Now I don't know anything about mild coffee ...So back to the grind tonight - going to be a rough one!

Pun intended? Coffee? Grind? coffee grind....oh never mind.

Why a rough night?

Mystery Brew. Generally MB is a mix of the others so that new pots can be made. I take my chances.

Ewww...some of the coffee might be over 20 minutes old. ick.

You do better on the Pouch test than I do - I don't even get started!

LOL

DH just left for MX City

He gets around, doesn't he? Didn't he just get back from Canada?

Pool girl - how was your psych eval?

Ebony - have you had your meeting yet? Keep strong!

Tap - first nights back are always hard (they're my 24 hr+ nights - so rough there) in addition the longer I've been off before I have a first night back makes it harder to go back (been off for 1.5 weeks) on top of that - travel, climbing a mountain and sleeping no more on vacation than when I'm off has made me an exhausted girl - sooooooo.........ROUGH NIGHT!

I will be needing coffee (or coffee flavored milk as I like to drink it)

Plus side - hair appt this afternoon - yeah!!!!

Glou - I am actually going to do the 5 d pouch test, starting today too. Too much indulgence on vacation (the homemade sundaes were killer) I was fortunate to actually not have gained any weight - thanks to the walking and hiking but I want to try and jumpstart some more loss in addition to clearing my taste buds of the Snacks I became accustomed to. - we'll do it together - we can do it!

yes, was in toronto last wk.....london next.

i use to travel w/him - or meet up between my business trips, before we bought our ranch & i called it a day working ..... it's too much an effort & cost to join him these days.

he does work out of the house, when not traveling . sorta enjoying a bit of travel back in his gig, so i can get "stuff" done:)

My DH had to travel quite a bit when he first started his current job. We all (me, DS, and DH) enjoyed DH being gone during the week. My grocery bill went down. Utility bills went down. Then the travel just stopped. It was awful getting used to him being underfoot again. :thumbup:

I AM PISSED!

Apparently while I was in the airport yesterday (used the tmobile hotspot for internet access) somebody stole my credit card # used to pay the 7.99 all day charge for the access.

I know it wasn't from any gift shop/coffee shop purchase b/c I used my travel credit card and cash for that.

They apparently bought several hundred dollars worth of stuff at Bebe.com

I know the fraud lady was just being thorough - but she was like are you sure you didnt purchase this stuff - I was like lady - I couldnt dream of fitting into anything they make (which I only now know - b/c I had to go online to figure out what they were)

So now they have to close down that account which really stinks b/c that's how all my electronic bills are paid - uuuggghhhhh!

That is so awful! It still boggles my mind the absolute gall of people! They will reverse it all won't they? Have you verified all of your other credit card accounts haven't been stolen?

not sure what company you have, but you can get a new acct issued immediately under these circumstances. the problem once you have that - relaying that info over to your utility companies.

sucks hon!!!!

interesting, just bought a few bebe tanks - ... NOPE, not me that stole your cc:) **hugs**

FYI.. I think I am still recovering from the concert ugg...

Glo- you're crazy .. I suck a the 5 day test so props to you. By the end of day one I am hiding in the closet with a bag of chips rofl. You can do it though.

Lu- I have my DH rollin over the wine we mailed. He keeps asking me if theres anything he needs to know or do while I am doin hard time.

Kc- that sucks. My CC was stolen online and someone bought a bunch of UGG boots. Mind you I love them so when DH got the bill he asked how many feet I had. I said 2 .... He said take the other 14 pairs back then haha.

I called them and they reversed the charge and cancelled the account.

You can do it! Rah Rah! (See, I'm a great cheer leader, but not one to do these things). I did my 10 days pre-op no problem, and followed the post op plan (of one month's duration) to the 't', but to do it now seems impossible!!

I'll continue to cheer you and Glou from the ether!

Hmmmm.....I wonder if this is how DH feels. When we met, and for the first few years living together, I was doing a fair bit of travel. Now it is one or 2 trips a year - that's it. I wonder if I should ask him? NOPE!

I'm so sorry KC...I'm close to being paranoid about using my cc# at any time for fear of something similar happening. Do you know if any other people using that same service were also victims?

you gave us a chuckle last night -

when not traveling DH is HOME working & annoying at times.

there is no schedule - he wants to go to the gym w/me.....but has a con call; so 3hrs later, wants to go have lunch, or wants me to cook something - keep the dogs quiet for this webex.

i got a "certain" schedule and he throws it off daily & w/many animals - i have to have some kind of routine.

we're building a loft on top of the garage that will be his office, i need him out of the house:):blushing:

Other accounts ok - so far - just the one used for internet - don't know if it was electronic by putting it in or someone watching my typing - I've heard of that happening.

not sure what company you have, but you can get a new acct issued immediately under these circumstances. the problem once you have that - relaying that info over to your utility companies.

sucks hon!!!!

They are going to reverse the charges but they have to let it post first as part of the investigation and they said the refund may take up to 5-6 days - which coincidently is how long it ill take to get my new card! uuggghhh!

interesting, just bought a few bebe tanks - ... NOPE, not me that stole your cc:) **hugs**

Sure - just cause I cooked my indian feast for someone else :blushing:

Don't know - but will call them so they can be aware as well

I want to at least get one day accomplished!

Good point! I'd never have thought of that!!!

It's the Tap and Slim show in the morning again! Love it!

KC~ Oh man that sucks! We had somebody do that and make a ton of purchases on ebay - I was at a horse show and DH thought I was buying all kinds of weird things! NO - somebody had our card number. The CC company caught it and contacted us.

Make sure you also reset your passwords, just to be safe!

Lu~ I would love for my DH to travel. I like the down time. He hardly ever goes anywhere, but it is nice to have a few days here and there. I am the one that travels with my students and he hates it! Doesn't want to care for the kids, animals, yards/plants, and house by himself - too much work! No kidding!!!

5-Day Pouch Test~ thought about it, never have started. I will be cheering with Tap from the sidelines! Go KC, go Glouc!

Well, I thought I would check in during my lunch so I was not so far behind in the evening! BBL!

      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.
