents, installed. Dropped off the car, then walked over to Pennington's. I was just gonna try stuff on and see where I'm at. I grabbed a couple bras, and 2 pairs of jeans... size SIXTEEN and 18. Tried the bras on first... weren't quite right, so the lady went looking for different sizes for me. I then tried on the jeans. I tried the 16 first. Started sliding on one leg, and was like "Uh oh.. waaaay too tight", pulled them up, and they WENT up! Apparently they are those skinny legged jeans (so, if you're lookin' for those, they have 'em at Penningtons). BUT, they did up, and they fit... I mean fit. They are actually jeans that I would buy, and think "These fit!". I tried the 18's on, and they were good too, a little more 'comfy', but the other ones fit better. Wow... I blew my mind again. I really should have grabbed every other 16 they had in the building, and tried them just to see. But, I'm happy thinking I could wear a 16, and I'm not buying any pants anytime soon, so hopefully by the time I do buy some pants, ANY 16 would fit me. Woo. So I did buy the 2 bras. I hate doing it, cause I just got some a couple months ago. The last ones, I thought were good... and now, just aren't very good anymore. I feel so flat... or saggy. I never have had bras that keep my boobs up HIGH, where they should be. My last ones did, for a while... now, not so much. They new ones today... they're good, for now. We're having a party tonight. Work, I mean. Our boss rented an entire bar! Like, one of the 'big' bars in town, is ALL ours tonight. It's a wrap party for this show they just finished. A guy from work, his band is going to play, and our bosses' comedian friend from NY, who's also a writer for us, is going to do his act. It's just everyone from work, their guests, and the animation students from the college here in town. Apparently there's a 'surprise' of some sort, for us. Eee! This is the 2nd wrap party we've had for the show... the first one was for when animation was finished, but this is a FINAL final 'we're finished' party. Last time, they had a big box of tshirts from the producers of the show, and everyone go to sift through and grab some. I actually got 3! All too small... so they're hanging in my closet. I'm thinking that's what the surprise is... more 'swag'. We'll see though. So I'm getting all snazzed up tonight. My new, rather revealing (for me!) V neck sweater, and one of my new high-boob bras. (one's kind of a camisole type, so that might be better under the sweater. I just might dye my hair tonight today too. I'll tell y'all how it goes, tomorrow!

Actually, on this board, you can actually post pics that are on your computer. Some places make you post a URL, which means you have to upload your pictures onto the internet, so they're on a web page, and people have to go to that to see them. But HERE, when you're trying to post a picture, click on "Post Reply", like you normally would (not quick reply, cause you can't do it there). Then, you know the area above where you type in your reply, there's a whole bunch of options, like "fonts", "sizes", etc? There's a little icon that's a paper clip. Click on that, it'll open a new window, and ask you to 'chose a file'... use that and find wherever on your comp. your pictures are, chose the pic., the picture, then in that window where you've found the picture you want, you can click "choose" or "cancel" (might be different, but I have a Mac), click "choose" then in that first pop-up window, click "upload". It'll do something for a few sec's, and then I think that's it. Close the popup window, and proceed to type the rest of your message, and post it like you normally would. I don't think it shows you the picture, so you might not think it's worked (but if you scroll down in the window where you're typing your message, there's an area where it says 'addition options', and "attach files", if your picture uploaded, it'll be listed there). Submit post, and it should show up! Hope it works! I'll be looking for posts from you with pictures!

I think she means buses, like normal city buses... the ones you pay for each time you get on.

Umm.... uhhh.... 70 lbs Cloe?! You're a MANIAC! How does it feel?! See, I told you in no time you'd be kickin' my ass! 5 months! Think about it.. you've lost SEVENTY POUNDS IN 5 MONTHS!. Slap yourself next time you think you're losing too slow, or I'll do it for you!

How's it goin' there, Wheezy?

Hi chyps! Where was your sister banded? Don't count on the price coming down... the place I had it done, apparently has gone UP! Mandi and IAMCanadian25... I would have never guessed!! LOL

Weird... It's like deja vu... why would I have Bombardier, of all things, in my head?!?
