  1. Less sugar is healthier. If you're in a financial crunch, the ones you bought will be fine.. if your doc is against you having the sugar, try to return them? Are you diabetic or anything? Ideally, you want high Protein, low calorie, low sugar.
  2. Ok 3/4 SUCKED!!! I am so disappointed, this season seemed so good. David A. made me cry on his last song.
  3. I don't know how many of you actually look at blogs.. But if any of you care, I was bored tonight and did some fun stuff to my blog. If you're bored, maybe check it out.. Teehee. I made cornish hens & asparagus casserole for dinner tonight. The casserole, I looked up a random recipe, the one my mom makes I don't like. Now, asparagus is my fav. veggie.. and this casserole I made was nasty. Maybe I only like it plain. I eat it out of the jar, or fresh ones I like to roast with garlic.. The casserole had cream of mushroom soup, bread crumbs, and cheddar. Yuck yuck. 226lb!! I'm right around the corner from the 2-teens?! EGADS!! I tell you V's, I swear if I hit the 100's, I will just keel over. I won't believe it. I am in shock everytime I hit a new set of numbers in the 200's. I could ramble, or I could close this now.. hah.
  4. Believe you me, I've been signing the petitions. It's our old white male congressman I believe.. I wonder what his wife says. First, sex toys were bad.. they are immoral. In 2007 Alabama. So they changed it to 'novelty toys'. Then, novelty toys were banned. So they changed the name to 'educational tools', and when you buy a sex toy, you have to put your name down (we all put Jane Doe), and mark a box saying you are ONLY buying it for educational purposes. Le sigh. It really is stupid, what's more stupid is that the votes keep going through. We all have been fighting it, who is this guy to say what we can do in the bedroom. Heaven forbid women make the most of sex, you know sex toys are something like 90% for women. This is a whole nother rant, I just can't believe my sister sits at the sex toy store all day smoking a hooka.
  5. They found 'human remains' about a mile from my house. Ew.. bones & clothing all they said so far. But due to gawkers, it took for friggin ever to get home from work today. And my sister is in the news tonight. Not for anything exciting, but of course the laziest person in the world sits around all day in a sex-toy shop, smoking a hooka with flavored tobacco. Only one there, and they are trying to ban sex-toys (or have, but you can call them 'educational toys' for now.. which they are trying to ban). So the news was doing a story on them, and my sister was there.
  6. I have had the kerplunk feeling, and it scares me. I'm afraid it means that the band is being pushed down (re:slip).

    I saw you post about Callie losing weight, so when I watched the first GE that came back, I paid attention to her body. I think she looks like she GAINED weight???? Remember when her & George were messin around, in bra & panties her body was pretty damn smokin'. Now with clothes on, she looks a lot bigger.
  8. I miss Suntra, although I saw her blip in for a moment a couple weeks ago. And Carlene.
  9. Hey Pam... In Florida, recently, a teacher was fired.. because he practiced "wizardry". He did a magic trick, and made a toothpick disappear. And he was called later and told he was fired due to his wizardry. Keep that in mind when you're dealing with PITA people

    I second this.

    Wow, cutting you out till you get your eating disorder fixed. Sounds like some real winners for friends you got there. Time to find some new friends!!!!!! And kudos on the raw diet, I know I couldn't do it. Reminds me of being a vegetarian, which I couldn't do either. I still don't get the mentality of losing friends as you lose weight. I never had any friends judge me or say anything negative about me getting WLS, they were all 100% supportive. Maybe the only difference is, I am the fattest of all my friends, so no one is jealous of me? Only thing I can think of, because when I hear people talk about their friends cutting them off, talking bad, trying to talk them out of it, etc.. I am just baffled.
  12. They are good for pre & post op ) The orange ones are my favorite, if they're the same ones I found. I don't remember the brand.

    I want super curly hair. I use to beg my mom for a perm growing up.
  14. If you can have soups, get the campbell's 'soup at hand' chicken & stars, heat it up and sip the broth out of the top. Is good stuff!
  15. Clicking brains are over-rated! "Stay safe inside insanity"
  16. Brandy - Actually I didn't notice that, but since I went back and read it, I thought it was 11g protein per pill, and if it was 55c per pill, that's not bad. But it's actually NINE pills = 11g protein & 55c. Still not bad, but I personally couldn't do 9 pills at once for just 11g of protein. So nevermind this suggestion!

