Desiree if your port is still hurting from your sneeze you should call your doctor tomorrow. It shouldn't hurt that long. My little dog jumped up on my stomach this afternoon and it really hurt my port but it is better now. I think both of your pains should have gone away by now or will be soon. If not talk to your doctor. I have had a wonderful day with my hubby. I think I learned how to deal with my irritation with him. I just ignore him until I am calm. We just had a great day together. We went to church and then out to eat and then we watched the football/baseball game together. It was really fun. I hope everyone has a great week this week. I am very tired and am going to bed soon so I will say goodnight and God bless.

Glad to hear that you have had a good day. Hubby and I are now talking. He doesn't even know that I was mad at him all day. I guess that is good because I am kind of over being mad at him and we avoided a fight which never leads anywhere. I think that next time I am mad maybe I ought to try this again. I did good on my eating today. I haven't had a chance to do the challenge but maybe I can get in the pool tomorrow. We have had a little cool front come through and it has been too cool to get in the pool. I am off to bed with my book. Talk to ya'll tomorrow.

Well I could have predicted the way this day would go. Hubby stayed up all night so of course he slept all day so we didn't get anything done. Well that is the way it is every weekend. He really pisses me off. I am trying to avoid a fight and the way I do that is not to talk to him right now. Maybe we can "talk" later. So you see Sherri you are not the only one who has problems with your spouse. I do to. Another thing he does is eat, eat, eat all the time. Maybe he thinks that he needs to make up for the food I can't eat. It drives me crazy because he doesn't need it. Don't get me wrong I love him to death but he sure knows how to pull my chain. Well talk to you guys later.

Chris - that is wonderful. They always say that men lose it faster than women and I guess that is true. I am so glad that you are losing it now instead of waiting until you are older like me. You need to enjoy your young life and what better way to than to be healthy and thinner. Desiree- The first week after my surgery I had a similar sneeze. My port hurt for days as well. I called and they told me the same thing that they told you. But when I went to get my first fill my port was crooked. I asked him if it could be from that sneeze and he said no. I think that it was. But by now I wouldn't think that it would hurt your port. You had your surgery the same day as me and by now I would think that it would be healed and securely in place. When you get your next fill the doc will know. Try some ice on it if it still hurts and definitely call the doc again if it continues to hurt. I do hope that it gets better though. My port hurts sometimes when I lie down especially on my side. I can't lay on my stomach yet. I hope everyone is having a good weekend. I am getting hubby up in an hour and we are going to run our errands. I will check in later.

Glad that school has gone well for you this week. I knew that we wouldn't do anything today. Hubby slept some and so did I. Well there is always tomorrow. I know what you mean about the fills. I can eat more than I could when I first got my fill. I too wonder if it leaks out somehow. I am going in two weeks to get another fill so I am trying to me good until then. Sherri- you will definetely be in my prayers. I know that things will work out. I have been married 26 years and things are always up and down but I love him in spite of them all. Well everyone I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Get some rest and of course exercise (an oxymoron) and enjoy yourself. I am off to bed with my book. Talk to you tomorrow. Tootaloo

Hey guys. I am doing good today. I didn't do much but I don't do much anyway anyday so it is no big deal. I have a phobia that prevents me from driving by myself or going 20 miles from my home comfortably with someone with me. So I stay at home alot. I do go places during the week with my mom if she is available which most of the time she is. I don't want to wear her out though. I go places with hubby on the weekends if he is not sleeping (He has back troubles). He promised me that he would get my car fixed this weekend so I could get out and drive around the neighborhood. That's about all I can do now. Sorry to write such sad stuff but I wanted you guys to know this about me. I don't usually share this with many people. I am hoping that as I lose weight I will feel like doing more and more challengeing things. That is why I get frustrated when I don't lose much. I will get there and I will overcome this phobia. That is why I am home alot. Anyway I hope you all have a great Friday and weekend. My hubby is off tomorrow so I hope we can get some things done. You guys are the best friends that anyone can have. In fact you are the only friends that I have right now. We are getting back into our church so I hope to make some new friends there. But you guys are the best. Good night my dearies and I hope you sleep good. I am off to bed with my book.

Jane- Can you see? I had that surgery (Lassik) ten years ago and I still have perfect vision. I think it was one of the best things that I have ever done. I wore glasses/contacts since 3rd grade. Sometimes your vision can even out over time. I hope that is the case with you so you won't have to have more surgery. Is your son going far away from home? If not, he will be home when he needs his clothes washed. Mine did. Breakfast suggestion: South Beach Breakfast Bar... has 10 gr of protein. It tastes good to me and you have to eat it slow. I eat them everyday. Check them out. You can eat them on the go. You do have to chew alot but think of it as exercise for your jaw. Nighty night all. Talk to you tomorrow. Someone needs to help me change my tickerfactory thing. I have tried all of your suggestions and none has worked.

Thanks for asking Michelle. I am much better today. I have had a good day so far. I got us some food to eat at the store so maybe I can lose some more weight. I was down because I was sick and I thought that I would surely lose more weight than I did. I hope when I go back to the doctor I can get another fill. Can you get them a month apart? I just feel hungrier everyday. I hope not. I am trying to only eat 1/2 cup of food but it is hard. I want more. Well I got to get things going so I can get food on the table for tonight. Talk to ya'll later.

Hubby went to work today and I am off to the store. I am feeling much better today. I only lost 1 pound so I am not very happy about that. Next week I go back to the doctor and I am going to ask for another fill. I hope he has time to fit me in. I haven't eaten very healthy since I was sick but today is a new day and I am off to buy us some good food to eat. So I hope to lose next week. How was the rest of you teachers first day?
-
Well guys I made it through another day. Still not feeling all that great but better than yesterday. My hubby was sick today as well. He stayed home. I mostly took it easy today. Tomorrow I have to go to the store before I start eating cardboard (I don't think that it would go down very well). I am out of everything. Well I have enjoyed reading all that you guys have written the past couple of days. You guys are the best friends anyone could ever have. I have to go now to go to bed but I hope you all have a good night and a wonderful day tomorrow. Step- How was your first day of school?

Kari - I can tell a difference in the two pictures. Your daughter grew up awful fast too. lol

Thanks you guys for making me laugh. It has been a terrible day here. It rained all day my hubby slept all day and I had the runs and was in the bathroom all day. I am so glad I decided to check my computer before I went to bed because I needed a good laugh.. thanks. Good luck on your fill tomorrow Ruthie!!

I had a good day today as well. We were both healthy enough (finally) to go to church this morning. It felt good to be back. Nobody really knew that I had the surgery so no one said anything to me. I don't think you can tell anyway. I have alot of things to do tomorrow with hubby. We are going grocery shopping (how fun) and some other stuff. Today I ate a small burger from Braums. It went down good but slow. I think I got that need for a burger out of my system so I don't crave them anymore. I hope that everyone has a great Labor Day!!!

Question 1: Yes he knows how much I weigh. I don't know how much he weighs but he doesn't either. Hehas always know and now so does my mother. Question 2: One time we went to the lake and decided to get on a jet ski and ride around. We had fun until we tipped over. We couldn't get it back over (which cost us to fix) and then we had to get on another one to get back to shore. I could not get back on and the people around us couldn't help me. I jammed my leg bad and thought that I broke it so they had to go get the coast guard to take me to shore in the boat. It took several attempts to get me in the boat. I was so embarrases and we spend the rest of the evening in the ER checking out my leg which wasn't broken. I don't have any desire to do that again even when I lose weight.

You guys would be proud of me. I cleaned out my closet and drawers. I have clothes for next summer and this winter. I have been working hard all night and worked up quite a sweat. Now it is done I am so glad that I did it. We have a rental house and I manage it (I don't really do anything but collect rent) and I get 100.00 a month for spending. I have been putting back about 40.-60. dollars a month for clothes that I will need after I use the ones that I have. I also got lots of gift cards for my birthday for clothing stores so I will be set to go on a shopping spree proabably next fall. I can't wait. I don't know much else right now but I know I am tired and ready to go to bed soon. I hope you all had a nice day and I will talk to you tomorrow. Peace

Well I did it. I went out to eat and didn't overeat. I ate half of a 6 inch sub. It was roasted turkey and cheese. I didn't think that I was ready for lettuce, tomato and onions so I just had it plain. I was surprised how full I got. I can't wait to go somewhere else and see how I do there. I used to go out to eat quite a bit so this is exciting for me. Does anyone have plans for the holidays? If you do please share. I will start. We have an above the ground pool and a gazebo so if it doesn't rain we will probably be in there. But it is supposed to rain so maybe we will just stay in the gazebo. My hubby is not big on making plans so we will probably just watch some movies and eat out maybe. We have nowhere to go so we will be close to home.

Boy since school started everyone disappears during the day. I am glad that you lost that pound. Way to go. I am going out to eat for the first time since surgery. I am going to Subway. I am going to be good. I promise. I am going with my mother and she watches me like a hawk. She went with me to all my nutritional classes so she knows the ropes as well as I do. I plan on only eating half of a half. If you know Subway you will know what I mean. I will report back later and tell you how it went. I am excited to be going out to eat. I hope that hubby and I will go out sometime this weekend so this is a good pratice. TTYL

I couldn't understand what you guys were telling me to do so I just redid it. I hope I will catch on so I wouldn't have to redo it everytime. Thanks for your help.
-
I am not getting it. I double clicked on my signature and it doesn't do anything but give me some arrows. I don't know what to do after that.

Will someone tell me how to change my tickerfactory?
-
Yeah Step!:clap2: :clap2: I am so proud of you. Way to go. I hope that you get all you work done before school starts. How do you change your weight on your ticker factory thing? I need to change mine. I hope you all have a great day. I hurt my knee yesterday while exercising. I am going to put a bandage on it today before I exercise. I hope that will help. It is better today so maybe I didn't do any bad damage. I will let ya'll know later.

Doing good today so far. I plan on doing my gazelle again today even though I went to the store and walked alot. I missed the chat session last night because my hubby had to redo my computer and I lost all my favorites. Next time we have a chat please give me the link to go to to join ya'll. I had a busy night anyway. My hubby and I are planning our dream home. His family has a bunch of land down south of us and we are seriously thinking about building it there. We are getting excited about it even though it is years away. Four at least maybe longer. I had a good day as far as keeping my food down and not hurting so I call that a good day. Now if I can get the gazelle in then it will be even better. TTYL Step- How was your second day of work?
