Kat Yes, that is the only job I am going to apply for right now, and it is going to land me my dream job when I get it. I will be admin support to project manager and super on site, working with hot men in a trailer! Yeah .. bring it on! Seriously, it will make my school all worth it and give me the experience I need to be at the top with the boys.

LOL Kat Well, since being banded and drinking nothing for 9 months... I am done after 1 good mixed drink. My days of drinking straight tequila are done, I can't function the next day... now grape vodka and crystal light I feel great the next day. But if I was to do a shot of tequila it would be without the lick and suck. A totally girly shot... Buttery Nipple anone? they are so yumm

You gals are funny today my stomach hurts so bad. I am so bloated, wtf (i can still say it too ) is this ever going to go away? I did push it and go to the gym today. I was going to shower but i'm thinking.............. no... LOL I'm going to go outside and play with ds since it is 60 out and going to rain then get back to 40 tonight. Then i'm going to water aerobics at 6:30 and will have to shower again.. so why bother I'm going to do water aerobics again in the morning and work out then get my hair colored. suddenly groing at at out of control rate... come on, i'm not working, slow down, i can't afford you . LOL Went to do weights already, I'm putting my exercise challange to myself back up, I was much more accountable when I had to log it. Hey Tracyks - I hope to start swim lessons for ds this week for 1/2 session then the end of april he starts next level. We talked about Tbal too, but with not working and dd focusing on Cheerleading we decided to wait until next spring too. He loves tossing the football too so I want him to pick what he wants to do. Pop warner for his age is so cute/

I make my own Margaritas too- easy and so much better than the mix Pam - I use to lick suck and slam too... sad to say I've graduated and drink with the big boys - (I have a friend who is older and got me drinking straight on the rocks with a garnish of a lemon wedge)

oh... three olives, is that the one with the vines on it? The bars have that and it is so good, but UV Grape is good and very inexpensive so that would probably be the best

ok Terry promise this is it. I need a hotel with a bar on site.. doesn't seem like there is one in the hotels you gave me. Are there bars walking distance? Pear Tree seems close to lots of stuff

Terry Thanks, I was not sure where you were all coming from and was confused. Anyway, I'm going to book myself at one of the Mariott's and spend a few extra $ - they have the most comfortable beds i have ever slept in. and to me, after a flight that might push me over the edge... will be worth it. The one on the link is booked so I have to pick another one.

hey guys I'm going to BJ's tomorrow and I'm really thinking about renting a car. I was thinking for the night because i'm getting in on Thursday but I found a great deal with enterprise, and at BJ's I can get 1 day free so it would be dirt cheap. Can i get some input? Maybe I'll just get one for Thursday night and can bring the early SA People to lunch or something? or meet everyone in our final dest? Who is doing the early SA pick up. HELP???

Kat - when i freeze it, I usually put a bottle of crystal light in the freezer in the morning and by time I'm done with coffee and a shower it is slushy not frozen and if i forget i just take it out the next morning rock solid and let it sit and use it at my afternoon bottle. Grape Vodka works too :thumbup:

No NG without scope, Lap-Band placed _____, contact Dr Singh at _____ and there should be something about NO ..... (the ingredient in Motrin we are not suppose to take) I am still not keeping anything in me, but I'm able to drink water so I feel a bit better about "going down" but it was enough to scare me. I found a decent one online for $50 and it had a nice chain and clasp so I'll probably order that tomorrow Pam - 21 years to retire... hmmmmmm i have about 35 so I would happily take that. Hope you all have a great day, i'm off to shower and hit the gym

Morning girls i'm up after very little sleep - my back hurts so very badly out of no where. I am starting to have my belly hang different because i'm been getting rashes under it. Sorry, I know tmi. But for these reasons i'm going to start documenting this stuff, and maybe get something to take away the pain so i can sleep. Kat, if my lower belly wasn't so nasty I would be very happy with myslf, i don't want to be a size 6 - I'm older and realistic now with my goals, but I kind of ok with the rest of me, so i figure 15 more lbs and the other strange bumps that bug me should be gone. I had about 1100 cals yesterday and 70g protein - today i'm going to lower that to 900 and going to hit the gym. I may die in my travels but i'm going Has anyone considered a medical alert bracelet? Someone suggested it at our support group last month and after being dehydrated and sick Sat, I got really scared. I am going to get one. I sent an email to one of the girls who was at the meeting to gt what it should say, i cant remember exactally. Hi Michelle :cursing:
