does anyone know where I can get the meditation link that kaiser recommends you listen to b4 surgery?

Hi everyone and hope you all have a great Sunday. Pam- Yes it was great meeting you too. adn yes that is my son in my avatar. He will be in crutches fro at least another week. poor guy I hope he gets better soon. Candra- I dont have any allergies to any products but I do use dye free and perfume free detergents becuase my guys do. I will probably wash the moomoo again just in case I am sensitive. Thanks! it sounds very cute. I jsut hope it fits. oh by the way I swalloed my gum last night by accident!! how long does it take to digest? or does it?

Liz and Canolie- I'm excited just for the ride up there with you wacky fun ladies!! Give me some ol' school and I'll be singing right up there with you. Does anyone have the link to the relaxing stuff we listen to b4 surgery? I remember reading a post about that and I think Tina or Riley you sent the link where we can download it to our ipod can someone send it?? Anyway went to Walmart today bought sweats, pajamas, booties and a very good smelling shampoo I'll use once I get to shower I figure surgery is on a wednesday so I'll shower saturday. I also cleared out a cabinet adn put all my meds MOM, gas x strips, vitamins and soups lots of soups and SF jellos I havent bought the sf popsicles yet. Does all that sound about right? Oooh I met Pam today! so cool our kids go to the same school. Pam we need to hook up gurl..

Good morning all.. Beatriz- I am so sorry that happen, I am sure that was a very scary moment for you and your family. Tina is right, take it easy, you just had surgery. Did you call your doctor? Get better and post how you are doing. Let me tell I am so nervous... Any thoughts on the traveling moomoo? Going to walmart to buy a few things today....

oh candra-- I'll try not to hit chronic b4 surgery ;0)

Candra- You are so funny, I'm liking the "traveling Moomo dress" we need to name it our lucky lapband presurgery dress and pass it on. Heather, Liz, canolie who will be the next one to wear it. I just hope it has wonderful powers..hey you didnt get any gas pains...bring that baby with you heck yeah I;ll wear it!! I adore every one of you ladies.

Hi all and buenos dias.. Liz I think I will join you guys I will need all the support I can get. Can I still bum a ride? I think I need to go shop for a moomoo..something I can just slip on after surgery and go comando after. what do you guys think..I dont have a summer dress and it'll be in the winter so not sure. Monique- I am so freakin out about feeling that object in my belly I know it's gonna feel weird. You havent complained of to much pain. I sure hope Baggs gets all my gas out. I think I will make a list of everything and gather a bag with all my stuff and designate a cupbard with all my food and vitamins,what do you guys think?

Hello all you beautiful people..I have some news... Liz just phoned me that my appt had to be rescheduled due to Dr Baggs having Jury Duty. She gave me an otion of either the next day (Nov 24th or Nov 18th) Duh..I took the 18th!!! Now I am shittin' bricks!! I am excited and scared all at the same time. Unfortunatly I cant hang with you guys on the 14th becuase I am sure I need to prepare for Wednedays surgery..I need all your advice on what to pack, eat medications etc...HELP!!!!

Riley- Good for you not to settle, you deserve better. I have a friend who met a few good guys on eharmony. So they are out there. I havent been in the dating scene for ever actually my husband was my high school sweetheart and you'll probably think this is weird but he was my 2nd boyfriend. I met him at 15 eekk...So I didnt date much. You are a great person and the right guy will come around. Good luck miss thang.;

Morning everyone! I finally went to the gym today. I wouldnt say I worked my butt off but put in 20 minutes of cardio. Tomorrow will be better. I feel icky today..I had such a fun weekend I'm sure that's why I feel this way..for some odd reason I want sushi.. but I'm ignoring that becuase I know the cals are horrible.

Hi everyone sorry havent been on lately..my son got injured at his football practice poor kid has to walk around with a huge brace (i mean this thing is humongous) anyway and I'm big time pms'ing I have such bad cramps and am craving EVERYTHING!!!! I just felt like baking so I looked everywhere and all I had was oatmeal so I made oatmeal cookies drizzled with nutella (that stuff is like crack!) Anyway I did gain a few pounds but not sure if its the bloating or my cravings!!! I joined 24hr on Friday but cant seem to make it there. Hopefully I can go tomorrow. Everyine have a great day. Jes and Candra you guys are doing great!!

Tamra- sorry I didnt realize you were just informed of your lay-off. I will pray for you tonight, if this was meant to be it WILL happen sooner than later just keep positive that's whats important! keep your head up and be positive!!

Hey tamra- your not to far maybe we can have our surgery together- I am haveing it on Nov 24..I know it's not the best date but hey lets rock it together!!!

Hey Heather, hey ladies!! Dr Baggs emailed me he is not requiring me to go to the lifestyle class but he does want me to start a support group. I havent told him I was reading this wonderful forum group yet. You know ladies, I felt so good today..I called in to make an additional appt b4 my surgery ( I cant say where.. she wants to stay anonymous) but found a new lap band friend. I was so concerned because she got it done in May and wasn't given all the proper information?.. was done at ssf. Anyway, from all the info I learned from all of you I was able to explain what pb'ing and sliming was and was able to explain what she was feeling based on your responses in the past of course. I can truly say even though I dont know any of you and I hope to SOON meet you all, you have impacted my life and now someone elses. I gave her the link to this site and she will probably come on as a guest. THANKS EVERYONE!!!!
