WHATS HAPPENING TUESDAY

Last night was the COF support meeting and , thanks for the ones of you that came.. and I am thankful for you all but was really disappointing to not have but 11 people there and 5 of those were support people,
Where where all of you???? The weather was nice , so that isn’t a reason...and when I can drive as far as I do or Brenda and Randy can drive from Harrison  really don’t know what is the problem....I sent out emails and posted on the board. So if you looked at your email or got on line any then im sure that you saw....lol maybe you were like Lana, she had told us a couple of days ago that she would be there but she didn’t apprear and right after group she called me lol said she god off work sort of late and took this girl home went home and fixed supper and sat down, about 7:30 she looked up and ask her husband , where was I suppose to be tonight....she said she didn’t know why in the world it took her brain that long to process it... told her she was getting senile.. anyway that accounts for one ...so where were you????  It really was sort of disheartening. ....

 

We went to Lowes before group and bought fencing to put around our chicken pen and garden....some T-posts and fasteners.    Once we get that done we will figure out how we are going to build the chicken coop and see what lumber we have, and go buy what we don’t have..found a guy that has laying hens for 7.00 a piece...good price. He said they are all laying an egg a day...we are going to put the chicken coop for the time being where we are plowing up for the garden after it is plowed so they will dig and scratch and eat as many of the weeds and grass as they can...then when we get ready to plant we will move them over to another section  

 

Not a lot else to write about my day.  except .. I sure hope next months support group is better , as in, more people...we had a good time and talked a lot...but is always nice to have more there.....is it because it is on Monday cause we are open to maybe changing nights the next  time we are up to renewing our meeting place ...

 

 

TAMMY-AMMY::::::so good to see you online even if it was only for a short time. that is sad about your son....hopefully he doesn’t get sick with meningitis like the boys did up there. I thought about him when they were saying that some boys died from it there.

Tell Janet that if she has time to text to get online and tell us hi anyway...she doesn’t get on much at all anymore it seems....i know that Mike is having surgery soon ...

 

 

 

BEC:::::: well I can tell from the picture that Sandy posted that the shirt you have on is a mile too big for you girl....it looks like it is just hanging on you....that might be why you don’t see it....get rid of the big clothes. Doesn’t hurt for your clothes to touch your body you know. Lol I know before I lost weight mine didn’t either and we think we are hiding but it just makes us look bigger lol .

And I can tell in your face that you are losing lots....

My surgerversary is in August but I know it wasn’t August...it was either the first of June or the First of July I think it was June....but will probably do that about having the picnic on Sunday, going to Dr. Hs group meeting ...he had us to bring our lab work up to him and gave it to Margie and he counted it as our yearly appointment unless we had a problem...anyway sounds like a plan doesn’t it....unless the people that are checking into our reunion this year want to have it  at that time....Sugar and Janet are suspose to be checking into some places.

 

Not much new at the lawn and garden show...saw some cute ideas but nothing that I hadn’t really seen before. 

Bec in just a couple of weeks daylight savings time starts so you can get outside earlier in the morning  lol Bec did I see somewhere you said that you lost 25 pounds this month. Well good grief girl that is a lot you know...

 

 

SUSIE::::: now doesn’t that sound silly , that you keep buying smaller clothes but cant see that you are getting littler...lol  im not kidding pictures of yourself really help see the difference...

 

Sorry but the wrinkles on all parts of the body are a part of being heavy for so long that we stretched the skin out;;and the face is no exception. Lol...that is why im shooting for a face lift....i don’t like looking like im 80 when I feel 40 ...

Five pounds a month is great....you were considered a light weight and we don’t lose weight as fast as someone that had a couple of hundred to lose...so don’t beat yourself up silly... I kept trying to compare myself with my friend who was over 450 when she had surgery and I was 272 she was losing 30 and 50 pounds and I was losing 2 and 5 pounds lol  but if I lost like she did all I would need is three months and I would be skinny lol

Any way don’t compare...you are doing great.

