Pat congrats!! and Heather very well put.

Today I saw Dr. Baggs, I tell you he is a very nice man. He rest assured me that he saw no problem and that all my labs came back normal and not to worry about the surgery. I practically cried when I talked to him I expressed my concerns to him. I feel a lot better now!

oh and guess who I met today?? Lil Ms. Nicole!

Nicole, you are such a beautiful lady and your lil' Audrey she is just adorable!! Did she finally eat the apples? it was great meeting you and talking to you. I hope to meet you very soon. Everyone, I still have no answer about tomorrow.

Candra- where art thou Candra? (where you at girl?)

I think you meant congratulations Pat. Sadly I haven't done anything to be congratulated about.

My daughter and I rans some errands today and I will have to pick my boys up soon. Here I have been off three days and the only thing I have done around the house is clean my upstairs bathroom and take naps. I am so freaking lazy. I decided to skip going out to Faces with the singles group tomorrow night - there's like 30 people from the group going and it is out of my comfort zone - maybe next time.

I had 3 leftover chicken nuggets for Breakfast, a crunchy taco for lunch and a Peanut Butter cookie. I did really well yesterday - had tuna for breakfast, tuna for lunch and baked fish for dinner.

I took my car to costco yesterday to get the tires rotated and ended up having to buy two new tires - had to get my mom to meet me there to pay for them. Anxiety starting again - already freaking about Christmas.

Haven't heard from Maria about tomorrow yet. Heather and I will definitely be there.

Yee Haa.... Congrats Pat - you are on the way! Can't wait to find out your date

Nicollie & Liz.... I see those tickers going down ladies! Won't be long now.

Maria - I'm here - been in a BAD mood so I'm gonna keep it short cuz I tend to have a little bit of a potty mouth when I get like this!

Nicole - I love the pics girl. You look amazing and I can only hope to get there sooner than later

Tamra - cabbage Soup diet? stay close to the bathroom LMAO

Captain Mo' - I am so ready for a fill too but Doc Fisher said 12 weeks! UGH!! I've gained 3lbs so I started running again this week and back to the Atkins fat fat but I can't seem to stick with it.

LET ME JUST MENTION BEFORE I SIGN OFF THAT I WILL ABSOLUTELY NEVER EVER BE A MATRON OF HONOR AGAIN! AT LEAST NOT FOR HITLER!!!!!!

Candra - sounds like you had a frustrating day. I was maid of honor once, but it was pretty low stress - I only remember dress fittings and helping set up the hall before the wedding - none of the drama you are having to go through. Gonna miss you tomorrow.

Nicole - what a great picture of you and Auds - I need to make an appt at Penney's to get our pictures taken - we do it every year - I can only hope ours is half as good as yours.

Way to go Pat - woo hoo !

I have lost track of all the new friends we have on here - maybe after I meet some it will make sense.

Hey there everyone, gosh I'm physically and emotionally drained. Work is kicking my butt. Monday starts our big exam for the students. Anyway, we hired an assistant about a month ago and she was diagnosed with breast cancer last Friday and now found out she has to have a mastectomy. So on top of it being a really sad situation I have to do her work and mine. I spent all yesterday crying with her. We never know what life will throw at us.

I'll be really glad to see you all tomorrow, walk and talk. Oh did I mention I'm sippin on a glass of my favorite Merlot? Maria when you need it you need it :thumbup:

I'm cutting this short...hope everyone has a nice evening and again can't wait to see you all. And like Donna goonna miss those who can't make it.

Hi Pammie - yeah, I'm tired of this whole thing - I don't understand this process she's going thru - I really don't want to go to this bridal show tomorrow - we've already booked and paid the deposits for the venue, and all the vendors (florist, caterer, photographer & bakery) She already bought her dress and we have all gotten ours except for me because I plan on being smaller by next July but not sure how much smaller - SO, WHY DO WE NEED TO GO TO THE BRIDAL SHOW? There is nothing left to get/do?

      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.
