WHATS HAPPENING SATURDAY
Hey hey hey, whats up? Not many people are talking lately are they…..hope Joe gets a deer tomorrow so we arent left here all day by ourselves…
A couple of my grandsons, Micheles boys are here with me ….they want out of Houston , which I don’t blame them but I told them that this is the first day of them being men….they cant come and live off mimi and joe joe forever. That we will find a job even if it is something they don’t want to do , and then they find something else. so hopefully they are wanting to get their lives straight…
Well this is the 3rd and final Friday the 13th this year. Lol are any of you superstitious ? I don’t think im superstitious but don’t like mice or rats. Lol I can pick up a snake but don’t want anything to do with a mouse yuck
Tomorrow night , Saturday, opening day of deer season, we also have the annual deer hunters supper put on by the Fire Department….it is to raise money for the fire department…they have 3 really nice prizes that you by raffle tickets for…they are a dollar apiece ….our of 4 times we have gone we have won one of the prizes twice. One year a new prelit Christmas tree and 4 boxes of decorations. , 3 wreaths, all sorts of Christmas decorations.
Then one year we won 52 hour long massages…wow that was nice. Joe and I fought over them until I said I think since we won one of them maybe we can afford the second one. Lol ..
I walked (with my walker in front of me) around the block today…havent been able to do that in a long long time. My leg was hurting when I got back but wasn’t hurting like it use to. Different pain. Wound up taking my narcotics, even tho I didn’t want to ….it was getting too bad lol I guess iv turned into a wuse
JO:::::: we are all going to believe with you that everything is ok concerning the polyps ….we are all thankfull too.
Jo that is the diet we are suppose to be on for the rest of our lives….High protein and low carbs , you can have the carbs that are in green veggies and in fruit but not in pasta, bread etc. as was told to me it is always protein first…. Nothing white, lots of green veggies ….but our mantra is Protein first , protein first. \
Thanks for the good wishes….hugs to you.
Jeanie-Rae::::::you will be able to control yourself better about the carbs after you have the surgery….the tool will help you resist things. Especially at first , you start thinking you can walk on water lol …no matter what you do you lose weight but later on it does get a little harder but you always remember you have the tool to help you lose that you didn’t have before. Exercise is one of the biggest keys too.
Thanks for the encouragement I really need it sometimes…..I woke up last night in pretty bad pain and crying so I gave in and too two of my pain pills …..maybe I am trying to rush things.

There's a new hockey team in town now and hubby has season tickets. I'm lovin' it because I get some alone time when he goes to the game. We went to Firs****ch yesterday. I had a free meal coming. I ordered a salad and forgot to tell them to serve the dressing on the side. I was full in no time so brought it home. Didn't taste very good later on. We will go some place after church tomorrow for my BD. Today I'm going to make Chicken & Dumplings, an old WW recipe. You cut up biscuits for the dumplings.
Jeanie-Rae, I agree with Jan that the surgery helps you resits carbs. I'm 16 months out and have experimented a little too much with foods. I haven't gained any weight but not losing so it's time to take charge. I have been sampling foods I used to like but find most of them don't taste like I remember. Sugar doesn't make me dump but it does give me headaches, puts me in a coma and makes my tummy ache.
I've been reading a lot about carbs and I'm ready to get back to business. Carbs are not my friend. Going forward I'm going to limit my carbs to 50 or less a day and hope I get the fat moving out. I also need to exercise more regularly. No more excuses.
My husband can eat anything and not gain weight. He does have high cholesterhol and take meds for it to get it down. I told him this morning as he chowed down on a monster apple filled pastry that after the holidays, I will not buy his junk food. He needs to eat healthy too. He agreed but will he really give up his sweet rolls, cookies and Snickers??? He will have to buy them himself. He likes my healthy desserts but when he's eating junk I hate to "waste" my healthy stuff on him.

Sorry I have been absent but a lot has been going on. Hubby is fine, just needs new legs. LOL I have kept you in my prayers and God has been good to you. Sounds like you overdid it yesterday. Dont be afraid to take the pain pills if you need them. Soon you wont need them.
I have my yearly appt with Dr.H on Tuesday. Dont have much to tell him except I feel fine and my labs are excellent.
My sister in florida had open Rny 2 weeks ago and is having buyers remorse really bad. Of course she is also a sick lady who has spinal stenosis and r. arthritis and is over 300 pounds and has not been able to move or do anything for 5 years. At present she is in a nursing home for rehab. Hope everyone will keep her in your prayers.
God bless!!! Colette