    Love the new avie Terry!! I look at 'lolcatz' all the time, they are too funny. Saw this one, and thought of you all and the washing hands thing :thumbup:
  18. What are the new rep power numbers?
  19. I bought some, what I call 'hoochie' shorts a week or so ago. DH whistled in approval, but I said.. where would I wear these? Definitely not work, and would I brave public in such things. 2 are jeans, one is khaki and the last is brown. But none of them come more than like 2-4 inches from my crotch. In the past if I wore these, my thunder thighs made them ride up and disappear (eek!). Now? They don't!! I can't get over it, I wore them around the house a couple days, and found myself skipping, jogging, etc.. testing them, waiting for them to suck. Only suck part is when I sit down, they disappear lol. Anyway, I finally braved it and wore them in public twice this week.. and all was good! Point of my long story.. I'm wearing my hoochie shorts to Gruene. DH only likes to eat once a day, which really screws me up. If I don't eat but once a day, when I finally eat that one time I want to go overboard. I was up by noon yesterday, but was in bed till 4 watching tv and waiting for DH to wake up. By 4 I finally woke him up. He was hungry, so I made fish sticks.. I ate 2. But then I'm hungry an hour or so later. I didn't know what I was wanting, and I went grocery shopping on Sat. so I grazed really fierce!! Had a couple funyuns, couple pork rinds, couple ruffles with onion dip (mmhm, I like this stuff that goes down).. then I had 2 strawberries with a dollop of whipped cream. Hour or so later I had 2 dove caramel pieces...and a soup-at-hand chicken & stars (about half of it). Hour later, in bed again.. ate a few chicken n a biscuits. Healthy day right?! So I made egg salad wraps for our lunch today, packed it all up.. and forgot it!!! I forgot it because DH (and in this case it means DAMN) turned on an action movie at 5am!!! I think you guys know, I have a horrendous time sleeping. And then once I am asleep, it's impossible to stay asleep, every little thing wakes me up.. dog snoring, DH snoring, airplane going over, etc. So I have a routine, I keep comedies on the tv in the background, turned really quiet, just so my brain has something to drown out all the other noises. I've told DH in the past when he puts on like CSI or The Unit, shows with 'intense' voices and crap wake me up and make my heart panicky so then I am wide awake. Well some reason he thinks The 5th Element is a good thing to watch at 5am. The first 5 minutes there's screaming and screeching, so there I am wide awake at 5am. I cussed him out and stormed into the living room with my pillow & blanket. Didn't fall back asleep till about 7:40am and the alarm clock goes off at 8. So I am tired and cranky this morning!! Oh I am holding 228lb like a charm though, no more bouncing into 230's :wink2:) What's with new rep power numbers??
  20. Pam- Noo I wasn't at the track, I watch it with my mom every year. BUT we decided we're gonna go next year!! I think we may have a triple crown this year, Big Brown was smokin'!! I was sad about them killing Eight Belles on the track, but it ends up that's what they ALWAYS do if they get injured during the race.. kill them on the spot. They didn't do Barbaro because he was so famous (he would have won the triple crown too I think).. but eventually did have to euthanize him. It really was a buzz kill about Belles, I am glad I wasn't there, I'd probably have bawled, they do it right there in front of everyone!!! Me & mom bet on the horses on a website, I bet on Brown to win, and won $50. Wee. Hehe. Ok I don't normally have time on weekends to get on here, this weekend is no exception, dinner is burning in the oven as I type this!
  21. I eat the cheese in the chili, but I skip the crackers. At 2 weeks post-op I wouldn't be eating shrimp yet. It's not necessarily a stay away food, but it is a food some people can't tolerate (gets stuck, cause PB, etc.).. at 2 weeks you really want to avoid a PB.
  22. I don't like nuts.. but I had looked into them as a snack, because they ARE great sources of protein.. and Omega (good) Fats (I think that's the one). But when I looked at the little baggies, you can buy in bulk at Sam's Club.. calories are ridiculous!! The ones I saw were peanuts, a little bag, about 3in high, 2in across was 180 calories! Much rather eat peanut butter, but if you like nuts, I hear they are good for you!
  23. Hey V's, Happy FRIDAY!! Had some weird stuff going on at work today. Now I'm in the back, I miss all the fun stuff (boo), so I had to hear them re-tell the story. Employee office entrance is on one side of the building, where most offices are.. then there's a lobby entrance for customers. A lady walked in the employee entrance, and as soon as you walk in is a desk kiosk thing, where the CSR assistant works, doing faxes, copying, etc. This lady with a durag and sweatpants, bangs on the desk. Tells her, she's in advertising and needs the CSR assistant to walk her to the front desk. So she does, the lady grabs her arm and tells her she needs to call her ride for her, she needs to get to (some road down the street). Then CSR girl hands her the phone, and she refuses to call herself. So CSR calls.. then the lady says, "I need you to take me to (road) by 10!". Starts demanding she do it. Owner comes out, and is like what the hell is going on, the lady tells her, she is going to advertise for us. She grabs a handful of business cards and our free stuff.. notepads, folders, etc. Boss lady says "What are you going to advertise?" and the lady looks up at our logo on the wall and goes "PRINTING!!!!". LOL. I asked, did you tell her.. "Please don't". heh. So they finally kick the lady out and she goes "Well I'm keeping this stuff", and they didn't take it back from her, so now she's gonna be a nut at other companies with our info.. lovely. Can't wait to get those phone calls. Then when she leaves, her ride was in the parking lot the whole time. So we're trying to figure out what she was trying to do, or if she was really just a nut job. She did leave a business card of some wedding photographer she doesn't know, but does 'bad work' with the CSR assitant.. for some reason.

    2 weeks from right now, I will be landing in Texas! Fiending for a smoke.
  25. Michelle Wins!!! And I was bad bad bad tonight! I was eating homemade choco chip cookies, my gma brings them to my parents when we watch survivor. It started with one, then 2 more.. then 2 more.. and I lost count at some point, but went back in there several times. I don't know what happened, if I was just thrilled something would go down without a problem or the yummy goodness of them?! Bah. Good thing I didn't eat much today.. had some asparagus for dinner, and went to doctor for lunch.. so ate my calorie quota (or more?!) in cookies.
