    I do need to take pics. It's so hard for me to see but everyone tells me they can see a huge change. I have always hated getting my picture taken but that should be getting better. :biggrin1: Maybe I

    OK...this is how I did it... First save your picture as a jpg document. If you can resize so that they are not huges it is better. The way to do that would depend on your camera software. Next..

I took lots oc vit C and Airborne and I feel fine! :clap2: I weighed myself on what I think is the same scale at work...but maybe it was a diff. one...they all look alike! I will go by the one I bought and see teh change on that one only! The new one says 220-221, the hospital one that had said 220 the other day said 226.7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:sick

I would go by the new one!!:heh:

Since I will not be having Thanksgiving dinner either, I thought I would get my dear mom to freeze some dressing and giblet grave for when I can have some. I love mom's dressing. Good luck to us all. Finer and thinner here we come.

I am with you Sherrie, I wont be able to eat Thanksgiving dinner either. But, I am a vegetarian, so I really wont be missing out on too much! Good luck to you!

I just noticed that when I am writing in a hurry i have lots of typo's!:embarassed: Well... I am sure you can still figure out what I am trying to say huh?

No Thanksgiving dinner for me either! I might try to make a little turkey Soup, and a bit of cranberry sauce as dessert... I plan to work that day, but you know...in hospitals there is ALWAYS food!!!:)

Good luck to everyone!!! I leave Sunday for MX.... :(

Hey Everyone! How are we doing today?

Jessica!! Glad to see you back, and doing well. I keep hearing that now is the time to heal, focus on that first and everything else will soon fall in place.

Prbrooksie!!! That's great that you are cleared....keep us updated.

Here's our starting line-up for the first week of Nov., there's quite a few on Nov. 2...let's keep them all encouraged! Safe travels to those who are traveling...we'll be waiting to hear from you on pins and needles. If we're missing anyone, let us know...

Chris, thanks again for doing all this stuff.... now you are even simplifying the list to make it even easier to spot who is going when.... You are wonderful!

Angela, I thought you said you were leaving for S.D. on Friday.... are you staying there for a couple of days before you go to Mexico?

Melany and Frogger---- are you there?? Good luck tomorrow!!!

I gotta get back to work now, but hope you are all having a sugar-free (but fun) Halloween!!!

Hi,

I am going Sunday and my surgery is Tuesday the 7th...in Mexicali. I hope my San Francisco clothes will be fine down there... it might be much warmer there than I am thinking. :)

Count me in-- I am scheduled for Nov. 11. I am doing the pre-op diet and so far making it fine. But I know I am going to need plenty of support!:clap2:

OMG!:) I am hooked on this site...I need you guys to get me through right before surgery...I really, REALLY...did I say REALLY missed seeing everyone online yesterday and this morning!:faint:

Ok...I finally got a hold of myself :) let's talk!

Thank goodness we are back up and running! I have been having withdrawals! I've been checking every little bit to see if it was working yet. :)

I know! I was wondering what was going on! I have been having a rather horrible week...so it is not too surprising...i thought maybe it was just my computer...

ME TOO!! I have been DYING to get back to this site.... what happened??

I was freaking out!! Thanks for still being there....I didn't know what to do next!!:faint:
