Yeah, hope you get it!! I've seen them here in several places this past few weeks.

Does anyone know anything about the new Jillian game for the Wii Fit?? DIL wants one for Christmas and I was thinking of putting one on my "wish list", but DH thinks it might be "too physical" for me after he looked it up on the internet. Amazon.com has it, and Circuit City is advertising it in their flyer this week.

I know that Steph had ordered it and I was hoping to hear about it from her.

We did get one. Frozen toes and all!! We also bought 2 games to go with it, but I think just like the Wii console...we are going to end up liking the game that comes with it better than any.

Well it got up to 25 degrees and now it is quickly on the way down again. We are back down into the teens. We are supposed to have a HIGH of 13 tomorrow. Lows are going to be in the negatives. This is Minnesota weather!! The Dept. of Transportation posted on their website. "severe weather warning. Travel with survival gear" Ummmm....I think we will be staying on THIS side of the mountains. Still haven't heard if our kiddos made it back from the coast or not.

Well I am going to go take a nap. The wii fit and the early morning freezer wore me out!

Hi. Been doing Christmas shopping, etc. with the family. Thought I'd pop in and see what everyone's up to this weekend. My restriction has loosened up a bit but I can still control portions so I feel good about it. I just love the fact that my hunger is no longer controlling me and for the first time in a very long time, I feel I am truly eating to live and not living to eat.

Hi Everybody,

Computer not letting me change fonts again.

Yesterday me and DH spent the day in the French Quarter. It was lovely. N.O. is a beautiful city. We went to Christmas shop. I got nothing, except a few things for me, as usual. Then we went to the mall. I got one thing for DS. One thing DD wanted was sold out. I freakin out, I have so many presents to get. I can't think of, nor find anything. I'm overwelmed. I can't remember a Christmas were I couldn't find presents.

We had light jackets on yesterday. Today, I had to put on the AC. I cooked one of my pumpkins from Halloween. My brother was over, and he kids liked it. So I gave them some. So I chopped up the other big pumpking I had and cooked that one. It just finished.

Tomorrow I have a Dr. appointment. I think I have gallstones. The pain started about a month. ago. I thought it was my boob. Then it moved to my back. Now my right shoulder blade on my back hurts all the time. I have had to take a sip of my Loritab everynight to sleep.

I'm off to take a bath and wrap the 2 presents I have. Lord this Christmas shopping is stressing me.

YOWSERS!!

That gives me chills just thinking about it!! Actually, I already had chills because I"m freezing! It's 49 degrees outside, 62 inside, pouring down rain and I"m sitting under an electric throw that's on HIGH!! BUT, we DID go to Water aerobics this morning anyway!! Only light showers when we left, and we had to put the CD player undercover so it woulnd't get wet. And only 9 of us showed up! Heck, you're going to get wet anyway, and the pool water is HOT, and we need our exercise!! Heck, I'll be under this blanket on the couch for the rest of the day!! I don't even want to get out from under to go potty!! The cat seems quite fascinated with watching the water trickling down the outside of the window. I think she may actually be hypnotized by now.

Going AWOL again this week. From the gym, that is. Took a header off the front porch on my way to church, Sunday. OUCH ! ! ! ! The top step was ice and my feet just flew out from under me. Don't ask me how, all I know is I ended up on my stomach, face in the snow, facing the other direction. And my left butt cheek hurts...............BIG TIME ! ! ! Colorful, too.

      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.
