UH OH.... the fur is going to fly tonight!! I would come unglued, too!! I think the puppy would be looking for a new home!

I was going to go to the gym this afternoon with Tracy & Alisha, but it's so cold out... I couldn't make myself go out again. AND.. they are going late tonight... like about now, and it will be crowded... and it's my first time. So I think I'll just go by myself in the morning. Found out at my "personal trainer" appt that the guy who showed me around last week is the owner! just a young guy... thought he was one of the trainers! Tracy's one day a week job has turned in to just about full time now! She is filling in for a lady who is in ICU, so I'm thinking this may last through the end of the school year! So.. I may be going by myself most of the time because I don't want to go in the late afternoon.

I don't know what is going on, but feeling sick every time I eat for the last three days. Maybe a touch of the flu?? Problems with reflux, too. But that's been going on for a couple of weeks. Not fun.

Well I'm Home - Andrew has called the carpet pple to come and fix the carpet - Hopefully it can get stretched - it's not that bad but bad enough..

Phyl - Think you should call your lapband doc - something is irritating your stomach - you have had alot of stomach flu lately and that's not normal.. Do you take a daily priloce (sp) zantax kind of pill - have you been tested for ulcers ( I don't know the name of the virus it starts w/a p) You can take a certain antibotic for it - I don't think you are too tight cuz you haven't had a fill in a long long time - I think you need to get your tummy ck'd out - do you eat chewable pecid when you get heart burn/reflux ...

Ya I would go to the gym in the a.m. - heck for you 5 p.m. isn't going to work - you have already had your cocktails by then - The morning will be a better time for you - just like when you are here - you go to the pool in the mornings..

Ok Karla - DD#4 - If she doesn't come home again and doesn't call to tell you she isn't coming home she can move out... She should at least say - Mom I'm going out - don't think I will be home tonite - that way you don't worry..

Is she still going to school didn't you say something a while back that things were going well that she wasn't passing her classes - Does she have a part time job??

Yes - Why was the Ben & Jerry's even in the house.... I bought trail mix saying oh just a little bit - well we all know how that goes - like we can just have 1 little halloween candy bar and be happy - nope we eat the whole bag - so you just have to throw it out - and then next time you won't buy it - cuz you know you will have to throw it away and then you will think - oh I am not paying $10 and I will end up throwing it away..

if someone comes to the nursery and wants a big tree like that - take their $$$ and tell them when one of the guys comes you will get it moved - but that you can't do it buy your self - cuz you can't - gosh you are hard headed..

Hum, Phyl, ulcer? are you taking a new med? food allergy?

I deserve the ass-kicking. I'm tired and when I'm tired I eat. I did check out my CPAP and my apnea is down to 2, huge decrease. When I did the sleep study, it was 56 to 100 per hour. Got it down to about 5 with the CPAP, now down to 2 with the weight loss. The resperatory theropist says that I can try to wean myself off. But I'm affraid to. Plus let's get real, I love the white noise and the moist air.

Power was off most of the afternoon so got a few boxes unpacked. Wind blew over 4 powerlines and flipped a semi. I figured I'd be out of power for days but they must have gotten a temporary line up. I sure hope the semi driver is okay.

Had a knockdown drag out with DD#4. So tomorrow we are sitting down and writing house rules. If she doesn't follow she either pays rent or leaves along with her dog.

DD#5's dormroom mate got caught with alcohol so DD also got a disciplinary notice and has to go before the dorm board. She has moved out of the room and is staying at the 'innervarsity' house, the campus church group that she belongs to. Don't know if DD was aware of the alcohol or involved, but hopefully she learned something from it.

Need to find some dinner of sorts. Had a piece of cheese and 3 crackers when I thought the power was going to be out. So I don't really need anything. I think I will go for another latte instead.

Well best get busy...on something. TTFN

Hello. I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Stephanie and I live in the middle of nowhere Montana. I used to be a part of this really great LBT group. For some reason I just can't seem to get back to them. I'm such a bad friend. Anyways. That's me!

It's been crazy around here but really no excuse. I have time for Facebook, I have time for you guys! I love you all!

Had a really good time with Candice and Peter. What an amazing couple! Jeff just thought they were the greatest!!! Sure wish they lived closer. I'm sure Karla and Phyl felt the same way. It definitely made me super excited for July!

I don't know what you guys have talked about for food for that time, beside Phyl doing the shopping, but I was thinking maybe each of us could take a day and make lunch and dinner that day with our favorite recipe. We could pair up or whatever...like Rose and I could do one day or whatever. Then Phyl could do the breakfast/coffee/staple stuff and then we wouldn't have to worry about her spending more than the $200. Personally, even if she doesn't spend it all, I think she should get the deposit for all the rigamarole that she's gone through for us. ... just my thought.

Karla, your dd's are being very toxic for you right now. Do you think that maybe they are taking it out on you for selling the house? They sound very passive aggressive right now. Like they are making you PAY for something. You definitely don't need that. No matter how tough you want to be, they keep pushing and pushing until they watch you crumble, either by giving in or getting upset. It's so tough for you. I'm so sorry. Hugs to you!

Janet, the puppy! OMG! I just don't know what I would do. Hard not to be mad at the dog, but it's not his fault either. GRRR!

