Life with the Three Crazy Dogs

It’s 12:30 a.m. and I’m still awake.  Just got done with a post and chatting with Simmie.  I’m dead tired but still wanna stay up and finish up my post.  Money is money.

BF came over and we walk through the house with him.  The boys are already acting up.  They know something is cooking but they are not sure.  They are very clingy – to the extreme.  I’m hoping with SD and BF staying at our house, they will be better.  I pray there will be no accidents.

 I’m done packing.  Looks like I still can put more stuff in it.  Did some last minute shopping today.  Was up at 5;30 and cleaned the house from where I left off yesterday, yet I still have time to meet my friend for lunch Thursday afternoon at Genghis Khan Grill.  Great food and was cheap, too.  When we done, we went to Byerl’s for my last minute stuff.  I was so glad I found the preserves.  Shopping at Byerl’s beats the crap outta of Cubs.   Though they are more expensive, but so worth it.

 DB still has to go out tomorrow to get coffee and to RadioShack to get a converter.  He wanted to go this afternoon, but instead had to go to Home Depot to get a toilet seat.  Ours broke and all these had to be on the last day.  He even confirmed our tickets, printed the boarding pass for me.

OK, guess I better brush my fangs and get some shut eye.  Till morning comes……still couple of assignments to complete.

There are a number of my co-workers have gone through a lap band surgery.   I know for sure they had to do it because of their health.  You see, they were overly heavy and was affecting their health.  One of them, Melinda, had high blood pressure and her doctor had to prescribe high blood pressure prescription for her.  She told me she tried numerous diets including the re-known Atkins Diet, but it actually made her pressure went up and cholesterol sky high.  She also tried South Beach Diet, but it did not work for her. 

After all these unsuccessful diets and her health beginning to deteriorate, her doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery.  When she told me about what she was going for, I was glad to hear it.  I do not want to see her feeling so miserable and sickly all year round.   Before patients go for a weight loss surgery, they will have to have their BMI (Body Mass Index) and BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) checked.  BMI is to gauge their total body fat and BMR is to see how much calories patients need to maintain their weight, and they are used to achieve weight loss.

The Toronto LaparoscopicBand Centre is a place to obtain obesity solutionsfor those are in dire need to live a better life.  Some people feel that they regained their ego and self-esteem after going through the obesity surgery.   Like my co-worker Melinda, she is definitely happier and she looks healthier.  She is able to keep up with her kids, and does not feel embarrassed while playing catch with them.
