GOOD MORNING!

and now since it's after midnight...
I'm going to bed! 
Should not have had yummy Mocha protein shake with CAFFEINE for my late dinner!!!

Mistakes... make for an interesting education!

Nitey....

You make laugh out loud.  You are such a bright light here.  We by nature don't ask for help.  That's the beauty of a forum.  When you need to know how to do something, just ask!  The great thing is that somebody will probably be able to help.
hugs, Y

Yvonne, my dear friend, I have warned you many a times about how strangely my mind works...
and at this stage of the game that isn't going to stop... 

It the way my Dad trained my brain... He was a huge Fan of RUBE GOLDBERG... one thing just leads to another...
never know where a simple train of thought will lead me - or how I got there!  all happens in an instant!

Well it keeps things interesting for my husband anyway..
Sometimes he just looks at me and shakes his head...

Katie, you are just adorable and the story about your girls was great.  Another one of the very important parts of our success is training the family what we are supposed to eat.  I so apologize if I'm repeating myself but I have a talk where I have a slide that says "Tuesdays and Sundays" and the story is that this pre-op tells her family all the things she's not supposed to eat and she's all excited and then her family catches her eating some of that stuff and she says "Well I went to support group and they said it was OK on Tuesdays and Sundays" because we will lie our butts off as addicts.  If you educate your family from the very beginning it makes it easier for everybody.

You know what's way cool?  To read something I wrote and know that it means something to someone else....like the trophy thing.  You guys are definitely the best part of the board for me and it so makes up for anything unkind that's been said elsewhere.  It's truly like a dream come true for me.  All I wanted was a place where everyone could feel safe and learn stuff from each other.  All of you make that possible and I'm so very grateful.

And Katie, about your friend and the trophy....just remind her that you love her and that's all you can do.  I so wish you the best on that one.  It's just difficult to adjust to a change of any friendship dynamics and eventually it will work out however it does.  The best part?  You're not going into it blind.  Because you understand you will have a far better chance at doing it as smoothly as possible.  You're a cutie Katie!
hugs, Y 

Y thanks Y!

i just followed the instructions you gave me and it worked! (like that is a big surprise!!!) 

I'm unstoppable!