 

 

SUSANANDY:  that is you twos names ...we don’t know who is who anymore , but I don’t know who each of your are but I dontguess you all don’t either. Lol

Yeah they both love their nannas....have to sort of limit them or that is all they would eat

 

Thanks for starting the coffee for group tonight....cant wait to hear what you all find out tomorrow.....

 

 

SANDY:::: was Sunday when we went to the garden show.....hey your pictures you took at Becs....girl you look good. Don’t let  anyone tell you that you look sick , cause you don’t. you look good.....you need to change your avatar.... so does Bec....

Would have been fun to go to the show with you....

 

 

PEGGY::::::HOPE things are all going well with the doctors appointments....i have told my pcp that I want her to quit sending me to specialist for things. That im healthy as a horse and they cant find anything wrong with me so don’t worry...lol maybe im too mean for anything to stay on me lol ..

 

 

Hope George and his family learned a much needed lesson ab out getting in your way and scaring you....im sure they have and wont return...unless they are gathering a bigger clan together ...lol

Just kidding you , don’t freak out....

 

 

LOVE AND HUGS

GOD BLESS AND TAKECARE AND EXPECT A MIRACLE

Sorry I didn't make the meeting last night. I was just so exhausted I did not think I could stay awake for the trip home. Mondays are a bit tough for me to get there. I will do try my best to be there next time.
I did buy some size 12 pants yesterday and I can wear them. I also bought some 14's and they are too small. I do not understand the way they size things. This time I went to thrift stores. I always buy a few things that are to small for later. That way I will have a head start on the next size down. I just need to stay better organized so I know what I have.

Have a great day even if it rains its supposed to be warmer.

Hello Missouri,
OK, the old woman has officially lost her mind. I talked on the board yesterday and said I'd be at the meeting last night. Got off work late and had to take my fellow carpooler home in Nixa. Got to my house at
6:00 and just got into my after work routine and fixed supper, changed my clothes and sat down to read and at 7:30 I popped up and said - John, where was I supposed to be tonight at 6:30? He didn't remember either. I feel so embarassed that I'm so absent-minded but I think it is age-related - hope it's not early onset senility!!! I told Jan I have CRS - can't remember
s---!!! But this is a new all-time forgetting thing. Especially since I remembered it earlier in the day.
One time last summer I made a date to meet Monique for dinner and totally forgot that - and I had remembered it the day before. But this time takes the cake since I remembered it earlier in the day and then just plain forgot in the bustle of after work routine.
So sorry, Jan, and everyone. I really did intend to be there. I've missed all of you and now it's another month til the next one. I swear, I'm putting the meeting on my calendar at school so it will pop-up at 4:30 so maybe (hopefully) I can keep it on my mind for two hours!!!
Hugs to all of you.
Lana

Hello to all....Just wanted to pop in and say hello....and to thank you Jan for the PM.....Its been another Yucky day....So I dont know whats going on....thinking that maybe with me adding regular food in now, that my pouch is saying....woo-up..thats not what you been feeding me for 2 months and I dont like it!!! lol
So I think that I just going to start over and try again.....
Today I had a couple of ounces of Deli Turkey and my Crystal Light laced w/Isopure....and that didnt work either. Wonder if maybe I have just a very sensitive pouch for the past few weeks....All I know is that Im just not going to stress on this....Im going to let this pass and just keep on trying to get the protein in somehow...It just dont make any sense...its the same protein that I got when I first started this journey....
Anyway....Has anyone heard from Jeanine??? Its been awhile since she has been on..
How is Sugar doing?? Miss her posts....
Well the residents at the home that Im working at are going the plant there seeds tomorrow, for there garden in the spring....they are so excited...lol I think its great to see them get so excited....guess that how it is when you get to that stage in your life....shamefull huh!
Well its time to go and rest up for Bingo tonight and then get things ready for the weekend away again...this time its for fun....Going to Moms in TX, its her B-Day on the 2nd, so I going to go down and spend it with her...
Love and Hugs
