Have a place to set the bowl of popcorn---and keep it away from the kids with your elbows!:mad:

Babies LOVE jumping on our built-in trampoline!

We are more gullible when it comes to buying diet anything--so the 'diet' market seeks us out and we are their godsend! It is nice to be someone's target audience! lol

You can hide things on your person or even in your FUPA.

If our plane goes down in the frozen tundra we'll be the last to be eaten.

Of course that means WE'LL be the ones doin' the eating. Ladyfingers anyone?

We give the medical industry and fast food franchises a stable employment base.

We can show empathy for fat people, after we stop being fat.

You can stand up and take your chair with you and still keep your hands free.

You get told you have a big personality.

You feel warm longer than everyone else.

We are often fitter than we think - with strong muscles and reasonably good cardio fitness (from lugging our fat behinds around 24-7).

More padding!!

Honest to God, yesterday I accidently stepped on a National Geographic that was lying on the carpet and did a sideways *SWOOSH!* right on my turkey-plump glute and didn't hurt a thing! A skinny lass woulda bruised a hip for sure!

      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.
