Morning Roll call!

Good Morning! How are you doing today? I am well. Feeling great! Thought I'd do some roll call questions today. You all gave me such good answers yesterday now I am going to order me some Green Mountain coffee and try to find some scrapple! 1. What is your favorite drink? And your favorite food? 2. Prior to wls what was your favorite drink? and favorite food? 3. what is the one thing you can't stand now that you loved before? that is if you even tried it! 4. Now that you have lost the weight what is the one thing you have always wanted to do, told yourself you would do it when you lost weight, and have you do it yet or are you going to do it?? Can't wait to see your answers! Here's mine.. 1. My favorite drink is coffee. My favorite food is peanut butter crackers. 2. Mountain dew and prime rib with baked pot and salad. I can still eat the prime rib but not the pot. or salad. Maybe salad later but I don't do well with lettuce yet. 3. Coca cola - even diet. Yep I tried one sip enough to gag me. Or tea.. gags me too. 4. Parasailing. I haven't done it because I was sick but I am doing it this summer. I'll have to post pictures. Julie

Good morning, Julie! All those answers yesterday made me regret NOT liking coffee! It sounds so yummy! Anyhoo...here are my answers for today... 1. What is your favorite drink? And your favorite food? -- My favorite drink is Diet Coke/Pepsi from a soda fountain. I think I single-handedly keep my local Quik Chek in business buying their 44 oz. soda! -- My favorite food is pretty much anything my mother-in-law makes. That is saying something, huh? I have several restaurants that I LOVE and I would ALWAYS prefer to eat out than eating home. But not when my MIL cooks! She is a Goddess! 2. Prior to wls what was your favorite drink? and favorite food? -- Prior to wls, my favorite drink was the same as it is now. My favorite food was probably sushi (since my MIL was not here pre-WLS. If she was, I would have to say her food was my favorite pre-op food, as well). 3. what is the one thing you can't stand now that you loved before? that is if you even tried it! -- Bacon. I used to LOVE bacon pre-op but the thought and smell of it now makes me queasy. 4. Now that you have lost the weight what is the one thing you have always wanted to do, told yourself you would do it when you lost weight, and have you do it yet or are you going to do it?? -- This is a really, really interesting question and I cannot wait to here what other people say about this. But I cannot think of anything for myself. I know I used to say, "It is a good thing I am not thin because I would wear feathers and sh*t!" And, while I do not wear feathers, I DO dress a little risque at times. Sadly, though, I think I NEVER thought I would lose weight...so I never entertained the "If I lose weight I will..." discussion. Great question, Jules! Have a great day everyone! Hugs, Jersey

Robin, Now listening to you brag on your MIL cooking makes me think.. I could put up with the door open! Enjoy the food, get recipes and post for us! I love to cook and wouldn't mind getting new recipes.. hmmm now I have thought of a roll call question for tommorrow. How is your baby doing? I've been praying.. Julie

Julie: It is all Indian cooking. If you are interested, I will try to get you some recipes! Jersey Kid is not great today...his lips are really in bad shape...lots of sores on them...but his personality has improved a bit so he must be feeling a bit better. Thank you SO MUCH for asking about him!! Love ya! Jersey

I'll play today although I am in a real 'funk'....Today is one of those days where a good cry is just around the corner 1. My favorite drink is DIET COKE - has been since it first came out. My favorite food now is chicken (I now cluck and have sprouted feathers since I eat so much of it). Chicken is what I have the least problem eating. 2. Prior to WLS my favorite drink(s) were DIET COKE and an occasional glass of wine. My favorite foods BEEF and PIZZA and CHIPS and, and, and, and - LOL 3. Chinese food. I thought I was going to 4. Buy sexy lingerie (you know the bustier/garter belt/fishnet stockings). Although I'm not sure they make bustiers for FLAT-CHESTED women - LOL. Rose from PA

I know how you feel about the good cry... grab the tissues and let it flow, girlfriend!

Good morning/afternoon everyone! Today it is cooler and overcast here. My daughter Brittany is having her "senior day" at softball. It is our last home game and she is almost done playing for the high school....Sad how quick they grow up! Maybe I will post pictures if they turn out..... here are my answers: 1. What is your favorite drink? And your favorite food? My favorite food is chili from Wendy's and coffee is my favorite drink! 2. Prior to wls what was your favorite drink? and favorite food? Coffee, and water.... chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream...... 3. what is the one thing you can't stand now that you loved before? that is if you even tried it! I have a hard time with spicy foods now. My nose runs and even the mildest things burn... 4. Now that you have lost the weight what is the one thing you have always wanted to do, told yourself you would do it when you lost weight, and have you do it yet or are you going to do it?? I always said when I lose weight I would be in more photo's...when I was heavy I hardly ever had my picture taken. Now I am in alot..... Hugs Chris

I know how you feel about softball we lost 6 seniors this year it was a very sad talk at the end of the game nobody wanted to leave and have it end.., we made it to state with two games left and we got terrably beat by a team from a small town (I bet all they do there is play softball) everybody was crying the girls the moms....Jessica is going to be a Jr next year and Jordan my other daughter is just starting this year as a freshman but they have already told her she is good enough to make Varsity, it will be so nice to have them both on the same team at least for a while.... HAVE A GREAT DAY TORI

Rose: I'm with ya on needing a good cry... I think I'm in the same funk.... not sure how I got there, and not sure how to get out of it... but I'm trying... 1. What is your favorite drink? And your favorite food? Diet Dr. Pepper (shame, shame... you all know my name) LF Cheese Sticks and Sundried Tomato & Basil Wheat Thins 2. Prior to wls what was your favorite drink? and favorite food? Diet Pepsi/Dr. Pepper ice cream, I suppose 3. What is the one thing you can't stand now that you loved before? that is if you even tried it! Ice Cream puts me in a virtual coma... too much sugar & I need a nap 4. Now that you have lost the weight what is the one thing you have always wanted to do, told yourself you would do it when you lost weight, and have you do it yet or are you going to do it?? I never really limited myself before, I was restricted by size, but I'd try anything. I have become more serious about "settling down" and finding a husband. I don't think I felt "worth it" before. Now I know it is what I want. I deserve it & I am SO worth it. I know there is someone out there who deserves to be taken care of by me. Still trying to find him, but I am hopeful.

Ice Cream does that to me too! Have you tried the no sugar added stuff? I can do like a 1/4 cup of that and be fine! Good luck with the hubby search!! You TOTALLY Deserve it!
