Kaiser Richmond Pre-op

[MoniqueD 8]

Hi all!!!!

I have to admit...I am so proud of myself... Yesterday, I hit the treadmill and did 2.5miles... and I did it again today....I did 2.5miles and have walked 11,237 steps so far...I am wiped though...Maybe it will make up for the Margarita I had yesterday and the chocolate covered almonds I ate tonight... I plan to get on that treadmill everyday that I am off....

NEWS!!!! I WEASELED MY WAY INTO AN APPT WITH BOTH ROBIN AND DR WHO....I MEAN DR FISHER....

MY APPT IS JANUARY 4TH AT 8:30AM WITH ROBIN AND 9:00AM WITH DR FISHER....WHOO-WHOO!!!

I am so happy....I need this fill like never before... This is going to make me work harder to lose this 6,7,8++ lbs that I keep playing with...I need to break the 200 mark and enter Onederland by 1/4!!!!! That means I really have to watch it over the holidays....

Heather, welcome back!

Tamra-I'm ready to hit the gym when ever you are....Let's do this!!!!

Jes and all-I would like to get together with you all if we can agree on a good day and time...When is everyone free? It may be kind of difficult with the holidays....

Okay so my hand just hit something and I thought I lost my entire post....I'm posting now...I could say more.

Welcome back Heather - sure missed you but glad you had a good time.

Ok Riley - I just checked Yahoo and someone viewed my profile - what the heck - the guy's little profile says 57 yr old and then in his paragraph he says he is 53. His profile says his body type is average, but looking at his picture he has a gut on him - ok either he is lying or isn't very smart - doesn't know his age and is in denial that he is definitely a few extra pounds - which I don't mind, but let's be truthful. I put a few extra pounds on my profile. I definitely can't keep up with you though.

I had half a baked potato and 3 prawns for dinner. And then I just ate 4 bite size candies - so altogether not a bad day. All I am worried about right now is maintaining until after the holidays - and I won't freak out if I end up gaining a couple of pounds.

Gotta go check Facebook.< /p>

Pam, it just means he wrote his profile when he was 53, but Yahoo updates your age based on the year you were born. I think I wrote my profile a few years ago, but I don't put my age in it so it doesn't matter.

Riley, guys are strange. I met a man once, he said he was my age. This was about 10 years ago so he would have been late 40's. When I got to the restaurant, he was actually 62. I told him it was a shame for two reasons, 1. relationships are built on honesty and 2. I like younger men so someone that much older than me was definitely out. He said his friends told him to lie because women wouldn't go out with a 62 year old. Hah! now that I'm 59 I would.

Heather, welcome home. Sorry about that missed day waiting for the flight from He!!.

Monique, I want to make my pre-surgery goal by January 5th. Maybe we can do this together!

B. Protein Shake

L. spinach salad w/4 oz chicken, 2x2 brownie

D. 1/4 dark meat chicken, 1 wing, 1 apple

GHKWGHEWGHWEG 3 pieces of candy this afternoon

I was 232.6 on home scale this morning. down baby down

[Desperate1 1]

Glad you liked the cat Riley - so sorry bout #1, I mean #0 - how disappointing but i think the former #2, now known as #1 put a hex on it. have a good night and don't let the bed bugs bite LMFAO!

Monique - how did you get the apt with Doc Who? I was told there was nothing available - guess I need to call back in the a.m.

Heather - love that the best part of the trip was the plane seat belt - hahaha

Lee - you're a cougar - woo hoo! I think I would be too if I was single

Ok, so like, 3 of you have less than 10lbs to go - is that right?

I've been watching Robin Williams, at home ALONE and I just actually laughed OUT LOUD uncontrolably - he was talking about the stupid crap alcoholics say when they think they're cool - RE: pick up line: "are your parents retarded cause you sure are special" OMG, no he didn't!

[singand_dance 8]

Haha Candra, we watched his special in the hotel before we flew out.

I must still be on Hawaii time. I need to get myself to bed!

[Lee 19]

Good Morning!

Well, not so great, up one pound this morning after my indulgence yesterday. C$#%*%& 233.4

I'll look for that Robin Williams special. I love to laugh!

