If I understand correctly, Funny simply volunteered to do the GFG Club just to give P'Nut a break. I never heard P'Nut complain or say she was going anywhere, I just think Funny just volunteered to be nice. It can be a lot of work to do all the stats every week.

Am I understanding correctly?!? P'Nut is still here, just not the one updating the stats & everything. :)

Hey there folks. I have to make an apology to you all, but I mostly have to apologize to Pnut. I made an error in judgement by creating this thread. This is Pnut's baby, and it was not my place to assume that she was not going to do it, or try to take on the duties for the month to give her a break. it was something that i needed to discuss with her first. I didn't. My heart was in the right place, but my head was not. I have been under a lot of stress and living on caffeine for the last 2.5 days, and was not thinking clearly. I am so sorry Susan. Truly I am. I could not replace you, not in a million years, and I never would have done something that i thought you would take offense to.

So y'all, I want you to know that I feel just awful that I made Pnut upset, and that I came across as replacing her. I have a feeling some others perceive this to be my intentions, and they would be wrong. I gladly hand this back over to Pnut, or whom ever she would like to have handle it. I am backing away. This place is consuming too much of my time, and now has messed up a very dear friendship that I once had. I will be away with my upcoming surgery, anyway.

Oy vey.....I seriously doubt that Susan has a problem with Funny starting the new thread for the July Gone For Good Club so that people can post their Wednesday weigh ins. They are, after all, good friends. I could be wrong, but it's just a feeling that I have.

Furthermore, if I remember correctly, the Club was originally HeatherGurl's idea and P'Nut took on the challenge because Heather was unable to devote enough time to it due to her work/personal schedule.

Susan has done a great job with the challenges/threads but if she's in need of a break, I see nothing wrong with someone helping out until she returns.

Pnut has done a fantastic job!! I could never imagine trying to replace her. But she was hurt by this, and I feel really bad. She stated that she was taking a break from the challenge, but not from handling the upkeep of the threads. I assumed, and stepped in as a kind gesture only. Just to give her a break. That is all. But I did so without asking if she wanted me to. That was a bonehead move on my part. :)

Ok folks.. listen up. Funny did step in to help me out. She felt she was doing me a favor and I appreciate that. So this month's thread will be kept going as it was begun. Funny will update for us, and I would expect that she'll also be adding up the scorecards and announcing the winner of the June Challenge. :)

No biggie.

This isn't MY club. HeatherGurl and I started it so there would be a club that belonged to the club members, not just to the person with their name on the first post. And that's how it remains. I certainly don't want this to turn into a split group of people who gossip and point fingers at each other. It's seriously no big deal. As Kathy said, what difference does it make who posts what. The purpose of this club is not to glorify any one person. It's to provide support, encouragement, and love for the members. Funny was doing just that when she stepped in to lighten my load. That's what's important right? So shup now, and get back to those situps ya losers! *grins*

*hugs to all*

      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.
