Hi there - how's your summer going?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone - how are you all??? Hope that Santa was good to you, and that you are all having a wonderful summer break, wherever that may be in our wide, brown land.

We just got back today from 3 weeks camping at Cowes (Phillip Island) - bliss!! Although I feel like I ate my way throught the holiday, and was VERY lazy to boot. Hmmm, I'll find out the damage on the scales when I weigh myself in the morning, and will get back into the groove of exercising this week. Promise. Really. I have a fill scheduled for Friday - I really need it!!!

Welcome to all of the new Aussie members who have joined over the past month or so, and I haven't "met' you yet. Good luck with wherever you're up to so far, and I am looking forward to chatting with you soon.

That's it for now, time to catch up on the latests posts.... ...see you around!

Hey Anna,

were your ears burning? Tolmc and I were only chatting about you a matter of minutes ago. I dont have your email address and she said she's sending you an email over the next day or so. Glad you had a great, relaxing time at Phillip Isl. I was VERY bad over Christmas too, just couldn't resist the Lindt chocolates. I was pretty nervous about going for my appt last Friday but I still managed to lose 1.7kg in 3 weeks over chrissy so am stoked. Hope all is going great for you and the family.

Talk soon.

      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.
