    That is exactly how I feel right now. I feel like I am needing a fix of something, anything tasty. I know within 30 minutes flat I could have a batch of cookies whipped up and be sitting here with 2 dozen warm cookies and a big glass of milk but I also know that it would be a very dumb thing to do that I would regret immediately after consuming them. I am down to 206 now and if I eat junk tonight I will be right back up about 2 or 3 pounds again and I WILL NOT do that to myself. I would like to meet one person, anyone that may have said that WLS is the 'easy way out'. I wish they could sit here right now with me in this living room while they watched me agonize over wanting to eat junk. Then let them rethink their position on WLS being 'the easy way out'. I know I'm rambling but I need to:tongue:. Food addiction is just as bad as any other addiction...maybe even worse. If I was a pill head I could not just go into the kitchen and make some pills. UGH...I hate this feeling. I need to et up and do something but I do not want to pass the kitchen. Maybe I will just lay down on the couch for a little while. Maybe I will call one of my violet sistas for some support. That is what I am going to do. I feel a little better already by just typing this all out.:mad2:

  3. wow I am surely fighting off the food demons tonight. I feel like a drughead that needs a fix.
  4. Kat----yummmm cake what kind?
  5. Hi everyone! YEAH KAT!! :party:That is the best news I have heard in a long time! DD just left and dh is asleep cause he goes to work in a couple of hours so it is very quiet here. Terry-sorry that you are in a funk. We all feel the same. We will all continue to feel it for a very very long time unfortunately. It is what it is and we have no choice but to live with it. We are in the result of years and years of bad choices (no party mentioned) and sadly will have to face years and years more. We will just have to take the lemons and make lemonade (or limes and make margaritas). Have a great evening everyone! PS Judy....You look fantastic!!
  6. Good morning everyone! Macy is going to moms & sisters this weeend so I have a ME weekend! Nothing special planned really, just peace & quiet. Wherever you go and whatever you do this weekend, be careful, have fun and make healthy choices! (((hugs)))
  7. Haydee-YIKES....sorry you are going through all of that! That SUCKS! And yes, two hundred is alot...at least it is to me. If I win the lottery Saturday I will buy you a new car and pay to have the other persons car fixed, k?
  8. Pam-Rick was cute in the day BUT age does not look good on him. Some folks age gracefully but not poor Rick.
  9. Haydee-well, I have to confess....macy IS picky about her meats. She is a chicken nugget junkie too BUT I only let her replace the meat if I know it is too dry and she can't swallow it. So, like when I cook I will bake her some nuggets and add the veggies I cook to her plte with the nuggets. As she gets older meat is getting easier for her to chew so I have noticed we do not buy as many nuggets as I used to.
  10. Hi...me again. Judy-hope you get your car back soon. That would tick me off too. Loved the cruise pics. I agree with Pamela, I enjoyed just seeing YOU again! Pamela-sounds like you are gonna have so much fun this weekend! Take pics and send them to us Laura-what is your gut feeling? Girl or boy? Jenn-have fun tonight :eek: Terry-now every time I see a necklace I like I thik, "hmmm, I wonder if Terry can make that". Michelle-what do you have on your full agenda for the weekend? Hopefully some time for just you! How is the no-weighing going? Kat-where were you raised, there? Don't know why I am asking, just wondering. Haydee-you know the food is good when you get a room full of people (especially men) and the room is quiet! I can just look at an eggroll and PB. :w00t: I miss those. Are you still going to see Mary Jo or did she rub you the wrong way? I am on the fence on whether or not I like her. Jane-it looked like your little green person stayed green all day yesterday. Busy day today? TracyinKS-what are you up to? Good or no good? :eek: Gina-did you disappear on us again? Denise-is grandma broke from buying the boys christmas yet? :thumbup: I would be! Suzanne-have a fun weekend planned? Have a great day everyone and I will bbl.
