I ran into my general GP at the local store the other day and she could see the weight loss and I was beaming icon_razz.gif with happiness she was really overjoyed for me I told her I was waiting to loose a bit more before I came to see her so I could surprise her, she said wow !! we will soon have you off all your meds...lol.. I think I wan`t to stay on them for a while yet (anti depressanta/High B.P and Cholesterol) , but will go see her in a couple of months to have blood tests done again......

Well I am off to the shops this beautiful sunny Saturday morning , pick up a cake for tomorrow (mothersday lunch here with the folks and my one son who is around) will take a look at some size 18 jeans for me too ..I feel like aggy baggy in my size 20`s but will keep wearing them till they are too bad I just need one or 2 pairs of smaller ones to go out in..lol..

Hugs ...Marion

Hi

Sounds like you had a get Mother's Day and you are looking very good.

I had a rather busy Mother's Day. My mother, who is 86, lives in a retirement home and they called me at 1:30 a.m that she fell and she was going to the ER at the hospital. So, I got up and went to the hosiptal and spent the day there wiht her. She was admitted and they are trying to find out why she is dizzy and her neck in hurting. However, all was not lost for the day. I did get to talk to my son, who lives near Washington DC, and my daughter, who lives in Southern Illinois who sent me beautiful roses.

Hope you, and everyone has a good week.

Karen

Oh ! Karen thats not good about your Mom at all..I hope your Mom is o.k ..

My Mum is 87 and is wheelchair bound after a stroke 3 years ago , my 90 year old Dad still cares for her , my sister and I cook some good meals for them and Dad manages Snacks and microwave meals on the odd day, My sister also cleans for them and Mum has a nurse come in to help her bathe..

I take them to do their banking /shopping and doctors appointments ..we are lucky to have them live just down the road from us , we talked them into moving closer about 12 years ago before that it was 1.5 hours drive and we would not be close enough in emergencies like we are now....

(HUGS) and prayers for your Mom coming from across the miles.....

Have a Good week...

Happy Mother's Day marion and friends! Sorry I'm a little late on the well wishing! Sounds like you had a lovely day!

Looking GREAT there girl! I see the difference just from your photos. Saw that your GP noticed as well! Now THAT must feel great! To have someone else notice! Well done!

Finally have my appointment to "meet" my surgeon on may 28th. Hoping to get a surgery date then! Keep your fingers crossed for June!! The waiting is so hard. My BMI is just above 40, so I can't lose any weight in order to qualify for the surgery!! Never have I ever been told NOT to lose weight!! Quite a change!!!

Anyway, enjoy the week and I'll catch you in a few days.

      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.
