ZZ - No, I see a BIG difference! You look so much younger, too! Losing weight really takes the aging out of your face!

ZZ, give us a link girl. We want to see too, but it's way too hard to track down your pictures after we've written an 8 page paper.

BG, the bitch is done. I've turned it into turnitin.com. Was that around when you were in school a few years back? If not or for the others, what it is a website many high schools and universities use where students turn in papers and they review the letter combinations against their ever growing data base to see how much of what you've written has been submitted before. Typically my resources, quotes, and a few word combos of come back as seen before but never anything frightening...but it's to stop plagiarism.

Cool for me because I'd never plagiarize but it would suck if you weren’t up for writing.

LOL I bet it is! I might try that on Club Crackers! What made you think to put the pepperoni in the microwave?!?!?

I had read it on a thread on here somewhere (probably in food). I love crispy pepperoni, in fact when I worked at ChuckECheese's we used to put extra pepperonis on top of the pepperoni pizza we send through the oven because they would come out extra crispy. Then we would pick em off and eat em. Gross I know, but don't ask for anymore CEC stories or you might not wanna take the kids there again. ANyhow they got super crispy and crumbly and delicious. Nuke em for about 2 minutes.

If that was around I never used it. Pretty sweet though.

Oh, did I make it sound like it's optional? Oh,no, no. The teachers pick your papers up there, or check on them there if they give you the option to correct after turning it in at the site.

It's REQUIRED.

ZZ you are looking good girl. I love how you included the bugg in your pics lol.

Speaking of which I am very dissapointed that I only burn like 3 calories a minute during sex. I must be doing something wrong. Or maybe I am just getting old.

Interesting that your school uses turnitin.com. There's a whole lot of buzz about them, in that they are using student's intellectual property to grow their database without obtaining permission or providing compensation. It's difficult to justify that they are searching for plagerism when they are guilty of same. As a professional in the field of intellectual property, I would have a big problem with that.

You know I hadn't really thought about that...Isn't there tacit permission when a student enrolls at a school and the school uses the services? If turnitin was selling the works or I were writing something that I could later not publish because it had been posted to that site I'd take acception...

Really I'm sorry to hyjack the thread, but I'd really like to discuss this futher with you.

Maybe via email? or send me some links. I feel like a dumbass, and I hate that feeling. But frankly, I'm so focused on doing the tasks at hand to get my degree, I don't quite have the energy for a riotious debate with my instructors. heheheh...but I like being versed.

Thanks.

      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!!
