Tuesday Roll Call
Hello everyone
Well I can't wait till Friday.
I have been really tired and lethargic lately. I don't know exactly why. I'm going to make sure to be more careful about taking my vitamins. I sometimes forget to take them. I hope this will help. Yesterday I had a really bad episode. I threw up everything I ate for lunch. It was not very pleasant. I have been feeling increasingly tight. Which is a good thing I just need to adjust my eating habits.
I'm actually enjoying this cool Fall weather. It's perfect sleeping weather. I put on a pair of sweats I haven't wore since last year and they were REALLY big on me!!! This is the sort of thing I need to keep me going.
Well I hope you all will have a wonderful day.

Good morning Illinois!
My nasty cold has turned into massive nose activity! I'm feeling like I'll loose 20 pounds through drip and blowing!!! If they made a lap band for sinuses, I'd get it installed by noon. I was up all night blowing my shnozola, and now I'm exhausted. Luckily, if history repeats itself, this is the last phase of the cold and I'll be better soon. In other news, I'm continuing to eat normally without much restriction. I've been watching my intake, but I think I will get a fill when I see the doctor in a few weeks. I haven't really gained weight, but I haven't lost any either and I feel it is just a matter of time before I slide back into bad habits. I would like to have 10 or 15 pounds of safety cushion to work with before I take the risk of no resistance. Of course, I am hoping that I can start working out soon and see if I can get that more regular in my life. My wife wants to be involved in that as well, and that is a good thing.
Well, I'm going back to my deepening relationship with the tissue box. Have fun and stay warm.

Good morning Crystal and the rest of Illinois!
Crystal---remember to eat slowly and chew, chew, chew.......vomitting is never fun. The restriction will work for you if you work it.
I am working today, anxiously awaiting a call from the Urology Dept. in Madison to schedule the last (I hope) test. Everyone keep their fingers crossed. The Urology Dept. was still waiting for orders yesterday afternoon. If it is a certain type of test, I can have it done tomorrow morning at 8. If it is another type of test, I will have to wait until NEXT Tuesday.......I am hoping for tomorrow. Time is running out.
Not too much else going on on my world. I am supposed to go to the Cubs game on Friday so I am looking to pull out the "Under Armour".
Everyone have a wonderful day!

Good morning Crystal, Paul, Lisa, Dawn and IL family.
Crystal, I know of the vomiting with the band. It's awful! Chewing your food a lot is the answer. I still have a hard time with chewing my food enough. Restriction is good, but not if it makes you bring up your food.
Dawn, I pray that you can have the test this week. Good luck!
Lisa - Hi to my dear friend. Your always doing something - backyard, shopping or cooking. Of course, got to include working! LOL..
Me, well, all I can say is that my knee is getting better except for the driving and sleeping. Tomorrow is my 3rd shot and from there I will have to see..... Now to get my head into gear and get this weight off - slowly day by day doing the right thing. No snacking and grazing. It's so true what the doctors tell you, not to snack or graze. That is how the weight comes back on. I am a perfect example of that.
Nancy, hope your knee is a bit better!
Stay warm and have a wonderful Tuesday!
Hugs and Love,
Lucy

Good morning Crystal and Illinois!
Chilly morning it is...not looking forward to winter. I wore my winter coat to take Bella out this morning.
Crystal-It is a great feeling to put a piece of clothing on from pre-surgery to find they are now big...WooHoo for you! You are right it is the incentive you need to keep you going. Eventually this new way of eating will become second nature.
Paul-Feel better soon and don't get used to keeping the kleenex too close. Don't want Liz to get jealous.
Lucy-I hope your next shot does the trick.
Lisa-You always keep yourself busy.
Dawn- Hoping you get your appointment for tomorrow so that you can get your problem resolved soon.
There is a stairmaster calling my name....can't wait to get to the gym tonight!
Hope everyone has a great day! Keep warm, keep safe!

Good Morning Crystal and Illinois Friends!
Sorry to be mia recently. I have posted some in the evenings. Mornings seem to be a rush and I haven't figured out why. I think it was due to schedule changes but I am back to my normal schedule so hopefully things will calm down.
Lucy, glad the knee is feeling better. Mine is getting worse. It is now giving out on me. That may move up surgery.
Paul, hope that cold takes the hint to leave!.
Crystal, that feeling of things being too big is great but kind of unreal as well as you start thinking, ok, what do I wear now???? I ran to WalMart after work to pick up a few things and ended up buying some sweat pants and jacket because I had been freezing all day!
Hope everyone is doing ok. Dawn, I am hoping you get to have your test tomorrow.
Got to scoot to work. Have a great day!
