Hi everyone-- Here is the latest..I am scheduled in Richmond to see Liz on Tuesday at 8:30am. Wish me luck!! I am trying my hardest not to gain any weight I sure do not want to drive way the heck out there and then need to reschedule becuase I didnt meet goal..I was even thinking about taking some MOM on Sunday night to take effect on Monday morning and do all clear liquids on Monday. what do you ladies think of that idea?

Morning ladies..Jess thanks for the info. I havent heard from Sarah yet..I will try to call her be 9 this morning. Hope you all have a beautiful Thursday!

but I also had just ate lunch today an hr before I went....ah well Hi everyone! Tamra- dont get discouraged keep going, that was me a couple weeks ago..but now finally I am at goal it took me a freakin long time and I still need to lose more b4 surgery. I left a message for Sarah to call me back to set up an appt. I have a question; should I be logging what I eat b4 my appt with Liz? is she going to want to see a log? what should I expect from the case manager appt other than the quiz. Can't wait till Saturday I am looking forward to it. I am in need of some threads I am sure you all may have gotten rid of your 20-22's if not, I can take them off your hands. Heather whatever doent fit you I can take I am in 22's yuck!! I cant wait until I can say I wear a size 10 I think I was 19 when I last said that:laugh: Maria

Wow Candra- you only took a week off! dang girl you are a bad a_ _!! Well I just came in fro a few minutes I need to get back..but I will log in this evening. Bye for now.

Tina- not trying to get religous on you but I truly beleive Our Jesus has a plan and its seems that he is leading you into the right path for you...your job might even be closer than you are now and most importantly you will be hlping those precious innocent babies. So do not worry lady let his will be done. I am so very happy for you. Everyone - Good morning...I have about 6 pages left to read I will be gone most of today but will chk in and finish the remainder pages this evening. In the mean time I hope everyone has a great Monday.

Tina- I allied back in December and tested and passed so I get alerts when a Position is open that I can apply for. If you go to spb.ca.gov you can check out testing. Well had the interview this morning and went pretty good I think but I wont know till next week.

Good morning ladies. So glad to hear Jess and Candra things are better for you. You guys will be out and about in no time. Candra- I think that rash had to do with the soap u used. I use dove too the fragrance free one cause I have sensitive skin too. Is the rash still there?

YAY!! Good news!! Jess did you do the pee pee dance... LOL... You had every reason to be worried .you just had surgery for gods sake. Well I feel good...just waiting for the family to get home from the f-ball practice to eat my salad. Jess- shock the body, huh..well something gotta give..like very soon. Tina- I just rcvd an alert from the state for exec adm position within Social Services..I plan to apply, Im on the list but only ranked 5. Are you on any lists? I really hopw things get better for you.

Jes- I am so glad you are doing well you are out of the danger zone. Thanks for the tips..I absolutley will up my fish intake.. you know its funny becuase back in April when I checked my cholst it was 208 than I started the diet in the binder and ate a lot of boiled eggs in the am lost some weight then rechecked the cholest again it freakin went up to 227!!! I am so frustrated so I just quit eggs and now have been trying the cheerios and oatmeal becuase I heard somewhere oats is great to lower cholesterol hoping itll work..but I want to stop carbs to lose the weight I know cheerios is packed with carbs.... I might just try something else I am screwed either way :thumbup: Any suggestions, anyone??!! Meal plan for today: Bfast- Craem of wheat with fat free milk (I know its carbs) Lunch- Garbanzo beans sauteed with tomato,celery and onions Dinner- Just qued up chicken breast and will add it to a spinach salad. I also made a corn chowder soup but that's for the hubby and son. I made it a healthy version no cream and used fat free milk only bad thing that I see is the butter but I use the smart butter and I used less of it that was just to saute the onions, carrots and celery with. I might give in to 1/2 cup not sure yet I will try not to. Heather and everyone else that has lost the weight so quickly you are true rockstars man I just cant see that coming anytime soon. Well I need some positive right about now I am off to read my favorite book..my trustee Bible yes I am religious too. He will be walking side by side with me as he has with all of you.

TWO CHEESECAKES!!! You are a brave woman. That's my fear I love to bake and eat..that would be to much temptation fro me. how the hell do you do it?!!:thumbup:

Jess thanks for sharing that story. Candra- I know no more cheerios...my hubby said I should eat those everyday to reduce my cholesterol. My doctor said it was to high and wanted to put me on pills but I am not having that so I'm trying to lower the cholesterol, I'm afraid my surgery will be delayed because of the cholesterol. Heather- Congrats you are very close..just an FYI I never make appts for a weight check I just walk in.

thank u....fat lip??

oh I wanted to share my meal with you all.. tell me your thoughts... Bfast- 1/2 cup of cheerios with 1/2 bannana and fat free milk Lunch- Tuna wraps in buttter lettuce. with 1/2 tablsp of mayo 1/2 cup of lite cranberry juice Dinner- unsure.probably a salad. I am really trying...
