Yes, Lap, post a pic!

dee - I love the phrase "upgraded boyfriend". That's adorable.

Brandy - it will work. You've been so successful with your band. I know you'll do fine once you get a fill. This is just a little bump in the road.

Mini,

I will always remember when you told me about your ex and your present upgraded hubby -- how sweet and loving your new hubby is and how I will one day find someone as special.

I hope I've found that person. I never thought I deserved to be loved or adored. My ex reminded me often of how there wasn't anyone out there who would love me and how I didn't deserve to be loved because I was so disgusting. It's hard to believe that someone would love me - when I hear those words in my head. I'm working hard to push those negative words out of my head and to believe that I do deserve to be loved by someone as sweet and good as my UGBF is.

I know. It's so hard to get that crap out of your head. But you KNOW you deserve this. You give so much to everyone else and it's time you get something back. Your karma bank is full and it's finally paying those dividends. Just enjoy and let it all unfold.

DENISE?!?

Anyone see her lately???

Brandy, Thanks for missing me...we ended up going to see the in-laws in S.Dakota for a few days and got back late Tues. It was so fun though...went to Sturgis, Mt.Rushmore and a few other places. I have to say when we went to Paris in May I thought the Eiffel Towee was amazing, but seeing Mt.Rushmore blew that away!!! Rach & I even went to Water arobics 2 days.

Ms. Dee, Happy Happy Birthday dear. I am sitting here right now eating a piece of cheesecake just for you (Fresh banana cream pie cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory). I figured that you didn't need those pesky calories. You look wonderful and are doing such a great job.

Mal, It sounds like your sons friend is doing better. I will say a few catch-up prayers for him. And continue to keep you all in my prayers.

Deb -- So glad that Tucker is doing better.

Lap, A grandson, what a surprise. But loved just as much!!!

      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.
