Im not laughing, I promise. I never heard of the thing you are describing and I absolutely know I do not need one, Ive had surgical intervention in . Now Im curious, is this something you need a prescription for? Or something you can just pick up at the drugstore? Elspeth!

Hi Kim! I thought I would drop by and see how everyone is doing! I have been busy today! I got up early this morning and has some quality time to myself before Dakota and Dale got up. Then I was at the Y for a 9 am water aerobics class! Ouch, it kicked my a$$!! I really didn't think it was going to be so tough, but boy was I mistaken! I can feel every muscle in my back this evening! I hope you guys had a great time swimming this afternoon. It was a beautiful day here in Montgomery! We even had a light shower this afternoon. I love gaucamole as well! I eat it on salads often! Gail P.S. I don't know if any of you guys do flax seed or not, but I have an extra bag of it that I won't be using. I just can't do the stuff. If anyone here wants it, it is unopened, just let me know. The first person who says they want it can have it! Just send me your address. I bought 2 things of it at GNC (stupid sale) and opened one and tried it. It is Cold-Milled Flax Seeds, GNC Natural Brand.

Topic: RE: Is it just me?
yeppers that is very rude in my book. I know we do discuss this at work sometimes but most of us are looking for cheaper places to live that we can afford. Im not going anywhere, I dont care how much my rent goes up I love this house. I will just look for a better paying job to keep it Maybe next spring, I will be looking for one to buy unless I can talk the owner out of selling me this one which is a possibility. Our world does discriminate against those who are obese or disabled no matter how you look at it, they need a reality check which probably wont do a bit of good but if your like me you can at least have the satisfaction of saying what is on your mind. Love, Elspeth

I want some, and I want to come swimming but I got too much to finish around here but before all is said and done this summer I am coming up for a pool party!!! I found this recipe the other day, as soon as I can have a drink, Im gonna try this one. Margarita Fizz 1 shot tequila shot lime juice 1 1/2 tsp. Splenda 8 oz unsweetened orange flavored sparkling water Put the tequila, lime juice, and Splenda in the bottom of a tall glass and stir, fill with crushed ice, pour in sparkling water to fill. Nutritional information per serving: 4 carbs, trace of fiber, trace of protein, 76 calories. Im sure you can make a much better one! I also found some recipes that say to use Crystal Light as a mixer since all hard liquers such as whiskey, vodka, rum, gin and tequila are all CARB FREE SeaBreeze shot of gin mixed in Crystal Light Pink Grapefruit, fill with crushed ice. I havent tried the Crystal Light Pink Grapefruit so I have no idea how this would taste, Im sure you could substitute a shot of vodka or rum if you dont like gin. I havent had a drink in over a year now, Im sure the smell alone would knock me to my knees

Hi Jaycee, It just depends on your insurance and how well the surgeon's office staff know their business. I did not have the problems some have encountered either. Mine just took a little longer to get all my required testing done, my surgeon wanted beforehand. My surgeon has a exceptional staff and actually an exceptional nurse who took care of everything and she didnt sit around twiddling her thumbs. I just love her, she really went above and beyond the call of duty and she does that for every patient, not just myself. I cant add anything the others havent already if you need any help just post! I dont know anything about the surgeon's you posted. Elspeth!

Topic: RE: Hi Sweets!
Ive been missing you too!!! I went to see my granny yesterday, and share copies of family photos I made for her. I found one of her at the age of 14 (she will be 90 in 2 weeks), right before she married my grandpa, and had it blown up for her, then took some to her sister who will be 93 in November! In August my 93 yr old Aunt will compete in the Mrs. Senior Alabama Pagent at the Wynfrey Hotel in Birmingham. I think that is such a hoot to be chosen at 93 to compete in a state wide pagent! Im going to go back and see them both on Sunday. I just cant believe my Aunt is 92, I almost fell out when she told me yesterday. I didnt wear any make up and she told me I "had aged alot" since she last saw me . Im going back Sunday in full make up! Love em both, they dont care what they say at that age... LOL Love, Elspeth!

The doctors are Dr. Jorge and Dr. LaTorre. Do you know anything about them? My doctor in Russellville is making all the arrangments. I am not having any of the problems getting scheduled and getting the surgery other seem to be having. It makes me wonder if I am missing something somewhere.

Welcome Jaycee! I totally understand where you're coming from. I was the same way...I came to realize I could not lose the weight by myself. I am on the 6 months supervised diet and have gained 10 lbs. because diets do not work. This is the only option I have. And you're right...continuing on this way is scarier than the surgery. Who is your doctor? Hugs, Joni