Okay....off to do a bunch of stuff for the day. Love you ladies!

Hey Gang!!!

Back from my day w/debbie and her DD - Didn't buy everything I tried on - 2 pairs of carpi's 4 tops 1 sundress - Sears had great deals - burlington coat factory too -

Alot of stores are gone from the Moreno Valley Mall - Wasn't that great - I think we spent most of our time in Sears - Got a Dr Rey bra - I liked Macy's a little diff than ours... But again mall wasn't what it was 8 yrs ago

Candice - You owe us money - cuz both Phyl and I said that you would be getting a bigger rig ;0)

YES, we are selling it when we get home.... Peter hates how it handlesas int eh WIND... and we`ve had a lot of wind,,.., now as Earl pointed out when you have a TAIL wind its great, but 3/4 of the time its blowing in the wrong direction!!!

Glad you had a great time visiting Steph..

Karla - that's why I play farmville on FB so much - mindless work..

Phyl - I have a b of a visa - it doesn't do that - that would be nice cuz I do use my visa for car repairs - travel - dogs etc - it would be nice to know where the $$ went - but I did that cruise - Canada - tires - brakes - etc.. it wasn't all clothes :0)

I dont get miles or anything - I may look in to the American express..

Well gang - i'm pooped it's almost 10:30 been up since 5 - going to go veg and hit the hay shortly talk to you all in the a.m.

Karla, is DD4 Ailisha? the girl I met... I am getting confused... I thought DD5 was the tiny one???

Had a knockdown drag out with DD#4. So tomorrow we are sitting down and writing house rules. If she doesn't follow she either pays rent or leaves along with her dog.

DD#5's dormroom mate got caught with alcohol so DD also got a disciplinary notice and has to go before the dorm board.

So we will give it another try...

Seem to be getting an extremely small handle on my house, I can even see the counter. Still not close to being done, but trying to work for an hour each day after work.

My vacuum seems to be giving up the ghost, so what brand do you guys like. I need a canister type that I can use on stairs. I've never had carpeted stairs before. When I'm rich and famous I am going to tear all the carpet out and put in laminet, but I have to get $$$ first. The hoover windtunnel canister seems to have good reviews.

Hey Gang

Karla - I just got a dyson roller ball one - but it's$$$ and can't say it's better than any other that doesn't cost so much

Steph - We Love you !!!! You are right about the dog - it wasn't his fault - Andrew now knows that he can't leave the dog in the house when we aren't here - $100 he's going to have to pay to get the carpet fixed..

Candice - I think this rving is turning you in to a lush !!! You didn't drink this much at home.. lol..

Phyl - how'd the gym go..

Well it's 8:45 I gotta go eat - CB in the a.m.

Love & Hugs

Did some time on the recumbent bike but really need to have someone show me how to work the machines. Everything all computerized and I couldn't figure out how to program the thing. Got it to function, but never did get it to track my heart rate. My watch will take my pulse... when I stopped it was 127, so I think that's about right. Trainer wanted me to come back tomorrow.. said I couldn't, but after trying to use the machines on my own, I thought about calling him today to set up an appt and skip Primetimers. But... Earl wants to go to costco tomorrow after Primetimers, so I didn't do it.

Phyl, have Earl drop you off on the way to costco. Have the session with the trainer, you will enjoy the gym so much more if you know how to run the machines.

Frigid today, can't seem to get warm!!

Got my first watermelon of the year, not as sweet as I like, but watermelon is my favorite. So between the strawberries & watermelon, I'm set.

Tired again today, my eye's don't want to stay open, I'll go my B complex shot this morning & see if that helps. Otherwise I'm going to have to come home & take a nap. Have a hair appointment with a new beautician. The lady who's husband replaced my roof.

Well best get going, going to be running late, check in tonight. May have to come home & take a nap, TTFN

Good Morning Gang..

Phyl you are our computer person - I am surprised you couldn't figure it out - I usually hit manual and enter age weight and time and then it will tell you how many calories you burn - yep 127 was a good heart rate - there should have been handles you hold to give you heart rate.. You just need to go ask the pple wandering around who work there to help you.. The equipment can be intimating - yesterday a guy next to me couldn't figure out the treadmill - a guy who worked there came to help him - it wouldn't start - well the safety plug was out - I said put that there - and we laughed - I said I should get paid as I new the equipment better that the guy who worked there..

Karla - I have a watermellon - got it at costco last week- it's ok - not great - I hate when I get one that isn't any good - they say you can take them back - but hell that's too much trouble..

Got some sad new this morning - my gf Kathy's (Joseph's godmother) Father passed away - the Williams had 8 kids we lived across the street from them - Mr. William owned a mens store - he was such a nice man - I remember him playing monopoly with us - even with 8 kids there was always room for one more - I was always at their house and would go on vacation w/them.. Lovely family....

Well time to jump in the shower...

Well, have a good day everyone!<<

Phyl congrats on joining the gym... you rock!!

Karla, the unpacking will happen... Make a LIST and attack it ROOM by ROOM.... its better that way cause then you at least have one SANE room to live in... and GET those daughters to DO SOME OF THe dAMN WORK...

      Hey everyone!
      I’m new here! Looking for some friends! 🥰

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

      3. Doughgurl

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
