Ok... I'm on my 4th 16.9 oz bottle now! The first 3 were water; this one is lemonade crystal light!

I ran to Publix on my sick day. Thought it would be nice to go when there aren't buttloads of people.. wrong.

Lots of OLD people this time of day.. no one tells you these things. And old people don't move very fast. I had to come to complete stops the whole time, waiting, while they are side by side ignoring the fact that anyone else is there.

I feel poopy and now hungry, but nothing sounds good. I bought some Quaker Muffin Bars, banana & oats. 130c per bar, I've eaten 1/4th of it and I'm full. Pretty good, wonder if they keep well if I try to re-wrap it up.

I called Walgreens again today, they said they'd call me back last Friday, then that weekend, then Monday.. and so I let it go till today, so I finally call. The GM was there, said he was going to look at it, hasn't yet.. and he said 'We talked to the cashier, he said he put them in your bag'. And they're all but calling me a thief, so I'm gettin pissed off. I said 'Ok, well he was WRONG'.

So guy went to review the tape (one person already did and said they saw them go in my bag). He calls me back.. he said 'The video shows he rang it up, then set it back on the counter'.

AH HUH, I'M NOT A LIAR OR A THIEF! Stupid asses. He gave me a quick apology and told me I can come pick up my smokes.

I hope cashier is reprimanded for lying, he got off 15m after he rang me up, which means HE had to put the carton of cigarettes back on the shelf since he left them on the counter. Then he lied.

Then someone else watched the video and lied! It never went in my bag. HRMPH.

So there, back to my nyquil and intervention :)

I'm not receiving any email notifications from LBT----anyone else having that problem? I have checked my User CP and it all looks ok.....hmmmmm

House is almost normal--dinner is done, Kinsey is headed home....water intake is up....all is well in my little corner of the world.

Glad you got Walgreens taken care of Laura---those things can be such a pain!!

Feel better!

Jane enjoy your snuggly night at home, I intend to! Well as much as I can, my drill sgt. will be home soon----we begin working out again tonight! I removed all the clothes from the weight bench!!! LOL it is all ready to go!

TTYL!

Judy? Haydee?

Hi violets!!

It is so nice for everything to be back to normal again. All unpacked & things are put away. Holidays are over...life does not get any better.

I have a pic I want to post...maybe I will do it this weekend. About 6 months ago (around there) dh and I went to an Astros ballgame and they gave away t-shirts that day (Jeff Bagwell for those who know who he is) anyway, theyonly handed out XL and when I got home I put it on and it was so tight I felt like I was wearing a condom (or at least I guess that is wht it would feel ike since I AM a female, lol). Back then, I asked dh to take my pic with it on. The other day I put it on and was sure it was probably still snug...not at all. It fit perfectly. So, now I will take an after with it on and show you all. HUGE NSV for me.

Everyone have a great evening!

Well guys (or gals i should say), I know i don't post much (especially lately, seems i get no internet time and you ladies are very chatty - hard to keep up :-) ), but i just had to post this.......

One of the main reasons I wanted to have the band (or well, lose the weight i should say), has come to fruition..........

I'M GONNA BE A MOMMY!! :whoo::preggers:

It still hasn't set in totally yet that I'm really pregnant. It's my first and I've wanted it so bad for so long that I think my brain just hasn't completely wrapped around the idea that it's real...but 3 positive HPT's can't be wrong...LOL. Looks like it'll be a late summer/early fall baby :) My first appointment is friday at 10:30....I'm a nervous wreck....can't wait to get there.....DH wants to go with me so bad, but he can't :-( It really bums me out too, but it's so 'last minute' for him to get off work that we weren't sure if he would be able to when I first set up the appt anyway.

Anywho, i'm REALLY going to try to keep up with the posts, i just have to set aside 1-2 hours each night for LBT! LOL.

Anywho, I hope everyone had a great new years and I'll try to check in again with a brief update on Friday :)

Hey Violets~

Kat~ I don't have email notification anymore. Too many emails;).

I fell off the wagon:faint::faint:. I fell really off the wagon. I fell so far off the wagon that I got up and walked 5 miles away from the wagon. I am not telling anyone, just you all. I feel like shit and at the same time warm and fuzzy. I am going to workout tomorrow but today sucked. Except that i am finishing my 4th bottle of water...other than that I suck eggs today.

I'll be back in the sadle tomorrow!:)

I don't know why I care, but those people getting excited about having the band then taking it out when they're want to be, are annoying me.

Have they not gone to a seminar? Have their docs not talked to them at all about the band?

I shouldn't care.. it's their money and life..

OK, Vi's!~~

Here are my Bodybugg Day 1 results as of 9:44pm...

Cals consumed: 800 (it was a pro shake day... 800 total cals but 130 of them were protein!!)

Cals burned: 2080 (I was in front of the computer for most of it! It was definitely a low-moving day)

Cal deficit: 1280!

Kewl!!

Tomorrow will be a different type of day, more out-&-about, so it'll be interesting to see what that breaks out to be! Lovin' it!

Congratulations Panda!!!! It must be that time of the year, it seems everyone is having babies! Both of my daughters, one of my nurses, my daughters best friend....and it seems every time I turn around at the store or anywhere that I go there's a pregnant woman! hehe :)

You must feel wonderful. I remember being pregnant and even when my daughters told me they were pregnant, we had to do multiple HPT's just to prove it. Then reality didn't really set in until they saw the first ultrasound....I'm still coming to terms with my oldest being pregnant. She keeps having bleeding, but according to the ultrasound everything looks great and they said that a lot of women experience bleeding during pregnancy. I did through my 4th month with my second daughter...

Congratulations again! Let us know your due date! We should have a "virtual baby shower" for her!!! :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
