WHATS HAPPENING SUNDAY
Im going to try and answer all the post that were done Sat…im just so dazed and don’t know what to expect…(see other post on here)
DEB::::: I am like that about a crying baby….i don’t know how I survived mine either. I remember taking lots of walk LOL
Tell your kids that they need to stay home some nights…after all you need your privacy too.
I remember where you are at now,,,I couldn’t eat much of anything. I don’t know if that feeling is something stuck or whether it is just that it is still raw down there…May be some of both. But when others that were as far out as I was were talking about eating deli ham I tried and made me so so sick, every thing I tried messed me up except soups. Then I discovered chili…and I was able to eat that..still chew and chew.
But I was able to eat that with hot sauce in it. But without the hot sauce it was horrible too.
The 54.99 was just the replacement cartiridges for the taser gun….the gun itself was 300 something.
Thanks for looking. I may get her some pepper spray at least. And a stun gun. I just cant bring myself to get her a gun. I don’t want her having to try and stay out of jail because she shot the idiot
BEC:::::: 0 days left. What? Huh? Really O days left? Yep
Are you all waiting till in the morning to leave the house?
Just know that you are covered in prayer tomorrow when you go into your surgery.
Everyone will be waiting for you all to call so we can tell them you are ok. Which I know you will be. Like we talked about it is a win-win situation.
Give yourself time today about the citrate. It is a bugger.
Things will be moving right along so you wont have time to worry about a headache believe me. Rememeber your Isopure…take a bottle with you and you can start drinking it on the way back from the hospital. NO MORE TEARS….remember how long it has taken you to get here….it will be worth it all believe me.
PENNI:::::: wonderful about the room ….i know it will seem like there is a new house for awhile. until you get use to it.
PEGGY:::: some of us have had a long time to get use to the names...I started coming on here almost 3 years ago. And yeah the board was dead. That is when I started doing this little post of whats happening. Took awhile to get people to come out of hiding tho….finally about doing it about a month , daily every day.
Yes be sure and let me know when you go to have the sales. I will want to come and maybe if sugar isnt gone on a trip will come with me.
SHERR:::::so glad that you are going to stay with us this time. I know we have missed you.
You will make it girl. Has your side hurt you all week end?
ANGY::::::your life isnt any more boreing than the rest of our boreing life .
Hope your friends from Springfield get out and come to our meetings on the 4th Monday of the month….if you see them ask them if they need to go ahead and pull in there.
BARBARA S:::: are you still walking and still walking the 5 K ….do you have to run in those or just walk. Lol
I really think you are right about the Taser…I just hate to give her a gun. It is or can be so deadly. And I sure don’t want her in trouble. Although with all the calls to their house she has a good trail on him.
JEANINE:::::: OH wow so glad to see you back on line sweet lady. Hope to see you and your hubby at Monday nights support meeting. I know you have been sick and sure hope you are on the road to recovery. Am so anxious to meet you …..and that lovely husband of yours.
Love you I thought I was going to have to come and find you and have no idea where to look lol
ANDY :::::: Hey im sorry I didn’t mean you had to tell about the fall. Lol hope you aren’t having repercussions from it. Sometimes we do have ….
I found the foot stool that you can have for Susans legs. It isnt the prettiest thing in the world but will help get those legs elevated.
Is the toe looking better? Sure hope so. That is so dangerous. At least she is like she is determined to eat right and stay on the diet she is suppose to be on.
I know it isnt easy for her but tell her to think of it this way that when she get this surgery she will have to eat like that herself but that then it wont be so hard.
It is always hard to find a place to put stuff when you move that is for sure. And if you came from a bigger place then it sure wont be easy.
Love and hugs everyone.
GOD BLESS
PLEASE REMEMBER TO PRAY FOR MICHELE , MY DAUGHTER

He said come on bec you have to write that final post! The next one you write will be after some serious bootie bump'n!!!!
After all this time it is finally my turn to hit the bench! And my dear



What do I feel this morning as what I've worked and waited for these two long long years is only 24 hours away? Well I'm not real sure... a bit of dread I guess... just because of the procedure it's self and the fear of another 45 minute IV ordeal... but I really feel I'm on the edge of a great big precipice and about to take that one last step that will change EVERYTHING (in my mind at least)! no turning back!!!
I do know this.... that even if I have complications like some have had... the Lord will give me the grace to deal with whatever is ahead! I can't help but to look at this as a win/win situation! Even to the very worst in which I still WIN... to be absent in this body is to be present with the Lord! That's ultimate WIN!!!
Let's concentrate on the WIN part... I like that best: No more diabetes!!! that's the biggest to me!!! of all the things I have to look forward to this was my REAL motivation in the beginning! Let's see.. no more hypertension, no more high cholesterol, mmmmm no more sleep apnea,.... no more esphogitis reflux.... is that enough? Nope.... let's see no more feeling like my heart is going to pound right out of my chest when I mow the yard! No more feeling like I'm pushing all my innards out my mouth when I stoop over to pull weeds! No more feeling embarrassed that I am the biggest one in the room! oh boy I could go on and on and on....
I have always wanted my husband to be able to carry me... you know like in the movies when the handsome man swoops up the beautiful lady and carries her over the thresh hold? Boy oh boy would that be site right now!!! I can see him with one foot on the door jam and pulling me thru on my hiney!!! You can look for my ultimate WOW post when I tell that Paul actually picked me up and carried me some place!!! I'm a bit worried that I waited too long... he is not in his prime any more! ~tee hee ok I might have to settle for a pull in the wagon!!! Nope! It's gonna happen! and I will pray I don't throw his back out!!! ~tee hee
Oh enough of that buffoonery!
Mimi

