Getting Ready for Spring Bootcamp

[Josette 2]

I found a copy of a prayer that I really needed last night!!!

The Woman's Prayer

Dear Lord, I pray for:

Wisdom, to understand a man;

Love, to forgive him and;

Patience, for his moods.

Because, Lord, if I pray for Strength,

I'll just beat him to death. AMEN!!!

I Love love LOVE that. Lastnight we were up till 3am arguing because my hubby got laid off permenantly from Ford in September and his unemployement is running out and I don't feel he's looking very hard for a job. He was an inventory supervisor and now he's saying he'll just go get a part time job at Wendy's. How does a man settle for that. I don't understand it and I'm VERY frustrated!

Ok.. I vented enough.

I had a sugar free pudding for Breakfast this morning. I've already had 17 oz of Water.< /p>

Josette he didn't mean that, he was just being sarcastic. HELLO He just want's a little break. I'm sure he is proud to be the "MAN OF THE HOUSE" so don't stress. Just be sure he sees all the bills especially grocery store receipts.

Josette, I am with Teresita on the sarcastic part...Some husbands just have a tendancy to use it at the absolute wrong time or conversation..Sorry about you all having problems...Sometimes I get so aggrivated at mine that I could just strangle him, but then there would be the entire problem of where I would get that extra income if he was gone so I loosen my hands a little from his neck...lol

Hi All,

Feeling better today.......still have cramps:mad: , but haven't succumbed to cheescake and coke:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: . Your right sarge, today is another day. I am going to fill up my water bottle right now!:speechles Do you guys feel sick if you drink too much after eating? I have to wait about 45min-1hr after eating before I can drink my Water. It makes it hard to fit in enough protein/food. How do you guys do it??:mad: I'm afraid I'm a bit too tight d/t unable to eat solids well. I am trying to just deal w/it and hope it loosens up a bit. I go for my 3mo appt 2/14/07. I can have a slight unfill then if it persists. I PB on anything solid (PB'd up one dorito last night....One!!) Soup, chili, and refried Beans are my meals for a while. I have been drinking V8 juice to get in some veggies!!

so far today:

Breakfast: cup of sugar free hot cocoa

lunch:1 cup chili w/1cracker

going to fill water now!!!

Turner24 just eat or drink what you know works. Use this time to lose more weight while you wait to get an unfil. As long as you can get your fluids in so you are not dehydrated that is good. Chili and Soup is good for you too. LOL

Bandida you are doing so great right now that I know once you get your band your weight is going to fly off. Keep it up girl.

[avilla 1]

Bandida, I wish you all the luck in the world tomorrow...Your going to be a bandster tomorrow!!!

My check in for today:

8 ounces of chocolate whey (breakfast)

1.5 cup salad with shredded cheese and a few pieces of crab on top, with light ranch dressing(lunch)

dinner (unknown at this point)

20 ounces peach tea

50 ounces of Water (so far)

Im doing it!!!!!!!

Bandida, the weight that you have lost pre-band will make a difference in your recovery. (at least that is what I am told).

You will do so well.