  11. Good morning violets- Good news...I have my sense of smell back (mostly) but still can't taste. Hopefully soon I can taste again. Maybe its best if I can't taste but it doesn't seem to be deterring me from eating/wanting to eat so I guess it doesn't matter. Is anyone watching the biggest loser? That Vicky chick and her husband and Heba just rub me the wrong way. It is just the air that they give off...maybe it is just edited to look that way....who knows. I just cooked macys breakfast and she actually asked for a nutritious breakfast. Normally she asks for junk and it is this huge ordeal when I tell her no but this morning she asked for bacon (turkey) and eggs! Maybe it is finally sinking in that the answer will be no to the other things. What a pleasant morning I have had! I will get back on later to do personals. :eek:
  12. Whew....what an eventful day. Have a good night everyone! (((hugs)))
  13. Here are a couple of pics of Macy from Blue Bell when we went to Brenham for the evacuation.
  14. Good morning violets- DH is back to work today so I will have the house to myself again. It is gonna br BURRRRR cold in the morning (high of 66) with rain at that so I am not looking forward to it. The real cold is gonna be Friday morning at 47. (yes Judy, that is COLD for us). Since I do not have as much insulation (fat) as I used to I get cold easily. Kinda feel like shaking like a chihuahua (sp?). DD still does not have any pants to wear since they are not hemmed yet so poor thing is just gonna have to suck it up for a morning or 2. The weekend looks beautiful with the high being 79. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! Michelle-what have you been up to? Laura-congrats on the no-smoking. I am very proud of you! Judy-we wanna see pics of your hair. Terry-hero smiles :smile: How sweet...I love him. Jenn-is the kitchen finished? TracyinKS-are you all done with the open enrollment at work? That HAS to suck! Any Ice cream lately? :grouphug: Haydee-how was the food yesterday? Sounded yummy! Jane-you don't sound crazy to me....but that is from one crazy to another :pray2: Pamela-do you have to get a new fridge? What was that outcome? Kat-what is Kinsey gonna be for halloween? Macy is going to be sleeping beauty. HH-best of luck on your fill. Hope it is just what you need to get you back on track! OK, gotta get off here and make macys breakfast.
  15. Laura-how is the no smoking going? cute dream btw...hope in your dream you have unlimited texts with your phone company!
  16. OK, dh went to bring dd to the bus stop so I have a few more minutes to type :Dancing_biggrin: I just noticed that over 200 folks have read my latest blog entry. Kinda freaky to know that. Hopefully someone learns from my mistakes, that is why I make it public. If I can help anyone not screw up, then I am happy. Mainly I do it for my own sanity. I know you all get tired of hearing the same old crap day in and day out so I just go type it there. lol It is a win-win situation. I may try to early vote today. This time next month the election will just be a memory thank God. TracyinKS-I know you have already tried the "ignore the tantrum", right? Just grasping at straws....
  17. Good morning everyone! I feel so much better this morning, thank God. I am still a little stuffed up but at least I can breathe through my nose again (for the most part). Terry-I can't go to the dr because we have new deductibles since dh has a new job. DH had it the worst last time so he is the one that went to the dr and I am taking his left over antibiotics. They are working, so I am glad I was able to kick it myself. Pamela-hope you have a better day. Have great day and make great choices everyone!
  18. Judy was on here and did not talk to us. BooHoo :tongue2:
  19. Terry-I have some antibiotics (Z-Pack) left over from when we had this crap before so I am taking them and zyrtec. Laura-well, I got sick, then well, now I have relapsed. Ringworm? I used to get them then when my cat died I noticed I stopped getting them :biggrin: Judy-glad to see you are on! Welcome home! Pamela-you don't know where to begin with what? Cat got your tongue? Cat meow, not Kat Kat.:tongue2: TracyinKS-sorry about what you are going through with Robby. This afternoon I feel a little better. I will just feel so much better when I can breathe through my nose. I slept most of the day and I think it was just what the dr ordered. Bad thing is I have eaten like a cow when I am up. What makes it worse is I can't taste what I am eating. Sad... Have a good evening violets!
  20. Just a quick check in....back to bed I go. I feel like I have been hit by a train.
  21. Good mornin' all- Have a great day & make good choices...
  22. Happy Birthday Haydee!!! Happy bandiversary Suzanne! Why the frown? You have done fantastic!! NEWSFLASH!!!! I found macy some elastic waist jeans!! WOOOHOOO!! They are from walmart (5 bucks a pair) and they must have put them out last night because they were not there yesterday. I got really lucky! Mom is gonna hem them for me. Thank you GOD!
