WHATS HAPPENING THURSDAY
My daughter & family leave today. I am ok just a bit tearful right now. Knowing that I won't see her & Jamie for 2 years is hard to handle.
They will spend this evening in Spf then on to Texas to see his folks.
I am starting to go stir crazy as I am not allowed to drive until after my dr's visit tuesday. Aunt took me to pharmacy & grocery store this am and it wore me out. It doesn't look like he tightened me up any! Oh well at last the hernia's are fixed. My incision looks good so far and healing well. I am down to 1 vicodin & 1 benadryl every 6 hours or so. It is the pits having so many allergies to meds.
Love to all!

Shannon,
I am sending you out a huge hug and some love for your sadness today. I cried everytime I had to leave my family here when I was driving back to Atlanta. I steered, and snotted and balled up to 300 miles sometimes....It's a wonder I didn't get pulled over with suspicion of drunk driving :) LOL...
I am glad you are feeling better now...I go tomorrow for my tests to determine what is wrong with me.

Good evening OH peeps, I know I haven't posted on this thread for awhile I have been lurking though.
I am getting used to my new job now, it's getting easier now that I know what to expect and what I need to do. I really like being a para and working with speical needs kids. I know it can be challenging at times but it is rewarding. I also work with other kids in the classroom which is nice too. I'm really looking forward to celebrating Halloween with the kids. I even changed my schedule around so I could work on the day they get to come dressed up and have their party (i know I'm crazy). It's just that for many, many years I haven't been able to really enjoy Halloween because I was too big to find a costume that would fit me so I always avoided parties and stuff but not this year. I am going to be Dorthoy of the Wizzard of OZ and I found a costume at a Halloween store that fits me and it's really cute I know the kids will like it. My niece is also having a big party the week before and I'm hoping to get to go to that as well. I will be taking lots of pictures!
Hey my dogs even have costumes....LOL
We are leaving tomorrow to go to KC for the weekend. I have lots of people to see and things to do so I'm sure I will have a wonderful weekend.
I was so shocked the other day when I decided to try on a pair of size 16 Old Navy jeans and they fit! I bought them about a month ago and at that time they didn't fit. I call them my skinny jeans cause they make me look skinny in them. I'm going to wear them this weekend when I visit my family. I love showing off my new Bod!!!! Just wish I could get rid of the excess skin that's the next thing I have to do that is major I can't stand it. I would be able to wear much smaller clothes especially below the waist if I didn't have my extra tummy and thighs....lol
I have a lot of people who ask me about my WLS and if I had any regrets and I tell everyone the only regret I have is that I didn't do it sooner even with everything I went through. Some people don't like to tell others they had wls but for me I say I want to tell the whole world about my new life and how wls gave back my life. People need to know about these things especially if we want them to stop sterotyping us also they may need to have wls or know someone who does or who would benifit from it and may be too afraid to have the surgery. It is up to us who have had the surgery to support those who are debating to have it or not. Something we say may be their deciding factor that may save their life. I am not shy at all about telling my story to people the good and the bad.
Does anyone have any good ground beef recipes? This is about the only meat I can eat and know it's not going to make me sick. I try to make different things using ground beef but I'm running out of ideas.
Well, I hope everyone had a great week TGIF (tomorrow).....I have to take one of my pups to the groomer when we go to KC and also Sat. there is a dog event in Brookside called "Strut with your mut" it's a one mile walk/run I never could do it cause I was too heavy not this year I could walk it more than once.....I won't be watching from the side lines this year I'm going to be struttin my stuff!!!!!! (oh, I mean mut)...LOL
Take care and God bless.....
PS. Deb D. call me girl want to get together when I am in town this weekend.
