Good Morning All!  Janine I am so glad your son is doing much better.  Lu - ditto for your sister.  I guess all those prayers from OH'ers really help!  I will continue.

As for me, today brings not much of anything.  I'm still recovering.  My mother will be down tomorrow and as such I feel the need to de-clutter my living room.  It's full of slippers, blankies, pillows (all that "recovery" crap) and Jayden's toys.  Or, I might just say Flip It and leave it where it lies.

As for Wacky Weigh In Wednesday I don't really want to post this week because I'm still holding onto a lot of the fluids they pumped me full of in the hospital.  When I got home last Sunday I was up 12 pounds!!!!!  All that IV fluid and not eating anything for 6 days messes with the body.  As of today I am still up 5 pounds but that is steadily going down.  Right now I am just focusing on getting in my water and my protein.  I have no desire to eat at all.  Nothing tastes good and if I do get a notion that I want to eat something and make it, 2 bites later its like "ugh, blah".  for now I will be doing a protein drink in the morning and one at night and try to eat something decent for lunch.  At least until I'm feeling better.

As for a good sign (and probably a bit over-sharing) I have more gas than an oil refinery!!!!!  This is a good sign as it means my guts are awake and talking to me.  Not so good for the Joe or the dogs as they have to put up with me, but they'll live!

I'm working on another of my writing masterpieces.  This is a good one and I will be sure to share here soon.  It's called "The Care and Maintenance of the Tube Up Your Nose"  Version 2.  I wrote one about 15 years ago for my BFF Lauri when she had one and it was so funny I about split a seam writing it.  The doctors and nurses loved it and it's rumored to be framed and hanging behind a nurses station at Sutter Memorial in Sacramento. However, neither Lauri nor myself kept a copy of Version 1.  Therefore............here comes Version 2!!!!!

Will be sure to share shortly.

Good Morning Janine and Cali,

Janine, I am so happy that your son is doing better.  He must have been in pain for a long time with it being that big.  Glad they got it out of there.

LuLu,  I am also very happy to hear your sister is doing so much better.  She is lucky to have such a great sister to speak up for her. 

Chris and Steve,  Happy surgiversary to both of you. 

As for me........i haven't really lost anything.  I have been pretty much holding steady for the past 3 weeks.  Guess the honeymoon is over.  But of course not being able to eat much of anything makes me eat stuff that I can tolerate......not necessarily the best nutritionally speaking.  Mashed potatoes, cream soups etc.  Hopefully they will be able to get me fixed up soon.  I was able to eat a little turkey on Thanksgiving, but now have gone back to throwing up solids

Good morning Cali!!! Happy WWW And Hump Day!! Nothing much on the agenda today except for working from 1-4. We got our Christmas tree yesterday. It was given to us by one of DH's company's customers. He bought trees for everyone. We haven't had a live tree in about 10 years. It's gonna be fun to decorate it. I am down 2 pounds this week for a total of 85 pounds gone. Wooohooooo!!! I hope everyone has a great day. =)

Not sure what we are playing but would love to join.  I am down 3.5 pounds this week.

Oh man, I forgot to weigh in this morning!  I don't expect change, though. 

It's been a rough couple of weeks.  Ellie had pneumonia and we cancelled our holiday plans and just stayed home for Thanksgiving.  She's doing MUCH better now but it was really scary. 

On Friday, we got a call from my best friend to jump on a boat and join them in Catalina, so we did!  We had a great weekend, and we even got to keep the condo for an extra night for just Tim and I.  On Saturday I was taking a nap, and the fire alarm at the complex we were staying at went off.  I woke up and went over to see what was happening, and missed a step (it's all white tile and split level), and went down.  I have a huge gash on my shin, and I'm sure I bruised the bone.  It was awful that night, and it just feels like I got hit by a truck now.  Getting better every day, but I went down hard, evidentally. 

I have decided that this year was wayyyy too much for me, and I'm postponing my next plastics til May.  I was scheduled for December 29th, but I just can't put my body through it right now.  I need a break!

Janine and Lu so happy son and sister are doing better. Will keep them in my prayers.

I put my big announcement on another thread.

I am not up nor down and I am going to blame it on Nicole!!! No reason just seems like we weigh in about the same amount the last few weeks. and she didn't lose anything either.
