Topic: RE: I'm boiling some green peanuts!
last night was the last night I have tried green peanuts- i just rinsed them really well and put in pot with lots of sea salt and grill seasoning and brought to a boil- I let it simmer for about 90 minutes until done and let cool- they are fantastic

I have boiled the other peanuts- I cooked them overnight on low in a crockpot- that worked well too

next time I want to try a red pepper flake seasoning

I am seriously considering setting up a stall at the local farmer's market next summer and seeing how well they would sell

Hey Jen... since you crawled out and the others are crawling out I guess I will to. 

Like you said life has been so busy this summer... I thought the school year was busy... was I mistaken! I can't wait for school to start back!! 

I miss everyone so much and would love to get together and see everyone and fellowship a little.
I know I will not recognize everyone when I do see them it has been so long!

I am struggling now with eating sweets and I just started back drinking diet pepsi. I hate being
at this stage where nothing really bothers me and I can eat about anything I want. NOT GOOD!!!

Ok... now we all have to get together real soon.  I miss my peeps really bad!!!

Love you all and miss you all so much!!!

Pam

Topic: Consult on Aug 6
I go for my consult with surgeon on Aug 6.  What should I expect?  Do they schedule other appointments with the nutrionist, psych eval etc fairly quickly?  I think I wlll not be quite so anxious once I talk with the doctor and know exactly what to expect.  I just had a echo gram and and an executive profile done.  Is that something that I will have to do again?

I really enjoy the board and appreciate all the information that is out there.

Hey Angela!  I'll be with you Aug 7!  Tribble is doing my surgery.  I'm coming from the opposite direction as you.  I live in Dillon and am also looking for a support group.  Hopefully, I'll see you in Columbia! ~Laura

I love boiled peanuts too!  A friend who cooks them in Sumter said the best ones are allowed to cool in the sal****er as this is when the flavoring happens.  I, however, have never done them myself and wondered how you did? ~Laura

Hi Jen!  It was so good to read your post.  I know exactly how you feel, those 10 lbs are killing me too.  I have been in hibernation mode the past few days.   I had to say good-bye to my 14 yo dog, Lexus on Monday and I am hoping to make it through today without crying.  The days are better than the night.  She was my "first born", the first dog that was soley mine.

It is very sad how much we have lost touch with each other, lets not make that a habit.

Julie

I can go the distance... I do not care how far... I know every mile will be worth my while.

My goal in life is to be as good of a person as my DOGS already think I am!

IT'S SO GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU GIRL, I WAS BEGINING TO WONDER WHAT HAPPENED TO EVERYONE LATELY. I KNOW I HAVEN'T BEEN POSTING MUCH EITHER, EVEN THOUGH I DO GET ON HERE EVERYDAY AND READ THE POST. I'M SORRY TO HEAR YOUR HAVING PROBLEMS, BUT YOUR NOT ALONE, LOL. DR. BOUR HAS ME ON PRESCRIPTION IRON PILLS BECAUSE MY HEMOGLOBIN WAS LOW ON MY LAST LABS, AND HE HAD TO INCREASE MY THYROID MEDS ALSO. I WENT OFF OF MY HORMONES AND SORT OF REGRET IT BECAUSE NOW I AM HAVING HORRIBLE POWER SURGES AND MY APPETITE HAS INCREASED HORRIBLY. I THINK IT'S JUST EMOTIONAL EATING BECAUSE I AM NOT REALLY HUNGRY. I KEEP GOING UP AND DOWN ON THE SCALE AND WANT SO BAD TO GET ANOTHER 10 POUNDS OFF SOON. I HAVEN'T BEEN TO A MEETTING SINCE THE LAST TIME I SAW YOU THERE, SO IT'S TIME I GET BACK TO THAT SOON. THE "FUNK" MUST BE GOING AROUND, USUALLY SUMMER IS THE BEST TIME OF THE YEAR FOR ME, BUT LATELY I FEEL LIKE IT SUCKS. IT WOULD BE SO FUN TO GET EVERYONE TOGETHER AGAIN, I WORRY ABOUT EVERYONE AND HOPE THINGS ARE GOING WELL FOR THEM. KATHY, DAWN,MELANIE,RACHAEL, MELISSA, AND EVERYONE ELSE THAT I LEFT OFF DUE TO LOW MEMORY, I HOPE YOU ARE ALL WELL, DON'T BE STRANGERS, WE ALL NEED TO GET BACK TOGETHER FOR SUPPORT IF NOTHING ELSE, I DO MISS EVERYONE.
OOPS! I'M RUNNING LATE FOR WORK, GOTTA RUN.
BE GOOD AND TAKE CARE SWEETIE!
LOVE YA!

Hi Jen.  Good to see your post.  We LCBBers have kinda gotten lost too.  We stopped meeting weekly because everyone just got so busy but now we are trying to meet once a month.

Yes, I think all of us are struggling with the 10 lbs....makes me crazy.  I have gotten into drinking a little wine at night and I think that has a lot to do with it.

Take care...we've missed you upstaters!!!
