Good Thursday morning!
Good Morning Vickie and OFF,
Sorry I am late. Got up around 9:00, but had Utley on my lap for a while. I also had to schedule my preadmission testing for a second surgery I am having on the 3rd. Need to get a suspicious mole and some fatty tumors taken out of my arms. So, Monday, I'm having sinus surgery and my nose fixed. A week later, on July 3rd, I'm having my arms operated on. Then, I can enjoy my summer.
Well, today, I have an appointment with the nurse practitioner at the pain doctor's. It's a hot one here, so I will keep the A/C on for sure.
I believe I posted on Facebook about my WLS friendly ice cream sundae, but not sure I shared here. Turkey Hill, and other ice cream companies, make a no sugar added vanilla ice cream, or frozen yogurt. Well, Hershey now makes a Chocolate Syrup Lite, with half the sugar carbs. Add some sliced banana and peanuts and you have a WLS friendly sundae. I don't feel deprived anymore.
I now need to get some exercise. Since it's hot, I'll head to the gym.
Hugs,
Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

Good morning Vicki & everyone else. Sorry I don't post much anymore. Some days are good & some not so great. Have been feeling under the weather for about a week. I hope today stays good.
I was out in the garden for over an hour this morning. After the grandkids that is the best thearpy for me.
Well my hair is starting to grow back. It's very thin & white. Only about1/2 in. longIf I get brave I will post a picture.
My 4
grandkids are coming from Texas next week.There ages are 14 down to 8. I should be ok, they are independant. I am so excited.
For those of you who asked, Morgan is coming too. She seems to be doing great. They are thinking she is in remission.
Vicki hang in there, these are the times Benny will remember.
Judy I wish luck with Randy.
Welcome to all the newbies, I wish great success!
Sorry to any I didn't post to all, my memory is all but gone.

Aloha Vickie.....and all OFF sisters!
Vickie when I hear about you and Benny and how you spend so much time with him, I am happy for you and a bit jealous. My three little mo'opuna (grands) are so far away I only get to see them once or twice a year. They are now 4, 6 and almost 8. Believe me when I have by myself for a week, I am "jello" at the end.....Ha. So much energy.
Judy...welcome to OFF, the best forum there is! I am so happy for you. My decision to get WLS came almost 7 years ago, and mostly the decision was made because at 325, I could NOT get down on the floor with my first grandbaby. I was a restricted movement kind of person. By the time 1st grandbaby was born I was down to around 180, and continued on to reach 156 which is what I am today. I can do almost anything!! The miracle happened and today my life is full of movement, freedom of body and mind, and gratitude for this healthy transformation.
I hope you all have a wonderful Thurs. Thanks so much for sharing your personal lives every day.
Aloha nui loa,

Oh, Karen, I try to be grateful for the time I have with Benny, really I do. But I would not be human or truthful, if I didn't say that some days I really regret the loss of my personal freedom. Today I would really like to just laze around and read, but that is not to be! LOL! Sometimes I wonder just what I have gotten myself into for the next several years! I always enjoy your posts and your WL success is such an encouragement to me. I haven't lost any since I started this babysitting gig, and I think I am gaining a bit back. Too many shared lunches of PBJs, I suspect! Aloha, friend!

Good evening OFF family, it's a busy day for me, I'm working a double and believe me I'm starting to fade, 11pm can't get here soon enough and I will be sure to get my butt in bed as soon as I get home b/c I have to be back here at 0700 but only have to work one shift. Covering for co-workers on vacation is sure fun! LOL
Hubby put up our 4 ft. pool and I jumped in it and did some water exercises naked of course! LOL...we live in the country and there is no one around, talk about freeing. Hubby was cracking up laughing at me when I started doing my situps with my noodle. The water was cold so I hit the hot tub after that and proceeded with some leg lifts and arm circles.
It's been so hot and muggy in Michigan that hubby finally put the air conditioner in the living room. My poor dogs were panting. We have air in our bedroom so I was taking the dogs in the bedroom with me while I read in bed. Now that's relaxing isn't it???
Rebecca (middle daughter) seems to be doing okay with her PE (blood clots by her lungs). She is still short of breath and gets really tired fast. I go over often and watch the kids to give her a break.
I got my hair colored red with blondish highlights. It's kinda in a long bob type cut but I can still pull in back into a small ponytail when I work out. One of these days I'm going to have it cut short. I will put it up in an "up do" for the wedding next Saturday. Not me doing it, I made a hair apt. I will be a classy "bar wench" at the wedding. This Renaissance wedding will be a blast.
Hugs and prayers for all in need. Keep cool! Debbie
