Wow Angie! You are almost half way there. I'm trying not to get back on the scale until thursday...which is my 3 week mark. I hasn't been a friend of mine recently. Though people at the gym have been commenting I look healthier.

Oh and the new pet peeve of mine...why do people ask what weight you strated at if they aren't going to believe you when you tell them. If one more person tells me I can't weigh what I say I do I might just go postal on them.

Can't wait to see all of you.

Melissa

Hello Everyone,

As of tonight, I won't be able to attend on saturday. I have some nasty boggerific bug thing, mostly sinus. I still have to work fulltime so I 'm going to use saturday as my "fall" apart day.

If something changes, I'll let you know.

Thanks Girls! I appreciate it. Kathy keep truckin girl! You can do it! I started exercising a lot harder and it started back up again. I was at a stand still for two weeks but it has started moving. I will try to remember that Nutritionist stuff for you! I am awful about remembering stuff I promise. Sorry!

I understand about the pet peeve. People do that to me too. It drives me nutz but then they compliment on how I look and all is good! :mad: Keep up the great work Melissa! I can't wait to say 50 pounds gone forever! :mad:

Well, I definitly won't be able to make it. I went to the dr's today and I have some type of vocal cord inflammation (I cannot talk right now) he wants me to take antibiotics for the infection and rest my voice until next week. This is hard for me to do, I'm a talker.

Feel better...Oh I have to tell you an exciting thing that happened this morning.

I went for my 7AM walk and saw a friend of mine who knows I have the band. I called her and said hi. She didn't answer, then when I got closer she screamed and said I didn't recognize you thats why I didn't answer.

What a great way to start a day! You better believe I'm going for another walk tomorrow morning!

Ok I called and they don't take call aheads. I told him that we didn't want to sit in the middile like we did before and he said that wouldn't be a problem..They have an area near the windows that will work for us. So if we want to meet in the lobby like last month we can get a table... :banana :banana :banana :banana :banana

They don't take call aheads but you can bet they appreciate the heads up that 10-12 talkative women are coming and we all want separate checks and most of us will likely do a Meg Ryan (what was that movie?) and order special things. LOL! That's okay. At least they know we are coming! Watch out Ruby Tuesdays!

It was great seeing everyone today!! We had a blast and had 2 newbies join us. Sherie for the first time and my friend Kami. We had a great time and we will have a picture of everyone to post soon...Actually I think it will be our best one yet.

Ok we missed a couple of people...Star W & Bondgirl...I hope everything is ok with the two of you and we missed you.

Go ahead and mark the date for next month...Dec 17th. It will be out last one...for this year. haha. We chose that day becase we have Parvathi that is going to join us so we wanted to plan it around her visit to the states.

Have a great rest of the weekend and we will chat later. Lets keep lossing ladies!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
