Friends... did you lose any :(



Recommended Posts

our relationship has been strained for years and so I won't miss her at all. I've totally written her out of my life and I sleep well at night. I'm not stressing over it, she's just not worth it to me anymore. I fooled myself for a few years and forgave a LOT of crap she did to me, including almost destroying my family. Not even exaggerating here, she literally almost destroyed my family. I forgave but never forgot and now that she's pulled this crap I decided it was time to stop taking it on the chin and letting her walk all over me and just end our relationship.

So yeah, it's hard but honestly, who needs negativity in their lives? I certainly don't. I want positive people around me and people that support me. Anything else is a waste of my time and energy...energy that I'd rather spend helping others. ;)

I have known a few ppl that have had this problem. It can be threatening to the "friend" when they hear you're going to have surgery. Some of it is jealousy and some of it is fear of being left behind. This seems to be more the case when the friend is one that you have spent years dieting with. If it is a true friend, things will work out. Because any real friend would want to see you healthier and happier.

Keeping in mind that misery loves company. That addadge didn't come from no where. Keep positive people in your life and for those that are negative all the time about life and about you, well to put it bluntly, you don't need them. If you can make her life a more positive then so be it but if you can't then you are better off.

      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.
