Me Toitle is moving along !



Recommended Posts

Been almost 4 weeks since I seen my PCP, and on her scale I dropped 6LBS..

I see my specialist on the 25th. I want to see the difference in scale weights.

It will be 90 days since I saw him, so,,, I want to see what I lost in 3 months.

In the meantime: My Turtle is moving s l o w l e y.

Consistency is the key.

Shirley.

LOL Blondie has nothing to do with it. My Mother was from New York, and don't ask me if that is slang or a actual New York Thing Or Jersey Thing "PLEASE PEOPLE DON'T WRIGHT ME TO CORRECT ME ON THIS. IT GOES BACK TO FAR, AND IT'S TO CUTE"

Anyway we always had Turtles, Fish, and a Parakeet Back then this stuff was considered eccentric !

So she would put the turtles in the grass or on the cement to race ! When one of them would start moving, she would say "HERE COMES THE TOITLE, HERE COMES THE TOITLE !' So I guess it stuck! So my turtle finally moved, and I spoke it on paper the way I remember hearing it as a child.

I am glad you asked ! You deserve to know. Plus that term was also used in cartoons. So as kids we sometimes called them toitles.

My Husband even calls me Turtle with a twist added on to it. I won't go there though.

I hope you smiled at least 1 time threw this whole story..

      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.
