There ain't nothin' belated about it, Darcy... today she is a my birthday!

Woo hoo, thanks everyone for the Happy Birthdays. I really, really, really wanted to post a picture but I was in a big hurry this morning. Attached is the best I could do (pretty goofy and embarrassing but I was in a hurry.)

Alex, are you out there? Can you flip the picture for me? Anyone?

Love, Birthday Dork aka Biker Dork.

Darcy, great job! You're "movin' on down"!

Penni, you've been under a lot of stress lately! One lb. is nothing! I recently gained 2, then juggled them back and forth for 2 weeks.

Lisa, Happy "UnBirthday"! But you know what the alternative to "not getting older" is, don't you? I know you don't want THAT!

Is this a NSV or a scale victory? I finally weigh less than my husband! Of course, he's several inches taller than me. That is so embarrassing and something I would have never admitted anywhere but here!:)

OH MY GOSH MARIE, that's the biggest NSV ever! I have never weighed less than any man in my life... EVER. I just got my new drivers license (I'm laughing) and I put 190 for the weight. That's hysterical - I'd be bone thin at 190. So hubby says, "so honey, do you really weigh less than me?" Uh, NO! CONGRADS!

Penni, I agree that you'd have gained way more pre-band. One pound isn't even fat, and you know it. It's just some Water fluctuation. You can't gain a pound unless you consumed more calories than you should have, and we both know you made some bad choices, but heck, you eat tiny food now. You didn't gain a pound, seriously. By the way, I went to a new doctor, and his scale shows me a full 10 pounds lighter. I gotta steal that scale!

That's an awesome picture, silly girl! :D You look great. Have a wonderful birthday dinner, and then back to the straight and narrow. :D

I love it that your hubby had to ASK if you weigh less than him! And I thought 190 was as high as you could go on a driver's license. :guess Like, isn't that the limit or something.

When I got my motorcycle license put on back in April, I had them put mine at 180. HA! I was between 240 and 250 and hadn't even decided to get my band yet. So when I make goal, maybe I'll get one that says 105. :)

Marie, That is soooo awesome! Pretty soon he'll be able to pick you up and twirl you around. :D

ROTFLMAO!!!

Geez, I wish I'd KNOWN that... :)

This reminds me of an off color joke... I know, what doesn't?!? lol

"Do you know why women are so bad about judging distances? Because ever since time began, men have been telling them that __________ is "nine" inches..."

So my version of that joke is:

"Do you know why men are so bad about judging how much things weigh? Because ever since time began, women have been telling them that (((()))) is 135lbs..."

lol :D

This is a good roll of laughing here... keep me laughing, please! I work with such a dull bunch that ME, the birthday girl, had to take someone else out for lunch! Get me through this boring day!

The driver's license thing is killing me. And now that I look at my picture, it's damn slimming! I'm not that thin, but I somehow contorted my body just the right way to make me have a waist. I think it has something to do with the closet being open... for a Libra girl to post a picture showing the inside of her messy closet is a big stretch. I'll have to get all geared up and get on the bike, then have Chris take some pics. I'll send them as Christmas cards that say, "Hey, F-Off from Vegas" (snorting refries out my nose.)

Oh, and my jacket is kinda sloppy big. The 2X fit like a condom, but this 3X slips and slides too much. Why can't plus sizes come in halfzies the way normal stuff does? But it is a mighty fine jacket, and it smells like new car!

      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.
