Gas was $1.99 here yesterday. Up early for my shift. Hubby isn't feeling good. Thinks he is coming down with a cold, so we may not be working at the hospital tonight. Have a great day and make good choices. That means NO peanut butter cookies.

Home from work. Getting ready to head to bed. Early start tomorrow. And I also forgot to give blood last week so I will have to stop and do that tomorrow also. I see that TracyKS posted on Facebook. I sent her a text but never heard back. Hope all is well with her and the family. I made excellent choices today and am hoping I can keep this up. I need to quit fighting the band. Everyone have a great evening.

Laura, sorry about your friend. She must be so distraught. Judy, Hope your friend is ok. Hope we hear from TracyKS soon. I'm off to work, see ya later tonight.

Judy can't get on here. I wonder who else can't get on here???

Good Morning Girls, I'm so excited and you'll never guess why. Can You guess????????????? Think about it. Only one week away from NO MORE POLITICAL commercials and phone calls. I can't hardly wait. I'm tired of this whole thing. We just need to vote and get it over with. Just think about all the money that was spent on campaigning. How many families could they be feeding or giving medical care to. OK, Where in the world is TracyKS and Haydee? Pammie? Denise? Jane, Your family is in my prayers.

Can you explain to me what Pepperocinis are? Ok, so I'm in the game. I start out with a Hot chocolate when I got up. Around 9am I had a bowl of oatmeal. 60 ounces of water. 3 lifesavers. And than I went to Mr Goodcents for lunch. I got a kids meal of chicken alfredo. I didn't even eat all of it. So I'm at the Doc's office with my sis and she had picked up a menu and I was looking at the calories. A full order of chicken alfredo is over 1200 calories. Great, just when I was thinking I was going to do good today. Hopefully I only got in about 400 calories, since it was just the kids meal. Blasted. I didn't even get a cookie in my kids meal. Just water. So tonight it's a baked tater for me. Have a good one.

Good Morning Violets. For some reason I woke up at 5am. I laid in bed for a little while. Now I'm drinking my Hot Chocolate. It's 33 degrees out right now, only supposed to get to 47 today. A new week, A new start. When you were younger. What was the movies that scared you silly?? Mine, "The Omega Man". "The Crawling Eye" and "Them". Jane, keeping you and your family in my prayers.

Do any of your Doctor's have a website that you can go to? Hopefully they do and you can get alot of questions answered. My Doctor has a wonderful website and list all the rules for us. There is also a web chatroom. Call your Doctor's office and see if they have one.

Back from the movie. You Know. I kinda liked it. I miss High School. Just taking it easy for a while. We leave in about 45 minutes. Have a great day.

Good Sunday Morning Girls. Denise, The one of Dimitri with his head in his hand is just too cute. Both of them are adorable. Leaving here in about an hour to go see HSM2 with the neighbors. Than Hubby and I are working at the "Worker House" today. It's a kitchen for homeless people and we help prepare and serve food. We went to Long John Silvers for dinner last night and I couldn't eat all of it. Yeah. I'm thinking my fill on Monday is working along with my head. I really need this alot. Everyone have a great day. Hugs to you all.

Info, I know you all want to get your protein in and that's important. But you also need to watch your fiber intake. I noticed that the EAS only had 1gram of fiber Kashi has 7 grams of fiber. Don't get yourself constipated. You won't like it. Maggie, You will be able to babysit. No problem getting back into life, just remember that you are still healing inside and be very careful about lifting your grandson. Keep doing the walking. I walk almost everyday plus I also work at a fitness center. Have a great weekend.

Maggie, Thank You. No I'm not at goal yet. I had a huge amount to lose. I'm looking at probably another 75 pounds and than I should be there. I know I have come along ways and I am so thankful for my Band. I'm very glad that I decided to have it instead of the RNY. That was not a good choice for me. I'm here to answer any questions you guys have, so feel free to ask me anything.

Lori, your strips and blood are normal. Just don't pick at them like I did. Your Doc will take care of them. As far as the gas, get yourself some Gas-X strips. They help out alot. And the walking also helps. Lifesavers or any hard candy should keep your mouth moist and your tummy pangs under control. Good Luck to you. I just had my second Bandiversary last week and I am down 170 pounds. If I can do it you guys should have no problems. Hang in there and just follow the rules and don't beat yourselves up.

Went to work out at Curves. Came home and did some housework and now just waiting till noon to go out and cut the grass. It's still a little to cool to do it now. We also have to go to Westlakes to get some weather stripping for the garage doors. Pam, That is one thing I miss. Eating sandwiches. I don't do to well with bread. And I have made the mistake about thinking I can wash something down with water. Nothing like spitting for fifteen minutes. As far as the pop goes, I don't drink carbonated drinks unless I don't feel good and than I do the 7up stuff. I don't have the shoulder pain with it. I just have the carbonation not going down thing. Beautiful here today so I'm hoping to enjoy as much of it as I can. Have a great day.

