Finally made it back on the computer, my power is finally on, it is a whopping 55 degrees in my house. So I'm taking a hot show and a hot cup of tea and going to bed, the evening for work is a bust.

Janet, sorry about Andrew. '

We have a due date on the baby, October 29th, she is barely pregnant and sicker than a dog. The doc said something about people who have twins get sick very early. WTF!!!! are you kidding me!!!, so she will go back in in about 3 weeks, by then we may know more, TWINS, no friggin way, I think I need a drink!

Good Morning Peeps..

Oh Karla - sure hope it's not twins - but that's not always true - I know a couple of girls who were real sick and didn't have twins - so don't let that freak you out..

Not Much to report - Watch idol and Pia one of my early favs did great... I also like Haley... And the girl I Jones aka dianna ross...

dinner was fish & green Beans - sf ice cream - bed ;0)

Hi, guys, how's it going? Anyone interested in moving to a foreign country with me? Somewhere, any where, with cute cabana boys and drinks with little umbrellas where thinking is not a requirement. Somewhere that isn't too hot, too cold, too dirty, too everything. My biggest desire at this point is to curl up in a ball and pretend the world doesn't exist.

Add me to the tired list! Was so sleepy last night I went to bed about 10:30 p.m. Way early for me! I did play Angry Birds on my iTouch, under the covers, until about 11:30 a.m. but that was still an early go to sleep for me. Tired again already and it's only a little after 9 p.m.!!

Then... I always wake up at just about exactly 7 a.m. and I didn't wake up until 7:30 a.m. and was supposed to be at TOPS before 8a.m.! I was a few minutes late. And I gained a pound! I am spinning my wheels. I was sick the past two weeks and hardly ate anything one of those weeks. And still gained a pound. Trying to get back on track.

Hope I'm not starting a 2nd round of this crap.... so tired, and headache last two days. Earl still trying to fight his way out of it too. Exercised 40 minutes yesterday, but didn't do but a few minutes of exercise in the hot tub this morning. Knee hurting too much and back bothering me this morning too! I'm a whiner tonight!

Spent 8 - 10 hrs beading this week including 4 hrs yesterday with 4 of the neighbors trying to make this stupid heart pendant! It's so hard! One lady said she'd teach us because she's made several of them. But she kept leading us astray, so after 4 hours, it was maybe halfway done! And now I'm waiting for a copy of the pattern so I can try and finish it myslef. The SBX barista was finally at work today so I gave her the orange Bracelet I made her. She really liked it.

Karla, hang in there!! Hope it's not TWINS!!

Candice.... is your fan club actually going to let you go on vacation for a week??? LOL

Janet, sorry about your fight with Andrew! He thinks he still has squatting rights there!

Ah Phyl, I'm sorry that you are still feeling the crude! and a pound on top of it. I totally understand your frustration. So nice of you to make the Bracelet for the SBX lady, you have a heart of gold,

Candice what's up, you weren't in all day yesterday?

I don't know about the rest of you, but I am looking forward to my weekend! I am going to take one whole day off and not think about work or school.

It almost smells like spring here, and it is even almost spring like temperature, Granted it is still cold, but it is a different cold. The baby cows are being born, they are so darn cute!!

Hope you have a good day! Phyl, you and I will keep an eye on what we put in our mouths!!!

Good Morning! Feeling a little better this morning. And no headache! Don't know about Water aerobics, though.... I'm going, apparently, because Earl has loaded all my stuff on the golf cart. But, can't be aggravating my knee by jumping around in te pool.

Tomorrow is Alzheimer's walk that we signed up for. I walked most of the 2 mile route last year, but, I know I can't do it tomorrow with this knee hurting as much as it is. Will go and ride the scooter probably.

Food was good yesterday.... Adkins Protein Drink in the morning, went out for lunch with our elderly friends from Ok. One of the specials was 1/2 meat loaf sandwich and Soup. I didn't want the bread and not necessarily the soup, but they brought me the 1/2 slice of meat load with some grilled onions and a little potatoes, so that wasn't too bad. Dinner... Earl made spaghetti.. but, he uses Tomato puree for sauce, had a couple of the small costco meatballs and 2oz angel hair. 1oz cheese in the afternoon w/6 oz wine. And a 70 calorie pudding in the evening w/a cup of tea.

Today, 1 egg w/ a teeny potato patty and coffee. I will probably have a salad for lunch. But, bad news is... "Cowboy BBQ" next door this afternoon.... hot dogs, Beans, potato salad. I will keep my portions very small, but have to have a taste of the homemade potato salad!

Choir practice this afternoon, and maybe I'll do some beading!

Hope everyone has a GREAT day!

Well...when life throws you lemons...make a double shot absolut vodka lemonade out of it. Before I get ANY lectures about transfer addiction, I haven't had a single drop of alcohol in almost a year...but today put me over the edge. So I came home and told Lee that I was going to drink my supper tonight. He asked me how that was different from any other night thinking he was funny. I wasn't amused!!! Now I think it is kind of funny...though I think anything is funny right now.

So I still haven't heard anything from insurance. I was really hoping some miracle would happen, but I just keep waiting. Well considering that it has taken me a while to type this I think I should probably go. I'll check in when I can feel my tongue!

      Hey everyone!
      I’m new here! Looking for some friends! 🥰

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

      3. Doughgurl

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      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!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
