Hello, who was you dietitian if I may ask. I had a terrible experience with one of the dietitian who made me feel like I would totally fail no matter what . It was very discouraging .
Thorbellina would never snot on me because she is brilliant.

Hi, Jill. Thanks for the information.
I had WLS in 2011, but through many trials and tribulations, and life, I've gained back about 75% of what I'd lost. My bad. Also, I had an ulcer burst a few years back, so my ulcer surgeon referred me back to my WLS surgeon for follow ups because it was in the pouch. Since then, I've been thinking about (and to some extent, working towards) revision surgery. BUT in the meantime, I'm going to try the Wharton Clinic with my family. And as you said, they can refer you for WLS. So my background is a bit mixed up when it comes to all this.

MY RNY DIDN'T FAIL ME - I FAILED IT.
I will make sure little Thorbellina doesn't snot on you ;) I can totally understand it, especially when it belongs to someone else. Her's don't bother me but everyone elses are gross.
I hope you feel better soon... Seems like the bug is really hanging on.
Still sick. Same old same old.
QOTD: I have an irrational fear of snot bubbles. The kind that toddlers have that when they breathe the bubble inflates big. It's at that time I ask them to see Mummy and have her wipe their nose. Snot is my kryptonite. I makes me gag. I am good with blood and gore and will jump into first aid action, but if the person had a snot bubble I would have a tough time not blowing chunks on them.
Have a great weekend and hope you get to chill like I will be.

Don't beat yourself up - just realize you are human and we all have done something we regret. Just recommit yourself to the plan and remember how you felt when you slipped up. You should be ok, but get your head back in the game! You wouldn't want to ruin this opportunity after waiting all this time for your surgery! You can do it!!
Good morning!! Oh my it was so windy through the night last night and this morning. It's really doing a number on our pool cover. It's coming apart at one seam.
I didn't want to come to work today but the weather didn't cooperate with that plan!! LOL

Good morning :)
I'm calling uncle on the ice and snow this week. I rarely use sidewalk salt -- I've had the same bag for like two years. And this week has pretty much used it up. DH went at the ice last night with the breaker thing and got it mostly clear. We live on a corner with a lot of sidewalk...
Today I'm going to pick up something I'm buying from Facebook and probably get a few groceries. When we purchased the side of beef it more than filled our freezer so we had a cooler in our sunroom with a bit of overflow. It all went bad this week. Ugh. I hate wasting food and this is even worse. So I can't buy anymore frozen foods lol.
QOTD: what do you irrationally dislike? I cannot stand feather dusters... I think they are kind of gross -- I refer to them as the dirtiest cleaning device ever. I prefer dusting with a cloth or something I can wash and reuse. My mom thinks it hilarious that I dislike them so much.
