Friday Roll Call
Good Friday Morning.
It looks like the rain will end soon fot you up in the burbs, It has stopped here already. Then a cooler weekend in store for all of us. Maybe we can turn the AC off for the final time. Hopefully we won't need the furnaces on for a while. It would be nice to give the utilities a break, and our wallets.
All I have going today is work, then out to dinner. No plans for the weekend either.
What are all you doing?
Monoca G, hoping your test go great.
Crystal and Nancy, may you both get good relief with the miagranes.
Paul, its great to see you on the board again.
Have a safe and hydrated day.
Huggers,
Lisa

At work at the present. We got a taste of what retirement is like if the two of us are home together - 3 medical apts, 3 stores for things and then the circus. I cannot even remember if we have anything tonight, I hope not because I am tired.
I do have the Walk from Obesity tomorrow at the Oakbrook Park District and then we serve food to the stage team for the Sat. service. Sunday my neice who is in the Navy (the one that stayed with us for a while) is having her bridal shower

Hello everyone
I am so glad it's Friday. I hate month end.
This weekend I have to take it easy because I have to try my migraine medicine only I have to cut it in half. He doesn't want me to be driving until I know what my symptoms are. So I will be relaxing at home.
Well I will be getting back to work. Have a great day

Good Morning Illinois!
It was so beautiful yesterday...then I wake this morning to this wet mess. I want to crawl back into the bed, but my messy house is telling me otherwise.
My surgery angel and I will be joining Christine & Co for the "Walk From Obesity". I'm looking forward to meeting her!
Have a great weekend Illinois!!!

Good Morning all!
Today is going to be a quick trip to the Chiropractor (still dealing with the ribs, but feeling much better), then home to work on some wood turning for the fall shows. I have a massage client this evening and that's about it. I coach a class in Lindenhurst tomorrow morning and then I'll go watch Nic play in a soccer event. Sunday we are planning to go to Brookfield Zoo!
I hope everybody has a great weekend and gets to enjoy the beginning of the new season!

Good Mornin Everyone!!
Today is a raining and boring day here. I am so so tired I have been up since 5:30 am with my DD,she doesn't believe in sleep. If she takes a nap I might do like 15 or 20 mins on the Wii fit. Then lay down and take a lil nap too. I hate being so tired all the time. I know part of the reason I am tired all the time(low iron)but I hate taking my prescrip Iron pills cause it makes me go #2 alot and I am stay at home mom to a 3 yr old so sittin on the pot all day long is out of the question LOL!!! I think part of my tiredness is that my thyroid level is to low,my old dr said level was fine. But I have some of the symptons and my bio and adopted mom(who r sisters) both had thyroid probs and so did my grandma. I go see my new Dr next Wednesday I am goin to have her do blood work too. If not this time next month when I go for my 2nd month visit.

Good Afternoon Lisa and everyone!
It is Friday and I am off work! Cant get much better than that. I did have to get up this morning and take my car in to get serviced. It needed an oil change and is making funny noises. Of course, would it make funny noises this morning...... NOOOOO. So I still have the mysterious noise when it shows up. Sigh. Now I am back home for a few hours. I have an appointment at the pain clinic later today.
I have to agree with all of you that are tired. Me too! It is so hard to get out of bed in the morning. I am fighting it every morning. Anemia and low iron are the pits.
Tomorrow I have my check class so I have to get up even earlier. Hopefully I will not be doing this
to my alarm clock or arguing with my bed as to why I must leave it. The last few mornings the bed has won. 
Everyone have a great day!

Hi Lisa.
I have been so busy the past 2 days with going back to work.
Yesterday I had my appointment with Dr. Guske. YAY, he took my J-tube out and it was painless. I was expecting it to hurt a lot, and then I saw him throwing it out in the garbage can. I didn't feel a thing! He took out the stitches out of one of the drain areas. I took the other one out a week ago. I asked him to check to make sure it was all out.
He is pleased with my recovery and weight loss. I lost 22 pounds now since my surgery. YAY!!!
I got a nice hug from my Dr. McDreamy! I will see him again on November 1st for my post-op visit.
So far so good with eating. No vomiting. I am so happy that my band is out of my body.
This weekend plans with my sister tomorrow and probably Mom on Sunday.
Then next week packing for my trip to Orlando FL on Saturday for a work conference. I will be able to go to their outdoor pool. YAY!!!!!!
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend. Yes, Monica best wishes for your test this weekend. You can do it! Crystal and Nancy - hope your migraines diminish.
Lisa - girl take me with you to dinner! I'll fly over tonight. LOL..
Lucy - a happy DS'er!

Pre-op/RNY day/pre DS day/current/goal- Realize Band 5/15/08; RNY 6/8/05, Removal Band and RNY to DS 8/25/10. RNY & Band surgeon was Dr. Guske.
My last Friday night before the RNY. I had expected to spend it shopping for grocery/pharmacy stuff for post-op, but a buddy just gave us 3 tickets to a local Second City review. So, I figure, might as well go have a laugh... this is the first night of my "three-week vacation."
I sneaked in four small M&Ms on my pre-op diet (which permits real food) tonight, but it seems I'm just at the max for today's carbs. No more carbs tonight. I think my tastes have already begun to change because they tasted odd. Maybe a result of the high-protein, low-carb diet? Well, at least I was "mindful" when eating. That's progress!
Also, co-workers order pizza in today for lunch, and I said "I'll take a pass. Brought my lunch today." I still sat with them for a break. That's never happened before: Me & Pizza in a room without me chowing down the pie.
I'm loving this cool, blustery weather. Very dramatic.
Happy weekend!
