AudsMom

Good morning! I had a WAKE up call today! I was SUPPOSED to wake up at 5 to go with mike to work today.. Well we all know nicole 5 is a bit early so i said "im sleeping" well after i heard the garage i was like crud i need keys.. to go to walmart today.. Well i run out hes gone.. then im like ok ill call.. hes not far.. HE TOOK MY CELLLLLL! Oh my lifeline:( so i texted not to happy.. Then i went to sleep well tried u know everyone calls when ur tryin..lol.. so i get up make auds some eggs, and make a tea for me.. Grab two SMALL LITTLE TINY tylenols, and take them and take a big sip of tea (old habbits die hard) and well you betcha those darn tylenol got stuck!!!!! So stuck that is the worst pain i have felt so far. All the tea i had drank came back up. So now im focusing on drinking 16 oz before i try to eat cause wowie.. be careful with that tylenol girls.. OK for everyone facing being laid off.. here is what we did. I had kaiser when i gave birth and mike got laid off from vsp. We couldnt afford Cobra.. so we went and looked at Kaisers Steps program, (you can find it online) and only people who have previously had kaiser and gotten laid off are eligible. Well they do it via incom but you can make quite a bit i believe i can make 50 k for us and qualify. The first year it was 50 dollars a month, co pay was 5.00 and emergency free. So very affordable coverage.. better then what we had working, then for audrey i put her on the child plan its 5.00 a month till she is 18 yrs old. Her copays are only 10 dollars. Ok now i pay 97.00 a month and my copay is 15. Next year it goes up to 145.:thumbup: but that is a LOT cheaper then cobra... Just an fyi:) Today was mikes first day back at work. Id have to say i do like him working jus tmy mornings are less stress alone.. its kinda nice.

Calling for Tina!!! Where are you?? Your on here I SEE you lol.. Are you feeling ok? i dont see ya on IM.. hope ur colds ok

You are right chris i was guessing cause i remember seeing 250.. its 250 for 1c so i guess thatwould be 125.. Hey good news got the salmon down might try another chunk or maybe just be happyi got it down:D

I made the recipe off of bariatric recipes, same one as you, you know melt the butter add the flower add the Cream.. boil put on fishie dash with cheese. Well the salmon baked became very dry. Not band friendly.... Mike starts back at intel tomorrow i hope thathelps some things..

Hi my gals miss ya all.. I didn't make it to my fitness class my life is too out of control right now. Mike and i got into it again i told him i want him to move alone. I am so scared and confused i don't know what i want. So april the 2/1 is avail in 3-4 weeks... Im debating what to do im scared to move with mike cause ill be trapped i think. idk... so i made the salmon... it is not good in the recipe chris...to dry... didnt work... ended up with ckn noodle..

Wow 60 on southbeach! That is awesome. But i believe South Beach is the closest to a high protein one they can get if i remember right???

i will have to make that this week sounds very yummmmmy:) :biggrin:

Yup they are very finicky.. I went to lunch with my friend to my fav chinese place, i was smart had tea to start then had crab, easiest thing you can eat lol:D

What is turbo jam?? Pam so glad you got the right shirt. Tina hope you had a bite for me! Uh gosh i just went blank.. everyone else so glad ur doing well tamra dont worry about the pizza:D Tomorrow is a new day!

OH andNO Exercise lol ive been lazy since i hurt my knee again..... right before i was ready to run the five k i got told to rest and now its always in pain its lame... BUT i start a pe class tomorrow at ARC which im super nervous for... so hopefully it will remotivate..

It was a very lucky week... i had been on a plateu though for a month... and then i said im tired of this.. and followed the rules 100%.. i had been slackin on water.. and drank way to much water, and measured again. And it was like post op just melted away, i was very happy.. but im on a plateu again lol. I hit these its annoying. Dr baggs said its normal though since im so close to normal weight. so bla...

Not as tight as you chris. Last fill.. i was fine for 2 weeks and then pbed probably 4 or 5 times in one week.. then was good and then the next week i lost 8lbs and then it loosened way up.. waited a week got my fill.. Then this fill, i had issues with tamale:( but after i got that out i was able to eat some chicken noodle soup broth and then a couple bites of meat. I havent had it where i continuously cant eat. All i can say is try taking smaller bites i find when i do have issues its bigger bites.. i was even able to have some cinnamon roll today.. I hope you feel better soon. AND yes REAL chickens, and no not on a farm.. she just loves chickens. Needless i didnt let him buy them lol. She liked the idea though lol.

OMG IM LAUGHING SOO HARD TODAY. MIKE IS CRACKIN ME UP. Hes gettin his mom chickens and roosters.

Candra, i guess its good that you have a chef in the house! But sucks that he canceled your plans. I think im gonna make some of that soup.. sounds yummy. Ok i was craving chocolate today so had pudding oh well lol. LOL we are online buyin CHICKENS!!! So Tuesday ill be in sac apt searching mike wants me to look at a handful tomake sure ill be happy at aprils.

Tina.. i once heard dairy is bad for a sore throat? So she is trickin ya! Ill take ya up on your offer. She just takes time to warm up im sure youve noticed that lol. Yesterday she cracked me up at the meeting how she didnt realize i walked to the table and was like MOMMMMA!!!! lol and chasing me down. Such a baby. SPeaking of, i am learning her.. she was startin to become.. well 2.. and i was like ok i think we are close to nap time. So i went and found her and she already had her GIANT blanket (litterally is for a twin size bed) and sippy, i said ok lets go to ur room, so she ran me in there and i tucked her in and shes out. love when i learn my own kid:D So today im doing... OK.. lol i made mike and auds cinnamon rolls for bfast, and had a half of one over the course of an hour.. you know bit here bite there.. For lunch i had 1 tablespoon of egg/chicken salad and 2 pieces of the meat from the dinner i made the other nite. So about 1/4 c food. Filled me up. But head hunger isa killer today...

Aww auntie candra I love you too, i like how you teach me to throw crayons on the ground and stick them between my toes, and then eat muffins yummm that was good.. i bugged mommy till she gave me more.. We went to the pizza place i loveeee and i got to play on the playground. They say you have to be 32 inches but you will fit just fine;) <3 Audrey Renee

Woo hoo:) put them in the bag for the next exchange:D I am so excited about hte walk next week.. not so excited about tomorrow.. Im thinking all day tomorrow ill have to be SUPER careful with my band..

Pam: i hope you can get some rest today, that does not sound like an enjoyable evening AT ALL. I have a question for seasoned parents:D How do you know when your child wakes from a nightmare vs just waking to wake??? I dont wanna ignore audrey if she is waking from a nightmare but i dont wanna cuddle her if she is waking to be a brat lol. Thanks pam, and the plaid looks fine i think you just need to wear smaller clothes:) Baggy lady!!!:)Go to ross get a cute little dress to wear to the colonoscopy;) Tina: we got the band so we can live, thats what ya did and its all good:) I want a brownie though lol. Oh well debating on what to do with my sunday....

Tam just like Chris said. Because right now your body is used to a flat number of calories. Also try to mix up WHAT you are eating, for instance if you are eating tuna, try throwing in some shrimp, or beef. Try no carbs or very tiny tiny bit, and TONS of water.. for the next week i bet you will see some drops:D

Good Morning ladies! How is everyone today. Tam, sounds like you are on a plateu throw a mix into it, like try having a high calorie day.. Thats what i always did. Jess we missed you also:)

Good Nite Tina have a nice nite!

I am on YIM..

Tina i totally agree.. that is why we are all so close.. we are gonna get each other to goal and keeeeep us there, then go on a cruise and partay like its 1999:)
