Missy so sorry to hear what's going on. But you did call him your boyfriend so I assume things are going well between you two. :thumbdown: Please let us know as soon as you can how things are going.

My BF and I survived our first disagreement. It was awful. We had these plans to go camping with my DD and SIL. Right up until the day before we were to leave, he was talking about what food he wanted to bring, and packing up his fishing stuff.

The next day he said he didn't want to go. He was afraid to tell me why.

It turns out he does not like my SIL. I can deal with that because my SIL is a great guy but can be a real butt sometimes too. I was more upset that he didn't think he could talk to me about it.

Bill thought we were going to break up over this. I told him I was in this for the long haul and we were bound to have disagreements from time to time.

Denise,

Glad to hear that you and him were able to work through your differences. Just remember if you never disagree about anything, there's something wrong :-)

My boyfriend is scheduled for an ultrasound on his liver tomorrow morning. His liver enzymes are high but he is feeling a whole lot better. We got to spend much of the weekend together and it was awesome. I missed him so much and he always tells me that I am truly a blessing in his life. He makes me so happy and I'm so glad I met someone who is so appreciative of me.

Missy - Sorry to hear about the BF but glad to hear that things are looking up finally for him and I will say a prayer that the doctors can finally find out what was ailing him.

Denise - It is wonderful that you have made it known to BF that you are there for the long haul. I agree with Missy, if you NEVER have an issue or at least a disagreement then there really could be a problem!

Chrispy - Thanks for the encouragement, I didn't think I was seeing that much of an improvement, but I can really see it in my face. I am about 1/3 of the way to goal. I have lost over 85 lbs already and would like to lose at least 160 more.

He got his results back from his ultrasound and they have found that he has an enlarged liver, which could mean anything from fatty liver disease to a liver cancer. They are going to send him to a liver specialist. I honestly thinks it's fatty liver disease, he eats fast food a lot and he's a little overweight. He's about 6 foot tall and 250 lbs but carries it very well, I find him so sexy!

He is doing ok. He was supposed to go to a liver specialist last Monday but with Hurricane Ike it's been pushed back a little.

I am praying for your BF Missy, keep us updated on any progress.

How is everyone else doing?

Well I have some good news everyone... I am so so very close to hitting the 100lbs lost mark and I think I am going to actually be able to do it before my bandiversary!!!

I finally got off my a** and started using my 24hr Fitness gym membership after 4 months of paying for it. I am now going to the Water Aerobics class there and it is awesome...I go 5-6 days a week, some days in the mornings and some in the evenings. I have lost 4 more lbs since I started at the beginning of the week. I feel great!

Well enough for now I hope you all are well.

That's great April. Exercise was the key for me and it made me feel great, as well as made the weight loss move a little quicker too.

I said this a little under 2 months ago:

I just want to say that men suck, dating sucks and the whole shebang sucks!! Men! You can't live with them and you can't shoot them! /end pityparty

How quickly life can change. I take it back. I take it all back!

      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.
