Funniest thing happened on the way to the OB/GYN

Yep. Now guess.



Nah.  I wouldn't do that. I just thought it was a catchy title!



Hello my little Dichelostemma capitatum's!





Anyway. So right before I was leaving to go to the OB/GYN today, we got a customer who noticed I was eating a piece of pizza! Let me tell you this customer was male. Why do all older males feel like the need to comment on what the heck I am eating...I digress:

Again, he noticed I had a slice of pizza. It was a piece with one bite taken out and all of the toppings removed! I was saving the crust for my well fed dog as a treat.

He says Pizza is bad for you! I say, it's better then McDonalds. He says Not Much, I can't eat it anyway because I have had lapband surgery. I say Oh me too. He then says I just ate lunch at Sho neys. I ate 2 pieces of chicken, some mashed potato's, and some macaroni and cheese. I then roll my eyes!

Are you effing (pardon me ladies I am proper but I cuss) kidding me? You just felt the need to comment on my 1 piece of pizza with all the toppings removed and one bite of crust eaten when you just ate "healthy" at a buffet?? Are nuts? Number one...mashed potato's are like glue to me but they have almost no value to me as far as nutrition. Mac and Cheese, how I love it, but I don't eat it because it doesn't go down in the dose that I want to eat it so why try! And if that buffet actually served any chicken other then FRIED chicken then I would be shocked!

But yet my pizza was the devils food. I don't get it.



or

I think men are different then ladies in many different ways but in this particular case he just has no idea about nutrition or even health facts.  He said that he has had lapband for 4 years. He has lost about 75 lbs. Good for him. And he got his surgery in Mexico...by the same doc that a lot of people use. Again, good for him. He then says no one here would give him the surgery because he wasn't Obese. He was over weight but not obese.

In whose world buddy? You started at 255. You are 5ft 4inches and that might be guessing on the taller side (he was a short guy). That my friends is OBESE. And that is why you qualified for the surgery. No one here would give you the surgery because no one here does it. EVEN now.

Am I a lap band snob?

I hate the word obese by the way. I am 2 and a bit points away from being over JUST overweight.

So my OB/GYN appointment went well. I went of birth control. STOP NOW because I get a tiny bit personal.

I hated the stuff. It was literally birthcontrol because I NEVER wanted to even consider doing anything EVER with my husband. Poor guy. I feel better now btw. For those of you who are concerned or still reading.

So I am off. We'll see if I get pregnant. Might be nice. But lord knows if I ever have another miscarriage then it might just send me over the edge for good.  And I do not want to be PG while I am in Chicago. That would be no good.

That's all.



Hello my little hydrangea's! New Followers!



hydrangea's were my flowers for my wedding

Hello Hydrangea's! I wanted to share something. I was in the shower this morning after my 6 am workout with my trainer *it was awesome* it was hotter then heck and I thought I might faint...which is perhaps why tears started streaming from my eyes... I was thinking about Joey's post on the BOOBs page yesterday about what to expect in Chicago. She mentioned doing a Vlog and how it would be good to let people hear you. So then I started thinking about what I might say. That is when I lost it. I am a sap. I honestly started to think about the support you all have given me and how happy...and I mean happy I am that I chose weight loss surgery. And I cried. The lady in the next stall was probably worried.

I promptly stopped crying after I stepped out to see a very aged (and a little large) and quite naked person asking me all sorts of questions about 1 foot from my face.

But I might be feeling a little sentimental right now. Draz's story about chipmunk giggles gave me chills and now I have to shave my legs again....but I do feel really really happy. Stuck, because I haven't lost weight in a while, but happy. Hell I am wearing a skirt.



NEWBIE FOLLOWERS

There are a few new faces on my blog recently. But for what ever reason I can't follow  you all back! Please leave me a link so I can start following you too! Spanks, my flowers!



Now for your viewing pleasure:

Remember I am an equipment (with some party item) rental store owner. We sell commercial chain saws, weedeaters, all that kinda stuff! Our new line came on Monday...so hubs took a picture of me this morning! When you guys get to know me..and hear my voice...I have the least sounding southern accent out there. I am a bit proper, I like antiques, and cooking...I am not married to a southern man..not that it is an issue. But my roots are showing here. I think I should have worn blue jeans and flannel! Yes, those are some crazy eyes and a really freaking heavy chain saw!

Oh and Ronnie and Liz...I am warning you. I might be a little cuckoo!

Secret Bandits!

Calling all secret bandits!!! I thought it would be cool to fill out this survey as a way for your super secret bandit to learn more about you!!! (And maybe some of you out whose brain cells haven't been fried by a summer full of SVU and Grey's Anatomy marathons could come up with a more "bandit specific" questionnaire.
