I'm here. We went to the Cars premier on Friday nite. The movie is very good. I got to see (from far away ) Owen Wilson and the rest of the cast. Chuck Berry preformed and that was very cool.

Ok, Im having panic attacks... It all started last week. Hubby went out of town to Orlando for the microsoft conference. No biggie. Ok, I am ashamed to admit, but the house cleaning company came Monday. (it was a gift to myself for about... 5 months) I didnt have access to hubby's paypal account and I sent an email to the house cleaning lady (independent, not a big company) telling her so. Apparently, she never go the email. When I got home last Thursday, there was a NOTE ON MY PILLOW asking where her $ money was. So I call her and told her that was unprofessional and freaked me out that she just came in and left a note on my pillow. I said you could have called or left the note on the door. She got snippy and I got snippy back and cancled with her right then. The only way she had access was via the garage door opener key pad. I have disabled it. It totally freaked me out. I had "boundry" issues with someone coming in to clean the house to begin with and she did that. Would you have done that too? My panic attack stems from the re-occuring nightmare that people break- in to the house. I still wiggin' out over this. On a side note.. I never had panic attacks until I took Welbutrin 2 yrs ago to try to help with weight loss. What do ya'll think?

More than likely not a 6mt plan. I have seen that more to get the approval from the insurance comp. You may have to do a week to 10 liquid diet the week or so prior to the operation so your liver is not as fatty.

I have another spin on this.. is she over weight also? I watched a couple of friends of mine with the lap band. Granted, I never asked rudely why they did or didnt lose x amount of weight. But if one moved quickly and one moved slowly, I asked. Are you her undercover guinea pig? Is she looking for hope for losing weight by watching you? Watch someone who has this surgery and trying to decide if its right for you is hard. Sometimes you ask stupid questions, or good questions, stupidly.

You LIKE the animated films? Ok. I like them too, but that singing. *shudder* Reminded me of those science films where the guy's voice would sound all choppy. ok, enough LOTR, back to language.....
-
In my case, my PCP had to run all of the tests and write a letter of "ok for surgery and why". Then he gave it to my lap-band doc, who inturn, sends it to the insurance comp.

I hope that's a LOTR reference, not a World of Warcraft reference. Im a WOW widow. Stupid online game.

We dont have a spoken language.. its all secret touches. I grab his arm and squeeze three times if i want to leave some place. We also have the "pat system". You pat the other person on the leg or back and it means stuff. We have condencending pats, for when you are acting stupid. Love pats when you are in the mood; "look at that over there pats" for when you see someone dressed in something stupid. happy pats, sad pats, pats that say "im mad", pats that say,"WTF". What can I say? We are odd. Oh we also have this thing where we do this eyebrow thing then look to the nearest exit when we want to leave and have a little "private time"

I fully admit to not having a life. So, who's up to watching the "So you think you can Dance?" with me?

I have been fat ever since I can remember. I remember the story my mom tells everyone from like when I was 8. "we took her to a dietitician, but I love her and, well, its hard to tell her no, she cant have a cookie." My parents owned a restuarant. I was there on the weekends from prep in the mornings till closing at night. My breakfast consisted of grilled cheese I made with like 3 pieces of that processed cheese stuff. Snacks would be french fries with pieces of that cheese wrapped around it dipped in blue cheese dressing. Lunch and dinner would be what ever was on the menu I wanted. Evenings would consist of eating ... anything. and everything. I couldnt play outside much since i was at the restuarant and never home.

One saggy boob said to the other saggy boob: "If we don't get some support soon, people will think we're nuts."
