Green's grumblings



Recommended Posts

Awe man, does that mean, back on my knees for the Tummy Tuck? ?? I just nursed them back to health, not to mention the jaw muscles.

Yes, thanks for the recipe green, sounds yummy.

Oh so Green, you're a "working girl"?

Yep, just a very lazy one.... When you can lie down on the job and still make money you know you've got a good job!:kiss2:

Green is going for her third fill tomorrow. I need it! :help: This past weekend we went to the in-laws' cottage and on the way up and on the way back we stopped off at restaurants and I ate real meals really easily. :hungry: That I didn't quite finish them off is only due to my new smaller appetite.

The great outdoors was cold and gray and as a result I drank too much scotch.:faint: Normally I like to keep myself busy doing chores, especially yard work, but the leaves were wet and frozen to the ground. :) It was too cold to move stones and besides, my bad shoulder interferes with that. If I am inside and don't have my own toys around me I get bored and restless. I did go for a frosty walk and spent some time hanging out down at the lake. In fact I spent a lot of time staring at the lake and at the mickey of scotch.:heh: I have had healthier weekends at the cottage!

Poor Green. But then, poor BJean (yes, you can use my initials if you deem them appropriate, BJ). I'm not anti-smut either. Bring it on!

Anyway, I didn't hit the Scotch this weekend. I never hit the Scotch. But for the first time in YEARS (yep, YEARS) I decided to entertain my dinner guests by imbibing in too many glasses of Champagne laced with a little Chambourd. I'm so much funnier on my alcohol of choice. In my mind.

Some of us may have even jumped into the hot tub buck naked. After guests' departure, of course. The neighbors can't see over the fence (I hope). But I NEVER run naked in the backyard for the entertainment of anyone because even in my stupor I know that isn't entertainment, just a frightful display of a chubby woman gone amuck.

I have strange bruises on my inner arms. And just in case you're accusing my wrongly of having a bad hangover - I was tired but didn't have so much as a headache on Sunday. Hence champagne being my drink of choice.

Green's picturesque walk in the woods and kicking of frozen leaves made BJ misty for Canada and white winters.

Over the years I have done some funny things while naked.:) I got first into the habit while I was living in France. Lemme say that those Frenchies sure are relaxed about their bodies compared to us. And my mother-in-law is German and very relaxed about her body. She likes to get the gang going into the lake for a skinny dip. Of course this activity is mostly carried on after dark but I guess not always.... My husband and I recently learned that their cottage is known as the "naked cottage." :faint:

As for white winters, I am kinda getting sentimental over these, too. The truth is that thanks to global warming Canadian winters are getting milder and shorter. And to top things off, my city - Toronto - is now so large that it has created its own mini-climate. American cities to the south of us, such as Buffalo for instance, and Canadian cities to the west of us may be suffering from a blizzard and we will be left high and dry.

Nevertheless, I love the change of seasons. I really do.:)

As for champagne and Chambord, I envy you! Oh, how I envy you!!

Green.....we would have had some wild times together in the past!!! LOL...

I have met very few women who love scotch as much as I do. I no longer drink anymore (gave it up about 6 yrs ago)....(it just made me feel to icky and with certain meds I was on, it wasn't wise)...but my #1 drink of choice was always scotch....on the rocks. Mmmm Mmm mmmmm....my fave was O'Ban. *licks lips at the memory*.

As for TO having its own climate....ya got that right....it always amazes me (& makes me jealous) that I will leave Barrie where there is like 12 feet of snow and just one hour south in TO, there is nothing but bare pavement.....blows me away. Count yer blessings though is what I say!

On one trip that we made to Germany and Paris I was shocked at the nudity and "games" that were shown on regular TV. Oh yeah, I remember that I was fairly shocked when I lived in Montreal at the daytime shows that revealed a fair amount of nudity. They were nothing compared to the shows in Germany though. Those were more like what we'd call porn. Saw some things I hadn't ever seen before. Quite educational. But shocking.

The beautiful German women that we've known over the years have been very open sexually and with regard to nudity. I was always too hung up to relate in a personal way. Looked like fun though.

Most Bible Belt Americans that I've grown up with have so much guilt when it comes to their own sexuality that they aren't really sure what is all right and healthy and what is verboten. So they don't explore much and in fact have trouble sometimes with just the basics. Skinny dipping, for instance, can only happen if one has some help with some uninhibiting drug or other.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
