Tuesday Roll Call
Hello everyone
I am counting down the days till the weekend. I promised myself I would take one day this weekend and not do anything for the house...we'll see how that goes.
I went to the gym yesterday...FINALLY!!!! I am glad I went. I kept trying to come up with excuses not to go. They were valid reasons but a person always had reasons not to workout. So even though I was tired and had a million things to do I went. I like the new gym. They have little fans on the treadmill. Which is nice because I don't sweat as much. There are individual changing rooms in the locker room. And what I love most of all...no cell phones on the gym floor!!! I'm also going to hire a trainer. They aren't as much as I thought...$25 an hour. I might even take a yoga class. It looked very relaxing.
I did gain weight...but I wasn't working out and my eating has been bad. So back to the grind stone.
I just got my booklet outlining whats covered and what not covered with my health insurance and it didn't specifically say it wouldn't cover WLS but it didn't say it would...no that would be too easy. I will have to call and find out. I need to know if future fills will be covered...if not it will cost me $250....eeeek.
Well back to work...have a great day.

Good Morning.
This is my last day of vacation. We went to new training yesterday, and then, again tomorrow. The added training is helping. At least I realize what I am doing. I am sure the new program will work out ok. The bad thing is, where we were able to handle 40-60 people in a day, now, it will be 10-12 per worker. Our clients won't be happy.
Crystal, enjoy your new gym.
Dawn, I am happy for you that you were able to get rid of your work problems. Is everyone still talking?
Today, after I finish a couple of things around the house, I am going to get my hair straightened. This will be a first for me. If, i don't like it, it will grow out within 2 months.
Have a great safe day,
HUGGERS,
LISA

Sandy, I am concerned about what U R saying about things that do not stay down. . .
It is interesting about how some docs start patients out on their PO diet differently. I had to crush for 6 months and I followed through with it and my DH could go to pills at 3 months with a different doc. I never had a vomiting issue and he did) (he has a tendancy to wolf down foods even 8 yrs PO RNY).

Good morning Crystal and the rest of Illinois!
Glad to hear you like the gym Crystal. I really wish I could afford one. I am going to keep looking and watching the "Groupons" to see if I can find something that will work for me. They have machines available at Olivia's school for $ 1.00 per visit but the hours are NOT conducive to my schedule.
Yes Lisa....everyone here is still talking and I think the meeting went reather well. YOu could tell right off who the negative troublemaker(s) was. I just stressed that in a small envoronment, we do not have time or patience for negativity and back-stabbing. We need positive, productive people *****spect each other. So far, so good.
Work is very busy today and I am on lunch right now.
I need to get my house picked up and come up with various pot-luck ideas for the many things we have going on for the long weekend. We have things going on every day from Thursday to Monday. Monday being the Lawn Tractor Pulls in our driveway. Fun stuff!
Gotta get back now...break time is over.
Everyone have a splendid day!

Dawn- I hope you can find some thing that will suit your needs. My gym is $29 a month. There is a Cardinal right by my house too but it is in a mall of all places and the treadmills face out so everyone in the mall can see you working out. That is not something that I am willing to do. There are bigger fancier gyms for $60 a month in Champaign but I am afraid the drive over there will make me lazy in the Winter. I want to give myself as little excuses as possible.
I hate those work environments where you have all that back-stabbing. It was like that at my old job. But my department wasn't like that. I didn't encourage that...my boss unfortunately made it clear she not only encouraged that behavior but rewarded it.

Good Evening Everyone!
I am surfacing tonight. Last night I finished my wall hanging and my cube looks very patriotic! Today I went to the grocery store after work and then off to PT. My training is going well. Ideally, the new system will be great but realistically it does not work perfectly from what I am told so time will tell.
Crystal, I am glad you found a gym that you are happy with. IT sounds nice. Do try to plan a "me" day this weekend. You need one. You have been on the go for over a month without a break and it is time to kick back and relax a day.
Lisa, I am glad your training is going well. I know you will have to listen to some grumbling but I think it is great that you can concentrate on fewer people at each site during each visit. It reduces the herd mentality. Enjoy your last day of vacation!
Sandy, I am sorry you are having so many problems. Remember that your pouch is just like a baby's tummy. Slowly introduce foods. Bland is best at first and of course, I am not a huge help on recipes as I was on purees and soft food for 3 months.
Dawn, I am hoping you are finding work more enjoyable! I am sure it is a relief to have the "children" gone. I hope that the remaining people can work together and be a team. That helps so much. You weekend sounds busy but fun!
