You deserve to treat yourself, that's for sure. I don't know what I'm going to do. I already bought myself a Harley for hitting the 150 lb lost mark....not sure what I should do to top that.

Take your wife and the Harley to Sturgis.

I plan to:

1. Get a small tattoo - a Chi Rho.

2. Go hiking down Havisupai creek in the Supai Reservation and to the Grand Canyon down and up the Bright Angel Trail.

3. Go to the Glen Ivy spa for a massage, and pedicure.

Are you really hiding a Harley LMAO ? I haven't tried to hide anything that big from my husband yet it's usually jewelry.

Cowgirljane

i know i've mentioned this before - so if you already know - sorry for having to read it again :(

when i was very' date=' very close to goal i got a tattoo

in small italic letters - first letter of each of my 3 grand-kids names with a red heart under each letter

M organ (12) A ndrew ( 9 ) E than (5)

:wub: :wub: :wub:

if you are not a grand-parent its hard to imagine the love "you feel for your grand-children :) "its" an amazing feeling :)

hubby wasn't "thriied" that I got a tattoo :(

but i promised him i wouldn't get another one for the next 58 years :lol:

Cowgirl and all - do something out of the ordinary when you reach your goal

maybe run in the middle of the road screaming I lost 150 lbs WooHoo!!!! ;)

btw

congrats on your amazing weight loss!!!! :) [/quote']

Wow how cool is that !! Might steel this idea! Have no tats at this age but having my two grand kids names /initials would be great!!

How much is too much to spend on yourself when achieving goal? Not saying a Harley is too much, but now I want to up my original goal "present" to myself. Too bad the economy is in the crapper though. I am a violinist and have always wanted a decent pro violin (read 30k, 50k and up), but I don't think I am going to sneak that one by my wife! Lol. Now I think I will need to stick with my 8k one. Just so you know, I am a software developer by day for a major company, fiddler by night. One glory moment was playing at showbox in Seattle with my celtic band years ago. Now, I mostly hang out with jam sessions.

What I really want to do is go to Maui. What I really need to do is to fix the roof.

      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.
