WHATS HAPPENING WEDNESDAY

Still havent heard anything from Janet, I know they have the baby to hold and stuff now but good grief girl you are going to make her sore holding her all the time. lol

 

Haven’t heard anything from Susan yet either...thought for sure  we would have heard her yelling....hope she got her date for surgery today....

 

How many of you are going to watch the president speak tonight ??? shame he couldn’t do it on Friday when there isn’t anything good on t.v. lol

If he would have ask me I would have told him that ...but he didn’t ask.

 

Joe and I spent Tuesday fixing the fence for the chickens we are going to get...not a huge place but we only want about 6 layers..if they lay an egg daily it will be more eggs than we can eat...Joe wants a rooster , I don’t really care except that I told him the first time that sucker attacks me he is a goner...i was attacked by a rooster when I was a kid and I have bee leary of them ever since...i think they are pretty but you don’t need them to get eggs only if you want   to raise baby chickens , which I don’t. too much trouble...and most of them come out to be roosters which you need to decide what to do with them I guess could wring their necks and put them in the freezer...

 

 

SUSIE::::::would have been great to see you last night....I have always thought that Monday nights weren’t  a good night since it is the first day back to work for most people and they are usually tired....but that is what we inherited if we could get a big group of people all at one meeting sometime we might have a discussion about it and a vote...anyway  we will see

Right now don’t worry to much about the sizes of things...things from one brand to another isn’t sized the same way....just know that you will always have to try on things. We are so use to being fat that we just bought something big lol so now that we want things to semi fit we are having a problem finding our size....like I said just try them on...

 

 

LANA::::: lol hello old woman...lol  I was sad to not get to see you last night but when you called me and told me you forgot I thought hey someone like me lol...i guess we are a couple of old ladies and have the right.

Anyway we will see you next month.....maybe you need to put a note on your stove and than way if you go home and start supper you know that you are suppose to come to group. Lol

Love you girl and miss you...it has been 3 months since I saw you now will be four months.

Be sure and talk to us on the board some ok?

 

 

COR:::::: the back to basics and then adding one new food a day, you might be surprised about what it is that is doing the damage....cant answer you about what it is....are you chewing chewing chewing your food. Laying your fork down in between bites. Going  really slow about your eatng when you are new...that includes drinking your protein drinks...S---L---O----W....to the point of being really silly.....but you have to realize  new tummy is like having a new born baby...you really watched what you fed your baby the first little bit especially...so think of the tiny bites you gave your babyand when you were trying to teach them to chew....chew chew chew....now real sure what else I can tell you but know that we are all here for you....go back to the start and start adding things but only one a day....hope you figure itout.....

 

 

 

LOVE AND HUGS

GOD BLESS

It was such a long day, we got picked up at 7am and finally, finally got home about 10pm, ai yi yi.  Our appointments were at 1pm and we were both done and ready to go by 1:30 but had to wait and wait and wait for the ride service, they finally picked us at 4:30 and had to make another run with a couple to drop them off so it was late getting us home,  wont do that again, I know we saved money and it was a blessing but was such a terrible ride, coming home the driver drove so fast that i think he straigtened out some of the curves on our road  haha, anyway, on to some of the news...

Susan appointment went well, when we got there it was already in her chart that she was APPROVED yes I said APPROVED for surgery lol w00t w00t....she was shouting a mile high.  She will get a surgery date some time today,  the girl that schedules Dr. Ferrings dates had to check on the Drs general surgery calendar to make sure it was clear on the date she wants for Susan so she will call Susan today with all the info, w00t w00t!!!

As for my appointment, I guess it went ok, I wasnt in there but 5, maybe 10mins max, I did lose another 13 pounds, w00t w00t...as for me getting that dumping feeling all he said was I was prolly eating to fast or to much, so I dunno,  I really have been watching what I eat, how much I eat and how fast I eat for the last few months now so we'll see I guess. Nothing else they can really do since the insurance wont pay for that new StomphyX procedure to reduce the size of the stoma and Im not a canidate for a revision since my pouch is  normal size so guess i'll just have to deal with it and keep on keeping on. 

Im sure you'll be hearing Susan today after she gets the phone call lol. 