Haydee, Thought you might get a kick out of this. Donald Rumsfeld briefed President Bush this morning. He told Bush that three Brazilian soldiers were killed in Iraq today. The color ran from Bush's face, and he was visibly shaken. Bush composed himself and asked Rumsfeld, "Just exactly how many is a brazillion?"

I was free for you to call, TracyK. I actually had to drive to downtown KC around 9:30 last night to pick a friend up. But my phone was open all night. Don't ever think we wouldn't be happy to hear from you. I'm going tomorrow morning with the little girl next door and her Mom to see HSM3. Whippeeeeee. Not to much going on here today. Some yard work. Everyone have a great day.

Celebrate Good Times, Come on. We're gonna have a good time tonight, Let's celebrate. Way to go Kat.

Just stopping by to give my 2 cents. I see alot of you are talking about Unjury. I have never tried it but I want to let you know what I drink. I found that Kashi makes a drink and it's very good I have only tried the chocolate one. It's Kashi Go Lean and it has 29 grams of protein and 7 grams of fiber. I found it at a local health food store here in town. As you will find yourself eating less, you will not be going to the bathroom as much. You will have a tendency to get constipated. Becareful about this. Good Luck to all of you.

It's Friday. Sorry I haven't been around. I'm dealing with a little crisis with my Sister. Everything will turn out ok, just very stressfull right now. I did manage to make some homemade chicken noodle soup yesterday. I did real good on my eating till dinner last night. The soup was so good I had two bowls. Today I have to work for several hours than I'm going to see if the little girl nextdoor wants to go to the local Haunted House. It's not one of those big scary ones. This is a little tamer. The only other thing I have planned for the weekend is Sunday. Hubby and I will be working at the "Worker House". It's a place where we go and help fix dinner and than serve the homeless people. We do this about 2 times a year and absolutely enjoy it. I like when the little kids come thru. I always sneak them some extra dessert. Everyone have a great weekend. Hugs to everyone.

Good Morning. Sun is shining here and that's great. Now if would just warm up to at least 80 but I think it's only supposed to get to the mid fifties. Oh well. Pam, I wish that I was jessie's girl. Remember when he was on GH? He is such a cutie still. Gas was down to $2.27 yesterday. Nice for everyone. Doing laundry today and I'm going to make some homemade chicken soup for tonight. Have a great day and amke good choices. Remember it's CTCD.

Jane, you are too funny. It's the Tongacrap split. Actually it's the Tonganoxie split. PS, you look good in any color.

Good Morning, Up early for my Wednesday early shift. It's supposed to start raining again here soon. TracyKS, I don't follow the points because that is to much food for me. Unless I eat DQ. I mainly went for the support that I got. The band keeps me from eating too much and WW kept me eating the right foods. I tend to eat alot more salads and veggies when I do WW. I just was starting to have a conflict between the two and it was easier to stop going to WW than to have my band taken out.:grouphug:. Luara, What about the ringworm??? Terry, I would love to have the recipe too. Everyone have a great day.

Laura, did they give you cream for the ringworm? Or how are they going to treat it? I had a bowl of Tortill Soup from Taco Bueno today for lunch. I must say it was very good and filling.

Welcome back Judy. TracyKS. ??????????????????????? Poor Girl. You do need Calgon. Ok, I have made some decisions. One of them is that today will be my last Weight Watchers meeting. I had told myself that when I had lost 150 pounds that I would stop going. I do enjoy going but right now I have the Diet Demons going on in my head and I need to make a few changes. I'm going to the Doc's web-site and print out his band rules and post them on the Refridge. I'm going to start going to the support group meetings and I'm going to see about doing the Reboot Group thing. These little demons are running rampant in my head and I need to do something about it. They think they own my life and can make decisions for me. Well, they are not the boss. I am. I'm going to beat these little guys out of there and win. It may take me a little while but I will do this. I still do my walking but one thing I haven't done in a while is put my MP3 on and just let the music do it's thing. I need to get back to doing that. It seems that I can do alot of thinking when I have my music going. It helps me get ahold of my emotions. Wish me luck. Hugs to you all. And have a great day.

I was having such a good day so I should have known that my Doc appointment was going to suck. And suck it did. Well, not that bad. except for the weight gain. Everything else went good. It was suggested that I join the Reboot Group. :tongue2: So I left there and went to a friends that moved over by there. We had a great afternoon and enjoyed a little walk around the neighborhood. I pointed out the sumac for her so that she could keep the kids away form it. Very poisionous. Got hom around 7 and am getting dinner done. Jane, Why a ticket????
