Jes, you deserve a day off! enjoy it. Yeah, Teenie, I'm done - my savings is dwindling and i can't take any chances of my little nest egg getting used all up! Not in this economy! -

I really haven't Tina - The only thing really wrong with me is the Asthma, allergies (dust & pollen - normal things) and migraines - everything else is just a symptom of my munchousen sydrome LOL or is it a byproduct of my hypocondriac-ism - you name it, i think i got it! however, my doctor can't ever seem to find it - he is surprised at how healthy i am given that I am so morbidly obese. hahahaha. You know, I think i need one of Analynn's wuuuuu saaaaa's:w00t: Tina - I don't think I'd have a hard time giving them up too! How did Machaela handle it? Nicole - i am going to rekey ALL my cars - i can't afford to take care of my brothers family anymore:thumbup: -

Ooh, lets see if kaiser has some sort of two for one rate! I'd be willing to bet they're ugly as sin - just like my asthma one my parents got me way back when -

guess i'm getting a little cranky! maybe just a little bitter about the 400.00 I gotta pay tomorrow to pick up my car that I never drive. i think the bariatrics people are loosing thier bedside manner! They are use to the 90% drop out rate & of the 10% that stay, 30% of those fail and they are geared towards that instead of the 10% surgery completion rate and of that 10%, 70% success rate. -

you are too cute jes - you are too tiny to tip over LOL. because of the band they can't put a tube down your throat - at least not blindly so you're suppose to have a medical alert bracelet that says "no blind ng tube". it's in the binder for the RNY patients so I asked liz about it and she said yes! we need to have one and they will go over it with us on the 3rd. oh sweet jeasus! I waited too long to bathe! my niece just got in the shower - grrrr! I only have 1 bathroom. See, realistically, we bought this tiny 1 bedroom house because it was suppose to be just ME AND MY HUSBAND! but now I got my brother, his two kids AND HIS EX WIFE living here. I actually told my sister in law that my husband and i were thinking about moving out/renting a 1 bedroom apt just for us and let them make the mortgage payments. She's been driving my celica for the last few months with a broken wheel baring - I asked my brother if it would do more damage for her to keep driving it like that and he said NO! I kept telling her I needed to get it into the shop - FINALLY, she said it's making a loud noise and parked it - took it to the shop and because it was driven around so long while needing the wheel barings done, it broke the hub - so now that 200.00 repair has just turned into 400.00 - DID ANY OF THEM OFFER TO HELP PAY - ABSOLUTELY NOT! It's time they started to pay some rent or bills around here though - for real! -

one last thing - I was just taking my calcium and it finally clicked in my little brain what liz was saying about the vitamins! You have to take the calcium twice a day because no matter what the dosage is, your body will only absorb 500mg at one time and discard the rest - so we have to wait for the 1st 500mg to be absorbed, then take another 500mg. That's why twice a day and not once - often I don't make sense when I'm tired so if any of you want me to rephrase when I'm coherent just let me know -

Your forgiven Jes! I love Dogs too! got two Labs!! Cali tries to play with them but they are afraid of her LOL. I got my fitflops on line - Island something or other - the only place that still had a size 7 in stock! Tamra they are flip flops that are good for your feet - suppose to give you a little muscle work out like the shape ups do. google em! Jes, Tina and now me got the black electra ones - sequins = super hot! Ok, so what are the thoughts before I spend 100.00 on a super cute bracelet? I have one already - a generic one for my asthma but it's too ugly to wear - don't even know where it is anymore LOL so if I have to wear one it better be cute! how serious is it to have? I'm so stupid I don't even carry my epi-pen with me - i'm so for certain that it's expired! -

Heather - so sorry about your cat - I had a pet rat that I had to put to sleep because he had a hemmorage(sp?) in his head. I cried for a long time after that and I was 30 years old! In my defence, they don't want the cat, they don't take car of him and I told them he was here - he was soaking wet, freezing, skinny and full of fleas! now he is dry, warm, fat & flealess :confused: he loves me - he has arthritis in one leg and can barely walk on it - he's old! I CAN'T GIVE HIM BACK, I CAN'T! so, now I have to ask, Tina.... what happened to the kittens you didn't keep? they didn't go to the pound did they? Jes, i wll give you a step by step as soon as I get to recovery. Hopefully my fitflops by then :drool: I hear you though, like I said, i've had cancer, aids, swine flu - you name it - right now I think I need to have my gallbladder out hmm LOL - what ever I can catch or whatever can go wrong with me WILL. I did really have ecoli though! The 3rd will be fun! Riley, you coming? Tamra? Everybody?? Anybody?? Reggie, where are you ? guess I need to climb on FB to talk to you LOL got another halter dress for you ! My salsa one - I think its a 13/14 - my boobies don't fit in it but with your shape it will be awsome~ I think Liz got upset with us at the group Wednesday AND she called me out~ We were talking amongst ourselves and she didn't like that - it was rude of us. but she didn't have to call me out about my worrying about my husband before myself - I was dumb enough to tell her i thought about backing out because of the scars (for him). But I'm so not gonna back out - !! Wow, I'm getting sleepy all of a sudden - gonna wash my bod & climb in bed - nighty night Oh, Pammie - I really, REALLY want to hear how back to school night went?? Was he drooling or what? -

Riley, I know you said you were getting a medical alert bracelet but is anybody else? I figured if I was gonna get one it would be a saucy one but it's 100.00! Damn! I got my fitFlops today - sorry Tina but you don't get to be original anymore - I got the same ones you & jes got - they are the only cute ones! -

Tina we don't want you to stop! I love my cats but they are Psycho! Last night my male cat, Raider, was screaming at the front door so I went and opened it and, as it turns out - he brought me a mouse and was truly trying to bring it in the house - I teared up for the poor baby DEAD mouse - Raiders sister, Cali, started scratching at the screen so I let her out - she picked up the mouse and they both ran off into the sunset together! Tonight I was having swiss cheese and ham slices for dinner. I walked away from the table or two minutes and when I got back, Cali was eating my swiss cheese - grrr! My neighbors have a cat named Monkey - actually it was his daughters cat but she moved out and left him. Anyway, they don't take care of him - leave him outside all night even when we had those freeze warnings - Heres where you guys get to figure out that i'm crazy - My husband wouldn't let me steal Monkey so i bout him a covered cat box, put a pillow, blanket & heating pad in it (set to medium) and he slept in there all last year until I finally took him! now he sleeps on the bed with us - always wants to rub his face on mine around 4 am. My husband puts him out when he gets up and mumbles something crazy like it's not our cat - boo hoo! HE IS NOW! -

nobody better ever say I'm the queen of the longs posts again LOL. Nicole - I thinkg the before and after photo of you guys is a good idea - you can make like a collage card with your cricut - fat pics on the front and thin pics on the back and you can sign the inside! Make it a thak you card - put that machine to work! -

good question Donna - mine is on my ankle - not much cushion there to start with LOL. Still looks the same - looks like the Schlitz Malt Liquor Bull Skiing down the alps - suppose to be a roking horse - but instead of a horse, a bull cuz I'm a taurus - stupid crap I did when I was young - I HATE IT - WOULD LOVE TO TRY THAT WRECKING BALM -

Ok, I'm back - i was on the road home - I think I would be awsome if Heather & Tamra got surgery at the same time - I know this probably sounds weird but I feel so much better knowing that Jes is doing this "with" me (so to speak) Like I'm not alone so I'm less fearful.... Make any sense at all? -
