Well, it's Monday. Again!  My weekend was pretty good.  I enjoyed going to the Rise N Shine.  It's been a while since I've seen everyone!  Got a GREAT hug from Papa Jack!  Love those hugs!!

Not much to talk about just yet.  I'll probably have more this afternoon.  Oh. My dad made gumbo for us!  It was really good!

Ok, I need to wake up and take a shower!  My mind has gone blank!  It's really sad when that happens.  Especially when it happens later on in the day when you are supposed to be sharp and on top of your game!  LOL!! Oh well, off to the shower!

Have a great day, everyone!  Love ya!

Morning!  Five days til vacation, I'm ready, lol.  Not much planned today except the responsible parent, worker thing.

I am joining Kathy with shakes only today.  I'm really pissed at myself for the regain and I'm NOT allowing this to creep up any more.  I'm literally afraid to get on the scale this morning, my clothes let me know I've gained.  For me, it's just always easy when I work on the regroup to do liquids only......the crazy mind doesn't think about what I get to eat next when I'm not putting real food in there.  It's like I have to "plan" what I'm eating next and the mind goes on and on and on about it.

Hope you all have a fabulous day; believe in yourself.  Vitamins, water, protein first, get moving, no excuses, choose your attitude, be accountable to YOURSELF, NO matter what.

Hugs,

We Can Do Hard Things

Good Morning Yall,
Today I am going to start the shakes.. Wish me luck. I picked up everything I needed yesterday. Hubby is going to do it with me. He needs to. I am sure it will help some of his back issues he is having. He is barely moving around at this point. I hope and pray he does not have to have surgery.
Winstar was a great idea. We had fun. My dad (my real dad, not Clay) Said for me to tell yall he had a nice lunch with yall and it was nice to meet everyone. He did not leave until 3:00 am the next morning. He left a winner also. Not has much as my skinny blonde friend, but, he did leave a winner.. LOL..
I hope and pray I do good on this shake thing. It is really hard in the begining. But, as some of the newbies will find out.. it is almost as if I never had the surgery at all. I had the swallow procedure done last year by my wls doc.. My stoma is dialated open. So, I never get that full feeling at all anymore. So, for all you neah sayers... that is not a "head revision needed, that is a surgery revision needed."But, I don't want to go down that route. I'm sure my insurance would even pay for it. I just don't want to have another wls. I am going to keep on keepin on..
I hope yall have a great day. I am going to..
Prayers for Meggie and all the others that are needing them and have those unspoken prayers that are needed also.. Hugs.

Kathy Bender

Smile, it increases your face value.
