PJTP: Ebony, that soy protein powder is called "Naturade". They have it in vanilla and chocolate (I prefer vanilla for my 'berry' smoothies). I get it at Sam's Club

MOrning all!

Plain - It is still so far down on my list of movies, I doubt it will ever bubble to the top.

Ebony - Big Ideas in Science sounds like a fun course! Organizational behaviour - bleck!

Kat - thanks for the G4E update...it makes my flabby skin issues seem somewhat selfish.:cursing: Sorry your work day sucked...

Well, time to be working....although I don't wanna. I don't wanna!

PS...roll call: sick? KC? GoneforNow? CC? Pooly? Ktork?SMSmith

You are missed.

I'm off for my pre-op visit with my plastic surgeon, to finalise the details of what I'm having done. I only have 6 weeks to go now, so getting really excited!! I've lost even more weight off my boobs, so I'm going to ask him about some small implants. I don't want little boobs!! I still want my honkers (would really feel something was missing without them), I just want them to sit up where they belong again, instead of these deflated old balloons flapping about on my chest *shudders*

Morning!

Fanny - how exciting; keep us posted on the decisions and progress.

As for me, it's a good thing I buy cleaners, toilet paper, and kleenex in bulk - my mother is visiting and she and DH are both sick - nausea and headaches....I'm exhausted from cleaning up, and doing laundry. I'm taking today off to tend to the sick and maybe, just maybe, catch up on my sleep....

Well according to the doc, they won't be small implants!! I told him I wanted my E cups back again (only sitting in the right place) and to achieve that, I'm going to have to go for the 400ml implants. I "tried them on" inside my bra and OMG they looked HUGE! Not 100% sure I want to go that big, but it did only properly fill up my baggy bra and that was what I asked for. It's weird to think that when I bought this bra, it was way too small and gave me that horrid double-boobage line. I had to wait a couple of months after buying them before I could wear them and now the cups are only half full *sigh* Not buying new bras at this point though - will wait till after the op and get refitted properly.

There is no way I would go back to being as big as I was before. I have suffered from some drooping, but not as bad as I had worried about---so sticking with them as they are!!! A DD is more than enough....is hard enough to buy that cup size in a smaller band size. I can find tons of 40-48 DD but try dropping below the 40 and they become scarce.

Is another rainy morning---kind of hoping the rain continues today----we have another late game tonight, I would not cry over it being rescheduled!!!

I happened to look down, as I typed, and I sure do need to do my nails!!! Scary!

Better get things ready to go. Will see y'all soon!

Wow big busy day today, we have our fundraiser at the Eldorado for my agency. Tom Farly the brother of Chris Farly is our guest speaker so were all going to lunch with him. Yes I will be good! Then tonight is the dinner. Long day ahead I can see me dragging tomorrow. Hope you are all doing well!

PJTP...Hi Everyone! :thumbup:

Thanks, Plain - I'll pick some up this weekend to try. Definately the vanilla for me...

So good to hear things are moving forward for you, Fanny! I was considering doing the surgery this year, but after a consultation with a surgeon, I've decided to hold off. Mostly because of finances - there just isn't enough in the budget right now with college bills, and my DD comes first with me. Plus, this will give me a chance to see what I can do with my workouts to continue re-shaping my body, and I'm still about 25 lbs from my goal weight. My DH actually admitted he was worried about me possibly having surgery this year because he's afraid I may be changing too much too fast for my body to handle it. Funny what they will admit when they think it's "safe" to do so...

Hi again! Have fun at the fundraising event - and have a wonderful dinner!

Enjoying the relatively mild weather we've gotten the past couple of days, hoping it goes through until the weekend. Nursing a sore right hip the last two days - think I overdid it just a tad on my 5k, but I've been walking so I don't get too stiff. My DH teasingly says it's arthritis - I'm hoping not! I think I'm too young (at 46) to be dealing with that...

Still getting smaller (not lighter, but smaller) and it's kinda nice, but kinda weird at the same time. Work has been quiet, which is very nice. School has started up again and is keeping me busy.

DH is running for the school board in our community and that's keeping the entire family busy. Whew! I think I'm tired just typing this, let alone living it! :crying:

I told him I wanted my E cups back again (only sitting in the right place) and to achieve that, I'm going to have to go for the 400ml implants. I "tried them on" inside my bra and OMG they looked HUGE! Not buying new bras at this point though - will wait till after the op and get refitted properly.

