I'm so glad I don't have email notifications on. That would drive me crazy.

There is a blizzard warning in effect until 6am here, and until noon in North Dakota tomorrow. I'm going to cancel my fill. I hate to say that. I'm trying to convince myself that roads won't be that bad, but I know that I need to stay home. I'm just worried what another month will do to me.

I will do it. I will do just fine. I just am freaking out a little bit.

Spent 2 hours blowing snow this afternoon after my little JaiJai's birthday party. Managed to only have half a piece of cake. It was a wash day food wise, and even though I was busy all day, no actual work out. Back is killing me though. It probably wasn't the best idea to go push that stupid snow blower....but the puppies really needed me to work them out a path so they could get out of their room and get some exercise.

Okay...gotta get to bed. I'll talk to you all tomorrow.

Me Too.

Hope you're not getting dumped on too bad, Steph. :thumbdown: I just heard the weather report and it must be headed this way. 3-5" tonight and another 3" tomorrow. Then, Weds, the deep freeze. Gotta talk DH into heading for warmer climes.

Janet- I bet you lost all your post didn't you?

I hope you're not cursing and drinking now.

Denise YES !!! I WAS SO "F"ING PISSED I had started that post Saturday morning - but you all had been so chatting that I didn't have time to do it before I left for the gym

I responded to all that stuff - hit post it went thru then NOTHING - IT WAS A WASTE OF A GOOD 45 MINUTES..

I was so PISSED :thumbdown::cursing::wub::cursing::cheers2:

I just got off the damn stupid computer... I had things to do !!!! and when I still on the computer for 3-4 hour streaches - nothing gets done...

On Saturday took the dogs to the gromers did my Target shopping - Went to marshals and got the cuties pair of shoes came home at noon and cleaned my room and bathroom - Sunday went to HomeGoods and got 2 trees - Sofa Table and flower and redecorated my house

Ok little recap

Steph you are not a failure or poser!!!!

Candice - I wasn't critizing your medical care system I am such an Idealist that I think the concept is great everyone should have access to medical care - but I think that Cancer is something serious and you shouldn't have to wait to see a doctor...

Karri - Yes it's about happy weight & being healthy..

Kari - Just keep doing what you are doing (exercising & eating healthy) you will get to your goal - and 165 who be a good #

Denise - Hugs on the Mother issues - and screw your sisters - in the end you will be the better person and they will have to live with their guilt - Isn't it so funny we all wish we had normal lives - then we listen to each others drama and the lite bulb goes on - there is no normal - we all have somekind of drama or issues in our lives..

LOL!! I bet you're right!!

I was wondering what that post was all about!!

Well, not much wind all weekend, but it sure has picked up now.

Earl had to put the awning in AGAIN!! And, it's clouded up, too.

It was such a beautiful morning! And it's pretty warm... like 76.

Phyl - we haven't had any wind down my way _ I know they keep talking about winds but nothing so far THANK GOD cuz I hate the wind

Ok It's Monday back to the grind of things... Hope you all had a good weekend - I am sending sunshine your way...

Thanks for the SUNSHINE Janet! Stephanie, Kari and I can sure use it!!! The weather this week for us 'northerners' is going to be 30 below zero + the wind chill factor... I am borrowing my hubbies arctic longjohns, I think I'll wear them to work under my scrubs!!!

I am a bit more calmed down than I was on Sat when I heard my friend got fired..... I am going to go in to work today and act like I don't know a thing, and see what my Boss has to say for herself.

Back on the good food band wagon, no big damage done on the weekend.

Are you going to be able to make it to Vegas??

Hi Everyone!!!

Soooo, I've gone off on vacation for 3 weeks and all of you guys have gone wild. Hummm!

I went through the holidays in the most interesting mode, an overly tight band. Wow, 4 weeks of hell. Having a teeny bit of saline removed tomorrow, yippie! Have been having problems keeping down anything solid since a little after x-mas. And, of course now I'm so tender that I can't stand much of anything that is not milk based (no fruit included). Thank goodness I have access to my Protein Shake ingredients again.

Going to restaurants has lately included checking for the rest room as soon as I enter. So rough that I even got a sore throat from the PBing. With my luck, probably put on weight while not being able to eat anything. Will work up the courage to get on the scale tomorrow before going to work.

The National Western Stockshow is in town which means "stockshow weather"...temps below 0 F. Heavy snow today and heavy winds and lower temps expected again tomorrow. Lost a bunch of tree to wind while we were gone. Oh well, got to consider it just nature's way of thinning.

Everyone keep your chin up and well wrapped in scarves. You northerners be especially careful. Remember that we don't have as much insulation as last year.

Ladies, the new photos are fabs.

Candice - I just talked to my GF Debbie - we are going to come on Friday Night when I get off work 1/23 and stay til Sunday - so won't get to Vegas until 9 or 10 - Imperial Palace right !!!!

My GF Debbie - has never been to vegas and she will be 55 in April. She is really jazzed... She has lived a sheltered life compared to me...

Kari - This is for you - it took me 5 months to get from my original goal of 160 to 140 - so be kind - it will come... I just never stop the healthy eating & exercise

I think I still have your cell in my cell - I have a new phone at home so I don't have your home number anymore - I will email you ok..

Greetings Everyone:

I have been so very busy that I haven't had the opportunity to write, though I have come on and read everyone's posts. - Not all, just the last two pages or so everytime I come on.

I had a rough November, so I'm kind of glad the New Year has been ushered in. And in CT, it's been "stormed in with snow."

Anyway - I do have a question I was hoping someone could answer. Because I had the gastric bypass, I have now developed a hernia. So, because I need to have the hernia repaired, my surgeon informed me the insurance would pay for plastic surgery on my stomach. I'm assuming a Tummy Tuck.

My appointment with the Plastic Surgeon is next Monday the 19th, and I am so excited to go.

For those of you who have had plastic surgery, how long was the recupperation and has anyone posted any before and after pictures anywhere, and could you tell me where they are?

I promise that I will post, my before and after pix, after my upcoming surgery.

Thanks a million in advance for responding.

Priscilla in CT.

      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.
