Starbucks chairs



Recommended Posts

After losing weight, I have noticed the little brown wooden chairs are kiddie size and uber uncomfortable for both the bum and the lower back. Oy! A coffee drink should come with a massage coupon. :) I am sitting in one of their kiddie size chairs today because my internet went out at home and I need an internet connection to do my work. These chairs need to be replaced! Rant out...

At least you fit in it, that beats having to stand because of the obvious. People still look at me weird when i ask for an armless chair at the Olive Garden...but not for long! Scheduled for June 13th!

Or support a locally owned coffee shop that doesn't scorch their Beans. Local coffee joints tend to have comfier chairs, ime.

Yes, I agree with that statement on comfier chairs and scorched Beans. The reality is, though, sometimes a star bucks is right there close by (within 15 minute drive) and has free Internet access. :) I do have my favorite local barista, but they are a drive through and, unfortunately, no Internet. I do live a bit out in the sticks and there are certainly more drive through options available for the commuters then there are sit downs.

Yes, great suggestion in fact. I do believe my local library in Snohomish has free Internet. Will look into that. No coffee though inside the library. :(

      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.
