There is a training ride and kick-off party this weekend at Texas Motor Speedway for the MS150, and we are supposed to have a high in the upper 40's and low in the lower 30's that day! UGH! That is cold for us Texans in March! I'm still going, though. I'll dress warm and see what I can tolerate and then just hang out and socialize.

Are you going, B? Good luck...I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you get that call!

Hey, I got me an IM stalker from putting my IM address in my profile on this site.

I allowed her to talk to me breifly a week ago, and today told her nicely I don't have time for idle chit chat and pretty much was told to fuck myself.

Nice.

Just because I said access to my IM address doesn't give you an instant friend she thought I was being bitchy. Me?!

I know...I am such a wuss when it comes to cold! LOL But I am going! I'll wear my tights, Under Armor shirts and hoodie, balaclava, gloves, toesties...and hopefully won't freeze! LOL

I betcha turnout is not-so-good because of the temperature, though. I hope I'm wrong on that, but I don't think so.

Thanks J - Got the first phone call earlier today. Discussed my salary requirements, so I'm waiting on another phone call on whether he's going to give me what I need...

BG - It's snowing bunches here.

TX - Probably not. I have to be in seattle next week, LAX the following, and I might need to sneak another trip to Chi-town in, so I need to spend the weekend with my loovely wife and recovering puppy...

So how do I search her name and see what kind of psycho posts she has on here?

There used to be a search feature but I can't seem to find it anymore.

okay stalker is a bit overstated, but for real, who needs that kind of stress? Ugh.

Not gone, just revamped. Top right...go to Advanced Search and search on the right by poster name.

Found it. She must use a different name on here. Perhaps my post will bait her, eh?

Whatever, again, I've got stuff to do.

Thanks Stef.

      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.

        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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
