Saturday Roll Call

Good Morning,

It looks to be another great dsy. Get outside and take a walk. Go to an outside mall and window shop, or start your Christmas shopping. Do Something.

We had to make a fast trip to St. Louis on Thursday. I hope this was the last one for a few weeks. I actually want to stay home for a while. I don't think I have been home for a  total weekend since Paul's party.

Today, I am making a dent in my housework. Whatever doesn't get done today, wll be done tomorrow.

Whats on your agenda? Heres hoping everyone that is under the weather is better. For Georgie, we will see you on the bench, and kathy, hoping the preop diet is going well.

Hugs

Good Morning Illinois,

Just got done baking 6 dozen cookies from an original WWII ration recipie.  They are OK, at least they are not chocolate chip, so I don't have to worry about eating them.

Tonight I am going to a USO dance and going to get my exercise swing dancing all night.

I have to clean the house during the day and pack the car for the display tomorrow.

Well better go and get the cleaning done.

Have a great day and enjoy the weather.

Hello Everyone,

Hope everyone enjoys this beautiful day. 

I had my fill yesterday.  It went well.  I didn't even feel the needle.  I now have 4cc's in my band. I'm pleasantly surprised that I had no problem eating yesterday. 

Today is my mom's and sister's birthday, we are headed to Monty's in Ottawa for their surprise dinner.  I decided that I'm ordering fish.  I think it will be the safest.

Sending everyone who is under the weather healing prayers.

Georgie-your almost there.  If you have any questions please pm me.

Kathy-Your on your way.  Stay busy and drink lost of water.  Whenever you want food go for water.

Lisa-Hope you get all your housework done.

Sheri- Have fun tonight.

Wishing everyone a day/weekend filled with love and happiness.

See no big deal.  The needle was nothing.  And the first couple fills almost no one gets really good restriction.  I didn't till my 5th fill and anxiously waiting for the 6th. 

Deanna, I love Monty's too. Have a great time.

Lisa

Good morning everyone!  It sure is a nice sunny day out there and I'll definitely have to get some exercise outside while I still can!!

Well, today is day five of the pre-op diet and I'm still going strong.  Some moments, it's been a struggle, but I've found ways to push through it.  I've learned that I don't like sugar free cherry jello so much.  I'm going o try some different flavors and maybe I can live with it for a while.  I'm feeling a bit more energy today, which is good because I need to get my house in some kind of order.

Lisa - I do hope that you do get some time to just stay home soon!!  Enjoy this great day!

Sheri - Chocolate chips cookies would be dangerous in my house at any time too!  Sounds like you have a fun weekend ahead of you and I hope you enjoy it!!

Deanna - Have fun at your dinner tonight!!  Fish does sound yummy and I haven't tried it on pre-op yet so I just might have to!  I will tell you tha****er has saved me in some of my difficult moments.  I keep this bottle by me all day and refill as I need to.  Hope your day is good!!

Have a great one everybody!!

Kathy

Hello Illinois!

What  a GORGEOUS day.  Have the house opened up and enjoying this great warm weather.  Was out and around shopping today and working on the house this afternoon. 

It's getting close now!  Silver Cross called yesterday and left pre op instructions and a time to be at the hospital.....ta da  7 am!!!  I'm pumped about that, because, hopefully I'll be one of the firs and will have the rest of the day to recover and get up and start walking.
Hope everyone has a super day.  Kathy, hang in there, you're doing great!  Deanna, I am going to PM you.  I've got a couple of questions.

ENJOY this great weather.  georgie

Yeah!!!  I'm so excited for you.  I know a lot of people are nervouse right before the surgery but I felt nothing but excitement.

It was beautiful today!  Unfortunately, I spent most of the day inside.  I was at the psychology of obesity class at Alexian this morning and then to the gym to workout with personal trainer.  Then, I had a birthday party.  Whew!  It was a whirlwind.  I am definitely getting on my bike tomorrow.  It should be another great day.

I have a tentative surgery date, 11/30.  I have to wait to hear from the hospital for it to be definite.  So Excited!

I don't seem to be getting on line until evening these days, but I do read what you all are writing. I hope everyone who is just post-op is doing OK with as little pain as possible. Those of you who are waiting--it goes faster than you can imagine!

I enjoyed the beautiful day with a bit of time outside. I also worked on a new sweater. In this one, I devised the pattern myself. I hope it turns out!

Take care everyone!
