Good Morning,

Steven, it really is a problem to load the pictures. I a;ways have them too.

It sounds like everyone had a good day yesterday.

I seen the Specialist yesterday. She has me going for an EEG on Friday afternoon, the main prep for it is no caffine or chocolate before the test is done, and no conditioner on the hair. I think i can comply with that. She also reccommeded to take Ginger pills for the light=headness. Other then an asprin, which I take daily too.

Today, I am going on a road trip with Monica, Scott and Morgan. We are heading for the beach at New Buffalo, Michigan. Last goofoff day for Morgan, she starts school on Thursday

Have a great day.

Huggers,
LISA

Hello everyone

So far I am liking my new job.  Good points, the people are very friendly, I get my own office )no cubicle), we have flex time, and I no longer have to use my vacation time when I'm sick.   The bad points, I miss my old co-workers, it's wayyyy too quiet, it's still too cold here too!!!

They are nice there and have a good sense of humor.  There were three of us sitting my boss's office getting trained on invoicing.  It was really quiet and my stomach kept making noises...it was being really vocal...hahaha.  Well they thought my stomach was grumbling cause I was hungry.  What my stomach was doing was making those gurgling noises that LapBand people have sometimes (maybe RNY people get them too).  Well every time it got quiet my stomach would choose that time to make loud noises.  Everyone including me was laughing...hahaha.  I didn't try to explain.  It's too soon.  I let them think I was hungry.

This week I will visit the gym that is a couple of blocks away.  I have to see if I want to join this gym. 

Steven- I bought all my pants at Goodwill.  In fact my dress pants I am wearing right now are from Goodwill.  That way you can replenish your wardrobe fairly quickly.  My Goodwill stuff looks and is just as good as new...some times they still have the tags on them so they are brand new.  Most of my tops are store bought.  I bought a really nice corduroy jacket at Goodwill too.

Lisa-  So they can't figure out your dizziness??  Have you tried the Bonine pills.  They really helped make the dizziness go away when I had a dizzy spell.

Hi Steven,

did you see my post yesterday with the link to shrink an avatar?  I think it works well and was fairly easy.  I might be able to ask questions, or if you just can't do it and want to email me your pic, I could shrink and email back to you.  Just let me know.  Good luck!  Georgie

good morning IL!

Chloe heads home today.  Roxie and I will miss her...but she'll be bck on weekends again.  I know she is going to get busier, socially, at school and those weekend will prbly stretch out...but all part of the growing process!  Lisa, she starts school on Thurs, too.  Must be a central IL thing.  I think Manteno schools start next week.

Steven, good luck with your wardrobe shopping.  Crystal gives a good idea bout goodwill.  I have read a lot of people have wonderful luck there.

Crystal, so glad your job is starting off on a good note.  Where I work, we have about 12 people in the office, 5 of which are salespeople on the phones, and it is fairly quiet here, but we do have our moments!  Hopefully no big drama in your office.....but sometimes that is very hard to get around! 

Hope everyone else is doing great.  Have a wonderful day. 

georgie

Good morning everyone.
This is from Aug 5th!! On Jeannie's(dietician) scale(5 lbs heavier) I was down 4 lbs n Dr A was down 8.8 lbs. Dr A thinks I go for the sleeve instead of the band. It would be less up kept with me living farther away. So I think I am goin for it. Thursday I meet with Dr Brown for my psych appt.  I made an appt with my pcp so I can get on some anxiety meds,cause even Dr A said that would be great for me in the long run to get on them now. I told him I was afraid it I got on them now he would let me have surgery. He said no it would be great if I was on them now. I passed my psych eval n I go tomorrow to see if my pcp can get me on some anti-anxiety meds too.  All I have left is 2 more support groups,my endo n my surgeon what to meet with my mom since she is my next of kin n talk to her about surgery I guess

 Good Afternoon Everyone!

Steven, it is always a good feeling to get rid of clothing that is too big!    Have fun finding replacement clothing.  We cant have you running around naked.  

Lisa, I am sorry you are still searching for answers on your dizziness.  I just love how they keep sending you for more tests!  Have fun at the beach!  

Crystal, I am glad you are liking your job.  As I said earlier, once you get to know people it wont be as quiet.  The benefits sound great!  You may have to work on livening up the joint!  

Georgie, it is always sad for summer to wind to an end.  I am sure you will miss the Chloe visits.  I agree, it is hard to watch them grow up and move on.  

Vickie, it sounds like your plans are moving along.  I have heard good things about the sleeve.  

For me, not much is happening today.  Work and PT.  Enough to keep me busy but not out of trouble.    Everyone have a great day!

I chose green for my color today because that is what we saw at the Chgo Botanic Garden. What a great day. We have been there before and hardly have scratched what to see there and today was the same thing. We had lunch at the grill there at the garden and shared the burger outside on their patio and I will tell you that the grass fed beef that they get it from is tasteless. Give me corn fed beef any day of the week. YUCK, Peeuuee! Did I say it was bad? Plus they over cooked it and it was dry. We both have a feeling that we will be bobbing our heads here soon as we walked over 5 miles today. But, I have to be looking through a bead catalog for beads to buy for some necklaces that I want to make.

Need to go and open the box from Amazon and look at the two books that I bought, one being "The Help" and the other is a book that is based on a movie that comes out on Dec 28th called "The War Horse".
