  4. OK finallyh caught up. AND the hot sure west guy hooked me all up:) So i got INTERNET!!! AT a very rapid speed of 10.66 on speedtest.net mike loved hearin that:) SO.. im doing much better then i was yesterday and the other day with crab. Last night i couldnt get myself to eat broth.. so i had soup and salad... at red robin, it ALL WENT DOWN PERFECT. Then i didnt eat bfast, could tell i was not ready, so i had water then lunch 1/4 c tuna on my lettuce:) went down perfect. No pain nada. I think my issue is breads and tortillas... Im really tryin hard to forgow them.. and since i have no problems.. interesting. OMG pms is hitting me hard, i have not had a REAL hard tom since before auds, last month i had 2 days of spotting... sparatically thru the month.. But this am i woke up in tears. Its like when i was in highschool.. the cramping.. (caused me to go on bc way back in the day..) SO.. im guessing tom will be here within a couple days. OH I need intervention lol.. Coldstone.. LADIES ITS WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE!!! omg WHAT AM I GONNA DO. I already tried it.. eek i know:( so yummy cool thing though is 1/4-1/2 c is too much for me. lol, i guess thats better then a cup and half before.. or 2 cups... but still id ont know what to do. Im .5 miles from sunrise mall. 2 miles from the nice walmart... and about 1 mile from the coldstone. ekkkkk!!! I am gonna work out tonight once mike gets home, auds isnt to fond of the workout kids area lol.. Christine.. like ive said already:) Your body will naturally loose weight while prego if you eat right. I didnt even try to loose weight when i was prego with auds, and i started around your weight. But i lost a lot. You will be fine. Dont stress over the scale though you gots a lot of other things to worry about:D Tina: you know i am always worried about you, you girl are in my prayers. I hope you get offered this job tomorrow! You could really use a big break!!!! AND, id email baggs to get your butt in.. could you by any chance see any of the other surgeons?? Riley! good job at getting the retention gone!:cool2: Im workin on tha tnow lol. So crazy what a lil lack of water can do...:tt1: BTW all you paying a ton.. for kaiser especially your kids.. seriously call kaiser ask about the child health plan, it is theirs.. i pay get this 5.00!!! for audrey. till she is 18. Her copays are all 5.00... it is worth checking into. And when we qualified we were making 4k a month for a fam of 3.. now we dont make quite that much but still qualify:D Pam how is ur teacher? Donna: you are so cute, you should go with candra, and ask why we cant have shakes you will love robin lol... April, are you doin ok? Jess: enjoy the soup:) Tamra: girl get back on the band wagon:) We will drag you all the way to goal:) Everyone else hope u are all good:D
  5. Candra, and jess, girls you are both in my prayers, i do not envy this time. I was going crazy between doubt and excitement. I just wanted it to be here alllllready!!!:thumbup: We are all here for you and remember to have the hubs call one of us to update everyone:D
  6. oh yeah candra he LOVES his new position. I guess its a Jr Engineer position, so he loves that hes growing and not staying in technician level.. But i guess it is a challenge, which is WAY good:D
  7. Hi candra:) No i gots my phone. It is dead today with no charger with me.. lame i know:( I dontknow if thats an option, im so scared to ask for one cause i dont want him to take out 2ccs.. i would die. I think if i just loose another 10 lbs ill be perfect again like last time. PROB is 10 lbs is a lot at this point. so i dont know.. if it doesnt get any better i think ill have to call cause i still feel pain around my port.. meaning im probably swollen in there.. and i dont wanna cause any problems. Tonight is pudding for dinner:) Lucky duckey me:) The thing though is when im in pain like this im not really hungry its all head hunger. We get net tomorrow. Tv. we are trying to do a lil antena thingy so we will see. Tryin to save some $$$... We have the rental truck rented for Sat and sun return on monday. If ya wanna come up and see miss auds IM SURE shed love to play:) lol Im dreading driving back to sac im quiet exhausted. Oh yeah everyone keep your eyes out for a dining table looking for a glass set. I saw one at a furniture store, SHOULDA bought it but im dumb..319.. is what they were selling it for:( oh well. Well im gonna go fill the car with another load.. so not into this today..:thumbup: Big hugs.. hopefully i can steal internet tonight:D
  8. Hi girls, Im in Marysville today for a couple hours so INTERNET!!! and TV! lol oh my.. ok i am swearing off food, i never want to talk to it again. It can stay away from me and im happy. :frown: I did WONDERFUL, no pbing sliming etc, for over a week.. then last night... i had crab.. and i musta had a piece of shell or soemthing cause omg, i pbd 4 times. Yes i was bad and tried eating again.. finally after i tried eating some hot sour soup.. i threw it all up and dislodged whatever was in there.. and i was able to eat a couple salad shrimp. And felt fine and done. Oh i also had some pudding. Well after that happened my stomach actually hurt. Like i could feel it.. kinda freaky..And i wasnt hungry this am so just had some cheese, and then for lunch there was nothing here so we got taco hell, well... i pbed 3 times.. its like my pouch gets so incredibly tight that nothing will go down until i pb.. what the hell? I told mike im not eating dinner ill do pudding, cause i HAVE to be swollen.... Im so irritated. I dont want an unfil. I know i could use it because even before my bunches of pbs.. i would get stuck and have to wait for it to go down.. I think im gonna go to softs, and soups, and trythat for a couple days to unswell me. I have gotten away from the sweets again..(yeah i got addicted once again..) BTW, pineapple juice does not always work.... It burns ur nose.. SO yeah im a little depressed today. Anyone preband this isnt normal, i am to tight i know this so just ignore me. Hey tina, i can get all fluids down though, so im still "safe" Just NO CARBS... once i have a carb.. im done for. Cheese is my easiest item to get down... Fruits are interesting.. Oh well im ok other then that getting net tomorrow..
