Son Gave Me An Nsv And Didnt Even Know It!



Recommended Posts

I am a mom of there boys aged 14,18 and 21. The middle one is about 5'9" and built stocky but has changed his stature into muscle because he is a body builder. Yesterday when he came home from the gym he came up to hug me, let go real quick and said "woah let me try that again." So he hugged me again and said "mom, I can get my arms around you soo much better now, I bet I could throw you over my shoulder " needless to say I didn't let him do that but he made me feel so good!!! When you see yourself everyday in the mirror you don't notice the changes. Its so nice for others to notice and tell you.

Congrats. There is nothing better than a son giving praise to his mom, as they don't do that but once in a blue moon. :wub:

What a great feeling! My nine year old son did something similar a few weeks ago. I was driving with my arm at the top of the steering wheel. He said "your arm is so tiny". Its an even better feeling knowing they don't have a clue how their one little comment makes us feel so wonderful!

Keep up the great work!

I agree, it brought tears to my eyes. Sometimes it seems like they are not paying attention to anything and then they shock you with something so unexpected. It really is amazing what all this journey has opened my eyes to.

Aaaaww my 4 year old ask me every day why I'm not eating and gave me a hug everytime he can... I guess he feels sorry about me.

      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.
