Labor Day Gift Exchange



Recommended Posts

Hello all, I'm in for another round! This time it is the Working Class Stiff exchange. (WCS's) We will try to make this a work themed exchange in honor of Labor Day.

Labor day is September 4th this year so here are the dates.

Sign up until July 30th. Send me a PM with your name and address and your job. (nurse, stay at home mom, etc.)

Confirmation PM's will go out July 31st. and you will have until August 6th to respond.

August 7th you will receive your WCS and have just about a month to get your gifts out.

As with the last exchange we will have substitute WCS's and if any one has any ideas or suggestions please let me know.

Several people asked me last time how much they should spend. I recommend around $25 including the shipping, but any gift is appreciated no matter how much or little you spend. It's just the fun of getting a package in the mail, and we had several hand made gifts last time that were just lovely!

Happy sign ups!

howdy...sorry this might seem like a silly query...but what does it mean that it is a "working" theme? By giving our occupations...does that have something to do with it? Do we give something that is related to the occupation of the person whose name we get?

Sorry if it is a silly query; just want to have it straight in my head before I sign up!

Tks.

      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.