Well I'm off to bed, hope y'all have a great day.

Andy

Good Morning Mimi and Mo...

Boy Mimi do I wish I had lost 25 lbs last month... no it was 12 not 25.  But I guess I will be ok with the 12 better than NONE for sure.  I lost 9 3/4 inches as well.

You were right about the loose shirt but I just can't stand a roll over the top of my pants!! So that's why I wear a looser shirt... or when I set down the buttons pull... not cool for sure! ~ha... I think I will have to lose a bit more before I can wear more snug shirts...

Paul wants chickens real bad too...  He is going to build them a house. I want it to be log or at least log color and a green metal roof like our house is... we just want about half a dozen chickens too. Would love to have a bobby calf as well... but I know I would get attached to it and then not want to do what had to be done! ~ha

Hopefully soon we can go get a load of lime and get it on the yard and garden.  I also need to get out there and get the leaves out of my rock beds around the house... have to do that every Spring by hand... will try and get a real warm day to do it.  I want to get all my yard ornaments out but know it is too early yet....

Well have a lot of chores to do so am going to get out there and get my walking out of the way... Paul said it is to be in the 60's today I sure hope so I need to wash my car real bad!

Have good day dear friends,

Bec

I will go to the farm.....I will go to the farm.....I will go to the farm.
Can you tell I'm trying to get myself psyched?  Lord, how I HATE this.  And I am SUCH a whiner.....

JANET!!!!!  WHERE ARE YOU?????  Is everything ok?  Just give us a second and let us know if everybody is ok.  I'm worried.....and so are the others.  Please?

We sure have a lot of hubby's with issues and that creates issues for the wives.  Susie, Deb, Debbie D and others.  And today Susan will find out her date.  Now we have to see if Andy will post under Susan or if Susan will post under Andy...hmmm.  Anything to keep us on our toes.  lol  Anybody heard from Jeanine yet?  Good to see Tammy ammy check in and Angie too.  I know there are so many others that I've missed....hope all is well.

Gotta go, just wanted to make sure everybody is doing well.  Need to go round up some more possums and show 'em who's boss!  (They are, that's why I run and scream!  lol)

Love to all....

 Hello Everyone,
 Sorry I haven't been posting much, but it's been pretty crazy around here with Miss MacKenzie being born Friday, Noah's baby shower Saturday, and the our Christmas was Sunday. This week I'm trying to spend as much time as possible with Kala before she leaves Sunday night. Please keep her and Lee in your prayers for safe travel.
 Miss MacKenzie is such a beautiful doll. It was amazing and awesome to be apart of the special day with them. They well never know just how much it meant to me.
 Noah's baby shower went great and was alot of fun. I got to see alot of family I hadn't seen in along time. Kala got alot of very cute thing's for Noah. I sure wish I could be there when he is born.
 Our Christmas was alot of fun. We had wall to wall people in my house, great food, alot of laughter, and alot of love, it was a very special day and one I wont soon forget.
 Sorry I can't stay and give you guy's more detail's about all the thing's going on, but we are fixing to go have family picture's taken. I promise as soon as I can I will post more and get some new pic's put up.

 Jan sorry I wasn't able to make it Monday night on top of everything going on around here my one of my toes is infected making it hard for me to walk very much and I'm still not driving yet. I have to go Friday to Springfield to get my stitches out and hopefully he can give me something else to help fight the infection.

 Susan CONGRATS I hope you get a close date. I'm so excited for you.

Bec I promise as soon as I get a minute I will get together with you and Janet so we can make some plan's.

I hope EVERYONE has a wonderful BLESSED day.

Love and Hugs

Well overworke and underpaid stayed home today. I have a doctors appointment so I couldn't work. I am having my first bone scan today. I want to make sure I keep my bones strong.
I have been shifting things from room to room here trying to make this place look decent before Saturday. I hope everyone leaves their glasses home so they won't see the clutter.
I may break down and ask  DH to help me clean ,he's really good at it.  I just don't throw stuff out,I dust it and leave it there. Everyone will have to give me advice on where to put some of my junk. Maybe extra opinions will help me toss some stuff. I did agree to toss a small round table. It made DH happy.
I am looking forward to Saturday.I hope you can all make it.
