Friday Roll Call

Good Morning Delaware!

It's F-R-I-D-A-Y !!!

We made it!!!  I am so ready for a 3 day weekend!
Today will be an easy day at work.  We had employee appreciation day yesterday.  My division (commissary) made the finger foods, mini sandwiches, brushetta, fruit salad, cheese and crackers.  My boss brought the BEER!!!  No I didn't drink any.  But it was a nice thought of taking time to thank each employee for their hard work and dedication.

Enjoy your day! 

Leaving for New Jersey today for a very fancy wedding.  Got a new black dress and am looking forward to wearing it.  That sure is a chance from the past

I hope everyone has a safe and relaxing weekend.  DO SOMETHING FOR YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ellen

Ellen,

Are we going to get to see a picture??!!

Good morning all ! Hope all has a great weekend.  I have a busy weekend planned but we will see if my plans turn out. I have to go by work today and fill out paperwork for leave of absencence  without pay.  I am out of time now.   I am having a yard sale this weekend to dejunk. My neighbor is helping me with this. Sunday we may put Bob in his wheelchair and take him to Pot Nets for their Labor Day Event. He loves Fireworks ! I have to finish up school shopping  yet. It is 10 days before our cruise. Bob is nervous about getting sick on board but I think he is looking forward to going. So much to do and so little time. Bob really demands my time so most of my time is spent with him. Sometimes not doing nothing but just being there. This is a 24/7 job in its own. You guys are doing a great job on here and special thanks goes out to all for your prayers. Debbie Dr.S. is looking out for your best interest. What he is telling you is the truth . That is what I love about him !  I really like a Dr. that tells it like it is. Think of protein to replace them carbs. I think we all are carb addicts but need to change our way of thinking. No one ever said it was easy . There is no easy way out ! This is a hard journey but well worth taking. Breakfast is important so work on that. You might just want to do a protein shake and not sweat it in the mornings. Amy with your hours of work it is very hard to eat right. It takes planning but you can do it. Platuoes are normal in this journey and part of the pot holes in the road. Hang in there for it will pass. Michele sign up for the OH event. There is several people going from Delaware. I will be going if all is ok with Bob. You will have a great time and come back refreshed. I would encourage all to go if you can. I will work on getting a group together when I come back from my cruise. In the meantime all get registered for they fill up fast. They have wonderful people coming . It will be an event not to miss. BJ nice seeing you last night at open house. Bob and I talked with Alexus last night. I think help is there with her. You are a strong woman and I really admire how you stand up. YOU GO GIRL !!!!  Debbie C. I would post the article if I knew how. Sorry but I will get you a copy. The OH magazine will be available at both New Life WLS Support Groups in September.  Sorry for one long post . I will be back strong soon and answer all. I will post again before our cruise. Hope ours is as good as yours was Ellen. Again thanks for all your support, prayers and keeping this board going. Have a blessed holiday weekend. See you lighter. Joanne

Joanne, I was so pleased to hear from you!!!!!  I am sure keeping the prayers going that you and Bob will go on your cruise and have a wonderfult ime-you certainly deserve it!

 Which OH event are you referring to-I want to go to one of them. Can anyone advise me which one Joanne is referring to-the date and where????  I didn't want to attend it alone so its great to hear that others are interested in going.  I guess I should sign up for it??

Can anyone advise what foods I can eat to get proteins NOT carbs?

Hva a safe holiday!  Debbie

Thank you Judy bit it looks like the discount code is only for the Philly event or am I missing something??  I want to go to the Va event.  BUT I love Eggfaces' website.  Thanks so much for giving that to me!

Have a safe holiday and hope to meet you someday!
