My brothers second wife had been married 5 times before him...and they had all died I couldn't help but wonder if she was a black widow! They split up, and she moved out of state... but he wooed her back again, and they are living together again. I don't think of her as a black widow now, but what that must have been like losing 5 husbands!

Hi ladies. Sarsar I have my 3 take a portrait together every 5 years. They actually look forward to it. Its wonderful to look back on. The last one they were 20,25, and 30. Yep my crew are. 5 years apart. One day I will take a true family pic when I think I photograph thinner. I don't know why they ask for your weight on US drivers licence. They have your pic. I am sure everyone lies. CGJane the lift was my problem too. Is skiing something u think you will stick with for a winter sport? I remember liking the smell. It was freshh and clean. I am a city girl and fresh air and wide open space was something to be enjoyed. Haven't heard from M2 lately. U out there? Family had pizza yesterday. Sleeve only allows one slice. Hubby put away four slices almost half a pie. OMG! Sunday will be the last food related event for me. Its a tradition from hubby side. The last Sunday of the year his grandma would empty the fridge and cook everything. Not sure of the superstition behind that but it was. A tradition in their family. It has turned into a year end brunch blow out. Hubby cooks for it all Breakfast and brunch items waffles, eggs, biscuits, gravey,bacon, u get the idea plus donuts, Bagels, his friends bring other goodies. This year my contribution if fried apple fritters. Iths called the Feast of Saint Feed Your Fat face! It starts around 10 and last year the last person left at 4. My hubby is a black belt and runs a Karate school. He has zero family here in Cincy but this day all of his Karate buddies come over eat, tell stories, laugh and enjoy. I am glad he does this. He really enjoys it. I am busy helping him host so only nibbling. But it is an all day eating feast with these guys.actually I commented once on how sinful and glutinous this feast was. Hubby was offended. He compared it to Thanksgiving harvest and such. Its the few times in the year his martial arts buddies get together and not in competition. To me its a scene from a Viking movie. Hubby loves it! Once the feast is over I can get back to a normal eating pattern again. Well hang tight ladies we'll be back to normal soon

I finally replied to Alexs invite to become a host, have not heard back from him, he probably had enough "hosts" but I decided after some thought I could commit to it...

If you ask me I think he needs more "super vet" hosts... I'll poke him to make sure he got your response. Ok major headache today.. I'm sure all the crappy eating and drinking this last week had something to do with it.. Detoxing is a b***h. I have a family party to go to today.. It was just thrown at me, it's at my crazy aunties house. I haven't seen these people in years so it should be fun. But I know there will be no good choices for me there so I'll pray for strength. And bring some yogurt..

EDIT!!!!!!!

I have been dreading weighing for three days now.. Because I have given in to holiday crap the last week :(

But I have weighed today, drumroll please.......

The same weight!!! 147!!!!

Hail to the 5:2!

It's funny I've been schlumping around in sweats feeling BIG BIG for several days knowing I've gained. Just got out if the shower and threw on my tightest skinny pants to feel good. :)

      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.