I know I have said this many many times but I just cannot sign off this last time without saying again how very very very blessed I have been to have found this site! To have met so many many wonderful people both in writing and in person! You all have just went out of your ways to encourage me and send me well wishes, support and kind words! I sure do ask the Lord to give back to all of you what you have given me!!!
Yesterday was such a long long day it seemed but I did fine on the liquid diet I think I only got in about 350 calories... I know that's not much and I will be better today... he only says two shakes a day and I had a cup of skim milk with my meds last night... and I used Crystal Light in my shakes.... the rest was no cal clear liquids....
That wonderful ****tail will be at 1:00 p.m. this afternoon.... hopefully I will be done with that early enough that I can get in bed at an decent hour since we have to get up so early....
I sure have enough to keep me busy yet today...finishing up last minute things...
My sweet daughter got in about 6:30 last night and she brought me 20 beautiful pink gerbera daisies!!! She has done that since she left for college.. so many many wonderful flowers! Just yet another way I am so incredibly blessed!
Tito has to go stay a few days with my sister... only the second time we have left him. You all are going to think this is simply terrible but I bought him smoked turkey just to make sure he eats while we are gone and is in unfamiliar surroundings... smoked turkey is his FAV!!! now is that BAD or what? ~tee hee Gotta make sure he gets in his protein!!! me bad!!! I just gotta quit this morning!
I know there are so many needs this day and I will go down my prayer book and pray for each one.... stay safe till I get back here to check up on ya's....
I'm on my way here in a few hours to get my SASS! I'm gonna have some you know... I've never had any my whole life and now that I'm 43 it's high time I get some! SASS SASS SASS!

To my momma

Love to all,

Your post brought tears to my eyes. I remember being in your place and feeling alot of the same feelings.
I firmly believe those on this board have a special bond. No one can understand our plight until they have been there. This is the place for total understanding.
I have polished a special place for you on the loser's bench. You are about to begin to melt away as my hubby tells everyone who has this surgery.

Barbara,
Your note was so sweet and now I have more tears in my eyes!
You are right I think too that this is one special group of people that can feel so deeply for one another!
I'm so incredibly blessed in all the support that I have received this very day..... ALL day long! It's been just simply amazing.... I told someone earlier that if I ever ever knew my Lord loves me and is walking every single step with me it is NOW! and He as so graciously used all of you to let me know this! It has gone so very far to raise my faith in people!
I can soooo not wait to "melt away"!
Thank you Barbara ... I can't wait till it's time for my one month appointment I sure hope we can all get together somewhere... I just know it would be another wonderful blessing!
bec
Vesta,
You sweet beautiful lady..... now here's the deal.... it's getting a bit crowded on the bench..... and since I KNOW you don't want ME to set on YOUR lap I'm going to have to put you on mine! ~tee hee And what an honor it would be!
Oh if I could just give you all a big ole group hug I would be ready to hop right up there on that table and gitter done!
You all have been so good to me!!! Thank you for the prayers and love! It's been so very wonderful!

You don't worry about us you let us worry about you, You just take it easy, one day at a time and soon yu'll be putting one foot in front of the other and be walking out the door and down the block,tjhen a lil farther,thn the harder stuff cardio. Listen to me i can set her tell you what is all good and needed for you,and i havent even got my bridge whipped yet, But i did get on scales buck nekkid[Sorry for TMI for faint at heart} but i weighed 232 yesterday with socks and a towel on my head So this morning weighed in my birthday suit was down to 229# ,I knew it had to be those darn socks weighing that extra 3 lbs lol.
I am still not being able to eat without the stuck feeling and it really bites. Maybe i need to slow down,chew longer but i'm thinkin ain't much chewing to pudding and yougurt lol.i wanna try soups but am afraid to try,I do fine with tomato ,Well at least i did haven't tried in about a week.
Right now i heated up a small amount of pork n beans and smooched em up they are doing ok s far so good. Maybe i might be eating till i get to full. I guess it is live and learn.i've been on this 1'4 of c of pork n beans for over 30 min had to reheat them twice lol.
Jan I love Chili but am afraid to try it, guess i could do the juice and beans and the seasoning from it and if it gets stuck it will just go to the toilet with the rest of the evil foods . I bougght those peanut butter cheese crackers but of course i grabbed chedder cheese ones instead, they stay down pretty good but takes me a good 45 min to eat just one cracker
I really want some cooked cabbage chit thats what i call it .it is awesome and loaded with goodies.
Bec
Happy ReBirthday tomorrow,We have an AWESOME GOD and I know he will be right there beside you through it all. Everything will be just fine.
Everyone else in need of prayer ,Your in my prayers. And i will continue those prayers till they are answered in Gods own way,May not always be the way we wanted them answered but he answeres them just the same and only in his time.
Lots of Love and {{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}} Deb
Jan - get her a big dog. I would not bother with a gun as with everything they can be to dangerous. The taser sounds good especially if he is drunk or high.
I have to be at the hospital at 6:15am in the morning for my hernia repair surgery. Plans are that I get to come home on the same day. Stephanie will be with me.
Got in an argument with my sis yesterday and we had words and she stormed out. I called her and apologized on the answering machine - now its up to her. I should have kept my mouth shut. Espeially since I will need her help over the next week or so.
The kids are going to Des Moines today to see her Dad & back home this evening. She needs to see him since they will be gone 2 years. She wanted me to go with them but I did not want to be a 5th wheel and I am tired so I begged off. I would like to see my ex's face at my weight loss - LOL.
Jamie & I need to snuggle as he is whinning and wants his Mom.
Talk to you all in a couple of days.
Shannon
Shannon,
I didn't realize that your surgery was on the same day as mine either... I will certainly be praying for you also. I know the Lord will be with us both and keep His guiding hand on all that are around us!
Take care... I will also be praying that things work out with your sis too.
Blessings your way!
