My Dad passed away this morning. Yesterday he was taken to the hospital because he passed out. He woke up shortly after losing consciousness, but my mom insisted on having an ambulance come to get him. They drs determined that the problem was blood clots. They put in a screen to help, but couldn't give him any blood thinners because some of his tumors are bleeders. I got to see him before and after surgery. This morning, DH and I were on our way to go see him again when my Mom called to tell us he was gone. This has been unexpected, and I am not sure how to handle it. I am doing alright, but I am not sure if it has really sunk in yet. I don't even know why I am posting this, but I just need to get it out I guess.

Lotza, so sorry to hear about your dad. I lost my mom a little over a year ago and I know what your going through. You are in my thoughts.

Everyone did really well this week, except for me :biggrin:. I have been gaining the same couple of pounds on and off for awhile. I have been eating BAAAD! I am scheduled for a fill on Friday. I haven't had one in over 3 months. I still have episodes of pbing but I really think it is all my fault. I have been trying to eat like a regular person...eating foods that I know give me trouble and eating too fast and too much. But I am get scared of being too tight. After the episode in January, I guess I am afraid of fills now. But I need something to get me back to the program so I am going to go and get a small fill.

This is so great!!! ROTFL!!!

Bella,

I'm going to weigh in early for next Monday. I won't be able to weigh on Monday. Since Monday, I've lost 3.6lbs. So you can log me in for a loss of 3.6lbs for next Monday's weigh in.

Thanks!

dee~

Sorry I missed the weigh in this week. I'll just wait and weigh on Monday.

Lotza, how are you doing sweetie?

I'm sorry, but we simply cannot tolerate behavior such as this!!:thumbup:

I agree!!! 10 lashings with a wet noodle, and make sure it's lasagna! :wink:

[Snowgator 3]

Sorry for the delay, I"m down -2 this week. Got to visit Dr. K, as I went with a friend as she went in for a consult. She's now scheduled for June. Mary has left the office, and they have a new tech, I think her name is LuAnne.

I don't blame you Bella. I canceled my fill too. I haven't had one since Nov or December. I can't remember for certain, but I don't want to be too tight and right now, I am still okay. I think it's so scary to have a stuck episode. I got stuck on some roasted veggies about 4 weeks ago and it was the worst. It seems the healthy foods always do that. I do okay with salads - as long as there aren't any brocolli in them.

[julie.ann 1]

I lost 3 lbs the first 4 days of the week and gained 5 lbs the last 3 days of the week.

I'm sitting out this weigh in. About makes me sick. :thumbdown:I haven't had a gain since surgery 6 month ago.

[jmegirl 2]

Well, after last week's truly remarkable weight loss, I managed to gain and lose the same 2lbs this week, and today I'm back where I started. I'm happy with my zero!!!!! Because no gain is a good week, especially in my book when I'm prone to little gains here or there.

It sure is stressful though, having such a big loss last week for the first time since surgery. I get on the scale, gosh it must be 6 times a day now. I freak out over the littlest tenth of a pound. I need some serious de-stressing in my life. And I need to throw that scale out the window!!!!

Also, I'm supposed to be in Denver on Friday (May 8th) for a fill but I still don't need one. It's amazing. Haven't been filled since Feb 13th. I'm going to call this morning and postpone. Not sure what his vacation schedule looks like in the upcoming months so I hope I can get in to see him sometime in June!!!
