My Black is Beautiful

by keemiekeem

My Black is beautiful, strong, courageous.

Powerful beyond the simple imagination.

Others look on, their mouths open in fascination,

Cause my Black is beautiful, strong, courageous.

So beautiful is my Black that all the world springs from her seed.

In fact, if God ever married, she would be His queen.

The Europeans come and like what they'd seen.

Black beauty ruling over diamonds and things.

Even saw the people and the strength they possessed.

So much, they took us and yall know the rest.

But still inside, Black kings and queens reigned.

Forced to listen to ignorant things.

But if the lion is the king of the jungle,Why is my Black king wearing his mane?

Or just because I'm Black, I need to be tamed.

Stereotypically, yet hypocritically, society judges me so critically.

Saying, "He's only good if he's an athlete physically,

Cause his Black can never make it in the real world mentally."

But actually, the only challenge right here is inside of me.

So I pour out my heart and hope my Black hears my plea!!

Let's go show the people who ruled the world for centuries!!

Pharoahs, kings, and queens over everything.

My Black is beautiful, strong, courageous.

That's why my Black is president over the nation.

They say the color happiness in today's world is green.

So it's time for us to shine and make Our Black seen.

      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.
