Argon's Activities



Recommended Posts

I am going to buy the Fairytale Christmas for my kids!!! Do you get royalties??

My kids watch all those animated shows.. Do you know Deliah and Julius? A kids show on teletoon, I kept imaging that you animated that one!

Your avtar, is that your drawing??

Hope you get the job!!

Ooooh nooooo! Don't do that! I can't be held responsible if it's horrible!! OK?!

Haha, no, no royalties, unfortunetly!

Some of my friends from Saskatoon are working (or were, I think that show's done now) on Delilah and Julius (in Halifax)!

My avatar, actually my boyfriend did that for me. I don't think I'm a great draw-er, and definitely not compared to him!

Thanks for the good vibes! I'll keep ya all updated! :)

Now I have to go... Dan's making me make a birthday and christmas list. Ugg... I'm so bad at that. I really don't want anything. All I have on my list is comfy socks, and perfume. Can you guys think of any thing? Even list things YOU want, and maybe that will give me some ideas of things I might want!

Well, how about gift certificates to get new clothes, a day at the spa, pajamas, house coat, body cream, bath salts, scented candles, jewelry like something with your birthstone or something with a Canadian diamond, like a Bracelet, pendant, ring, anklet. How about books, like your favorite author or a book of slow cooker recipes. Oh I know, a new computer or accessories for a computer, a new laser mouse, maybe a some of software you'd really like. A laptop so that you can have access to the internet wherever you go. A tool kit for repairing glasses. I can go on and on......Let me know if you would like anymore suggestions.

Hope this helps

Wow, your good Wheezy!! What do I want??

Well, let's see..for starters how about a gift certificate at Micheal's, then once your husband is elected have him influence either cable or the the phone company to put the cables down your road for high speed internet so that I don't have to feel so bad if I post a very large photo. In the meantime, I will avoid posting any pictures.

LOL.......Awwwww, don't feel bad, post away!!! I can always do what the kids do and leave the computer on all night, usually by morning they have what they needed!!

Hopefully, those damn council-people will get with it and get us some high speed!!

I have cable light speed internet. It's cheaper than high speed yet it's pretty fast. 10000000X faster than dial up (at least it seems that way). It's only been a year since we are able to get cable. We still can't get a high speed phone lines here.

Oh my goodness.... I WAS about to go to bed, (in much pain from being tortured at the gym with my new 'routine', and thinking of tonights fabulous episode of "Heroes"), went to the bathroom, then proceded to look at my stomach... then push it all in, and see what could be.

THEN... I actually grabbed my stomach, pulled it up, and it all came! Very easily!!! OY! Could this be my first sign that I will indeed have some mega hanging skin!? I could always grab my stomach and move it around, but THIS... this was like pulling up a squishy pair of pants!!!

Ugg... off to bed to dream of lower body lifts, I guess.

(p.s I hope you don't mind my stupid blurbs here and there.... but this is my thread afterall, and if I can't say stupid things here, where can I? I suppose its kind of like a journal/blog... I like to be able to look back and see when things happened)

Oh! What a drag about the spare skin!:P I hope it goes away. Still, it is a sign that you have lost a lot of weight. It is an NSV, I guess, though not a really neat one.:)

I don't know about that... I'd think 15+ years of overweightness should equal the damage of pregnancy, no? I've got some major stretch marks, which are looking lovely-er and lovely-er everyday (read: wrinkly-er and wrinkly-er).

Maybe the gym will help... maybe the skin will catch up... who knows. It was just a crazy thing to see.... I woke up this morning saying "I'm wearing squishy pants." LOL I really don't think I'm gonna be someone who's going to be running to the plastic surgery the second (or 30lbs before) I make my goal. I'll wait as long as I can, and hope it springs back into place.

I'm thinking of buying some kind of 'scar treatment', to do an experiment. I want to put it on half of my big scar, and photo-document the results. I honestly am not worried about my scars at all. Like I said, my stomach is enough of a mess, a few more marks just add a little bit of interest!

Also, I am in great pain today. Who would have thought that those freakin' lunges actually did something! All this time I saw people doing them, and thought "ha! what a waste of time!". But, I think they're what killed me. I didn't believe I'd actually worked my abs at all last night, but I believe it now. And obliques?! I guess I do have them, cause they're killing me! I'm on a 3-day program now, and I think tomorrow, (day 2) is arms and back. Ugggg... I really hope my arms don't feel tomorrow like my legs feel today. complain, complain!!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