So are you reconsidering the size? I'd love to have 'the girls' hoisted back where they belong, but that isn't going to happen - Tummytuck is a more pressing need - and that's at least 1 year away.........

I know what you mean on the bra shopping...when I find one that fits and is on sale, I buy multiple..

Nails - you mean chipped, splitting, uneven, different lengths isn't the way they should be???

Then tonight is the dinner. Long day ahead I can see me dragging tomorrow. Hope you are all doing well!

Did you enjoy the fundraiser?

Glad to hear that work has been quiet; keep your head down and your eyes and ears open for new opportunities to get outta that toxic environment!

I hear you on the PS and delaying due to $$. How do you fell about DH's comment???

OK people, it's Friday - let's just get through it, so that we can enjoy our weekends!

The inventor of coffee should be given a Nobel prize (posthumously, obviously).

Why do I live where there is even the remote possibility of snow - let alone the annual deluge?

How much money will I REALLY need to retire and maintain (make that, improve) my lifestyle and afford lots of international travelling??

In the debate between lower cost or going 'green', which is the right choice? Why can't it be both 'green' AND less expensive?

PJTP...I'm back! :closedeyes:

I feel you on that - I want the 'girls' hoisted back up higher again, but for me as well, the tummy is the priority. I think I'd drop another clothing size or two if I didn't have the 'pouch' sitting in front of me!

I know what you mean on the bra shopping...when I find one that fits and is on sale, I buy multiple..

I've done that too - but my size keeps changing! A couple of the DDD's I've bought recently are already getting baggy. Not a pretty thought...I don't want to lose much more in the chest.

Nails - you mean chipped, splitting, uneven, different lengths isn't the way they should be???

ROFLMBO - my hands resemble that remark as well.

Glad to hear that work has been quiet; keep your head down and your eyes and ears open for new opportunities to get outta that toxic environment!

Absolutely - still looking closer to home...

I hear you on the PS and delaying due to $$. How do you fell about DH's comment???

I was a bit taken aback...I thought he'd be gung-ho on the subject of surgery, but I also think he's a bit worried about the physical effects of so much rapid change all at once. He definately enjoys having a new, slimmer wife and the extra attention I'm getting. He's always been a bit competitive, and he says now he's gotta step HIS game up to make sure I stay put. I'm not opposed to that, but I don't want him to become paranoid and strange about it...

OK people, it's Friday - let's just get through it, so that we can enjoy our weekends!

Weekends are MADE for enjoying!

Even though I don't drink a LOT of coffee, I have to agree...sometimes nothing else will do!

ROFLOL...

How much money will I REALLY need to retire and maintain (make that, improve) my lifestyle and afford lots of international travelling??

I'd like to know the answer to that - I'd love to travel more!

In the debate between lower cost or going 'green', which is the right choice? Why can't it be both 'green' AND less expensive?

Agreed! When I was researching a new car, I looked at the Toyota Prius - but it was SO much more expensive, I just couldn't afford it. I did get something more efficient than my old car, but I wish I'd been able to go the full distance so to speak...

NSV...sitting at my desk with my legs crossed at the knee and my leg isn't going to sleep. It's actually COMFORTABLE to sit like this...

Never thought I'd be able to say that...I do my band!:w00t:

PJTP...I'm back! :closedeyes:

Whoo- hoo - Im not alone in the PJTP world! It is getting slower and slower in here...we need a jump start. Where is everyone? heartfire? Kat? Plain? Sick? Slim? Bristle? KC? Pool? CC? and so on and so on...................come on, guys. Are you saying (thorugh your silence) that you don't enjoy our witty repartee? Don't want to know the lives and loves of your fellow bandsters? TALK TO ME!!!

Love the NSV!!

Noticing that the room is empty, Tapshoes takes centerstage, grabs the mic and belts out show tunes, and then dressed in a killer danceoutfit, dances up a storm the likes of which haven't been since since Gene Kelly was in his prime.

Exhausted, but ecstatic, Tapshoes, wipes her brow, and leaves the stage................

Yay I vote for more Fridays, fundraiser was great but yesterday was so tired could not put two sentences together. Great skill in the professional work place. This weekend will consist of some work, some study (MFT test) and some fun. (I like the fun part have to deal with the other parts). Have a great weekend all I will check in later!
