Good Morning Everyone,
The Phillies were awesome last night.  I am struggling with mild pain, but not like I had been, except that most of the pain is in my butt from sitting most of the day.  

This weekend is seeing me do my grades, and watching, hopefully, more Phillies games.

Hugs,
Trish

Morning all! Here I am again...working on 3 hours of sleep.

Yesterday was a roller coaster day. Getting my surgery date was a huge thing for me, obviously, so after I got that call it basically took over my day. I'm just excited.

Today is hopefully going to be a nice day. I'd like to get outside for a bit. Need to do some shopping, but lacking funds. Also need to figure out my lunch and dinner. I have no clue and I like to have something a little planned out at least. My fiance works after 3pm today so it will be nice to get to see him before he goes in. All he does is work and go to school lately. He's almost done with the school part thankfully.

on a totally random note...I've had hiccups for like 15 min now. it's driving me insane lol.

happy weekend all!

Good Morning PA Friends,

I have much to celebrate today. I've lost 100 pounds in 13 months 16 days. I have 33 pounds to go to reach goal. I'm going to try to relax a little now and not be so neurotic about the NUMBER on the scale.

Thanks for all of your support.
For all you newbies....it will happen if you do the work. Keep workin' it.

Best to all of you.

Good Morning all!! I am up early - nausea... it is slowly passing though.

I am going to get my butt out of bed shortly and start getting things ready for the cooking class today! Looking forward to seeing whoever can make it!

Hi everyone!

Today is my Saturday support group.  We will discuss Portion Distortion.  I am hoping some will show up.


Clueless about weight loss and weight loss surgery of any kind.

Wow...I'm BEAT  We got slammed last night at work.  To the point where I literally did not sit down (not even to chart****il 4am...which meant 9 hours of non stop standing/walking.  Nice to know I can do it.  Don't want to have to do it again!  I actually took my shoes off driving home cause my feet were so swollen from standing, my shoes didn't fit anymore.  First time that has happened!

Anyway....I was hoping to nap for a little bit, poke my head in at Liz's and then go back to bed.  That is not happening!  I'm trying to figure out what to have for "dinner" and then I'm going to bed and not getting up till I have to leave for work (well, I'll leave enough time for showering I guess, LOL)

Oh - and due to the night I will confess now...I lived on saltines, crystal lite, and graham crackers with the exception of 2 cheesesticks and 2 ounces of chicken last night.  At least I got my fluid in (over 100 ounces from the time I woke up to the time I left work)  Protein?  Ha!  Carbs - dear lord...probably more than I consume in a week.  Se la vie.

Have a GREAT time for those who will be at Liz's house!  Can't wait to see all the recipies!

Good morning all!!!!

Well last night I bought a bike!  It is the first bike I have owned in over 10 years...wow!! It felt amazing to ride last night!! I was a bit wobbly but it started to come back to me after awhile!!! I was riding all around the neighborhood with my step daughter and it felt great!!! I forgot how much fun riding a bike was-----and what a WORKOUT it can be!!! LOL  And of course it is a PINK mountain bike .....21 speeds...soooooo awesome!!!

This is just one more thing I can say thank you for to Dr. P and the surgery because I would never have dreamed of getting myself a bike and riding it in public before!!  This has been the most amazing journey of my life!!!  

As for today I was going to go for a longer bike ride...but the weather doesn't look too promising right now...so I will probably do some school work and then jump on the treadmill.....ahhhhh I can not wait till the summer!!!  

Hope everyone has a terrific day!!!!!!!
Much luv!
Laura

Sooooo funny you posted this.  I'm seriously considerin getting hubby and I bikes this year.  I was also thinking roller blades, for me....one of my gf does that a lot and offered to "teach me"  She said "I have extra elbow and knee pads for you, too" To which I responded "It's not my elbows and knees I'm worried about - it's my FACE"

So if my next avatar is a skinned up face....you know I went roller blading!

Glad you had such a GREAT time on the bike.  It's those moments that the "general populous" don't realize HOW significant they are!!!
