Morning gals

quick check in, i'm late

Kat - I don't wish a layoff on anyone.. I know how tough it is, but it would be horrible if you coulnd't go, but understandable

Jane - well, isn't that something to think about......

I know when I found some inner peace was when I was ready for surgery, I was physically cleared in October the previous year

have a good day everyone

Good Monday Morn, Vi's~~

Fingers crossed for Rick, Kat!

Janie... "do do do do do do do do" (Twilight Zone music, cantcha tell?)

Up & have given Mo his 2nd bath in 2 days... the first one didn't really get the job done... he's so funny... he just kind of floats around in the tub w/a puzzled look on his face, like "what are you doing to me NOW?"... silly boy... but he is out of quarantine & so now we shall see what happens... I was crying last night listening to him meow in his sad little way when he was back in the bathroom... I'm afraid that even after all this, I think I know how it all may end, & maybe sooner than we'd like... :thumbdown:

I actually have paying work again! Hallelujah! So it finally feels like the New Year has Really started!

Make it a great day, Vi's!

Good Morning, Violets..

I'm nursing a darn good cold. I went to bed at 8:30 last night and slept til 7:30 this morning. I'm not even going to get out of my jammies today. Ethan is here and he's playing baseball on the Wii. It's amazing to watch him and see how much he knows about it already.

Kat.. fingers are crossed and prayers offered that Rick doesn't get laid off.

Janie.. I agree with your calendar. Ya gotta love yourself first and foremost. We all love you so that's a good start!

TracyK.. hope you get that miracle at the doc's today.

Michelle.. congrats on the weight loss!! wooo hoooo, you're doing great!

I am so glad I did the day pouch test. It sure put me in the right mindset to get this thing done once and for all. My eating has changed drastically and I have not had sugar for over a week and have been lo-carbing it as well. I feel like I am in control once again and it's a great feeling.

I was looking at flights again last night and I'm going to leave from Detroit so I have a non stop flight to Alabama. I'm not messing around with those short hops that can get delayed or cancelled.

Time to go medicate myself for the day. Everyone have a great one!!

HELLO, PAMelA!!

If you're serious, then I'll do it, Terri.

You did such a great job last year, I can understand if you'd like to simply enjoy this trip. Maybe we can rotate each time? I like to organize things... & I'm sure getting this group coordinated will be a challenge!

Let me know... + any advice from you, the master, will be welcomed!

I sent out an e-mail, I think everyone was copied??? I am less than a mile from the airport, so I can shuttle people back and forth and/or provide a place to hang out while we wait. It's Huntsville International Airport (HSV) and it's a small airport, so no worrying about who comes in what terminal (it is one terminal) so you'll all be coming in on the same hallway.

I think we figured this in, in the beginning, but with my NEW FANCY SCHMANCY CAR.. it's very roomy, I can hold 2-3 adults, plus Carson and me. Depends on how cozy someone wants to get (for 3 people) with the car seat. I mean for going down to the place (I am guessing about 20-30min from my house).

Russell will be home, so carting between airport & my house will be no big deal, Russ can stay at home with Carson while I run it.

Jane- It's ironic & a good thought, but I was happy with who I was for a long time, and oblivious to my weight.. didn't make me lose weight!! Did I misinterpret the passage?

Sending healing vibes to you Tracy, I know the importance of a good chiro visit!! Hope you come home feeling brand new.

I don't know about organizing it, since I'm so behind and I know there's much more qualified :thumbdown: :wub: But like I said, once everyone starts getting their flights mapped out, don't worry about when you get in, I'll shuttle people between airport & my house and we'll wait there till everyone comes in. :cheers2:

And Tuesday, then we have a cold front moving in and it will be 75 for the rest of the week! :thumbdown: This ladies, is WHY I endure 115 degree July's...that and also this IS freakin' paradise!

Judy and Tracy...mend well. I am not sure what is going on w/ my cold thingy...not very happy in the am or the pm...butduring the day it is ok...well, sort of. Weird though.

Terry~ Sorry, I dont know shit from shinola on where or what to do. I just know how to pay and play! I think those are my strong suits!

      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.
