Danyett, welcome! Nice to have another local on here to drag to Red Robin every month.

Julie, no change for me. Haven't gained, haven't lost. It was a crazy week here...homecoming week at the high school where I work, and I was in charge of the dance. So relieved it's over.

sounds fun!!!!

Dee- Thanks for the hint. That made my life a LOT easier. I have been copying and pasting (which is why the loss I put in for you yesterday didn't show up!!!) :biggrin:

I did no dancing. Not sure you could call what the kids did dancing either...more like foreplay. You'd be horrified to see how teenagers dance these days (wow, I sound old). Lots of grinding and they don't ever face each other.

Luckily, all my purchases at Party City were covered by the school.

Oh my! I could respond to that, but it's best not to... Yikes!

The dance was fun. I'm exhausted though. I only had time to eat crappy this week, and didn't get to go to Water aerobics at all because my school has homecoming events all week, every night. I'm amazed I didn't put any weight on.

The Hall of Fame Induction was sooo cool. Roger and I had a blast. Of course I didn't win at the casino, but loved it. The casino is huge and I got lost three times.

Yippie!

I just got my HgbA1C results!

It's 5.3. That means my average blood sugar is running 110.

I am thrilled!

Before losing weight, I was pre-diabetic and I couldn't get my A1C below 5.6. It just wouldn't budge!

Another NSV!

I love NSV's!!!:biggrin:

Wow, that is really impressive! Congratulations!!!! That's a very IMPORTANT NSV!!!

I need to have mine checked again. It was still stuck on 5.9 last time, but I'm really hoping it has gone down.

      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.
