    Pain ?

    i had my band nov 28th and am feeling good... no nausia thank god...however in answer to ur lathargic feeling...i too felt bad and cried because i felt so weak... being 14 days on clear liquids sucks.....this helped... a small amount of apple juice made me feel like a million bucks... i'm supposed to be sugar free ..one lil medicine cup did the trick... also... i made a huge veggie soup and strained it....wonderful! makes you feel like ur eating something.. i hope this helps..dont give up...you can do it!!! dr up that broth.. my surgery nurse and my surgeon ok'd this so i know its ok.. egg drop soup!! yummy... call and ask for some options ....good luck!!

    My Worst Fat Day EVER!

    ok i tried to edit my message because i missed a word and messed that up so here goes! i too understand that day, its everyday for alot of us. I think that would be a wonderful goal for me, to go out to dinner with hubby and not have to say NO BOOTH PLEASE! like the skinny lil waitress cant tell i wont fit ( some of them arent too brite and head you for a booth while you sweat with embarrassment) My kids even say that for me, well trained huh, and act like they prefer a table too:phanvan. The way you wrote ur day made me laugh, although i'm sure it wasnt funny, I appreciate ur humor! I think alot of us can say, BEEN THERE DONE THAT! thanks, for that this early, my surgery is Nov 28th and i'm so nervous, somehow that gave me some confidence, remember I dont want to feel that way anymore either, so Thanks!

    Biggest Loser

    I love the show too! Last night hubby and i were watching it and I was in tears when the spouses or signifigant others were on the other side the mirrors. The way some of the husbands looked at their wives, made me think, I want that. Don't missunderstand, hubby loves me very much and i know it, I just want to put that lil black dress on someday and wow him because he deserves it, and boy so do I !! Surgery date 1128, liquid diet not going too badly, turkey day will be hard:help: but i think i'll make it. I just keep thinking of standing on the other side of the mirror, in life, this is the beginning of my life and i'm ready. Look out world!!
