Hello everyone!  I just wanted to tell you that I got to meet Connie and Kay today and what wonderful ladies they both are!  It was so nice to sit outside and just chat for a while. Even though my darling hubby was super quiet....he's normally like that at first because he's deaf in one ear and sometimes finds it hard to keep up with conversations.  that's fine, I had fun and that's what counts right?  LOL

Then we headed over to my sister's house where I helped her make eggrolls and then we got into our swim suits and lounged in her pool for while.  I have to say when I took my towel off my sister was like, "wow, look at that tiny waist!"  I was flattered and then my son Jacob says, "mom that suit really makes your legs look skinny too!"  LOL  Flattery will get you everywhere...LOL
Then we ate....we had bbq'd pork ribs and I ate one and then took too big of a bite and didn't chew well enough and I was in some serious pain because it got stuck!  Finally after about 1/2 hour I had to throw up and then I felt a little better, but aout 45 minutes later I had to throw up again it was just slime and the foamies.  After that I felt much better.  My sister felt terrible, even though I told her that it wasn't her fault at all. lol.  The boys, just Tyler and Jacob, had a blast and played SO nice together in the pool.  It was a great day, minus the hour and a half I was sick....lol

Sorry Monica that you had such a bad time with food. I remember my first time this happened to me I was at 6 flags last Aug with my Brother and GS. We ate and I snacked on what they ordered because I knew there was nothing I should or could eat. Well I did it any way and I paid dearly for it for about 2 hrs. I just about had my brother talked into having lapband done until he seen this. I tried to explain to him I made a mistake and knew it when I made the choice! So anyway I just want to say sorry for your pain! And to remind you when this happens you are suppose to do liquids for a little bit then mushies then solid foods, any way this is what most drs recommend! Good luck! It does get easier but for some reason it takes awhile to remember to take that small bite and chew chew chew ! Exspecially when you are enjoying the moment with family or friends!

Hi Monica, Sorry your visit with your sister was interuped with the food episode, but belive me. it happens and there is nothing you can do about it. I still can't remember to eat small bites and chew , chew, chew each bit all the time. I am glad you enjoyed yourself otherwise. I am so glad you met Connie and Kay. Connie is an awesome lady, BTW, I know how your husband feels. I am also totally deaf in one ear, and lose threads of conversations all the time.  Hugs

Oh Monica, I know how you felt with the food I still forget to take small bites and chew chew,  Glad you and  your family had a nice visit with you sister and Connie and Kay they are great ladies,

      Success begins with wise choices I make,I will not let noncompliance be my mistake, The surgery I had was to assist me in changes. My compliance is for a success long range, So I will think before I decide to cheat. Remember the goals I want to meet. For this surgery is not something I was force to do It was what I wanted for a healthy life!