  9. Hi my beautiful bandster babes. So no i wont be moving on tuesday but there is no way im going, cause they will MAKE me step on the scale and im running from that right now. ugh. I was gonna go.. but also i dont wanna overwhelm our preop girls.. So ive realized if i stick to the rules i dont pb. LOL GO FIGURE!:wink2: lolol For example.. enchilada.. if i eat the tortilla i feel it going down the whole time. If i just eat the cheese inside... im good. We are officially moving next weekend i think, really depends on audrey. Just us unpackin the cars with her was a living nightmare. But i miss my stuffs... except same time i dont lol. Very mixed feelings. I dont like the idea of have a full house agian. Because there isnt much storage.. Candra, how are you doin beautiful???? Tina: i hope your job calms down... Pam: Oh man im sorry they were so uncool and couldnt wait.. Chris hows ur tummy. Jess: hows work? Getting excited?? Donna: iknow your doing great!!! Have you been doin the wii??? Everyone else hope you are all doing fantabulous!!!
  10. OK i have an addiction... LAP BAND TALK!!!! AND MY GIRLS!!! We signed the lease Friday... and didn't have to do a walk thru till sat.. we found fun stuff, like an exploding shower broken dishwasher, and closet door issues. Other then that all is good practically bran new. Very nice i love it. Will be even more happy when we are finalized and moved... ya know. Right now i have no forks... no plates etc. No pots and Pans.. lol. So.. you guessed it.. im eating out.. SO NOT GOOD. We did good and split a plate at elephant bar then got.. DESERT! Why oh why does that go down soo easy. So im up 2 lbs. Oh well ill get back on track im sure... So did i say i missed you all lol.. i just wanted to get online then i couldnt remember my password.. go figure.. Ok what else is new in my life.. i have a budget idea.. Take all my bills then divide by 4 and take that much out every check.. should work.. i think. lol What else..did ya galls go on the walk???? Ok i guess i better go we are going over to the JBF sale for 50% off sunday... HUGE hugs. Nicole feel free to call if ya wanna go swimming, workout, eat dinner, do anything im quite bored with NO TV AND NO INTERNET!!!!:wub: FYI.. also.. i live exactly 7/10 from sunrise mall.. so we can walk there too:D

Im really happy to hear they didnt yell at you. That is a good thing!!! Kinda sucks they took so much, but i totally get the whole preop dieting i lost a lot more on that also in shorter time.

  13. I have zip zero none energy today:( It is probably cause ive had chicken noodle soop and now onion soup to eat. Im trying REALLLY hard to give my tummy and band a break for the day.. but i can feel the ickyness. SO you all want the news which im soooo happy about but have no energy to type lol. I got the call we GOT APPROVED! For get this 99.00 deposit! OK i must have really fixed mikes credit, this is the first time in our 8 yrs that we have a NORMAL deposit! So TOMORROW i sign the papers and get the keys have to bring 1015.00 which is the remainder of this month and next months rent.:thumbup: SWEET! The rent is 899.00 its pretty big. April i was SERIOUSLY debating between urs and this one.. mikes vote was for oak creek mine was tossed. I just liked the glass room for auds while i work out. You should come to the kickboxing classes with me though Thursdays 7pm:D Ok im gonna go take care of A ill be back
  14. Chris, you could still hit goal with being pregnant, maybe not goal but loose a lot.. When i got prego with auds i was 240 and lost 30 lbs during my pregnancy.. Then gained it all back plus after..
  15. Chris! Let us know how much they take. I would be nervous also:) but im glad bev was nice. What was the hard time she gave?? Im so gladyou got prego first, will let me see how much trouble ill be in lol.. when i do get prego.. BTW, i just noticed yesterday was mine and mikes 1st wedding 6 yr anniversary.. lol.. we didnt do anythigns special we dont celebrate. But it was the day i decided to work my butt off on saving my marriage. I had a friend that i had to push away. We were JUST FRIENDS did nothin physical, but i think it was ruining my marriage.. So i thought it was funny that yesterday is the day i decided to give mike my all..:blushing:
  16. We applied at Oak Creek in Citrus Heights off fair oaks. Right by Sunrise Mall.. 1300 a month OMG! And i complain about me 100 a month! Goodness!!!! So im doing soups today.. need to take care of my belly im sure after getting sick yesterday im swollen:( Im so tempted to eat egg and get this potatoes!!! How can we get soo addicted to carbs soo fast!
