Also get your pain medicine filled so you have it for the trip. Also I'm short and we used a kiddie stool so I didn't have to stretch to get up into my daughters SUV.Bring a couple extra pillows to the hospital I used them under each arm. Good Luck! |

Tomorrow we will be walking the track about 1:00. If you want to join us, the bridge might be the best place to plan on meeting up at 1. The track goes over a wooden bridge so we can be there at 1 pm.... See ya... If you haven't been there, the track also has exercise stations you can stop at spaced all along the track. Kat |

It was sure scarce out there for the soccer game today. Lots of "single" parents like myself out there as the "other half" was probably at the Katy-Cinco Ranch game. Happy to report our Katy Tigers came out on top 21-20 (missed extra point by Cinco caused the one point deficit). Last year Katy lost to them so Cinco ended up winning the district title. This year, other way around! Now the Tigers will keep their eye on the prize and try to work their way up to a 3-peat state title for district 5A football! WooHooo!!! Officiating was terrible though. BOTH sides agreed to that!!! Sarah's team struggled today as the heat was creeping back with higher humidity. Hard to run like that for an hour when you are 7-8 years old. They run out of gas quickly! I don't think they won (with this league, they don't keep score...) but it really didn't matter. I think we only have about three more games until the "season" is over anyway. Two in a row, then they skip the week of Thanksgiving, then the last one will be on December 5th. I'd better go get Sarah off to bed! |

It would also be a good idea to stop and get out to walk a little on the way home. You don't want to be sitting in the car for the whole ride home. Good luck Kat |

Bumps in the road are uncomfortable, holding a pillow helped the shock. You are traveling pretty far, I'm not sure how long your surgeon keeps you in the hospital post-op but I'd be apt to say you should probably stay close at least a couple of days as a precaution. Best wishes on your surgery. Oh and I forgot to say......bring something very comfortable so nothing rubs on your incisions. A free-flowing dress or really lose warm ups/stretch pants and a T-shirt or something similiar. Dana Lap RNY 2/21/05 260/239/134/130 |

I posted the prices my plastic surgeon was quoting me and got feedback from others about the prices they paid. There's a lot of information in that post and the replies. Since then I have had the breast lift and facelift. Although it has only been a week since my surgery, I think I'm going to be thrilled with the results. My co-workers are already telling me the facelift makes me look 10 years younger. The "turkey neck" that appeared after I lost weight is completely gone. My plastic surgeon is Dr. Paul Pin. He does his procedures at Baylor and at Doctors Hospital. He's also a sweet, witty guy, impossible not to like. Let me know if you have any follow-up questions -- I'll be happy to help if I can.

Her and her office staff were fantastic and went well above and beyond my expecations throughout the process. Her website is www.drcarman.com and her number is 214-618-4000. Definitely meet with a few surgeons to find the one that fits you best. I'll definitely be going back to Dr. Stiles for any future work with or without insurance. Congrats!! Debbi |

I am interested in any DR names/out come/ and location of your plastic surgery that is in the Dallas area. I will be paying cash as insurance does not cover any of this type of surgery. Also if you don't mind sharing the cost, I understand if you don't, as it is very personnel. I'm just trying to get ideas and direction to look for. I had my gastric by-pas surgery July of 06 and are currently around my goal weight, which I have been maintaining within 10 pounds or so. I'm just getting in the process of researching and looking. I never thought that this would even be possible for me. Thanks you guys Lorraine Philosophy of life "Treat others like you wish to be Treated" |

The meeting will be at the Grand Prairie Library in the conference room. The address is 901 Conover Drive. This is just west of the Grand Prairie Police Department. If you take I-20 towards Grand Prairie, exit on 161 and go North. Conover is off of 161. It is just past the sign that says Jefferson exit is 1/4 mile. You will be able to see one of the tallest office buildings in Grand Prairie, it is about 6 or 7 stories tall. It is on the east side of 161. Make the right hand turn on Conover and that building will be to your left. The library is on your right. Any questions, feel free to PM me, or just ask here. I will be back on the board later today.

Gina R, Liz, Que, Steph, Becky, Donna and Paige will be here later today to have a slumber party and go to my costume party for my 50th birthday (2 weeks ago) at my sisters house. There will probably be 80 to 100 people there. I counted a good 80 that I was pretty sure were coming, plus a lot I didn't know would show or not. Thank heavens my sister is a great hostess and has a big enough house set up for that kind of stuff. There will be eating, dancing, and visiting plus enjoying the costumes. I'm going to be a lady pirate. Lots of family have come in for it so I'll be glad to see them. I'm sure my nieces will want a "dance off" at some pt. I usually dance but they're too good to be in a contest with them. We tell the one that is a jr. in high school we should get her a pole! (not that what she does is inappropriate, just a great dancer) I have made poppyseed chicken casserole, layered salad, mostly sf pumpkin cake w/ sf cream cheese frosting, mostly sf ooey gooey almond cake, buffalo dip and spinach dip for my peeps. We'll have gals sleeping all over the place. Ben's spending the night at my sisters after the party. He said he's not staying in the house...too many women. My husband changed job locations this week and most likely won't even get to come in for the party. It will be great if he gets off early enough to make it in, but will have to go back tonight because he has to work tomorrow. Prayers for all who need them. Danni and Debbi...have fun!

Hi Vivian, I understand your concern and need for prayers. You certainly have them from me. That being said let me also say this: Remember if God closes one door, he opens another. Case in point;. My son had been with a large auto parts store for 8 years. He worked his way up from delivery driver to Major Accounts Manager. Since about a year ago, he started getting harassed for being obese (63 BMI). Management was harassing him, blaming low sales on him, etc. My son even asked "is this about my weight", and the other manager said YES. So, in March, my son had WLS, went on medical leave and NEVER went back. Yes, he was unemployed for several months (lives at home with me) and that was TOUGH. But I believe God finally put him where he wants him. He is now tutoring 6th graders at an elementary school. Pay is less and there are no benefits, but he is doing what he does best and loving it! BTW, he has lost 155 pounds to date. Sorry for the long story, but know I WILL be praying that your son does NOT lose his job. Times are tough. But, if the prayer request gets a different answer, know things will still be OK with a little more prayer. I have a lot a praying going on this week-end! ![]() Brooke |

Michael woke me up to go to bed at some point, but I slept nearly 10 hours. My body is just so worn out right now.

I'll try to get stuff unpacked in between. We have to have Michael's office set up before Monday morning because he goes back to work then and needs to be able to function. That's the biggest goal right now. I hope you're enjoying a peaceful weekend. Weather is supposed to be fantastic, so get out there and enjoy it a bit! Prayers for all who need them. Blessings, Jennifer 253 / 128 (below goal) If I were lying, wouldn't my pants be on fire?!? |
