Okay everyone, its Monday, so please check in. Tell us how you're doing, what's new in your life, etc. I miss having our big support group meetings. Anyone that wants to take over the FW group, feel free to as Bryan is just too swamped at work. We're open to whatever that group wants to do. Hopefully we can all meet up soon.
This is going to be a busy week for me. Have a great day today!

Not much going on in my world that ya'll dont already know about.  I ended up mailing 60 resumes out yesterday.  It would be wonderful to get at least one response, but when it is 'cold' calling, you just never know.  When I get the job that I have now, I 'cold' called several places near where I lived at the time, and did get two responses.  I started off at the job as a contract person for tax season, and now I have been here for 9 years!!!  So, you just never know.

Not much happening on the house, but maybe everyone that had looked at it recently, is still deciding about what they are going to do.  

Go out and make it a great day!!!

Good morning. I begin my last two weeks of working before summer break. We work Monday thru Thursday and 7-5.

I hate the hours, butlove three day weekends. I had a super busy graduation weekend with family. It was a fun one.

Have a good day.

As hot as it is going to be hope everyone has a "new" deodorant that works!!  Near 100 degree heat and body armor don't mix well.  Needless to say though if given the choice of sweating or bleeding from getting shot - I'll take sweating EVERY time! 

Today is the first day of work after being gone last week for school and the day is already booked for me.  On council agenda tomorrow night for possible raise and I hope it goes through.  Won't be much but it's the thought that counts!

 Morning Alissa and TMB,

I had a busy weekend.    In fact yesterday had kind of a disaster.    Went to the driving school where I hold my OH support group and the man who leaves me a key....well....let's just say he forgot.    Thanks to Le.....she came to the meeting and offered us to have the meeting and her and her husband's business down the street.    What a blessing that was.   I honestly thought that we were going to have to hold it on the sidewalk.   LOL    Hope to have a good week this week.   I am hoping that anyway,     Norma....hang in there with the house.    Summer has just begun and I am sure maybe one of the families who have viewed your home will decide to give you a contract.   Prayers going out for you for that.   Prayers for Phyllis and others that are having problems.    Now go out and make it a great day !!!!


Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CAN NOT CHANGE;   COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS THAT I CAN;  AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!!    THIS IS MY DAILY PRAYER.

Good morning,

Just laying here watching the clock till I have to get out of bed and start working. SIL is stress with caring for my MIL so we had her spend the weekend with us to give her a break and it went well.  

Work and a run to the grocery store is all I have on the agenda so for today. 


Have a great day!

GOOD MORNING BEAUTIFUL !!  

I am back at the office today after being off for 3 days last week.

I had a wonderful weekend -  slight headache and not feeling 100% this weekend (too much outdoors with allergies and stuff I think this am)  hopefully it will go away..

I've been trying to eat my breakfast here at my desk since 8am.  Its now 9am.....I'm about 1/2 done..  food is just not interesting to me this morning.  I guess I let Connie in my head alot this weekend and I made Joey listen to her on way home for 4 1/2 hours because it is MY car and thats what I wanted to listen too !!  lol

I gotta get going and do my morning routine stuff..

Luv you all bunches !! 


  • Pease check out Dr. Connie Stapleton's Website. A lot of good information on there for all WLS patients regardless of the surgery you chose.  Good luck to all and I'm here for you if you want to send me an email.  I'll answer it as soon as possible.

Good morning all!! I didn't get a chance to check in, at home, this monring, so thought I'd take a quick work break and jump aboard.

I had a lazy weekend. Stupid headache put me out of commission Saturday, and Sunday I just CHOSE to be lazy..but it was nice...

I am on day 6 of upping my protein and "de-carbing"....feel so much better..bloat is gone..energy is up..feel "in control"...haven't weighed, because am not letting the scale be in charge this time...clothes already feel better...skin is clearer, etc..

MEGGIE and I want to really push for the 18th to be a "reunion" of sorts for the Ft Worth Support Group, at Central Market. We're going to keep reminding everyone. I'm going to do a FB "invite" thing, so, if you on my FB friend list, and live locally, please be looking for it, and forward to peeps I don't have listed. We're going to list the time from 9am-11am, to make it a bit more structured. ALISSA-be sure BRYAN is okay with this, please. My fear is peeps are staying away due to personal weight gain--which is when they NEED SUPPORT THE MOST--by the people who can MOST help them, because we all TRULY understand!!! The first step is always the hardest..

Okay..better go do a little of what they pay me for..Hope everyone has a NON-manic Monday!!!

Yes Bryan is okay with it. He told me to ask for someone to take over. Hell I've gained considerably but I go to the meetings so they should come
