Wow! What'd you do, stay up past midnight just so you could be the first to say Happy Easter?
Happy Easter to you too sweetheart! Babe, don't critisize your 8 lbs! That is absolutely fantastic! You just started your diet on April 1st and it's just the 12th. If I had that quick of a success, I wouldn't had needed WLS! But then...I didn't have a mom that would help me out with those labels...lol!
All.....
Good morning...and yes, Happy Easter! I kept hitting that darn snooze button this morning! I guess I didn't REALLY need to be up at 5:30! LOL! Bill and I are drying to get our morning liquid go-go juice in...his choice is coffee, mine is one of my decaf hot mocha java protein drinks. Then it'll be change my bandages & get dressed to go. Tiff is picking us up at 8. Our plane doesn't leave until 11:50 so that gives us a little bit of time to see the grandkids on Easter. Between plane changes, ect. We'll get in to Rochester ~3 (4 our time). That will be plenty of time to get checked in and have dinner at a decent time. Fortunately, there's a restaurant in the hotel that we really like.
Bill & I aren't nearly as hopeful this round as we were the last time. Dr. Mangan, on the phone, blamed my RNY (2004) and my gall bladder (2002) for all the symptoms I have...which didn't start until 2007 (directly after my small bowel ischemia!!). I have to have the 24 urine collection test done again..he didn't like the results before. He is also having me meet with an endocrinologist/dietician. Hello! I could have peed in a jug here in Indiana and I already have an endocrinologist AND a dietician!! I asked to have a hernia specialist added. He reluctantly agreed. That is the only thing that makes this trip have any hope as far as I'm concerned. $1,500 is abit much to go up there and just talk with 3 people and pee in a bottle..huh? So please everyone. Please pray that someone up there will know what is happening & how to fix it.
Ellen had returned my call yesterday but we weren't home when she did. She left a message letting me know that they are doing ok...one day at a time. She sounded better than she had all week so maybe she was able to get some sleep. I hope so. When I called her house, Dana answered the phone (Ellen was at the grocery store). He sounded like a lost pup. Please keep him in your prayers too.
You all have a good day today.

Happy Easter everyone.
Tiff - great job on the weight loss! 8 pounds in less than 2 weeks is absolutely nothing to sneeze at!
Sherri - have a safe trip to Mayo. You're right - you could have saved the money and seen the specialists here and peed in a local jug! LOL Let's hope they come up with something this time.
Think I am going back to bed for a bit. We stayed up quite late last night as we were rearranging our bedroom. It looks good, and I'll fini**** later today. I have started my spring cleaning - doing one room at a time starting with our bedroom.
Have a great day everyone.

Happy Easter everyone!! I love easter but this year I am just not into it, thinking its probably because I have been working so much. I decided to skip cooking this year, because my son had the option of going to his girlfriends parents home, sure glad I did cause I am feeling a bit under the weather today. I have a head cold nothing major just an annoying. Hubby is going to clean up my grill for me today so maybe I will cook out for him and my young son tonight, sounds better than a big meal to me anyway lol.
We all took my grandma to lunch yesterday as it was her birthday, it was nice to be together. I bought her a spring jacket from Walmart so while I was there I tried on a pair of jeans that were on clearance in a size 14...too big! I really think sizes have changed over the years though because I am wearing size 16 jeans that are really old from my aunt and they fit perfectly but anything new I need a 14 or less....have you noticed this???
I also started my spring cleaning yesterday, I started in the easiest room though..the living room lol. Today I pledge to tackle my laundry room and kitchen. I had my husband install me a cabinet in my laundry room above the washer and dryer a month or so ago thinking I would keep my pots and pans in there, well its not working out the way I wanted it to because the cabinet is too high so I will switch things around and purge today.

33 lbs lost prior to surgery!
Awesome on the 8 lbs Tiffany!! Keep up the good work.
Sherri - Good luck at Mayo! I hope they figure everything out for you.
Christie - I hope you had a good nap this morning! I was up super late too but can't seem to fall back to sleep.
Jeannie - Wanna come start my spring cleaning too? LOL J/k
Happy Easter everyone. Just stopping in to say Hi. I've not been sleeping worth a darn lately again and I'm almost maxed out on my sleep meds soo I'll do. Guess I just won't sleep *shrug*. I don't use the meds every night because I don't want to build a tolerance up to it but I'm starting to anyways. It stinks but oh well. One day I'll get back to normal sleeping patterns hopefully. Not much happening here for me though, I'm home alone because DH had to work today since his job only considers Good Friday a holiday, not Easter. Thats really about all just hanging out today, will try and get a nap in I guess since I'm so tired.
