Here is a story for you....try to invision this: At 7:30 this morning I called Southern Dental and got an appointment for 7;30 so I rush around & get dressed and my dh brings me in. I sit there (in the room by myself with no clock) waiting. They do x-rays...try to talk me into a root canal, and then 1 hour later they deaden my mouth and inform me that I am not going to be able to have nitrous oxide! I sit ther with my dead mouth and waited, and waited....then the girl comes in and says my dh had asked how I was and I thought to myself so its not just me, I must ave been in here a while....I cried and cried and then thought WTF am I doing here? I got up, dead mouth and all, and walked straight out of there biotching the whole way out...I call my dr that I have the appt with next Thurs and told them the whole story and to make a long story short, was able to get it pulled by him today. He put me under with IV sedation and the rest is history....God I love IV meds :car: Plus it ended up being cheaper...So, other than being numb, I am pain free!! Thank you al for listening to me whine and cry through this ordeal. It sure has kept my mind off the scales though!!! Love ya'll.... Excuse any typos....

OMG-so much for waiting until next week for my tooth yanking...I am making it my mission in life today to find a dr with a heart that will do it today....wish me luck!! I am hurting SO bad! I can not let the sun set today with this tooth still in my mouth!!

<p>Since everyone is in the "giving out of the cell phone number mood", here is mine (Cingular, the new AT & T) </p> <p> </p> <p>Just remember I am central time...LOL</p>

Pamela-I would do the show too, bt I would not be able to stand being away from my dd that long!! If I were still single, I would be all over it!! Good morning everyone!! Just enough time to wish everyone a great day!!

Judy...I didn't mean to call you a "nut" LOL but if the shoe fits.... :peep:

Laura-congrats on the -50. That is so awesome!! Terri-I think you are right about eating with the antibiotics. I need to make sure that I do that. Great idea about asking for a referral. I will get on the phone first thing in the morning and start calling around. The only thing I hate worse than dentists are new dentist and bad dentists!! LOL I feel alot better right now thanks to darvocet... Kat-I wish you could go to the dentist for me since you have so much experience in that area!! Jennifur-how close are you to onederland....wanna race?:heh: Just joking. I am gonna have a tough time breaking this plateau. But you know what? My new size 12/14 a** is ready for the challenge!! Pamela-I miss BB already...:think TracyKS, Michelle, Denise,Haydee, last nut not least... Judy- :peep: BOO!! (I just wanted to use this character...too cute)

Thanks for all of the concern ladies. I just found out that the dentist I like can't see me until the 4th of October....are you kidding me? I feel like I have smashed in the jaw with a sledge hammer....to top it off I feel like I m gonna throw my guts up. Graphic I know, but that is how I feel. I gotta go....

Terri-you are right about the 50,000 mile maintenance. Yes another staph. I am on antibiotics for 20 days. I have my well woman check up tomorrow, but since I am not "well" I will probably make it for next month when I am off the anitbiotics. Root canal....well the first and ony one I had was a total nightmare, the are very expensive AND I ended up having to get the one with the root canal pulled anyway. Just looking furtherdown the road and trying to spare myself some pain and money....not to mention I am a big baby and the thought of doing anything at the dentist makes me physically ill. I am falling apart. Pamela-I promise to call you a "skinny biotch!". What is your goal to be in the "skiiny biotch" catagory? Good morning everyone...I am gonna drag my ailing a** to work now. I will check in all of you later. Take care!! Laura-restriction rocks, right?

Terri-I love the pic...I think like Laura you don't need surgery. But, I also believe someone needs to do whatever they feel like they need to do...so go for it!! Pamela-I knew I loved you for a reason!! Me.."skinny biotch" I love it. Thank you!! I wonder how Judy and her DH fills went.... I am thinking about a slight fill, and I do mean slight. I was so sick when I was too full. So maybe .2 cc I will have to give it more thought. Well, I have another staph infection. Maybe that explains my headaches? I am just praying it is anything but my tooth so I am grasping at straws. Everyone have a great evening!!

