A thread for people who dont argue, name call, dictate or generally just be nasty.

We're close, I'm in Yakima. :)

Ahh.. I lived in Yakima many years. Went to YVC, met my husband, married, first child there, graduated CWU and then moved for work, but many awesome memories there. In-laws are gone now so we don't get there much.

I'm not nasty, but I do argue a lot. It's the best way to test my arguments for weakness! You can't test arguments without arguing! It violates the whole purpose of having an argument! I also name call, ESPECIALLY if I'm playing Borderlands 2.

Can I still hang out?

Nope. Not here!

Then I will take my tongue-in-cheek attempt at levity and depart your thread. Have a good day!

AussieLady,

What were you doing awake at 2:10am?

If your answer is exercising, then you are totally excused Lol

Since I got my sleeve I have nights where I just don't sleep. Last night was one of this nights. Has anyone else had this problem since getting sleeved?

Yes, unfortunately. I now take a sleep aid to help with that.

Yes!!! I find myself awake all hours of the night. I just cannot sleep.

Later in the day I'm exhausted and then wouldn't you know it, I can't sleep again that night.

Count me in to the owl club. My remedies include magnesium tablets(chewed up), b6, a pain killer of some kind, and melatonin. I have always had trouble with sleeping so I can't blame it entirely on the sleeve. It seemed to get worse years ago when I worked 3rd shift followed by another job back to back with it on 1rst shift; my workaholic days. Also living in South Africa for 6 months played into it .

My sleep clock is messed up, I normally take a nap around 2 in the afternoon. I have tried to stay awake during that time and reset it but have not been successful thus far.

I take 2 unisom and it really helps me. Some of the other OTC remedies do not work as well for me or give me a hangover the next day (Costco sleep aid does this).

My dr prescribed me Xanax to help with the sleeplessness and it made me get up and raid my cabinets/refrigerator.

I cannot take it because then I start snacking instead of sleeping.< /p>

Ugh :(

I have Xanax as well and it does help sleep. I find that if something, (or someone , **plants vs zombies playing wife** ), wakes me up I have a hard time getting back to sleep no matter what I had taken. I try to save the Xanax for visits from annoying relatives. :huh:

I was having a hard time sleeping as well - until I amped up my exercise routine - using my fitbit - I never go without getting in 10k steps now - and I guess that wears me out :-)! However, I do agree with you guys - if I am woken up in the middle of the night (like my dogs barking) - I find it difficult to go back to sleep - but I'm not sure that is because of the sleeve.

      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.
