Hi Girl,
Sorry for not being in touch. DRAMA big time in my life- had to have my band replaced, leaking port, just got home from the hosp. yesterday. Lost my job Monday, they forced my out on FMLA and disability since I have a progressive lower limb Neurologic deficit and am required to use a power chair- the company refused and gave me the boot. I cried for 3 days after 24+ years and to be treated so poorly, hit me hard. So I am on disability probably forever. I will spend time on the lake in my boat to keep from getting bored. My significant retires in 36 months so all will be good then.
How are you doing and how's the weight loss?
Miss chatting with you, Lighterload

Okay seriously! You have got to be my fairy godmother!!! That makes me feel so much better. I almost attacked my poor husband over chicken and broccoli last night. Wasn't pretty and neither was my mood. All I have been eating is protien shakes and that's it...I hadn't thought about the soup. Think I'd be okay with a little cream of chicken? And the enchiladas sound SO amazing!!! -
Okay people I'm STARVING!!! I have 5 days left until I can go to the mushies but I'm going to lose it if I have another shake. Does everyone wait for 2 weeks before mushies? And what were your mushies? Thanks!

Don't even know what to title...

You aren't being too nosey! You are so funny about that. Okay my misery is that I'm tired of the protein shakes and after I have one I either I feel like I'm going to throw up or have diarreah. I'm really hot or cold and I'm just having a hard time getting comfortable and would give anything for something besides the variety of protein shakes, jello, and sf pop cicles. -

I'm not having any pain. I haven't had any for about a day or so...and I'm walking once an hour for 10 minutes. -

Hey girl,
Glad to hear you surgery was moved up. By now you are home recovering. Hope all is going well.
I have not been to this site for weeks, had a death in the family and they are now believing that the pain in my hip, that I have had for almost 2 years is caused by a compressed nerve so off to a Neurologist in 2 weeks. Sure hope thay can fix this, I refuse to live on Narcotics.
Down 56 lbs. now and moving toward my thrid fill.
Keep in touch, Lighterload
