Hi again

Suzanne - I will keep you in my prayers that it is all a big mistake

So I've been waiting for 3 months for this stupid dietician appt and my alarm just went off, it was at 9, I never set my alarm for the time of theappt. What the heck was I thinking? I'm so angry. I scheduled an appt with the nutritionist for next monday. I'm not new to her so I can get right in. I have my fill appt on 12/10 so I need to have all this stuff documented so I can get my fill.

I'm so mad at myself! Well, guess I'm going to have Breakfast. UGH!

Suzanne,m I am so sorry to read of your new developements on the Xrays! That is so unacceptable for them to say they tried to contact you with such serious information!

I too hope and will be praying that it is just precaution, and nothing to worry about. Since this has all been documented, and you currently must monitor your health, will this be covered under the same insurance benefit?

I feel crappy this morning, my head is splitting, and it is cold outside---- 17 now, so I set the timer to remind me to go start my car in advance, I always forget until I walk out and see the frost, or have to climb in and sit on that cold leather. I will never again have leather seats! I did not order this one with them, we bought it the way it was.

Newspaper never got delivered this morning, I feel like my schedule is all outta whack!

Still cannot get my wedding rings on, I got several fire ant bites on my hand, 2 of them on my ring finger---barely with the help of cooking oil got them off! Wearing an old band I had, my fingers used to be this size all the time!!! LOL

Feeling very unsettled going in to work this morning, like I am waiting for the other shoe to fall. I do know I will not take much crap from her!!! I will walk out!

Crap battery was dead, now I am, late!!

Jen-map? Mt? Hike? Did I read that right? YOU GO GIRL! Yup you read right. I'm going to the Adirondaks to hike Hadley Mountain. Google it, Hadley Mt. Lake George NY, it is a beautiful hike.

Have a great day everyone! I will check in after all of the errands. Shopping, booster shot for dsd, pay bills...fun fun fun.

Have fun, I'm eating breakfast and going to shower, tan, go to the gym, and work off some of my frustration!

That is horrible! I hope the swelling goes down soon, but nice to know it is very temp, that must be a nice reminder of how great you are doing!

Jenn, you need to tell us more about this hiking thing. That just sounds like so much fun. I love to hike.

Kat, I will never own a car with leather seats. I've burned my legs to many times getting in on a hot sunny day with shorts on. Bummer about the alarm not getting you up in time to start the car. You need to get one of the car starters. I had one on my last vehicle and I miss it alot. Hope all goes well with the job today.

I've been a busy little bee on my day off. Just finished mopping the kitchen floor and letting it dry good before I put everything back. Went and gave my blood, worked out, took the truck and went and picked up a shelving unit, laundry, potted some new plants and I'm sure there are a few other things I haven't mentioned.

I'm at about 300 calories right now. I need to figure out what is for lunch.< /span>

Make it a good one.

Well Kat, I don't know whether I should be happy for you or sad. I'm hoping it's happy. But I'm sure you will miss the paycheck. Glad we will have you around here more.

Hi all,

I'm in such a funk, but going to a jewelery party tonight, don't have to buy but they are making me go be social. Can't wait. So depressing during the day.

Kat - Are you happy? I know the stress of that place was nuts.... so I'm happy for you!

Suzanne - up in the Adirondaks, 45-90 mins away from me are great mountains, I've seen great pics and wanted to go but never felt like I would survive it... Well, I'm going. Hadley is about 2 1/2 hour hike. I will post pics. I think I'm going alone. I just need to enjoy life and get my head clear, so I'm going to do it. Next week when mom gets back from AZ we are going to hike Buck Mt. near Hadley but trails are a little rockier, so I don't want to do that one alone. I am really excited! I use to be an outdoors hunting, camping gal, and I lost me. I want me back

All in all I am happy about the change. The Dr. called me today and wants me to come in and talk to him, I am going, simply because I don't think he EVER gets the full story, I think she censors EVERYTHING!! So I plan on going in and speaking with him, even asking him for a letter of reference, in case I should want it. But I will not allow him to talk me into returning with her in charge, as it sits now, I am entitled to unemployment, and they both know it! To go back and it be miserable I would lose that option if I were to quit.

DH is happy, he has wanted me to quit, or simply to change jobs, he is not against me working, he is against it making me unhappy. So....... will take a few days to assess my next move, apply for Unempl. and go from there.

I told Rick this morning, I felt like I should be sad or emotional, but I only felt relief. Guess that should have been my clue!!! LOL

Well I am going to finish dinner, a real live home cooked meal, not quick and easy or fast food, my hubby will be shocked!!!

Coupons? Did someone say coupons? I am new in the coupon world but I saved 25 bucks on our grocery bill today and felt like I had conquered the world! I am SO proud of myself. Any hints on where I can get some would be greatly appreciated. I already use coupons.com but that is it. Any advice?

Kat-GOOD FOR YOU!! I know how relieved you are! Congrats to you! :tt2:

Hi everyone! I have been so busy the past few days I have really neglected the homeless :blink: DH starts days tomorrow so I will have some peace & quiet.

I will talk to you all in the morning! :biggrin:

Hi. Checking in.

Still sick.

Kat, glad you're home. Congrats on getting fired today!

Jen, hike sounds fun.

Suzie, prayers are with you.

Hi to everyone.

Hardly ever use coupons. :w00t: They never have any for stuff we buy. Or, as what happened this Sunday, save 20 cents but only if you buy TWO! NOT! We don't go thru the stuff fast enough and we have no storage for the stuff that would last, like mayo. DH did use one today when he went shopping. It was for medicine. I didn't have to buy TWO! And saved a DOLLAR! Coupons drive me nuts!

Off to bed soon. Everyone else is already down. DD had trouble. I went ahead and let her fall asleep on me on the couch. I just tucked her in again. Hopefully she'll stay asleep tonight.

Have a good night y'all.

      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.
