Michelle, I hope your daughter is okay. That is so scary for you and her!!

Up and ready for another do nothing day!!

Tracyk feel better soon!!!!!!!!!!!

Janie - clean a shelf! :( DH actually cleaned out and organized his chest of drawers yesterday!! I guess my cleaning his closet inspired him. I almost fainted!

Haydee - Sounds to me like the benefit of getting the happy pills will far outweigh any issues with your weight! I think that these doctors expect a levelling off at 1 year, so I doubt he would be surprised or disappointed. Besides, the happy pills might help you get your head in a better place to get going again! :scared2: <---this could be you!!

Haydee.. if it's not on my registry, I either have it (like stroller, car seat, bouncer, etc.. my mom bought me those kind of things for xmas).. or I don't realize I need it (something about bottles, not really sure what I need... or items I don't know what age to get them).

Things like clothes, toys, etc.. I didn't really want to add them to the registry because I'd rather people pick out stuff.. I don't know what I want!

I'm not seeing spots, I think Michelle was saying, kids being sick is something I can look forward to. Speaking of which, Gracie barfed some food and had HORRENDOUS gas last night.. I swear, I will stick my hand up her butt myself before I spend another $350 to get her cleaned out :(

I've been wii-hunting this morning, finally found 2 at Walmart, not at the same time though. My uncle & granny bother want one & wii-fit. We played my parents' last night and everyone enjoyed it.

My granny went to the doc today, they want to put her on insulin (this is the side of the family where, her mom was 600lbs and bedridden, etc and died at age 35 from diabetes). She is really good about buckling down when they tell her that, she loses weight, then slacks off.. sounds familiar!! So she asked him to give her 3 months to get it under control.. she wants a wiifit to help keep her exercising!

:( I want that to be me!!!

You're right, I need to just swallow my pride and go see him. I am probably sabotaging myself on my weightloss by continuing on this emotional rollercoaster...

Laura - Yep, I was looking for all those accoutrements. Thank God for moms, right?? LOL.

Ethan left at 2:30 and the Bobster won't be home til 7 so it's very, very quiet here right now. I've read all my tabloids, fixed my tuna salad for dinner and caught up with my laundry. Now I can just sit and surf the net or read some more of my book. Decisions, decisions.

Any word from TracyK or Michelle yet????

Piehole report so far.

Breakfast...1 egg scrambled with cheese

Lunch...1 cup ham salad with mandarin orange segments and soy nuts

Snack...1 slice cheese

2 liters water

I'll have tuna salad with the oranges and nuts for supper and then maybe some berries and cream for dessert.

I've done a few minutes on the min-elliptical and think I'll do some bowling for a bit.

Will check back later.

& the Official diagnosis is: sinusitis. A "bad" case. Okay... she doesn't even sound / look / or act "stuffed up"... but there you have it. Put her on more antibiotics & I have to take her back next Tues for a re-check. The doc was very good @ listening to all the symptoms & checking her thoroughly... even made her do some DUI balancing tests, which was funny!... she hasn't had another "pounding headache" since... cross your fingers that the one this a.m. was the LAST one!

I was just joshin' you, Laura, about the "fun" that awaits you... this type of thing isn't what folks usually think of when they're all googlie-eyed about having a babe... but you're right... you are certainly getting good practice w/your cat! Ay yai yai!

Definitely get the little violet on top, PAM!

Thanks, everyone, for the good thoughts & purple power!! LOVE YOU!!

Ouch Tracy, herniated disks are the pits!! No wonder you've been in pain. What are they going to do to fix it? PT or surgery?

I spent today tracking Wii's & WiiFits to buy for my granny & uncle. I finally got them both, at their normal cost!

Went to O'Charleys for lunch.. had a ceasar salad and cedar planked salmon.. num num. Going to make roast tonight with the pepperoncini.

40oz Water so far.

No goodies!!

Okay instead of a shelf, I cleaned off a chair. Believe it or not my closets are pretty clean. It is the piles I have made that are making me nuts!!!

Michelle, I am glad that antibiotics can take care of this!! Scarrryy for you and dd.

Tracyk, hope they can make it feel better!!!

Snow watch here, we are supposed to get 4-8 inches then ice. We will see if that really happens. They are so bad at predicting things here!! I think it is bypassing kc so Suzie and Tracyks should be okay.

Hi, Haydee, Pam, Judy, Gina, Denise, Kat, Laura, Jen,and everyone else I have misplaced in my mind!!

      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.
