 OMG......Michelle do we have ALL day !!!  LOL   I could go on forever about how great life is since my WLS.   My biggest and latest WOO HOO is my son's pod came yesterday and was delivered to his rent house with all his belongings from Ca.    AC......fiuton....bed and all.   I single handedly almost emptied that thing myself !!!   When he got home from work;.....all he had to get out was futon frame, futon mattress, mattress and box springs and his entertainment center.    HE couldn't believe that I had taken everything out by myself !!!   LOL   I was so sore last night but soaked in a hot tub of water for about 20 min. and I am OK this AM....a little bit stiff but still I can move and I am down 1 lbs too!!!!  That is my WOO HOOO !!!!



Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CAN NOT CHANGE;   COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS THAT I CAN;  AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!!    THIS IS MY DAILY PRAYER.

Hi all !

Really good topic !  Let's see....My most recent woohoo would be flying...since I do that ALL THE TIME these days!  When I flew back from Dallas two weeks ago, hardly anyone was on the flight, so I moved over into two empty seats....and I was actually able to lie down, curl up, and fit well enough on the seats that I was able to fall asleep!  200 lbs ago I woulda been lucky if I'd fit in two seats, let alone been able to lie down and be comfortable enough to fall asleep.  Of course, when we hit some rough air and the armrest fell down on my head, the sleep thing kinda got interrupted...but it was nice while it lasted.  (-:

I'm also still amazed, even though it's been almost two years now, how I can move around.  Yesterday, I was at our Chattanooga office, which has a big flight of stairs.  Now, I've gone up those stairs a zillion times since my surgery, and yet every single time I am STILL amazed when I walk up them and am not even fazed.  200 lbs ago, I would literally have to go straight inside to the bathroom and sit down for 3 or 4 minutes to catch my breath. 

And, as silly as this sounds after all this time, I still have a woohoo moment every time I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror.  I still cannot believe that I look NORMAL. 

Hope all of you have a great wednesday -

WooHoo it's Wednesday!!  That means it's only TWO days 'til the weekend!!  How many of our peeps have off Monday for Columbus Day?  I remember "back in the day" we always had Columbus Day off, not so much anymore.  Probably only the feds (BENDER) and the like get that extra fall holiday.

We hit the gym for water aerobics last night.  Went an hour early so we actually had two full hours in the water.  I was fine, but King said he was tired  WAH WAH WAH.

Looks like I'm going to get placed on an internal compliance review project at work.  I'd much rather be traveling to a client site working in my comfort zone, but something is better than nothing and it will keep me in a paycheck.  I'm not looking forward to having to go into the office everyday because I'm just spoiled like that! LOL

I hit my lowest weight on the scale this morning anxious to see if it holds through the rest of the week and weekend for MMWI with Miss Mari.  **crossing fingers**

My WooHoo is that I have been able to wiggle, squish and smash  myself into that damned foundation garment I bought at the conference all by myself!  It's a tricky little beast, but it sure does a nice job smoothing out the bumps and lumps.

Have a wonderful woohoo Wednesday - I will.

Jodie-is there a brand name to that body shaper or a website?  Hailey wants one really bad so I thought maybe for Christmas or her birthday I'd get her one.  I know they're more expensive online but that's my only choice.

Steph - it's called Lipo Express.  The website on the packaging shows www.lipoexpress.com.  I haven't gone to the website to make sure it's accurate, but that's what is printed on the marketing material.

The state isn't closed on Columbus day and Chris isn't off school but I know the feds have it off. October is actually the only month without a state holiday in it. The other 11 have days off.

What is a MMWI?

Good Morning OH Family!

I still have WooHoo's even two years out. My woohoo this week was, that I tried on some sweat pants that I wore last year and they were baggy. Ok.....Steph I guess I am a size 10. I've thought for a long time that I was a size 12 but Steph proved me wrong. lol Also at work I tried to upsize my vest to a large and it was way too big. Rick was up allllll night throwing up and ........ seems like everyone is sick with either the flu or this stomach virus. uuugh! Praying I don't get the stomach stuff I have to go to work tonight. Rick's foot looks a little better today. You know it's bad when the Dr calls personally this morning to check on it. Well better get some stuff done before I go into work.

Your loved!

Lynnette,

Call the Dr on the people that are throwing up.  I had the H1N1 and the worst part was the chills, headache and the throwing up.  I thought I had a virus but it was the new flu. 

I always knew you were smaller than you said.  Lady you look awesome.

Well hello fellow train riders.  My Waaaahoooo for today is that I have amazing friends that I have met on this board becuase of my surgery.  You are each near and dear to my heart.  My other waaaahoooo is that I am over the N1H1.  Back at work.

I finally got the results from the3 time taken heart monitor.  Well it shows that my heart is beating 3 times as much as it should be.  Sometimes even more.  They treat with a beta blocker but they just had to reduce mine (actually give me a new one) because it had been causing my bp to drop too low.  So that is not an option.  Then if they also take me off my directics my retention is to much for my CHF.  So that is not an option.  I go on Friday morning to see if there is any muscle damage to my heart since it is working to hard and for more lab tests.  My EKG in his office on Monday was abnormal.  But all in all I feel great.  I don't let it bother me.  Just can't exercise.  Hey now there is an excuse if I ever heard one.

Looking forward to the costume party at Ques.

Well guess I better get back to work since I was out sick last week.  Everybody have a good day.
