GOOD MORNING!!! << yes I'm shouting! Trying to wake up the room. :D

Hope everyone out in Springerville is doing awesome and staying focused!

It's going to be a great week, I can feel it in my bones.

I'm busy working and painting a house I'm in the process of buying. Which is quite a job when it's 112 here. Yes, that's pretty dang hot.

As far as weight loss? I've decided I'm just going to be one of the turtles that only loses one OUNCE at a time. I'm ok with that as long as it's a loss.

How about you? What's rockin in your world?

I saw in another post that you said you weren't exercising, just painting. My clinic would count that as exercising. Any movement that has you off the couch and moving. Give yourself a pat on the back for doing this! Especially in 112 degree weather!

 

Remember, slow and steady wins the race!

You're done painting? Or it's no longer 112? Or you hit your next goal? It's Monday?

Whatever it is WooHoo!

YES I am sooo done painting. No, it wasn't 112 yesterday, it hit 113. No haven't weighed this week yet. Decided I was getting a little OCD about the whole number thing.

 

Yes, in the fine print it was Monday and over all I had a great day. How about you?

I'm doing good. Trying to only weigh myself once or twice a week. It's not about the number on the scale, it's about how I feel...at least for now!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
