Any plans this weekend?

How is everyone doing? Any big plans for the weekend? I have plans to paint my living room and my daughter has a soccer tournament this weekend so that should keep us busy. How is everyone doing in this process? I'm 11 months out and still 2 lbs from goal. I hope I make it by my 1 year appointment in July. I see Blake Campbell has surgery Monday!!! I'll keep you in my prayers and good luck. So come out all you who don't post to much and don't be afraid and post. Let us know where your at in the process and what plans you have for this weekend and your goals for next week. My goals are to good to the gym 4 times next week. This week I only went 3 times, and to get in all my water and vitamins. I'll be waiting for a lot of responses. Bye Hope everyone has a great Weekend!!!

Good morning Melissa. The only plans I have is working . It's my weekend. I have to work every other weekend because I work in nursing. I work 3rd shift and have for almost 12 yrs. I am 4 months out and I have lost about 80 lbs. I have lost a total of 168 lbs. I had to lose some before wls. I was so hopeing to be under 300 this week but I weigh 301. Last week it was 303. I had lost 8 lbs. last week so I figured I wouldn't lose much if any but I lost 2 lbs. I will take it. Have a good day and don't let the paint fumes get you! Cindy

Wow you are doing great!!!! I always loved a big loss in one week!!! Sorry you have to work this weekend. Hope it goes fast for you. Keep up the good work!!

Good Morning to you all here at OH. I am still in the beginning stages of the process and hoping to have surgery before the end of the year. I just had my first RN visit at Mercy and have a diet and exercise appt on the 27th of June. I have my sleep apnea study scheduled for Aug 4th and the pshy evaluation for Aug 9th (I believe). I also have 2 more weigh in's for the 6 month supervised diet thing for the insurance. So I am on my way. As for weekend plans. There is a ton going on. Always things to do around the house since the lack of care before we bought it (we purchased my grandparents house and they were in no shape to do the yard keep up so that is taking sometime to get it back up and all the weeds that spring up overnight) I want to plan some flowers and bushes in a flower garden. Also getting bids on a new roof. Saturday night we are having family over for a barbque for Father's Day due to the fact that father in law has to work Sunday. Should be a good time Deanne

Sounds like you have everything set up for your apponintments. You are on the right track to get your surgery this year. I love to plant flowers sounds like fun. Hope it doesn't rain on us this weekend so we can be outside. Have a good barbque!!!

Not much planned for the weekend. Just some housecleaning, laundry, all that good stuff. I am scheduled to have my surgery on Monday, June 26. I had all my pre-op testing done yesterday. They couldn't get my artery for my ABGs and I thought I was gonna die! I had heard that was painful, but I wasn't expecting what I got!! Oh well, it's one of those things that hurts like hell while you are in the middle of it, but the pain doesn't last. Anyway, I just have to have my pre-op physical with my doctor and make sure I don't gain any weight between now and then.

Wow a little over a week away and you'll be on the losing side. You will also be in my prayers. I had heard the blood gas was really bad to. The nurse said if she hit a nerve it would be bad and if not I would be ok. I got really lucky because I didn't feel anything. Sorry they had a hard time getting it taken. Just remeber it will all be worth it in the end. Hope you have a good weekend. I also have some housecleaning to do so you won't be alone. And on another note... Come on people I know there are more of you out there. Stop just reading and POST!!!

Howdy Boy it is hot today.....the weather has been weird all week! Today I went shopping, I NEEDED a new purse. I have been looking for the last two weeks and I finally found one today But I don't like the wallet I bought for it, so I need to get a new one. Tonight we have a company picnic/party thing for hubby's work......it will be fun for my hubby and kids, it is a hawaiin theme and all my girls have really cute dresses to wear Tomorrow we are gonna transplant two tree's to the side of the house and get some other lawn work/garage stuff done. I sure hope the weather holds out, looks like rain in the afternoon tho. And Sunday will be all about bumming I think. My MIL left after being here a week, and I am ready to have a quiet sit on my butt sorta day! Next weekend we have two days of soccer tournaments for our girls......I hope yours goes well.....I love watching the kids play soccer. We won't see my dad this weekend, but we will probably have a BBQ next weekend and give him a few gifts.....my girls picked out cards and a shirt for hubby, but we don't have anything special planned. I am babysitting a couple kids this summer, so the weekdays are busy, but I am trying to get out and exercise, get vits in and water. Take Care and have a great week jesi

Well your MIL left and mine is coming next week for a whole month. I don't know what I'm going to do because we don't get along at all. I hope you had a good weekend. The soccer tournament was great and my daughter had a lot of fun.

Hi Melissa Not too many plans here this weekend. DH(well, DBF really, but helps with confusion on other boards since DBF means boyfriend and best friend)was home for less than 48 hours and, I have no idea how he does it, but the place is a mess. I will be doing some cleaning and the dogs and I will be trying to keep cool. I am actually hoping for a big rainstorm. Right now I am pretty trapped in the house because of a snake nest outside the one door I USED to use all the time. Snakes literally make me sick. Sometime I need to make a Walmart trip-10 mi. each way) Doesn't that all just sound thrilling? LOL I am working on a notebook for notes and ideas, journal, trigger foods, etc. I am also working on a Household/alien abduction notebook and a Christmas/crafts notebook. ( I REALLY missed our Christmas card exchange this last year!) So if I get too bored, I can always add to those. And there is always the big race on Sunday with all the events leading up to it.
