Hey, some of us have to work your know :rolleyes2:

Candice, penny rugs are easy! You can buy pre-felted wool, but it is pricey. Basically you cut circles out of felted wool, stack them up, and blanket stitch around them either by hand or machine. Then blanket stitch the stack to a foundation of wool. I will get some website addresses together and post them for you. Because I'm poor, I am going to use old wool clothing. Basically I'll deconstruct the clothing, wash the wool in warm to hot Water, then rinse in cold. The temperature change causes it to 'felt'. Then I'm going to play with 'acid' dyes from Dharma to over-dye some of them into the colors i like.

food was good today, not as good as Janet. I stepped on the scale and I am in a holding pattern, I'll take that!!! Now I'm going to move onto loosing again. As many bad choices I made, holding is 'damn' good. AND LUCKY. But it is time to get back into the groove. this time of year is always my 'crawl in a hole' time. So I'm sitting under my full-spectrum light. I just need to make it until March when I start working at the nursery again.

Going to go search for the websites, I'll be back! TTFN

Yep some of us work lol - even me who am on lbt too much during working hours - some days I have to work and not surf the net ;0l lol..

Phyl had a red hat lunch today - I saw on FB - so I guess she's feeling better..

Karla

Darhma (sp) like in Lost or Darmah and Greg lol...

I think I would do well w/o sun - but I don't know my DIL who is like me (grew up w/it 24/7) says she misses it - I know my DS loves the rain - it's something we don't get much of..

Well, I am off to the gym - legs tonite - haven't had prework out snack - so have 100 cal to spend tonite :0)...

So what does your Dr. Chilsom charge for a face lift? What about for a TT? Ah Phyl, it does sound like the FLU, take care sweetie!!! If you are throwng up and diarhea it might be the H1N1 so be careful:tt1:
Good Morning Gang

Phyl - Hope you are feeling better this morning...

Candice - I am not sure on Dr Chilsom prices $8 or $9 k I think - he only does faces - a specialty kind of doc which I perfer - that's all he does so he has perfected his art.

Karla - gf ya how would you be my nurse when you would be out exploring the rain forest lol :rolleyes2: Like that rug - sorry but I don't have wool - not much need for it here in the Desert :0) - doesn't get that cold :0)

Hobbies are good - keeping hand busy is great - too bad my hobby is reading - i love to eat and read - now it's popcorn instead of candy..

Last night started Tami Hoag new book - it's good..

I made a FABULOUS dinner - sprayed pan with a little butter pam - sauted cut up scallops with some garlic till almost done - then added 2 tblespn can't believe its not butter - add cooked shrimp and heated - added 1 oz of habenero cheese stirred till melted put it over 1/2 c rice - OMW to die for.. It was enough for 2 nights - I immediately put the other half up cuz I would have eaten it all..

Got up this morning did 30 min on my Wii - Love the skate boarding game & bicycling on the Wii Fit Plus.. I looked for a platform for the board that you use when doing the step exercise - they were selling it on QVC this weekend - but it was bundled with the whole balance board etc which I already have..

Well that's about it - nothing exciting - I am the only team member of my team here at work today - hopefully the phones will be quite..CBL

May try to get back on my Wii. The more you talk about it the more I want to start using it again. Use it at home a lot, but in the RV there's just not much room, and the TV screen is so much smaller!

Reading a Nora Roberts book... Blue Smoke. I don't think I've ever read one of her books before... very good. Also have an audio book... listened in the car coming home last week, and when I volunteer in the activities office Wed. afternoon. Tortilla Curtain... it's a pretty good story, too. OH... and today I went and got a Riverside County Library card so I can download audio books!

Feeling MUCH better tonight. Decided to go to Water aerobics this morning even though I still felt yucky... bad headache up the back of my neck. Almost quit after first 15 minutes, but kept on going. Then decided I'd quit at the halfway point. Then decided... oh, what the heck.. may as well just stay until it's over. So I did.. Aggravated the headache a little, but relaxing in the hot tub for 1/2 hr helped a lot. Then went to Red Hat lunch. Still had headache when I got home, but not bad. It did feel Great when I sat down on the couch and put up my feet for the first time since this morning. Didn't realize how tired I was. Then a couple of Ibuprofen and the headache finally went away!! Yippee!! Still feel kind of worn out, but so much better than yesterday and this morning!!

BEAUTIFUL sunset out my window right now!!

Should go out and take a picture!!

Phew...I survived the day in tact and even better...without eating a single piece of non-planned food!!!! I stayed on plan all day. We are having baked macaroni and cheese for dinner....though most of the "macaroni" is cauliflower!

I'm starving and exhausted...for me those words can be used interchangeably! Work went pretty well. I staved off most of the painful hugs and had a nice conversation with my boss. He called the pompous English teacher a moron and said that everyone was going to get a dose of reality in the morning at our staff meeting. I told him I was very happy to see that he had "grown a pair" over break. Before you have a heart attack that I said that to my boss...I've said it several times before. :rolleyes2: This is our 3rd school and 4th year together!

Well I am exhausted so I'm going to lie down until dinner is ready. Then we are going to the gym. I don't know how far I will be able to go, but I want to go tonight.

Chat later

Phyl - Glad you are feeling better !!! Nora Roberts is good I have read most of her books - Blue Smoke was good - It's a movie on lifetime - lifetime has lots of her books made into tv movies - I LOVED the trilogy about 3 sister that were witches (good ones)- 3 Sister trilogy - I loved it - Really Really enjoy that trilogy -

http://www.noraroberts.com/books/trilogies.html

I also loved Carolina Moon - I have read so many I have to read the bio to see what it's about - I lose track and hate when I buy a book I have already read -

She also writes under the name JD Robb but those are sifi books and I don't like si-fi

That's an idea - go to the library to down load books - can you listen to them 1st - I might do that sometime... I think I can download to my ipod..

That's the reason on got back on my Wii - alot of pple got them for Xmas - and all the talk made me want to get back on it... It is fun - Not super exercise - it takes a long time on the wii to burn 200 cal like an hour - whereas I can burn 500 on the treadmill - but hell 200 x 4 is 800 more than sitting on my butt :0)

WTG girl - only eating planned food and I talk to my bosses that way too ;0)... How's the swelling ?? Take it easy at the gym.. I am starving right now too - not really too tired but am hungry - I am adding spinach to my dinner menu - but to me veggies are free foods..

Well back from the gym - got the few dishes put up - Andrew pissing me off just threw my clothes on the bed now they are all wrinkled..

My most fav book in life was Celeste DeBlase (she's dead now) she wrote a trilogy Swan Chance - Wild Swan - Season of Swan - they are romatic stories - Family saga - Oh I think I should order them and re-read them..

Tigers Woman was good too..

dinner was a bust.. had pork loin/beans/rice, stuck. I am out of yogurt, so tried a casadeea, stuck, ended up with popcorn and a piece of bread. NOT good choices. So tomorrow is a new day, and I'll make sure that my backup meal is in place if needed.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      3. buildabetteranna

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
