LJM - how are you and the bean doing? Are you continuing to feel occasional contractions?

we are doing great ... 3 days til induction (not counting today and Friday of course :scared2:)

i have not felt any real contractions lately... little back achy-ness, but nothing serious.... it does however feel like i have a bowling ball in my pelvis ... that is just a tad uncomfortable...

I haven't been on lately...

I am very glad to see that everythings going well with the pregnancy LJM.

That's great you only have a few more days!

LJM---that's right! when I read what you typed I remembered my Dr. saying that exact thing! Wow! I knew he said stuff, didn't remember what all! LOL

Glad you knew--refresh my memory!!!

lol ... do people actually cuss the doctors out? that would be great...

I don't know about cussing, but I slapped my doctor when I was giving birth to my son 15 years ago. She reported me as hostile and a potentially violent mother. The hospital refused to release my son to go home with me until my dad (my then hubby was stationed in Turkey and since the baby was early, didn't make it to the birth) threatened to call the MPs (military hospital) and accuse the hospital of kidnapping. They released the baby within 15 minutes.

Good morning everyone. I have finally lost 50 lbs! I am so excited. This was 1 of my mini goals. Now for my next goal. 

WTG!

Oragsms used to help out with my menstrual cramps but only for as long as the orgasm lasted.

Orgasm helps with EVERYTHING!

Is this a random rant site to post? Ok, here's mine. The ticker things on the bottom of everybodys signature don't say whether it's lose from the surgery or added the pre-op. I'm all for being proud of ALL weight loss but it would be nice to know what the band has actually done for people. OK, I'm done. Thank you:biggrin:

Right? I find this annoying also as I want to compare my progress with others. Even though I know I shouldn't, I can't help myself and I usually come out with the short end of that stick. My weight loss to date has been a snail's pace.

Good morning everyone. I hope you all have a wonderfully fabulous Monday.

Same to you!

I am very glad to see that everythings going well with the pregnancy LJM.

That's great you only have a few more days!

Ditto! Remember, curb the urge to slap the doctor!

i admire ya'll woman who have given birth - i cry & need an epidural when my labs have gone into labor....i'm a big sissy, and proud to admit:biggrin:

Booya, Plain!

Ok, I thought you meant, like lately. Although, if my math is correct, shots on the 2nd and 3rd would have put baby LJM around 33 weeks? Back in the day when I was hanging in the nursery, docs usually cut off the steroid shots around week 34. Of course, I do live in the backwoods.....it's very possible that we do things different here. For example, during childbirth, if the woman asks for an epidural, she's given a thick leather strap to bite on.

Don't be petrified of it - it's not like you'll be "drunk" on it and have to drive (serious, not smart ass). You can test it out all while in bed! Then you'll know in the future if you can tolerate it! From what I've heard, it's not unbelievably strong.

Ambien is one of the weakest of the sleep aids commonly prescribed. 75% is typically out of your system after 6 hours

I've seen season 1 of Dexter; it's SO good. It's really well-writen IMO. I need to rent season 2.

I haven't seen the series, but I read the 3 "Dexter" books. I thought they were great, until the 3rd book....then it goes a little weird / supernatural....

PS - the smoothie was good stuff! I got a Slim N Trim (?) with 3 kinds of Protein. It wasn't a full fat milkshake but I thought a good substitute since I would have some protein!

Sick, I know I'm a buttinski, but please be very careful. I think this is kind of a bad habit to get into.

Does wine in the morning cure a headache from wine the night before?

Biochemically speaking, the only cure for a hangover is to wear supplemental oxygen while "sleeping off" the evening's activities.

ok - funny story, dh and i went to get a bite to eat last night, and when we were coming up our driveway (mile long dirt road) - we realized the gates were open and a car parked by the pond. it wasn't really late around 8ish & as we got closer dh stopped the truck to let "whoever" know they were on private property. it was a couple i'd say my age doing the nasty, and i mean nasty cause what i saw was NASTY!!!!!

the wife slipped out of the car butt naked trying to pull her cothes on, they left in a HUGE hurry......i can't stop laughing at that scene.

Oops, sorry. I told my wife that was somebody's driveway, but she wouldn't listen....

I guess I can do Richard twice

!?!

I have never had any of those "special brownies", and now I am too old to experiment. Darn it!

Well.....you're never too old. BTW, ingesting the THC is really not doing it justice. Ya really have to smoke it. If you're into that sort of thing.

Plain - when I had the smoothie, I hadn't eaten anything in 29 hours and had thrown up 7-8x in 12 hours. I was proud that it wasn't Dairy Queen so shut it!!! :thumbup:

PJTP-I know that there are more important things to talk about right now, but I AM NO LONGER MORBIDLY OBESE!:thumbup: I know I am only barely out of it, but it is so nice to see a 3 instead of a 4. Now if I can just get below 200.

Congrats on that Slim!! I know just how you feel - it was such a big deal for me when I lost that "morbid" label that I made 2 separate posts about it AND put it in my sig!!

No, I totally get that part.....it's the doc that would allow this that concerns me a little. The band (as you know, 'cause you're a smartie) is meant to work with solid, real food. If you can't tolerate that, and your doc is arguing with a slight unfill......recipe for trouble.

[Fanny Adams 7]

Goof!!! I don't think men should hafta carry purses or heels; that's just wrong! :thumbup:

Sexist! I look great in a purse and heels!

OOOH!! Hey Plain, add that to the list of pics you promised me!!

[Gracey 7]

Oh believe me....my doctor's crystal clear that I wasn't happy!!! Plus I now know to stop listening to him vs. what I "know" in my head!

[Gracey 7]

Fanny - BAH!!! And welcome back, missy
