Topic: I need help!!!

Seriously!!

 

I had my RNY on April 29th.  I'm having a hard hard time remembering what kind of foods I can eat & I cannot eat.

Does anyone have any suggestions for what to have 2 - 3 months post op?

I find myself eating crap that I know I shouldn't & paying for it.

 

Someone help me!!

Topic: RE: Ok.. weekly roll call will work better than daily!

Nothing happening here.  I'm at 199 this morning, up from 197.5 last week.  Don't know what that's about, but I'm not fricking happy about it.  I better not see that damn 200 again!!! 

I'm only at work for 2 days this week, then it's off to Country Jam!!  Can't wait.  I so need a break from reality.  No husband, no kids, no job, just me, my friends, great country music and fun in the sun!  (Well, hopefully there's sun.)

Have a great Monday and the rest of the week!

Topic: Ok.. weekly roll call will work better than daily!

I'm a little giddy this morning.  #1 I stepped on my scale and my 3 week stall has been broken....#2  (drum please...)a total of 60 lbs is gone from my highest weight! Ohh... I have to say that again... 60 lbs!!  Woot woot!   Last week when I posted I thought I was going to be sad when I went to the Dr. becuz the Dr's scale always seems to weigh heavier than mine. Soooooooo   when I got there, it actually weighed me 2 lbs less!!  Go shorty... go shorty......

 Also.. I'm still waiting to hear about the job promotion thingy. I've resigned myself to "its anyone's ball game" type of deal. Seriously, there there is only 1 position and several people battling for it...... I have to be real with myself and not get my hopes up in case I don't get it, ya know?  But hopefully I hear something this week... so I can end this agony!

 Friday I took a vacation day and hit the local pool with my BFF and our kids. HOLY HELL.....can you say SUN BURN?? Um.. yeah.. from 11:30 until 5 we were at the pool. (Yeah, and it was only like... 90 degrees that day).  Did my dumb ass wear sun block? Oh noooooooooooo. Why?? Because I wanted "color".  Pffft COLOR!! What was I thinking??  So as I writing this know that I am in pain on my back, my chest, back, shoulders and knees as they are the color of a flaming lobster. Meanwhile the rest of me, my legs face and arms (the places I really wanted the most color) got only a tinge of pink...... I guess I have to go all or nothing because I rarely get the change to tan in the summer . So when I do go out for the day I really have to get 'er done!  lol

Daily rant...... gas prices, the economy, and President Bush.  1 of f them need to go down, 1 needs to go up....and the other one just needs to GO.

Have a fantastic Monday!

DON'T BUY IT!  Outta sight outta mind.  If you have it in the house now.. and you don't want to eat it... throw it away :-)  Go on now... you can do it......

I WISH, WISH WISH Kenny Chesney was at Country Jam.  He is so awesome.  But we do get to see Rascal Flatts, Big & Rich, Carrie Underwood, Little Big Town, Joe Nichols, Taylor Swift and some others. 

 

Just to clarify, I hit a mini goal, which was to weigh less than 200 by Country Jam.  I wish I was at my ultimate goal already.    That is 150. 

 

The birthday party is done and I"m just winding down now.  Thinking about getting on my elliptical.  It was very windy here this weekend.  So windy that we couldn't even enjoy our new deck for the party. 

 

Hope everyone else had a good weekend!!

I guess I'll go exercise.  Haven't done much of that and I noticed my calves, thighs and arms are looking pretty flabby.  Hubby suggested I start exercising, right when he wanted a little something.....  Nice foreplay.

Topic: RE: Badgercare

Hi,  I have Badgercare with Compcare as my HMO too.  I do know RNY is covered, but don't know about anything else.  My info. was sent in this past Tues for approval decision.  When I talked to lady at Compcare she told me it takes about 7-10 days for a decision, but sometimes faster.  I am anxiously waiting.  If you have any more questions pm me, we can share our experiences with Compcare.

Topic: RE: Hello!!! Ok need some help!

In Appleton we don't have much! We do have the Timber Rattlers, a minor leaue baseball team, if you are interested in a day outside :-)

I have to agree with the shopping at the Fox River Mall (or the outlet mall in Oshkosh!).

Also, are you football fans?  Not only is the Packer hall of Fame at Lambeau Field, but also tours of Lambeau... they take your through locker rooms, offices and onto Lambeau.  I don't remember the days you said you were coming up this way.. but Packer trainin camp starts at the end of the month.  They train outside of the Don Hudson Center (directly accross from Lambeau Field).  If you go, then get their early and mark your spot on the bleachers with a blanket...... if you snooze... you'll lose and end up standing!  The left side of the field is more offensive practice and the right side is where the defensive practice is located.  *** can you tell I have been to a few of these? Go Pack!)  I'm just jacked that football season is around the corner!

Like I said before, I don't remember when you said you were going to be up this way... but about 45 min north of  Green Bay there is a hog wrestling festival this weekend.  There are pretty much festivals every weekend if you are interested in some live music.

Anyway... I hope you enjoy your mini vaca!

Topic: RE: Fage Yogurt in Saukville, WI

Well, that depends.  Fage, especially the fat free, is almost a perfect food.  A one cup serving is 120 calories, 20g protein.  BUT, it is "plain" and so has that sour yogurt tang.  This is largely due to the fact that is has no flavors, fillers, modified food starch, etc.  The only ingredients are Skim Milk and yogurt cultures.

I enjoy mine with some fruit and Splenda.  You can also add jam or something if you like.  In terms of protein for calories (plus calcium) in a soft and easily tolerated food, you'd be part presssed to find something better.
