Pssssssssssst.... ((looks around to see who is looking)) HUSH HUSH NEWS BANDSTERS!!! ((come closer to the screen I have to whisper)) Can you all keep a secret???? (nods nods nods nods all around) Well we had the BEST time on this cruise I thought that maybe I would venture to put together yet ANOTHER one (although less expensive and 4 nights/5 days). It would be out of LA port on Royal Caribbean in Early December.

Give me a week to work out the details, but watch for the thread!!

And shhhhhhhhhhhhhh:kiss, don't tell anyone yet!! (hee hee, I have about 5 cabins going already and I don't even have the exact prices yet!!):cry

This cruise will be open to children, husbands, spouses, significant others, friends, siblings, banded or not that want to go. We created such strong bonds between all of us and I want that to continue to grow. Maybe someday we will have enough of us that we will book the ENTIRE ship! This bandy cruise is going to be even bigger and better (which by the way will be hard to top!)

P.S. To my June cruisers: you are all wonderful and I miss you very much. Thank you for laughing at my dumb jokes and my karaoke fiascoooooooooo!:faint:Each and every one of us showed the true "us" with our laughter, comedy, pranks, sexy dresses, confidence, self respect, and comfort. GREAT NSV TRIP LADIES!!!!! THINK ABOUT ALL OF THOSE NSV'S YOU DID LAST WEEK REALLY!!!:hungry:

Gotta go before someone hears me....... (sneaks out the door):bandit

Does anyone know if Alli made it back to Greece ok? Karla, by the way I forgot to say thanks for being the "cruise director" and helping us find all the fun activities, I was too lazy to read and see when they were and then I just got used to you having it all planned out for us... what would we have done without you????? I don't even want to think about it! LOL! Keep in touch!

Ali called a little while ago. She finally made it home. No luggage but she is there. Said she went to bed and when she got up she thought it was about 10 AM and it was 5 PM. Was calling Jordon and showering and going back to bed.

Hello, my sisters!! Melissa, glad you like my cute new avatar.. I should've bought that hat, it was a neat glittery-gold color. Oh well, I got enough stuff. It was my pleasure to act as "cruise director", although I think you forgot the customary tip of $50/day??!!!! what's up with that? :mad: JK

Jenna, I'm game for another cruise - just not sure if I have enough vacation time. It replenishes in January, so you can bet I'll be saving it up for another cruise next Mar/Apr/May/Jun.. whenever we can arrange it.

How are you? Check in when you get a chance!

Fran, glad Ali got back home safely.. I hope her luggage and souveniers arrive in one piece. Sounds like she had quite the adventure with the 10 hr layover..... it's torture when all you want is your bed in your own home, it must have been hell.

Love to all,

Karla

I know you're getting tired of these, last ones for today.

We had fun learning to line dance, notice in 1st pic how Judy (dark blue floral tank top) is not in sequence... but, she recovered in pic 2!

Can't say I didn't TRY the rock wall :mad: ouy veh! here's proof, in color no less. I only made it about 1/4 way up!!! oh well, just gives me something to improve on before our next cruise! arm/leg strength, whew!

WOW!!! This trip was such a cool idea. I have never been on a cruise. Anyway, I just joined the group tonight. I will be undergoing the surgery on July 17th. I was convinced that I wanted the gastric bypass. However, my surgeon feels that I am a better candidate for the lap-band. I am still debating.

      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.
