You crack me up. Good thing no one else will over see this conversation. Oh, oh wait! Oh crap.

Yeah, it's a good thing, this is so private!

Yikes! Can you imagine if my Mother read that?

I better be on my best behavior!

Me too!!! Of course, I always am. I'm a fairly conservative sort and all.

Pardon me?

Mini - is that you?

Who are you? And what have you done with my Mini?

We're sorry, ma'am. We have taken Mini away and replaced her with a socially acceptable grown up. We have determined that Mini is a bad influence on her students and must be muzzled for their protection.

nicnaknut: Funk it up. Ride the low tide til you hit the shore friend. The thing about the internet is we become friends but we don't SEE eachother daily in the face 2 face sense of the word. We don't all know some of the other challenges we all have in our lives. Keep coming here no matter what. Read even if you don't feel like posting anything. I don't think there is one person here who has had a perfect day. There's always tomorrow!

Thanks so much Patty for the kind and thoughtful words... You are so right about us becoming friends even if we don't see each other face to face... I need to remind myself that when I am here that I am among friends and we are all on this same journey together... Yep, and there is always tomorrow...

Good Job!

Who do I make the check out to?

Just kidding! I miss my Mini! Bring her back right now! Muzzle and all! I'll take her the way she is! She's a delight!

Besides, I hate socially acceptable grown ups! Yuck! Boring!

I have been in an emotional funk and ashamed of myself for not being a good bandster and went into hiding... I didn't want anyone to know that I wasn't being good... So, that's kind of the nuts and bolts of the whole thing, besides financially trying to afford the fills has been a challenge, but that's a whole other issue...

((hugs)) girly... I feel you on the not being a good bandster and having a hard time affording the fills. I am right there with you. Don't hide though! We all have ups and downs and are here to help pull each other up when we stumble. If you don't let us know, we can help. :laugh: :w00t: :tt2:

Hang in there... you will find your momentum. :lol:

LAP~ You are looking like a hot tamale my friend. Loved the slide show. Keep up the amazing work!

NSV for me today. I am wearing size 26's comfortably now. My 32's & 30's have been forbidden :thumbup: by my co-workers... along with some of my 28's. I have pigpen butt in those according to them. :crying:

I am pretty happy. Everything in my closet pretty much fits again. :lol: I dread having to get new clothes because we are tight on money... but I also look forward to buying pretty things. Ahhh such troubles. lol.

Don't know if I mentioned my hubby got a new job. So proud of my man. He is working as a mechanic now. :blink: He actually gets his ASE Cert in January... but he got hired on to work under a master mechanic to learn as he goes until then.

Lap -- Awesome pictures you look FABULOUS!!!! Keep up the great work.

Ador -- WTG on you NSV that is awesome, to bad you aren't closer and couldn't get in on the clothing swap. Are you still feeling okay?

Dee & Mini -- You ladies are too much, you had me in tears from laughing so hard at you. If my DH was home I would go upstairs and spank him just for you. I guess I'll do it when he gets home tomorrow.

Dee -- I am down 4 pounds for the last 2 weeks. Sorry I didn't weight in last week but we were outta town and I have been busy all week.

Went to a friends house for dinner tonight, it was fun. Didn't get stuck so that is always good. It's funny though how she kept trying to get me to eat more and drink more. She even made the comment "You used to be my fat friend" it really hurt that she couldn't be happy for me, I know she is just jealous because I am losing weight and finally feeling better about myself. It probalby doesn't help that her son and husband kept telling me I looked good.

I had to buy a few new pairs of shorts because everything I have is about 2 sizes to big and falling off me. It seems like nothing in my closet is fitting right now, its all so big on me.

Well, I hope everyone had a great weekend I am off to bed.:thumbup:

      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.
