wonderful Wednesday Roll Call.........

Good morning everyone,

As for me, I ended up getting to bed really early last night, well at least for me anyways.  I was alseep by 2am, and I only slept about 4 hours so far..  I'm not sure why I woke up so early, but I did....  I'm hoping to at least get a nap in before I have to get ready to go out later.

This afternoon a friend of mine is coming to pick me up to take me to my 1 week post op checkup.  I'm looking forward to seeing how much weight I've lost since surgery. 

After that appointment, I don't have any plans.  I probably should take a few pics of myself, since I didn't do it before surgery.  I know that I'll regret if I don't have any pics to compare later down the line when I get skinnier. 

Anyways, hope everyone has a great day.
David

good luck at today's appointment.  I would definitely take pictures. You will want them to see where you came from, especially on those days when you don't feel like you are doing well.

David--Good luck!! Let us know how your appointment went!!

Good morning, PA!!

I got up really early this morning.  Paul was expecting an early call from someone to go metal detecting, so I got up to make sure he was awake.  Yeah, I know---he's a big boy and can get himself up and out the door, but I like getting up early, so I don't mind.  He may go treasure hunting with this guy again at the end of the week, after the hurricane goes by.  Anyway, this is computer time for me, then I'll probably read for a while.  (I'd better---I have a 1000 page book due back at the library on Tuesday!  And I've only read 100 pages of it!  Better get moving!)

Have a great day, my friends!  Wishing strength and peace to those dealing with life's issues!

Good morning PA,

Lisa, I'm ready to go back to bed after reading your post!

Went to the gym at 5 this morning.  Getting ready to shower.  Then off to work till 5.  I have got to get some food that I can eat in this house.  We are out of chicken. So I think shopping is in order for this evening as well as folding three loads of laundry.  My husband doesn't mind washing and drying for me but he won't fold and put away.  Guess I can't have it all!

Hope everyone has a wonderful day. 

BTW, has anyone heard from Swede?  Think about him every day, wondering how he's doing.

Hello Cyd, here I am!  Im doing ok.  Im at work right now just trying to get through the big ass list of things to do I got from my boss yesterday.  Im not real invested in it but I have to make some headway today to prove I still deserve a paycheck lol. 

Today has me working till 3:30 then going home and hopefully taking a nap.  Last night kind of sucked, I made a protein shake in the blender for the first time and added ice cubes and a little peanut butter.  Usually I just add the mix to skim milk and spoon stir it.  Well anyway, after i drank it my stomach got pretty upset so I ended up just going to bed around 9:30 pm.  Im not sure if it was the peanut butter or the frothyness ( you know what I mean) of the drink.  The extra sleep was nice though.

Well thats about all for me.  I hope everyone has a great day.

Swede

Hello Swede,

Sooo very glad to see you up and about.  I am still dealing with wanting to nap when I get home from work.  But I know if I do, I won't sleep and night.  So I just try to keep myself busy till about 9-930.  I've never been much of a night owl!

Sounds like you might need to try some Lactaid milk for a little while.  That happened to my friend Cherish too.  The very first time she had a protein shake, once she was allowed, she was in pain for several hours afterwards.

Keep up the good work.  I know it's hot out but take those little walks.  This weekend will be great for exercising outside.  Can't wait!

Good morning Lisa and everyone - Thanks Trish - I am actually looking forward to going in!

I am up, showered, dressed and ready to tackle whatever the 2010-2011 school year has to bring!  I always look forward to getting back to school and seeing everyone and knowing that I get to start over every year.  It is very theraputic knowing that the things that I was not pleased with last year - I get a do-over - not many people can say that!

I slept relatively ok - woke up a few times - probably just anxious about hearing the alarm clock or making sure it was set right.  (It was.)  I was even up 10 minutes before the alarm went off.

So - today, I am off to school, then I need to take the dresses that I am wearing to my nephew's Bar Mitzvah this weekend with me to the corset shop as I have NO IDEA what size bra I am in and need a strapless number, then I need to head to the Judaica shoppe to get my nephew his gift and pick up Molly from the synaogue.  Tonight is the well deserved pedicure and manicure for the weekend festivities!  At that point I am sure I will be totally swollen and ready to crawl into bed!

Hope your Wednesday is Wonderful as well! :)

You wear more then one dress for a Bar Mitzvah?

Oh honey - it all depends on the EVENT!  I have a Friday night service, a Saturday morning service and then a Saturday night reception!  Lots of wardrobe changes for me!  LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!  And...I have shoes for each event! :)