Ok, better choices for me today. Congrats to all you losers!

[smallerj 2]

good morning all, I feel you, Lee I'm up a pound too....I think my dinner last night was enough food for the whole day. very small portions but still, lobster, steak, spinach & baked potato. Wonder why I'm up a pound? Trying to romance the hubby, cooked a romantic dinner

I put my tree up last night, the kids were disappointed when I said I wasn't getting one so I buckled under pressure. What the heck Christmas is one a year. Good thing is it forced me to clean the dinning room to make room for it.

Welcome back Heather! we want to see pictures. Tamra you are rockin yea. And Miss Candra call the good Doc Who this morning.

Riley I started crackin up when I read your description of the former #1. Too funny.

Ok ladies let me get my day started... elliptical time.

[Canolie 0]

Congrats Monique you can do it...!!

Yes Ma'am Candra..... Yes Ma'am hehehehe...

Have a great day everyone!! I am not awake yet lol...

Heather LOVE the pics..... YAY

[riley4183 0]

Yes meeting the former #1 was an epic fail! LMAO - but not at him. Now I understand why he kept delaying our meeting - he knew. It was just SO dissapointing!

Things are all still good with new #1 tho. Four days in a row! We had a little slumber party last night :-) He gets his 10-year-old back today so he won't be over again until Christmas eveing. I am needing this break - I might actually start missing him if he'd stay away for a couple of days!! Ah jeez I don't know what I want.

I guess I have to pull my head out of the sand and finish my Christmas shopping now! What to buy for my old boys . . . .

Pami I think they put "average" because they figure that the "average" person of their age has some gut! I am trying to stay open on mine but had to lower the top age. Still, I keep getting viewed by guys in their 60s - new #1 is 44 and I tell you what, I am getting spoiled & don't want to go older than me now, LOL. Oh he is on Yahoo personals too!! My profile is crazy but effective if you PM me your email I will send you my profile. I have actually lost weight since all my pics that are on there (except the Christmas gold dress one), I claim "average" because I think the average american woman DOES have a few pounds to lose!! Maybe when I get to goal I will claim "fit" but with all this excess skin that doesn't seem right.

Hi everyone! Monique I am sorry that you are in band hell that is the same way I felt. I didn't even think I was going to get a fill since most told me it would be until 3 months but Dr. Fisher just said lets do a fill and I said YES!!! I had 4cc in my band already and he add 1 more. I know feel that when I eat to much a feeling in my chest and that tell me to stop.

[MoniqueD 8]

Hello All!!!

I am striving like Tamra! Hey girl! I plan to hit the treadmill in a few minutes and take my evening shower and chillax!!!

Beatriz-Thanks for the encouragement. I can't wait for the fill. How much did you lose post-op and before the fill? Have you lost any since the 1cc was added?

Mama Ash and Canolie-thanks for the encouragement, too! I am trying harder to stick to this....We are in this for life.

Tamra-you go girl...I am so proud of you.... Planning is the key for me too!!! I may make some Jello for later...

Riley-I am so happy you are having fun in the dating world...Yes, you may need to take a break...You sound so busy....I can barely keep up... and yes, us married people can sometimes be fun too! I would love to hang out with you all.. Just say where and when.

Jes-the romantic meal sounds so good. That may be our New Year's Eve Meal....If we don't end up going out.... Honestly, I am not pressed to go anywhere.... Everyday is a new day for me..LOL.

Candra-I called early last week and on last Friday and was told by Beverly that the January calendar was not out yet. She told me to call back this week. I called yesterday and spoke to Annabelle and I told her that it seems rather late for the January calendar not to be out as it is almost the end of December. She put me on hold and came back asking me when did I want to come...I was like, "Whoa!!!!" She said she needed to double check Robin's schedule and I could hear her speaking with Robin... She said she was squeazing me into the schedule.... Not sure if the calendar is our or what the heck is going on... She did offer me Jan 5 in Vacaville. Maybe you could get that appt.

Lee-yes, we can do this together!!! Let's go!!!

I know I'm forgetting some...I will catch you next time...I must go catch this treadmill while I am a tiny bit motivated......................................................:tongue:
