Judy, you can ask for anti naseau (sp) meds.

Sending you prayers and love Judy...waiting for update!

Quick check in. Went from 1.2 in band to 2.0...and I am HAPPYHAPPYHAPPY!!! I am SERIOUSLY considering bypass surgery, and had a very long talk w/ the doc. He said there are new studies showing that nearly 50% of lapband pts fail (or the band fails the pt)..either way! May do it near Thanksgiving. I have about 5 or 6 friends who had it and they all say they are so happy they did it...and they'd do it again in a a sec.

gotta boogey...love you all. please text me if anyone hears from Judy...will be away from puter today, and have a mammo at 3:30!

Just a quick good Friday morning!

Sending you thoughts and prayers judy!

Pam, ever consider the sleeve? I think I'm gonna save up to do that once I'm done having kids.

Tonight dinner at my aunts house. Tomorrow we are gonna go watch salt and try a new restaurant in town. We've been home bodies lately and need to go on a date!

But for now, lunch at my favorite mexican restaurant! Yay! I'm such a piggie!

Everyone have a great weekend!

I am home and feeling great!!! No sickness at all. He did a general with the stuff that killed Michael Jackson... He died???? It was extremely painful when I woke up.. I did my best not to scare the other patients, but the pain pills kicked in fairly quickly and I was able to go home a half hour after I woke up. Doc said there was a LOT of popping and cracking. He got it to bend to 120. I have therapy this afternoon so as not to lose what I gained today.

Can't tell you how great it was to wake up and not be puking. I told the anesthesiologist that I was going to name my next child Annie after him. Going to go ice the knee until therapy at 3:15. Thanks for the prayers and purple power.. they worked!!!

I plan to swap to sleeve after I'm done with the babies thing. All self-pay of course, so that's a lot of saving, who knows when I'll be able to afford it.

Glad Judy is on her way to recovery!

I had a dream last night that I was at a normal walk-in clinic because I had a cough.. and some reason they decided to do an amniotic test (without me knowing it), so they walk in and go 'did you know you're pregnant! you're having a girl, she's good and healthy!'.

And I was like whaaat?? I knew I was preg, but didn't know how they knew.. anyway.. then they wanted to give me 2 big azz shots in my belly for the baby since I had a cough, and that was a big ordeal I kept saying no... but I woke up and kept going "it was a dream... but they did an amniotic test, so it has to be accurate!" lol

So happy you are fine, Judy. Prayers do work, I believe that. Yeah, don't lose your bending power. You'll be running around California before you know it!

Judy,

So glad you are back to business!!! That is wonderful news!

I talked at length w/ doc about the sleeve. It is the same as the band, and has the overall same success rate. I am TIRED of the 40 year old battle w/ this. I know it is not going to be "easy" but I am ready to start this.

Good evening, Violets..

Just up from a 2 hour nap while Bob went golfing.

Therapy at 3:15 was so good! I got the knee to bend to 110 without feeling like I had to scream from the pain. Rode the stationary bike, did the total gym and all of the exercises were so much easier. I sure hope this holds! I will be in the pool and on my stationary bike tomorrow to I don't lose any ground over the weekend.

Got good news from Joe in Wyoming.. he will start working on the oil rigs on Monday. Much better job, much better pay, much better benefits. He is a happy camper because now he knows he can take care of his family. Ethan misses his Gramma and Grampa and I sure do miss him, but things are looking so much better for them out there. We'll be making a trip out there in a few months so I can get my Ethan fix.

Off to get my tabloids and read and eat pizza for supper. Life is good!!

Everyone enjoy their weekend!

Judy, I am so glad to hear you are doing well.

Home from work, and I think I am going to hop in bed. Very tired for some reason. Not real busy at Sallys, but super duper busy at real job today so maybe that is it.

[Teachlady 3]

Good morning, Violets..

Looks like a beautiful day here today. 88 degrees for a high. It's POOL time!! Gotta keep the knee bending. I had a great night's sleep on the couch. Bob is going golfing for most of the morning. I have my tabloids to read and laundry to do.

Hope everyone has a great day!!

I've got a good book recommendation for those who enjoy the Stephen King genre of books. So Cold the River by Michael Koryta.

Oh yeah, 1 more stop this a.m.... I'm going by the Y to sign up for 2 aqua aerobics classes that start next week. Tues morns is "Shallow Water Aerobics" and Fri morns is "Energized Aqua Pi-Yo-Chi". I've got to get back to basics, and I did enjoy the aqua workouts, so...

judy, oh i'm so happy for your son. I bet he feels a thousand times better now that he's able to provide sufficiently for his family. It relieves so much stress from a family dynamic when you feel like you have a strong position and a good sense of purpose in your life. I feel so so happy for him!

It's so gorgeous outside and even though we have tons to do in the house we are gonna go play. First we are headed to a few fabric stores to see about the fabric for Sophia's bedding. My aunt has very generously offered to custom make all her bedding and nursery items. I'm so happy because I wasn't liking any of the bedding that I had been looking at. I went to a boutique and fell in love with some stuff but just for the crib bedding it was more than a thousand. Um, heck no. Not for baby poop and spit up. I want it to be nice but not expensive. So we'll see what I can find...

have a great saturday!

Good afternoon!

Fooled ya all by being here now didn't I?

We are celebrating my sisters 50 birthday tonight, and for some reason she gave me the night off, she later changed the schedule after I had made plans for an impromptu party and ordered the cake etc..., but she was nice and let me off. Whew!!!

Pamela, to answer the question you asked about a week ago about reading, they give me benedryl, so I can't really concentrate on reading too much. I can read short little articles, but not books. But, monday is my last day!! Yeah!!!!

Okay off for a little bit....
