oh but it's so much more fun to get schnokered with your friends than to just pop a pill!

Tracy, did it snow over there??? I left work at 3:00 cause I was feeling like crap and when I got on the road I couldn't believe it was actually snowing pretty hard!! Wow. (for all you other Violets, that is obviously BIG news for us!! Kinda stupid eh?)

Laura - Do you really think you can keep the sex a secret from Russell??? Our old neighbors did that, except it was switched...the husband knew and the wife didn't. I'll faint if it's a girl! I just KNOW it's a boy!! (I just LOVE little boys!) You WILL text as soon as humanly possible, right???

Well, so far this Zicam doesn't seem to be helping me :(

But Terry--I want her to have a little girl!! LOL---just keeping the playing field level. Considering when the new grandson arrives it will make 2 girls and 2 boys------------keeping it all fair in the family too!!!

Got my mattress toppers picked up at Walmart, spent hours looking at things with my Mom, and am finally home, and my house is a wreck, I need to seal my cards and get them to the PO!!

Going to actually DO that------and will BBL. Still no snow here. Good thing I am not waiting for that snow to kiss my man!!!

When I went to get Macy @ the bus stop it was a sleet & snow mixture. Kinda worries me a little actually because last time something like this happened they had that bad tsunami overseas and then the following summer hurricane Katrina & hurricane Rita hit....coincidence or el nino?

thought i would pop in - just sat down... was goingto grout the tiles but i decided i would be better if i did that tomorrow and i got on my hands and knees with a super bleach mix and scrubbed the tiles that are going to be under the cabinets, there was left over thinset and mud from the walls and just dirt. Tomorrow i'll grout when they are dry, we are getting the cabinets in and somewhat placed and i have to run 1 outlet and the new line for my ice maker. I'm actually going to have a kitchen... yipee

Okay, I am leaving early in morning so SOMEBODY TEXT ME ABOUT LAURA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it is a girl (sorry Terry!!).

Okay here is my long story, I am a little freaked out over all this.

My ferratin and Iron binding capacity has been low for who knows how long, I had an appointment that was made for me to see a hematoloigist, the sleep people think I need an iron infusion because I move my legs more than 80 times an hour. I never knew this, I guess living alone I wouldn't. Anyway two weeks ago I went to my regular Dr. and asked what he thought about what was going on with the sleep dr's and the hemotologist. Well he had a huge fit, and said I was to cancel my appointment now with the hemo Dr. and he would take care of it. So he scheduled the upper and lower studies to make sure I wasn't bleeding somewhere. This is so confusing if you are keeping up with this good for you. Anyways, I got a letter last friday saying that my white blood cell count was high and I needed to have it repeated. I went in Monday before my tests and had it done, and this time it was well over 20,000. My neutrophils are also very high. So the Dr. called the next morning and said he was really concerned about it, and was I in any pain or anything, I told him just what I assumed was menstrual cramps. He then told me to get a ct scan of my abdomen and pelvis the next day, well it didn't work out for today, so I am going in the morning. I also called this morning and since I have asthma I told them maybe there is an infection in my lungs? So they are checking that out to. Then last night I went checking on the internet about this and saw leukemia as a concern. I am freaked out!! I consider myself still under an umbrella of protection because of my brain tumor and ovariian cancer. I have had my fill. Then today I got a call back from the nurse at my lap band place, and she said they knew I had an hiatal hernia! The swallow in June showed I did. HHHMMMM Did they ever think of telling me????????????? I am so pissed!!! I am a mess, I know I don't have leukemia, but I am not sick, but have a high white count, low iron, and can't sleep!!! Okay I am not going to rant anymore!!

Somebody please text me about Laura's baby!!!!!!!!!Thanks

Hugs girlfriend... your story sounds similar to mine these days. My Iron was ok but zink is low, i had to have the same CT done because the resident dr said it was my kidney and i had to have radioactive crap on Monday. I go to see my dr tomorrow at 10:30 for test resultas and what is next

I'll keep you in my prayers tomorrow.

Laura + can't wait to hear what your results are... I say boy

good nigh all - for real

      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.