  17. CONGRATULATIONS CHRISTINE.. But i already knew lol:) You just doubted me.. lol. Ok you will probably no matter what have to eat 1200.. so ur body isnt in starvation. And you will need an unfill im guessing. So today was fun woke up way to early, drove mike to work, then went apt hunting. Did find one i liked and filled the paperwork out. Then went and printed out his VA info and got his offer letter, and then had him fill his out. We might be moving in on Friday depending on deposit amnt.. I love it! Kick boxing classes! A gym with a class room to watch ur kids PLAY! 3 pools 3 spas, raquet ball, computer lounge, i am on a golf course. One of our HUGE things we will be in a 2/2 almost 980 sf on the GOLF COURSE, bottom floor. 2 balconies. Pretty nice, oh and another niiiice thing is the parking is 10 feet from our door. So ill know tomorrow. What else, oh yeah i took the test last week after my blood ones, and well.. it was neg i was excpecting that and hoping for that because i am on an iud and if u get prego on it you have very high chances of miscarraige. I dont want a baby right now.. maybe around the holidays all depends on us.. Tina been thinking abou tyou all day.. Told my friend who is in daycare that cps is shutting she said"theyve been sayin that for years i dont believe it" i said IM SERIOUS THEY ARE.. i gave up lol. Everyone else i miss you all and candra go to dollar tree for the stuff u have to take before surgery MM... They will also tell u waht to get at the class. Ok i need to drink some soup. Im kinda tight. Pb as soon as i have something of bready material. Ie bfast egg and bacon then tried pancake, bam.. it was just slime though, then lunch taco from taco bell didnt go down well... had a piece of auds tortilla and bam.. then dinner great great on rib meat then had a BITE of a hush puppie and bam. SO i guess carbs are out for me:(
  18. We checked them out a while ago they are pretty expensive it was like 1200 for a 1bdrm. I dont mind sharin a bathroom with her but it would be nice for 2..
  19. I would bet my last dime that your pregnant Chris... Candra yeah we can meet up with you that works fo rme. Who is all going Sat??? Tina: My heart goes out to you and all the poor kids out there. This is not good. And them putting it in the paper is stupid i think. What a good way to turn things back around FAST AS POSSIBLE. I remember as a kid i said ill call cps and i know that stopped my parents.. now kids will have noone on their side. Wow this really is kinda sad.
  20. Uhm Chris.. Are you Pregnant?????? I remember you saying at our fill that your period was supposed to be starting that day...?
  21. REggie: We ALLL do it. I promise you are NOT anywhere near alone on this one:) And when you can tell me why that will be nice:) Carbs though i noticed are what did you in. Next time try doing a fruit or something other then a second bagel. What i do when i get hungry on a day of carbs i will totally try somethin diff cause they are addicting.. Tina: hope you are ok. Candra: Mine does that also.. computers are not so smart.. always.. Donna: toobad your not ocming i am.. Hey did anyone call Liz about Sat?? Mike and i are staying in the area Fri night if anyone wants to get together and do dinner??? Pam: hows the teacher doing?? Jess: You shouldnt have to tell them its an elective surgery im pretty sure that is NONE of their biz, and illegal if they ask.. April.. ive decided to finish up my apt hunting tomorrow.. so ill know tomorrow afternoon:) Mike and i are gonna work on us. Today with him gone has made me start to get respect back again already. Crazy how you can get suffocated with your spouse.. I didnt have any more pbing incidents today (never taking tylenol like that again!) here is the cool thing here is my menu.. B: 1/4 c potatoes and 1 fried egg yummy lots of moistness and 1tsp ketshup for extra.. 125 L: 1/4 c beef and 1/8 c salmon 300 calories S: Almonds 80 cal And the only reason ur dumb friend had almonds was well audrey is my only friend lol... But im not hungry and its interesting. This am did scare me with tylenol gettin stuck but oh well. I am on another stupid plateu.. i will start to work on that tomorrow i think.. im just only getting about 6 hrs of sleep so im kinda POOPED. Emotionally and physically. My daughter has drank more then me today now that isnt good.. Who else posted.. eh... loss for words:D ttyl
  22. OH Candra the PANTS I LOVE EM. They arent as tight as the skinny jeans but soo comfy and cute:D
  23. I am bein careful it tasted yummy:D I do the yolk extra runny... with added ketshup (my be careful idea) Tina i was gonna come but i couldnt fall asleep last night and when 6 came this am it was too soon i wasnt wantin to move.. so mike left me home.
  24. DOnna! You have a good day also:D I am gonna attempt to make an egg.:thumbup: Wish me luck lol:D
  25. April i see ya online, thursday im doin apt stuff mike wants me to look at 1 other place closer (walking distance) from intel. And then we are making up our mind, i figure no matter what he will fulfill a lease so i dont need to worry too much about moving with him right now. To be honest we arent in agreement on which floor plan we like i like the 2/2 he lieks the 2/1 lol. So its not fun right now lol. I have a feeling though we will probably end up with the 2/1... well see:D
