Hello everyone

I'm feeling much better today.  I had no dizziness yesterday and even went out to Walgreens.  I'm still feeling very full after only a little bit food.  I must be still swollen from surgery.  My BP is still normal.  I guess I keep thinking it will get high again..

Today I'm going to go out to Target get some walking in and some shopping.

Well I hope you all have a great day.

Good morning all!

I am getting ready to start training for my job, but wanted to jump on here for a bit.

I am still having stomach problems.  I don't know what to think.  I am not nervous at all about my job, so I have no idea what it is.

My niece is due on November 9th, so I will be a great aunt again!

Sorry this is short and sweet, but I have to get my butt to moving.

Have a great day all!

Good morning Carla and the rest of IL,
Nice to see you again, I take it you are feeling better now, Glad you will be here this summer, maybe I will see  you at one of the summer meet and greets, I am sure we will have one some where

Dee have a great first day at work, hope you tummy feels better soon,

Crystal you are doing great, I don't know anything about the band but I  heard that you will be swollen for a few weeks, I know with the RNY is did not eat much the first few months,

Well for me today I hit my 200 lbs lost, I am so happy in fact I am 2 lbs under my goal, so I will from now on take it as it comes, I feel for me I have lost all I need to but If my body thinks other wise so be it, My family thinks that I am thin enough but will see what DR, as to say about it next month when I go to  see her  for my 18 month  check up.

today I have to run to walmart and do some house cleaning other that that not much going on,
Yesterday we went to my Sons house for dinner he made Mexican food which was very good,
He is a better cook then his wife, We also had cake and Ice cream for my oldest granddaughter she turned 13 yesterday, I had one teaspoon of ice cream and took one bite of the choc, cake and it was so nasty it left a bad taste in my mouth, That was the first time taking a bit of cake, I am glad that I did not like it, guess my taste has changed,

Well not much else going on, Hope everyone has a great day
Hugs to all
Janet

      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!

 Good Morning Carla and Illinois Friends!

Carla, did you hear about our snowstorm yesterday?  If so, are you sure you still want to come??? If so, would you PLEASE bring warm weather with you.    Hope to see you at one of the meet and greets. 

Dee, hope your first day at work goes great!

Janet, 200 lbs!  Whoo hoo!  Way to go!

Crystal, it sounds like you are doing great and starting to feel good.  Glad you are getting out.  

As I said yesterday, I have to call and schedule ear surgery for one of my cats today.  He will not be a happy camper.

I hope everyone has a good day as we start back to another week of work.

Good morning Carla and the rest of Illinois!

If you will be here in June, are you going to attend the big OH event in Rosemont on the 12th & 13th?  It sounds like a lot of fun and I know a few of us are planning on attending.

I am back at work after a pretty good weekend.  I got to spend all day Saturday with David.  We tried the new  bd's Mongolian Grill in Rockford (it is OK, but we like Flat Top better....), went to Wal-Mar****ched "A Huaunting in Connecticut" then he got a driving lesson driving home 45 miles on highway 20 in the slush/ice/snow/ick.  At one point as he started sliding towards the ditch, I though he was going to have to clean hi pants out.  I don't normally do that kind of Driver's Ed, but hopefully, that was the last chance that he would get to try that kind of driving before he gets his license in May.

Today is the last day that my boss will be gone, so tomorrow, I go back to my shortened hours.  The money stinks, but the time with the kids is awesome!

We have another roofer coming tonight for another bid.....wish us luck!  So far, all bids are WAY more than we were counting on.

Monica should be in Vegas by now, I'm sure she is having a great time and enjoying the weather and time with her mom.

Everyone have a magnificent day and tell someone that you love them!

Good Morning,

I hope everyone is well.  My Spring Break is over and I am back at work.  It didn't seem long enough.  Saturday, we went to Janesville, WI and hung out with my DD and her family.  We had a good time.  My DD, DGD and I did some karaoke.  (again)  My DD made me try Guitar Hero.  Because of me, we got pelted with stuff from the audience a few times.  My DD found a song for me I could actually play along with successfully.  We left in time to drive through sleet and rain.

Yesterday, we stopped at Wal-Mart and Aldi.  I got a new swim suit and a new pair of pants.  I have been trying really hard not to buy too much in the way of new clothes.  I am still weeding through my old clothes to remove the ones that are too big.  Soon, I really need to get them to Goodwill.

Not much else happening.  I am trying to go more low-carb.  We will see how that will work.  I should track on Fit Day again, but hate trying to figure out how much of what I have when I cook something myself and didn't measure all the ingredients. (like I made a mixture of cooked lean ground beef, a bit of onion, some marinara sauce, and LF ricotta cheese, topped off with some FF mozzarella.  I layered the componets and baked it)  I think it will give me a lasagna taste without the pasta.  I didn't measure anything, so who knows.

I wish you all a happy day.
