    Emotional NSVs

  2. Usually it gets better after day 3!!

    Hate protein

    I can do the strawberry sorbet too really cold, but my problem is my surgeon says NO ICE for 6 MONTHS!!!! I don't know what I will do without my ice!!!

    No more kids

    I pretty much grew up an only child. I have 2 sisters, but they are 18 and 16 years older than me. Same situation with my son. He's 6 and his half brother is 26. I see absolutely nothing wrong with it!!!
  6. Same here! As long as they were in three different months!!

    To keep things in perspective

    I'd need a gallon jar!!!!!! HAHA!!
  8. It doesn't have to be all at one time either!! 10 minutes 3 or 4 times a day!!!!
  9. Sounds like you need more fiber. Also, are you taking an iron supplement? That will cause constipation as well.

    June surgeries!

    I'm hoping for late June!! My last NUT appt is 6/5 and then they send to insurance for approval!!!
  11. I had been doing sooo well on my recumbant bike. I was up to 17 minutes averaging about 3 miles. Now I've got a bulging disc that has pinched my sciatic nerve and my whole right leg is pretty much useless!!! AARR!! I can't sleep, hurts to sit, hurts to stand, can't ride my bike. But I am still doing my upper weight exercises. And on a positive note, I found a recliner!!!
  12. and I'm down 14 lbs. Ate a salad for lunch and let me tell you, it was the best salad in the world!!!!
  13. Well I put the whole sample packet it. I think I put it in while the Jello was still too hot because it was NASTY!!!!
  14. I just ordered some. They have a sale BOGO free.

    Vitamins

    I've got to get a schedule down too. I'm taking Synthroid and have to take on an empty stomach at least 4 hours away from any vitamins. So, that kinda makes it hard!!!

    first appointment

    My time has flew by. I went to the seminar on 2/28 and have had all my pre op testing and clearance appointments required by the surgeon. I have to do 3 months supervised diet for insurance. So it's starting to slow down some since I don't have 2 appts a week. HAHA! Good luck and it will fly by before you know it!!!!
  17. Mine was pretty simple. She just asked me some questions, then I had to do a MMPI test, which is 567 true false questions. Took me about 45 minutes to take. I passed with flying colors!
  18. I'm on my last day of my first 2 week liquid diet. I go to the dietician tomorrow. I can say I have cheated some, but nothing huge.
  19. My 17 yr old niece was supposed to move up here in May to help me and hubby during my surgery and recoup time. I mailed power of attorney papers to my sister in case I need to take her to the Dr since she is 400 miles away. My brother is law is now having a fit saying she can't come until she turns 18 in August!!! AAARRRR!!! My brother in law is very verbally abusive to his family and I wanted to get my niece away from it. My sister chooses to live with him, I can't stop that. But I thought I was getting Maegan away from him. My sister told me that she could come up after her graduation in May. Now I'm sure she won't go against him and sign the papers. She was also going to babysit my 6 yr old this summer instead of me having to pay $140.00 a week for summer camp (and that's the cheapest I could find). I just feel everything is falling apart!! I have come so far into this to stop this surgery now!!
  20. I bought a sample vanilla protein powder from CVS and tried it this morning. I now know what everybody was talking about the smell!! It was horrible!! I took one drink and dumped it down the drain!! I go to the NUT Tuesday and I will probably be put on 2 week liquid diet then, so I was trying out. Now, I'm scared I won't be able to tolorate them!! I have some Sentrax Nectar samples coming in the mail. Please tell me not all of them are this awful!!!!
  21. Just mixed one up with water and can't drink it. I don't know if it would be any better mixed with milk or not.

    Appointments

    I had my cardio appt on April 2nd and it was NOTHING!!! He listened to my heart, asked me some questions, checked my legs for swelling and said OK I'm going to recommend you for surgery. I had to have an echo done because I had open heart surgery when I was 5 as I hadn't had one since since I was like 10.

    Pre op losing weight.

    My cousin has fibro and she does water arobics.
  24. I just got my samples from Unjury yesterday and all I can say is why didn't I order them sooner? I ordered the Syntrax Nectar samples and can't stomach them. But I've tried the chicken soup last night and couldn't taste anything!! Just mixed up a Strawberry Sorbet with a Lemonade Crystal Light and same thing! Can't taste a thing!!!
  25. Are you getting it too hot? It says the texture will change over 140 degrees. I think I got the chicken soup too hot today as it clumped real bad. I have one of the shaker cups with the wisk ball, and I mix in that and pour into another cup.
