Well at last i am on my way to becoming a Canadian citizen, i have been trying for the last three years, and because of a mix up with the first name everything got held up.

I had to go to Barry today to take the test for citizenship, except because of my age i did not have to take the test. So six weeks from now i will officially become a Canadian citizen.

Hurray for me.

Maria :canada: :canada:

CONGRATULATIONS MARIA!!! WOOT WOOT!

Thank you Cloe, Wheezy, Neenagh.

I am not very good at talking about myself, I am one of these people who pretends everything is going well, you know puts a brave face on, but inside i am hurting, or tell myself my problems are not worth talking about, so i just keep quiet.

I thought getting this band and losing weight was going to help my back problems, but my back is worse now than it was before banding, actually it is more my hip than my back. I was diagnosed with osteo arthritis and that losing weight would help, but it is not helping so far.

I hate getting older, turning sixty is for the birds, so much for the golding years.:cry and on top of that i gained weight last week, and i have no idea why, i was sick and had no appetite, so i was eating less than i normally do, i expected to lose more than the one to two lbs per week that i have been losing, instead i gained 5 lbs. 5 LBS, YOU CAN GUESS HOW THAT MADE ME FEEL.:angry

Well Cloe i bet you are sorry you asked how i was.

Maria, I am not sorry i asked!

I'm really sorry your not feeling well, just imagine how much worse you'd feel with all that weight back on. I also gained weight last week, but it was my own fault. I went on a Mcflurry frenzy before my fill. Nothing lasts forever, hopefully your back and hip will get on the mend soon. See your doc, listen to him, take good care of yourself, and come see us more often. I'm bitch'n all the time on here, your welcome to bitch whenever you want!!!!

Take Care

Carey

Oof, the goldie years suck, you brand new lucky Canucky. Bette Davis said that growing old wasn't for sissies. It is good to hear your voice again and you should feel free to express the downside of life on this site. You should know that there are others of us who may be going through the same b*ll$h!t, too. Feel free to vent. I myself am suffering from a buggered-up shoulder that won't get better and I still don't feel any restriction!

And this is most depressing time of the year! It is the time for eating and sleeping....

Hiya Maria!

Bitch away all you want!!

I know the feeling though...I tend to keep things to myself as well (yes, believe it or not!!!).

I was sick all last week too (and it is still hangin' on) and I also thought I'd lose....I gained 1 lb last week. Go figure. First time I've gained since August. Ugh. I'm thinking it is just the body's way of saying "WTF?!!" after being sick for a while.....probably yours too. Dunno why you gained 5 lbs....but no worries....it'll come off. Slow but sure wins the race.....right? I sure as hell hope so!!

Anyways, hang in there Maria....you can do it, we can do it, we all can do it! This was just a little speed bump in the road of life.....

Thank you Green, Betty Davis was right, it is a good thing i am not a sissy, but this hip pain is really getting me down. getting in and out of the car is a killer, but i am not going to give in to it. You sound like my husband, he hates this time of year, he is already complaining that winter sucks.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
