Good luck on the house

Slept good last night - fell a little more rested this morning went to bed earlier ..

I hope they can make her responsible for the millions spent on the investigations and trial. You can tell that she loves all the attention, and no doubt will make millions on book deals and interviews. Such a travesty!

Hectic week. Not much down time, and man, do I sleep well when I can!

I only hope they PREVENT her from writing some trite book and making millions off of it!! That would really take the cake..

She should have to live in fear and seclusion for the rest of HER life...

Phyl

Candice

There should be a law that you can't profit from a story - but I guess since she wasn't found guilty the law wouldn't apply - it's up to us peeps to boycott anything she does - but if she's smart (which she isn't) she would dye her hair blond - get blue contacts and move to Alaska and change her name - cuz I don't think she safe or will ever have a life using her real name and looks - who would have anything to do w/her - she will be living in her own prison for a few yrs anyway - till pple forget

Hi! I am SO sick! Caught a miserable cold in eastern WA last weekend. Think either a waiter where we ate Sat. night or girl who made me coffee Sunday was sick. Jim said he saw one of the girls at Cider Works coughing and sneezing.... I got coffee there 2 days in a row and spent almost two hours up there one day using their WiFi. At any rate, coughing, head congested, sore throat, no energy! Cancelled two PT appts this week but went out to dinner last night because Chris & Kellie are in town for a few days. They made plans to go out for dinner with Jodie & Alan and that was the only opportunity to spend time with all of them because Jodie & Al & kids left for camping trip this morning. So, was feeling better yesterday afternoon, but, not a good idea because now I feel worse than before!

Yes, 4 years this month. I'm still down over 100 lb, but struggling. Sky Valley friend asked me on FB today about weight gain because her doctor wants to do some epidural injections for her back and he told her weight gain is a side effect because of the drugs they inject..... steroid, anti-inflammatory. So I 'spose that could be contributing to my wanting to eat all the time... like when you're smoking pot... they tell me! I'm back on the band wagon AGAIN, though! Been eating a lot of salads. Green Beans and our homemade spaghetti sauce for dinner, cut down Snacks and wine. No exercise this week is not going to help. Haven't walked in a few days... feeling too miserable.

Paid big bucks for American Idol tour tickets for tomorrow night, so hope I'm feeling well enough to enjoy.

Youngest son's birthday tomorrow too... 39 yrs old!! And a grandpa now!

Gonna watch "Coal Miner's Daughter". Nothing good on TV.

So is Casey the one whose little girl..."disappeared"? She says she thought she was with her parents or something like that. The girl wasn't reported missing for a couple of days? right? Yep, I'm in the dark ages.

Got my laminate picked up yesterday, when we were unloading it, I realized that two boxes were crushed, so now have to go back and get replacements. Got a portion of the gravel and rock down. Nope I'm not lifting. I have two buckets on my wagon, I fill those, then tip them over where I want the gravel. Is taking a long time, but at least I am making some headway.

Phyl, we have a pretty nasty grung going around here as well. I have been staying clear of anyone who is sick, not taking a chance. I have too much to do to be down.

Well, need to get outside while it is cool. check in later. TTFN

I agree, we need to boycott anything she produces... it reminds me of the O.J. book... disgusting

Janet, NOW I remember, but honestly I kind of keep my head in the sand. But I agree, she definitely killed the girl. God will deal with her eventually. I imagine the police and aterneies ( sp) are just sick. It would be enough for me to throw in the towel if I was them. What must her parents be going through. It sounds like they cared about the girl. Why didn't Casey just give her up for adoption? Nope Candice is right, there needs to be a campaign to bouycott any book she writes or interviews, etc. Like you said, the sad part is that she could totally confess to it now and no charges could be filed. Maybe the police are working on finding a different charge they could charge her with.

Janet, I am being supper careful, small loads and lots of back and forth. Also only working in the morning and evening. Hopefully in a couple of days I will have some pics to show you. I'll have to download my camera program to my new hard drive.

Congratulations ladies on being 4 years out!!! Keep it up. I know we get lazy about food, that's when I get in trouble, but you all are taking charge, GREAT JOB!!!!!!

OMG i love that guy"!!! ) , or quilting, or TV watching

I do some treadmill, then the recumbant bike for a couple miles... Today I got on the Eliptical, (I hate that machine) and did 10 mins... but it got my heart rate up so that`s all good.

Candice, what a gift you and the guys are! You make people laugh and fill their hearts with music. Life doesn't get much better! Great Job. ALSO Great job on the exercise and foods. Keep going!

Yesterday's food was okay. I haven't been eating enough Protein and it snuck up and bit be yesterday. Normally at lunch at work I have a Laughing Cow wedge with a couple of crackers and some fruit. Yesterday I had a huge craving for protein. So went to a near by gas station & deli and bought a chicken strip. I did peel off the breading and ate about half of it. dinner I came home and made a 'mexican pizza'. A flour tortilla with refried Beans a little sprinkle of cheese, onions and cilantro salsa. Tasted pretty darn good.

Work today and then need to weedeat the dog yard. then I think I will kick back a bit. I am a little tired, okay I am a lot tired.

I came up with a low cal iced coffee that it good. Strong coffee, splenda brown sugar, cinnimon, nutmeg, cloves simmer. The cool, pour over ice with a little skim milk. yummmy. Nice and refreshing.

Well need to get busy and ready for work. Phyl? Linda? What's up? Janet?

Yum, Karla... that Iced Coffee sounds really good! I am still drinking hot coffee, with my SF FF Coffeemate flavors that I picked up on my US trip...I've gone thru 1 whole bottle of my Butter Spray(fake) I love that stuff. Perhaps I can get Linda to bring me some when she comes to visit at the end of the month. Wow, Karla, you really don't eat much do you... I think I may go for a little "top up" in a week or two... I really needed that last defill as I was WAY too tight... now I am enjoying eating Fruit!!! Oh and strawberries this time of year are so good.

For lunch today I had 1 banana, sliced, 1/2 cup strawberries slices a handful of blueberries with GREEK SF Yogurt on top...oh it was so good... took me forever to eat it but was so worth it... about 2 cups of fruit I think, maybe a little less.

      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.
