Uh, did you send that to me too?  I never saw it if you did, I'm sorry! 

The only dating place I've ever heard anything about is the one where they used to have the 'founder' some dr.-guy do the adverts and he talked about matching people with a certain number of compatability points.  They don't use him in the ads anymore, I think or else maybe they are not around???  Anyway, my sister tried that one w/dismal results.  The way she related the story to me it sounds like he only took her out enough times to get her to think she owed him s*x.  What a jerk and needless to say she was too smart for him. 

How about instead of dating sites just finding some group that does local day trips with people in our age bracket just to make some new friends and some regularly schedule companionship.  If anything develops then so be it, but at least you'd have something to do with locals and get to have a good time. 

Hugs!

I am so not the person to ask about dating, dating sites or anything of the sort....but wanted to say HI!

HUGS

Thanks Lyndsey! :-)  Much appreciated - the support.  We all need it for sure.  Every time I don't feel well I revert back to carbs to make me feel better and well it doesn't do anything but make me bloat and the scale goes up.  I used to get very sick from eating carbs/sugar, not so much anymore.  Unless it is in a liquid form.  Time goes on your tolerance gets better unfortunately.  It took me over 18 mos to two years to realize that they don't bother me as much as they once used to.  I still get gassy but that is about it.  So keep that in mind and be glad it does make u sick now.. remember that always!

Thanks for supporting me. I may be sniffling and drinking tea tonight to get through but I will be there with bells on. I love this lecture (sounds so bad to admit doesn't it?) but I do b/c I feel like it is the true nuts and bolts of what makes us successful with this surgery and good for even me to review it from time to time.. give me my own kick in the pants! See you tonight, look forward to seeing the new skinnier you! How exciting!

I ate WAY too many carbs this weekend and the scale is viciously showing it.. I am so bloated up its pathetic - happens especially now postop lower body lift - all the swelling and excess everything... garment is screaming at the stitches u all!

Anyways, I had to miss work b/c of a virus I have.  Still not feeling well.. sigh.  I have a sore scratchy, dry throat and drainage (sure that is the culprit to the sore throat) and body aches and headache etc... Been battling it since Friday AM.  With that came bad eating.. scale says.. yes get this.. 139.5 today, thats up what 6ish pounds? nice.... ugh.  So no, I am not perfect, I have my issues too.   I also know some of it swelling but it still isn't good... gotta get it together.

I am also speaking at support grp tonight.. 1.5 hours. This is my annual lecture on vitamins, nutrition and exercise importance and I hand out a survival guide.  I enjoy this lecuture a lot and I think others do too but not sure my voice can take it.. gotta do it though b/c the other leaders are at a bariatric conference or out of town visiting family.

Wish me luck both with the lecture and getting back on track... sorry the "eats" posts were nonexistent over the weekend, I will try to do better.

Have a good week everyone!