Kat-I am really glad I tried them on too. I am wearing them right now to go to work. I have put the scales away until the weekend just as Judy suggested. I agree with you about the kids running around with ice cream in your house....I wouldn't have done it either!! Good for you! Jennifur-I have been in 16W. They fit OK. So that is why I went and got the L (12/14). I started to get the regular XL 16 but I thought no, I want to get the smaller one for a goal. LOL Anyway, I love the fact that they fit!! Thanks! Laura-I have always been big too. When I said I do not remember ever wearing this size, I mean I really don't remember! I do not know if I ever did! You my dear will have the biggest success story out of all of us and I am SO excited for you! My dd is coming home today. I sure miss her. I am going to call my dentist today to see if they can do a root canal through my crown, if not they will just have to pull it. Yikes! Everyone have great day!

Hi ladies...thank you so much. All of you are so right (and I am glad Judy wasn't here in inflict bodily injury on me, lol) I knew that all of you would make me feel better. Thank you all so much!! So, I said I was going to buy something that was too small as a goal, right? Well, I bought some Jeans (the strechy kind) in the regular department, not the womens. I bought a 12/14. Got home tried them on to see how much more I need to lose before I can wear them....and guess what, THEY FIT!!!! woooooohhhooooooooooo Now, that is what I needed to make me feel like I am not doing this in vain!! OMG, I am SO shocked!! I can't remember the last time I was that size. Talk about a jaw dropper!!! :car: I will check back in later....thanks again everyone...I love you guys!!

Hi ya'll...:help::help::help: I am SO depressed.:cry I have cried all morning. I am at a major plateau and then to make it worse I am back up to 204.5 this morning. I feel like a failure. I knew that getting close to onederland I would hit a plateau, I just did not expect it to take such an emotional toll on me. My head still hurts, I know crying isn't making it better. I can eat literally one thing I am not supposed to eat and the scales moves up overnight. I am going to try not to wallow in self pity. I am going to get up off this couch and go and buy something that is too small to wear for a goal. I know I can't let this get me down but sometimes (as you all know) it is difficult not to get down in the dumps. I will get through this and my violet sisters will help me, right? Can I hear an AMEN?

Good morning everyone! I feel like I have been on a 3 day drunk. My dh and I went to the casino last night and did not get home until 3:30 this morning. I woke up at ten because I don't want to sleep the whole "momma weekend" away. I really do think that this headache is my capped tooth. Great, just wonderful..:sick..that sucks!! Now I am going through the indecision of pull or root canal? I would like to save the tooth, but hey, I don't actually eat enough anymore to need that tooth to chew...LOL Since I just get off my TOM I am hoping to break into onederland soon. It on't be soon enough for me. I have been teetering from 202-203. I knew this would be a plateau....:straight Denise, thanks for the info on the liquid motrin!! Terri-congrats on your -30. You and Jusy are so close to your goal I'll bet you can smell it! Laura-I am glad that you came through your surgery OK. It was also good to hear that you did not have faulty equipment inside you! Sorry about your pain but now....scales watch out!! :ranger: OK, I need to stop doing ths and get moving and do something productive today. Everyone have a great day....

Hi everyone!! Congrats on the teens Tracy, that is awesome!!! Terri-I can not wait for cooler weather either. The low humidity in itself has been a treat!! My dd is at her mawmaw & pops house this weekend. I am sure she will have a blast. Now to figure out what I am going to do....something, I just don't know what yet. Jennifer-I sure hop you feel better soon! I feel bad for you! My headache has eased but I am scared to death that the crown I just had put on is going to require a root canal...I will just keep my fingers crossed and hope it is a sinus headache or something. KAT-I can still swallow pills. I did not want to be that restricted. (thank GOD) OK, question everyone...I know that we are not supposed to take anti-inflammitories, but, why not? I really really really need some Aleve...

Good morning everyone....TGIF I have had a headache for the past 3 days that just wont quit, so hopefully it will subside soon! Everyone have a great day! Judy??????

good luck tomorrow Laura!! We will be thinking of you! Hi everyone:youcandothis:Congrats everyone on your NSVs and scale victories!! I am so glad tomorrow is FRIDAY:whoo: Everyone have a great evening and I will be back at the butt-crack of dawn to post again....:eyebrows:

Good morning violets... I lol'd at my own post too. I am like Pamela, sometimes I crack myself up! Well, I am going to work now (to the placce where I am not trustworthy enough to order office supplies)....long story short, I work with a little nazi woman on a power trip that makes me a little bitter (if you can't tell). Anywhoooo..everyone have a great day. Pray for me to hold my tongue and not strangle the little witch....

