I missed the text, was wondering about Pamela, called and left a message, but am sure Susanne is very overwhelmed with all the calls and then caring for Pamela.

I didn't get notified of any new posts, I wonder if that will happen automatically like before? I think I was the only one on this board that used that feature though.

If anyone hears anything on Pamela would you let me know, I work both jobs tomorrow so will be away from computer.

I don't know if I can take this site anymore... too much stuff / bells & whistles in the way. Bleh. Who has time to adjust everything & figure it all out? Not me! Have they never heard the phrase "Keep It Simple Stupid"?

Edited to add: Oh, and how I dislike the ad right here in my post! That's not obnoxious or confusing! Seriously, this is horrible.

DD placed FIRST in both rounds of her jumper show last night! First time she's done that... she was soo excited! Will post a pic (HA! not if it take more than a few mins to figure out how).

Off to grocery shop & then make sides & pie & appetizer to take to my mom's for tomorroow. Oh, and cinnamon Buns for the morn while watching the parade -- that's my fav part of TG day... snuggle under the blanket on the couch w/a java and a cinn bun & watch the parade. :)

Now there are chocolate whoopie pies rolled in candy canes! Where's the laughing rolling around smilie? Oh, not conveniently located at the bottom of my screen where it used to be so handily located! Duh!

1 more thing... how does one become an "anonymous" user? & here I thought that "guests" were sneaky!

I so don't like this site anymore. When I tried to put a picture in my signature, it asks for a URL for the image?? I don't HAVE a url for pictures stored on my computer. Come on!! And if I want to change the font and color, I have to type everything, then highlight and change. This is really bad now. I HATE the ads all over the place, ESPECIALLY the one in the first post of the page.

Today I make the squash, 5 cup salad and brussel sprouts for dinner at Kris's tomorrow. Can't wait to be with family and enjoy the day with Kris cooking the turkey in my roaster. It's all about tradition!

I'm REALLY happy with the outcome for DWTS. It's the only reality show lately that picked the right winner.

Off to fix Breakfast and clean up the house a little before cooking and Curves.

Hope PamELa is doing well today!

Everyone have a great day in spite of this %^&** site!!!

Good morning.

Didn't have a good nights sleep, was worried about several things, nothing too important, but I guess it was heavy thinking night.

I hope you all have a great day today.

What is everyone doing for Thanksgiving?

If anyone hears anything about Pamela, please text me.

hate hate hate this... i've got ads everywhere too. ads IN the posts?? why???

i'm glad to hear you're feeling better pam!

lets see, tomorrow is kinda crazy. i told myself i was going to take it easy but i'm a glutton for punishment. I'm making green bean casserole and brocoli rice casserole for both families. juan's family eats at noon and mine eat at four. so. i'll be cooking in the morning and then running back and forth. we eat at juan's family's house, then at mine, then go back for a bit at juan's and finish up with dessert at mine. this is so not happening once sophia comes. we are staying put...

oh and i'm huge now and feeling huge and in pain. I have lots of hip pain and my belly is huge and i can barely sleep. i toss from one side to another all night. i sometimes get stabby when it's the middle of the night and i'm exhausted and juan is blissfully asleep. I want to push him off the bed. i'm so so bad. i'm glad i only have about a month left.

well i hope everyone has an awesome thanksgiving tomorrow. we are headed to go see my grandparents in mexico early saturday morning!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
