Hey Sherri,

Glad you like it! I couldn't think of any thing work related because you own a restaurant, so I figured whats a business owner need after a long day of work? Something to pamper themselves with. You better open it and you better use it!!!! Treat urself! So glad you like it.

You are so welcome, Amy. I too had a hard time with the "work related" thing, but I thought maybe you could use the basket/organizer thing on your desk and the "smelly" stuff - well that's just for relaxing AFTER work. Maybe light the incense, put on the CD, and climb in a hot bubble bath.

"Oh, Canada..."

My SWS gift arrived this morning!!!

Carol (Woodys), who is banded and currently at MY goal weight, sent a lovely box with the man in brown shorts. The card touched my writer’s heart, and you have my love of whimsy.

The picture is coming. I had to have a cup of mint medley and read one of the books.

The gift package included:

A tote bag with the caption: Writers Rule

The Wrong Word Dictionary (boy, will that come in handy)

Oxymoronica by Dr. Mardy Grothe (a book that was on my wish list)

A Canada mug filled with a variety of Bigelow teas (I am a mint tea addict)

Three resistant bands (most of the weight I’ve lost is by working out with bands)

A visor for Changes Fitness Centre for Women

A cap for Woodys Fine Dining

One summer, I am going to explore Canada. I’ve never been, but my SWS gift came from the Maple Leaf Land, and I am soooo hyped in the beauty of the country. And yes, when I go, I will have to visit Fenelon Falls, Ontario and Woodys Restaurant. Carol, the menus have my mouth watering. Plus, I can work off the delicious meal next door at Changes Fitness Centre for Women. All I need now is a clothing store for my new size.

Carol, thank you for such a lovely gift with so much thought to my occupation and things I love. I hope that we meet one day.

Joyce

I got my gift yesterday. Wanted to say a big thank you to my secret sam she took the time to find something special for me and I thank her so much. She sent me a cd of the music from an Aus. show that I love but can't see in the US anylonger and truly miss it. I have already listened a # of times the music is so soft and truly relaxing. Thank you my secret sam I would name you but I don't know your board name. With great thanks. Judy

      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.
