Lost My Best Friend



Recommended Posts

Thanks everyone. She was going to take my kids to the beach this week so I planned on having it a little easier for my second post op week. But I am actually really glad that they are home with me for some quality time.

One thing that has made it easier is this site/app. I've stayed off Facebook so I don't see her on there (we went to hs together so have lots of mutual friends).

Life will go on!

I completely understand! I lost my best friend of 28 years and my husband (of 5 years) in the same night! I called her to vent because I thought he was cheating and come to find out he was, with her. Needless to say my world came crumbing down that night, but I made it thru it; just as you will make it thru this. It is hard to deal with, it makes time to think about life and refigure everything, but just remember their is a reason some people come in your life and there is a reason people exit your life. There is a plan for you! Don't worry and keep your head up! I made it thru and you will too! :) We are here if you need to vent or chat! :)

Gagirl!!! Big hugs.....

Well I also lost my best friend 5 years ago and I still miss her terribly. As more time passes I pray for the chance to bump into her and try again, but it hasn't happened. I think of her all of the time and miss our friendship. My life has needless to say completely changed, and I wish I had her by my side to share the journey. BUT I believe people are in your life for a time.

I have since made some great new friendships and good bonds but... Que sera sera!

I wish her all the best in life and keep strong on my path.

It's hard I know.... Especially in the things you share. Insides jokes, fav foods, and family. But work in you girl. I'm so sorry for your loss, and all of us like her who have lost a great friend.

Surgery date 7/25/12

No I walked away and let her have him! I have no idea how long it was going on; don't want to know either! I filed my divorce papers and kicked him out!

Lost my best friend last spring as well. I live in a small town so unfortunately I still have to deal with her snootiness and her above all otherness as there is only one school and both our girls are in the same grade and some extra curricular activities. I just try to blow it off even though it still hurts some times & I have made some of the best changes for the good in my life since then. Not only my RNY but I have met some amazing new friends!

      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.