After that last post everyone probably thinks I need a psychiatrist and not a plastic surgeon, hehehe

Hi all!! I know this is a bit premature BUT...I have been scouring the internet searching for the perfect plastic surgeon for my TT and wing removal....I found the perfect dr and he is in the medical center in houston. Well, long story short, after I chose him I found out thathe is the plastic surgeon on that show "Big Medicine" on discovery health. What a trip...I guess the research was dead on! Who better to slice me up? I a, thinking about just going for a consult at the beginning of the year to find out all of the specifics of what I need to do, how much more to lose, yada yada yada. Just the thought having the surgery and not needing a mirror to see my coochie is exciting.:omg: OMG did I just say thst out loud??:faint: Anywayyyyy....I on that note, I'll just leave now....... (am I the only one that thinks things like this?) YIKES

Kat-more power to ya girl...we are here for ya! Take care! Tracy-thanks for sharing the pics! You look so beautiful and all of you look so happy. Congrats! Pamela-I was surprised that Dick won...sorry the season did not go the way you wanted it to, but, there is always next year I am kind of curious to see what ends up happening with Nick & Daniele...if we even find out! Ms Jen-I am so sorry for what you & your DH are going through! You are in my prayers! You are right about the drinks having calories, but the hugs don't..so here ((((((hugs))))) Jennifur-good morning!! Terri-It is so great to have you back! Show us some pics from your trip!! We missed you and hopefully you catch up on the posts because we can't stop posting, its in our blood!! LOL Denise-at least the scales are going down & not up...that is the most important thing, you are doing great! Michelle-Boo! I see you lurking! If i left someone out it is not on purpose! Everyone have a great day and remember WWJD?!

Laura-I am so glad that you are gonna be all fixed up Friday!! We will all be there with you... I decided no on the house. We are just going to wait until next year and think about buying a home. I just hope I do not end up regretting passing this one up. Oh well, I am just going with my gut and right now my gut is telling me to take things slow. Pamela-tonight is the end Are you a Survivor fan? Everyone have a great night and I will "see" ya'll in the morning!!

LMAO Pamela!! That was hilarious!!! Just what I needed to see first thing this morning! I thought I was gonna choke on my coffee and shoot it out my nose! I needed that! Everyone have a great day!

Hi new violets!! So, I went to look at the house and the inside is nice. It is a good size house which is what we need and it has really been taken care of...BUT, I have only 2 issues I am dealing with:#1 The landlord wants 2,200.00 like now...#2 I have never seen a green bathtub & toilet in my life....and I mean green...do you hear me? GREEN..... OK, so I am sorry to any of you that DO have a green bathtub, really I am, I don't mean to offend anyone, but green? SO, I could make it work I guess, not given any other option in the matter. It would be different if it were a pretty color green, but it isn't!!! It looks like a martian threw up in there!! OMG, I guess I could overlook it considering I really like the house & location. What to do, what to do.... I will talk to my DH when he gets home but I think the woman must have smoked crack or something wanting all the money at once and she is not willing to prorate the rent even if we move in in the middle of the month of October. It would not be prorated until November rent is due. Good GOD.... I really want the house (with the green tub & toilet) but we will just have to see if the finances say its OK to do it. We could, but we would suffer for a little while and I can not eat bologna sandwiches anymore, so wtf would I do? Bologna with no bread, not even!!! I do not mean to make it sound like we are on skid row but yikes, I hate to part with that kind of money all at once, even when we go on vacation!! Something is telling me to grab it up, but something else is telling me to wait. I just don't know. congratulations tracy!!!!!!!!! May you have much love & happiness!!! everyone have a great evening!!

Good morning fellow violet sistas! I feel like Garfield....I hate Mondays. I will have lots to do at work and the only good thing about that is the day will go by quickly. We should hear something today from the realtor about the house we want to lease. I am very anxious to see the inside of it. I have a pretty good idea about what it will be like cause I could see through all the windows and I loved it from the outside so I am sure the inside will be just as good. Unless I walk in and just get a creepy feeling, which I doubt will happen, but you never know. I was talking to my 13 year old step daughter and said I wonder why it has not been rented yet? She said, "maybe its haunted"...LOL! I told her to not even go there cause I thought about it already...I watch too much TV I guess. Every have a great day and I will be back after work.... Shouldn't Terri be back by now? I hope she is having a blast!
