Dang computer

I had this whole long disertation on my first WLS support group. But I lost it. So short version, really glad I went. came back with positive input

Those chicks had NO shame!

Went to a waterpark today, I love them. I love to get on the lazy river and either walk it over and over or to float on it. But it's also a great place to people watch. And watch we did!Why is it when I was younger there were so few of us FAT chicks? And now the majority seems fat. Not that I'm complaining that I'm losing the attention or anything, but I could NOT find a boyfriend back then, I was too fat. Now all the FAT chicks have their men, some rather good looking too. Not to be a hater, I've done pretty well for my self I must say but.... I'm just saying I notice stuff like that.And why is it that all these Fat chicks don't have enough self respect to cover up the "not so flattering parts"? I mean if you're fat and you insist on a bathing suite when you're layin out tanning, CLOSE YOUR DARN LEGS! Really! It was frightening how much of the uglies we saw with out tryin. I'm not a prude really, nor am I Modest, but ya gotta have limits!! I'll where a short skirt or shorts all day long, but I know what unapealing is and I don't need to show my unapealing side. Sorry just wanted to vent!!! LOL In case you're wondering I wore a t-shirt ( because NO ONE needs to see the skin on my arms float in the water LOL). And shorts.

When life throws you lemons, grab the salt and suck on it.

I don't know why that happens, The Law of Substitution that is. ( I just made that up because I'm a deep thinker like that) The Law of Substitution is defined by if you can't have what you want -- find another damaging desire to fill the void. I LOVE sugar I've said it before. I pray to HATE it, to hate the flavor the calories the thought of sweets. God has not blessed me with this as yet. But God is, afterall, the JIT got, he's never there when YOU want it but his always Just In Time. Not because he wants us to stress, but to teach us to depend on him, he knows all and will take care of everything in HIS time.So now that I'm pushing myselft to stay away from sugars, not as hard as I should. I now crave Salt/Sour! Lemons with salt, Cucumbers with salt, chili and lemon etc. But if I will now have to be more concerened than ever with ulcers then what the heck am I doing? Trading one deadly "sin'" for another?

Lord! Give Me Strength. I need to NOT have the cravings, I need to crave the good food that I don't normally like. The only GOOD food I love is cabbage--- but theres a drawback there -- it's a gas maker. I want to crave vegetables!! Okay! that's my prayer God grant me a vegetable craving (if I have to have one at all).

I fell off the wagon!

Dang, now that I hit goal. I of course started to relax. Stuuuuuupid. Now it's hard to get back on track. My kids will be back in school shortly and I'm looking forward for that to help me. I'm also going to buy my protein drink today. I'll use more of that. My samples have run out! I find I loved one and hated a couple. Here's my view of what I bought and how I liked them:ISO Pure Low Carb Dutch Chocolate-- okayIDS Multi-Pro Whey Isolate Belgian Chocolate-- Really good flavor Optimum 100% Whey Cookies and Creme- THE WORST. SMELL HORRIBLE AND TASTED NASTY-- REMINDED ME OF URINE!ProScore 100 Chocolate-- okay, flavor was pretty fairProComplex Chocolate Ice Cream- Terrible. Didn't like it at all. I stuck with chocolates, because in slimfast or glucerna drinks I didn't like the strawberry so I've been afraid. I'll order more samples from www.vitalady.com and try some vanillas. I didn't like the drink I got from GNC, it was in a bottle like a soda, non carbonated, but I just couldn't finish it. The flavor was just not there for me!

I have news!!

I got a call from Kaiser Radiology today. They called to schedule me for an ultrasound (8/15). I didn't know why so I called in to Kaiser and spoke to the coordinator. She says the Dr. wants to make sure I don't have any gall stones. If so they plan to take my gall bladder out while they're in there. She also said I'm 15 on Dr.'s waiting list. So we're looking at Nov. But she ASKED if I wanted to get on the cancellation list. And of course I said absolutely!! So now I just wait for my results, then wait for someone to back out or reschedule then wait for her to call the 14 people before me and THEN it's time. I'm okay with this! I will have time to get my legalities in order. Make arrangements for my kids. And lose a couple of more lbs. Not a bad day!!!
