Debbie how are you? I've been wondering how you've been doing. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone Sunday - I'm sort of stalled right now and have an appointment for fill number 3 on Monday afternoon.

See you Sunday!

Hi Guys. I'm not able to attend the lunch. I'm really disappointed. I could you the support right now. This is my Ministers last day and they asked me to sing at 1:00 so there is just no way I can do it. I would really like to meet sometime in the future if you are meeting again. I connect with a woman in Belleville and one inPeterbrough and they would both love to join yous for lunch. please let me know when your doing this again. Hope

Great to see you too Loriely. I hope you are all fixed up real soon. Maybe I'll see you at Papps on November 4th too.

My daughter loves that I'm hanging with you guys. She thinks you're all very cool.

Donna your daughter is a sweetheart and I wish I had one like her.

Hope, please join us on the 4th - I need these get-togethers too - they are the tonic that helps give me the added inspiration that I find I need right now.

Hi Gang

You have all been pretty quiet lately and I was wondering if you wanted to get together again for a Sunday lunch. A friend of mine said there was a nice place called The Palm in Port Hope.

I would love to see you. Let me know.:thumbup:

I am counting calories, duh! and am finally losing some weight. I think the light has finally come on. I have lost 5 lbs this week. I hope it lasts.

I don't think I can do a lunch until mid May as there is so much going on the next few weekends.

Well done Donna - 5 pounds on you is significant. Mid May sounds fine by me. Just got a small fill today and hope to see the evening restriction last a bit longer. We shall see - want to get this show on the road again too.

      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!!
