Who's out this Tuesday?
Vickie,
Dumping was caused by 3 lousy bites of a cookie. Although I felt like croaking, it would have been worse to think I could eat them or other gooey yummy FATTENING treats.
There is a good cookbook
Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery by Patt Levine and Michele Bonetempo-Saray.
It has tons of recipes which are okay for us. Each recipe gives information about calories, sugar, protein content, etc.
Store your other recipes in a hard to reach place (on the roof
) or try to make them WLS friendly.

Hi Kristi and my OFF family:
I was up early but had to go to get a mammogram today ... yes, the annual squish the boobs day. The tech was very gentle. There's a new breast health center in Monroe, and it's very impressive. You don't have to walk across the hall in the skimpy fly-open gowns to get to the mammo machines ... each dressing room is connected to the testing area. The dressing rooms are very nice, too. The only thing they need are more current magazines ... the magazines date back to 2007.
Then I stopped off to pick up a few things at the grocery store that were on sale. Came home to my order of Believe cappucino drinks piled up by the door, had to bend over to gently push in the two big boxes (ouch!). Back is still a little ouchy, but the muscle relaxants have helped ... only took two yesterday, one today. I think I can go to work tonight. Hate sitting home especially when we're so shorthanded. Not that I'll get any extra points for it, but I do care about showing up and doing my job.
Trish, by all means, fight that guy's son ... you have to protect your mom. He's being a real asshole.
Well, that's all from here. It's 94 already and going up ... it was nearly 100 yesterday. Have a good one.

I enjoyed everyone's post.
I'm working on cutting down on all those bad carbs that taste so good before I have surgery. I hope it will make the journey easier. However I made really good artesan bread and croissants, so I'll need your help to keep me on track!.
...and no, I won't post the secrets on how to do it here, as the temptation would be too great!
Take care and have a good day.

Good afternoon Kristi and everyone....
It is 3:30 PM and I am just now getting on here to check in. Yesterday I never did get here to post. I read the thread about 10:30 last night.
Still cloudy and partially sunny...not warm enough to go to the pool. Tomorrow is supposed to get better. If it is Grace and I will be there!!!!
Not doing good with my eating...my daughter is just too good a cook. I really need to get back to basics before I add another 20 pounds!!! Just being in so much pain and depressed isn't helping me. I need to get a grip!!!
I think I need to get to MN soon...I am missing my BFF Pam. We are so close and both are having trouble being apart. Feels like something is missing all the time. Most of my other friends text and call so I can keep up with them.
I sure have been whining a lot lately.....guess I shouldn't be doing that. I will try to find something more interesting to chat about tomorrow.
Prayers for those in need. Have a wonderful day!!
Love and hugs....connie d

Coming here to share good, bad, fun, saddness, hurt is essential...we all sustain each other. Hearing about what each of us is living with or without on many levels makes our cyberfriendships so genuine. I know that I will be supported or slapped silly when I share cause we all do care. Connie think about WHAT you have "given up" or "lost" these past few months. I know where I went when we decided to put our lives on hold to help our daughter and Gkids during those 24 months +++ while she went thru her divorce. I hit bottom, lost my way and my relationship with her. I mean really worrying about doing her laundry or cleaning the house, or doing the dishes, or or or...anything I did might indicate she wasn't doing it right or being a able to do it.
We share you pain.....remembering to be GOOD to ourselves is so HARD.

Thank you Monica....I would be lost without you!!!!
Things really are hard. My health is going down hill. My Asthma and COPD are horrible. I have a great deal of pain in my right lung. Only part of my right lung works anyway....there is so much scar tissue.
We have two dogs here....I am so allergic to them. I can't breathe right. Jamie said she would get rid of the newest one. She hasn't found anyone to take her. Jamie will not return the dog to the pound as she knows they had a hard time finding a home for her when Jamie got her.
I don't want problems between me and my daughter. I am afraid to pu**** too far. But....I am feeling sicker and weaker everyday.
Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers if you can.
Hugs....and .....love......connie d
