Sunday Roll Call
Omar
Good luck tomorrow! My surgery was on a Monday as well. I was so excited but did get the jitters on Sunday. I think it is normal. Just keep thinking about the awesome ride ahead of you. I don't know how much sleep you will get tonight. Hopefully, you will be able to sleep. I didn't. Prayers to you and your surgeon for a trouble free surgery and a speedy recovery. Remember the mantra walk, walk, walk and sip, sip, sip. The walking gets that gas out of your system faster!

Good morning. I am up early cause of work... UGH. Everything at work is fine and the month closed yay! but now I cant get back to bed.
Lucy, I am so sorry to hear about your wrist. If it isn't one thing it's another. :( I hope you get better quickly.
Randy, you are so thoughtful. I appreciate your prayers :)
I need to get a better handle on eatting. Sounds crazy cause Ive been eatting my whole life, but I have thrown up once a day for the past two days. It must be that I am eating too fast but I dont think that I am eating too fast. It seems like when I eat solids it has to be very mushy still almost pureed in order to go down ok, even though I am supposed to be on soft foods now. Maybe I am just not ready for soft foods yet, I am not sure.
Halloween was great! Instead of going house to house in the neighborhood we took our little Darth Vadar to some friends houses and had him trick-or-treat there. He had so much fun and kept talking about "my candy" in the car. We hardly got any trick-or-treators at the house, we have a whole bowl full of candy left and it needs to leave STAT! DH has been munching on candy and he really shouldnt be.
Today I need to go grocery shopping. I am looking forward to getting some fish.
I hope you all have a great day :)

Hi Crystal. I went through the same with eating after my RNY. I was swallowing too big bites. You will adjust. It gets easier.
I am learning how to dress with one hand. It's hard to do.
Have a good day.

There is no hurry to eat solid food. I was on soft/pureed foods for 3 months. Your stomach needs time to heal. My surgeon did not believe in solid foods until after 3 months. It was a long 3 months but I love to say I have a pouch of steel. I personally think the faster you ru**** the more eating problems you will have. Just some "food for thought"

Good morning Lucy and Illinois!
Did you remember to re-set your clocks?
Lucy, I'm sorry to hear you fell and broke your wrist. I hope the pain does not last long.
Randy, I too continue to say prayers for all my OH friends and their families. Prayers don't cost a thing yet are extremely important.
Omar, it is normal to be nervous and excited at the same time. You will be in great hands tomorrow.
Crystal, I didn't have RNY but please be sure to eat small bites and eat slowly.
Sheri, enjoy your lunch with your friend.
Today is Haydens birthday party and we will be going there later. I've got to stop and get a couple of mylar balloons on my way.
Hope you all have a great day!

Same days it doesn't pay to chew the restraints off... 
Good early afternoon everyone!
I am back from church and weekly shopping and am ready to kick back for the rest of the day. Lucy, I am so sorry to hear about your wrist. You and I sound related. If it is not one thing it is another.
I don't know about you, but I sure get tired of hurting and having something wrong with me. I sure would love to know what "normal" feels like. Probably never will. 
Randy, what a lovely prayer for everyone. Support is what we all need. The support I get from here, keeps me going through the day.
I had LOTS of trick or treaters last night. More than usual. I ran out of goodies before 1 hour was up. OOPS. I had been down in the number in previous few years so I only bought for 50. Should have gone for my usual 100. Oh well. I just turned off the light when I ran out. There were plenty of older kids out --- they need to learn that when you get into your teens, you are too old to trick or treat from house to house. It takes it away from the little ones in my opinion. I enjoy seeing the little ones. One of my cats helped greet every trick or treater. I have never seen her do that before. She seemed to think that was part of her job. So it was a fun evening.
Have a good day and a great week!
