Wednesday Morning Coffee Talk

Good Wednesday morning everyone!  Time to rise and shine!  The week is half over and it's all downhill toward the weekend now.   Our challenge for today is to remember to chew chew chew.  When we eat, sometimes we go back to our old habits and we take BIG bites and swallow.  We can't do that any more.  We have to take small bites and we have to chew.  Remember to chew everything good today.  We gotta stay with the program.  I am almost 4 years out and I saw my Surgeon for my 1 year check up yesterday.  He reminded me of all the basics.  So let's do this!  If we do, we will maintain and stay on track.  I have maintained and stayed the course for 4 years and if I can.  JUST CHEW TODAY!! So, who's up?  What cha sipping on?  me?  I'm enjoying some awesome Elvis coffee my sweet baby gave me.  I sure do miss her.  I can't wai ttill she gets here next Friday!  It'll be good to see her. Ya'll have a wonderful and blessed Wednesday as you CHEW CHEW CHEW!!  I sound like a train today!  HEHEHEHEHE  On another note, I saw the foot Dr. also yesterday and it's crutches for another 9 days.  The foot looks great and NO infection!  WOO HOO!  The wounds are healing, but he wants me off of it for 9 more days sooooo.........

Morning Randall- Gevalia Caffe Latte for me this morning. It's 8:30 and I'm on cup #4... giving the Tassimo a workout today. Its gonna be a LONG day! Hope the foot is feeling better in time for Friday! -Janine

hi!!!  wow - freehold.....i am off of Dutch lane and kozlowski rd and i  just got my lap band on 4-16.  I will be getting a fill this week.  So far I have lost 13 lbs. but I can eat bread and I guess that is the sign if there is restriction.  Nice to meet you................karen

Congratulations Karen!!! If I did my surgery a few years later, I would've definately looked into the lap band... when I had surgery, it was still so new and I was paranoid. Did you have your surgery at CentraState? I had both my babies at centrastate and I just love that hospital! (I'm originally from Staten Island and Jersey hospitals ROCK compared to NY ones) I have 2 lapband friends locally and they're doing wonderful and both are at thier "sweet spot" with restriction. One recently had a beautiful baby girl on March 4th... they had her do a complete unfill and gave her a refill right after delivery. She lost all the weight she put on with the baby and loves her band! I'm off Elton Adelphia- in a townhouse community (Strickland Farms). It's temporary (renting) while we're getting a house built in Monroe Twp. =o) Keep up the fantastic work and let us know how you're doing along the way! -Janine
