Lisa, Have fun in San Antonio, I was just there in April and had a blast! I love the riverwalk, you have to go to Polly Esters while you are there, they have 3 flights, bottom floor is current dance music, 2nd floor is 70's disco and 3rd floor 80's retro, we had a blast there and Coyote Ugly's was fun too. I am from Mesquite a suburb of Dallas and love every city in Texas. It just now got cold, so I doubt you will be riding bikes, but you have to tell me how much fun you have so I can live vicariously through you...you made me think I need to hook up with some old friends to get out of my funk. Funny how old friends bring you back to reality sometimes!! Have fun!

Chris said the weather calls for rain and/or snow in Dallas. For now, we plan on driving to Dallas on Wednesday, but only if there's no rain. I'm afraid I won't be able to convince Chris to drive in bad weather. Even if I can't make it, I'll be in Dallas for Slumber Convention in the summer for 4 days. I'm all hyped and ready to go though! We won't have time for much since it's a fast trip and I have 50 loved ones to visit. Just a quickie.

Well, I don't blame you for not wanting to drive in Dallas when it rains. I don't either! They have a ton of accidents when it rains. Actually they said we are getting sleet/snow tomorrow, I don't know what Thrusday will bring though. We can plan on meeting when you come back again, just let me know when.

Thanks for understanding, Betty! We're here in San Antonio where it's 32 degrees and dropping by the minute. We went to lunch, and by the time we finished the wind kicked in and dropped pretty darn cold. I called my friend in Dallas, who said the sleet started this morning. For now, our trip doesn't look good. But if we get bored, ya never know!

Either way, we'll see ya'll in August, and we'll plan on staying an extra day past Convention just to have a beer or 5.

Hey Lisa - my hubby said the weather report says it will all be over by tomorrow, anyway. Maybe you will be able to make it, after all.

:]

It's been pretty bad up here, 100's of accidents today. It's cold too! Be careful if you venture out. The news just said tomorrow morning will be bad too. Hopefully it won't be as bad as today. I guess parts of I-20 had to shut down.

Last year my SIL was stranded up on I-20 for 24 hours, alone in her car.

August would be a good time, heck we can have a pool party or something here at the house. Definately 5 or more! :):D:D

Have fun!

We just drove from Jill's house to her son's, which was only 10 miles away. Holy icicles, Batpeople! You can't stop at a red light too long or the car freezes over! It's friggen cold & icy out here and only 32 degrees with cars a-slidin' and accidents on the news. No plans for traveling at this point :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
