Well, except to go in the cuzzi...it was a great day! I am *thinking (don't get too excited) about going to the gym after school. It is sooo hard to go after so I will wait and see. Waahhh...can't I just be skinny and healthy and skip the gym.

We don't live near each other but have been bff's since 2007. We are preparing to meet for the 3rd time next month!! In many ways, my violets know me better than people I see daily. These are true "sistahs" and we've seen each other through many ups and downs. I wouldn't trade my girlies for the world. We were just in AL last June...all of us...the day Michael Jackson died.

Good Morning!

You know that is so strange Pamela that you say that because I was just talking about that the other day with a customer, I said a bunch of us were getting together and we all finally got in one place, and either you or Laura got a text that said he died and Michelle turned on the tv.

I was looking online for some clothes and found some gold lame stretch capri pants, they were very shiny and very stretchy, I didn't get them, I figured they would look to stunning on me, but if one of you all would like to get them roamans has them.

I tried on capri pants and I can't wear a size 3x too tight, so looking in catalogs and online.

Worked yesterday on a project I am working on.............Seems like I should have gotten more done!

Sheeeeesh, Blue.. if you read our posts everyday, you need to be posting here too!!!

We are from all parts of the U.S. and the band brought us all together. I know lots about these ladies and I'd be willing to share all their secrets.............errrrr, I mean..... la la la la la. I'm the golden oldie of the group. Kinda like their designated Gramma.

Janie... gold lame?? It doesn't get much better. People of Walmart wear that a lot. Got to get me some for the wedding.

Michelle... your happy pills certainly have not had a chance to kick in fully yet. Give it a little more time. Usually it takes 6 weeks to feel the effects. It hasn't been that long, has it??

I'd write more, but I'm still reeling from the news about Michael.

Gah! I have missed so much! MJ died?

No, but seriously... I'm so behind. I skimmed a few posts and my boob pic kept popping up. I never even noticed it! That's my aunt and she's just very "relaxed" shall we say? Lots of yummy spiked punch at the shower, lol.

So I've been crazy these past few weeks. I think its only gonna get worse? I have so much to share. I will get on tonight after I come back from dress shopping with my mominlaw

LOL, I have been away for a bit but am back. Trying to play catchup on posts but ran out of time.

Haydee, I saw your engagement pics and they were wonderful. :0) As far as your last post, there is a boob pic popping up on posts? I must have missed that one, lol.

Pam, thanks for the message on FB. I have been sooo busy lately I haven't been able to keep up with everything.

Laura, I am happy you made it to Vegas. I had to laugh with your comment about how wheelchairs make everyones rear at eye level. It just never occurred to me. I hope you are feeling much better. Also I loved Carson's birthday pics on FB. :0) The cake turned out great and I love that you were all wearing veggie tale shirts.

As far as the question a few pages back about getting Ayla to take the Augmentin . . . I never discovered a good way to give it to her. It was a knock-down, drag-out battle everytime. The only thing I did learn to do is to leave the edge of the syringe in her mouth until she swallowed or else she would purse her lips and spew it all out. The worse part is that the dose size means you have to give it to her several times to get a dose in, twice a day for 10 days . . . we all hated it.

Judy, I am happy the cortisone shot gave you such great relief.

Everyone else, hello and I hope you are having a great week. I will probably have more to say once I catch up on the posts I missed. :0)

      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.
