Sharing celebration



Recommended Posts

Okies . . . I'm a year younger today (yeah, yeah, that's a shameless plug for birthday wishes, I'm very bad :rolleyes2:) . . . but I wanted to share my celebration . . . I'm going shopping for some NEW CLOTHES this weekend, yahoo! I need something that fits, LOL :bananapowerslide: Time to treat myself to some new outfits!

Plus, I got me a personal exercise trainer! He's very handsome, young, golden blond hair, beautiful soft brown eyes, trim, fit, he's just gorgeous! He's gonna help me get into shape for sure!

And best of all, my hubby's not jealous! :lol:

Ok . . . here's a picture of him:

Finally, I'm a dog owner! YEAH! I've been wanting one for a while. This is Jasper, my new Golden Retriever puppy. We're gonna be doing some serious exercising together! :target: Jasper is still with his mother, but I'll be picking him up this coming Sunday. I can't wait!

More pictures to come . . . I might even get brave, and put me in one of them! :P

OMG Lori.....HE'S GORGEOUS!!!! I'm so excited for you!! I know you've been wanting a puppy for awhile and I'm just so thrilled that you have a new member of your family. Awwww....big hugs to you, my friend:huggie: Now we can BOTH be crazy dog ladies!!

And congratulations on your upcoming shopping spree!!:crying: I was going to reply to your other thread talking about the dreaded "in between sizes" (UGH that's the worst) but it sounds like you've pushed past a plateau....CONGRATULATIONS!!

Again, I'm so darn happy for you and Jasper is INSANELY CUTE. Trust me, as an owner of a Golden Retriever, he will DEFINITELY keep you moving. Can't wait to hear more updates on him (and you of course)

BIG HUGS!!

Happy Birthday!

Why do I feel like Frosty everytime I say that? Anyway, have a fantastic time. Enjoy the shopping and the new puppy! I have two and a cat, they definately can keep you busy.

Guess Squishy isn't a very good name for a dog. Still... just keep swimming.

So cute!!! I am jealous! My "puppy" is 7 years old and a great trainer! I bet Jasper is going to be great! He will probably good for weight lifting for a while before he is able to go on those walks.

What did you buy for your birthday?

Thanks so much for the birthday wishes, everyone here is so wonderful! :redface: I feel like this is my second home and family, I just lurves you all! :lol:

I'm off in a moment here to go on my "shopping spree" . . . hoping to find some nice summer outfits!

ReadySteadyGo - Jasper the friendly dog, LOL! Cute! Not to be confused with Casper the friendly ghost, yes? hehe :biggrin:

Amy - Thanks for your kind words sweetie! Well, I always was crazy, but yes, now I can add dog to it! I pick Jasper up tomorrow, I can't wait! :thumbup:

Michelle - hubby bought me a watch, and the shopping spree is part of the birthday celebration. :blink: My personal trainer/puppy just happened to come about at this time - I've been looking for that "special friend" for awhile now.

Thanks again everyone - you all mean so much!:rolleyes2:

Yes, by all means, post some pics of those new birthday clothes! I just can't bring myself to do a lot of shopping yet. I did buy a pair of size 16 pants to wear to my nephew's graduation. That was 3 weeks ago, and I put them on today, and I'll be danged if they're not already a little baggy. I'm going home today and try on some of the 14s in my closet. I am absolutely amazed at what a huge difference 5 or 10 pounds make in how my clothes fit. Is this cool, or what?

Ha! I guess I'm late to the party. Well, Happy Belated Birthday anyway! Hope it was as great as it sounded.

Your new baby is cute as ever! He will keep you moving, moving, moving... that's for sure! :sad:

      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.
