Getting Dlcoggin To Post A Pic



Recommended Posts

I think that's what the anticipation is all about. He's been such an integral part of so many people's journeys, that they want to see his face! All in do time I suppose! : )

DLC we will <3 you no matter what... Picture or no picture. I also have only had my picture taken about twice in the past few years because I just didn't like it. So I have no before body shot. But it is nice to put a face to the name sometimes. Lol throw us a bone I'm picturing gray hair and a big smile!

OK. As you guys have noted, I promised you a picture. The plan was to do a “photo shoot” with number 2 son on Saturday. But life has a way of changing your plans. In this case, the world’s cutest grandson came down with a cold and along with it, a major case of very cranky little person. After Mom had pretty much reached her wits end, Dad was called on to carry on the battle. So the shoot had to be postponed. But hey, a promise is a promise. Right?

So I get this idea for plan B. “Honey, you know what we should do? It’s such a beautiful day, we should go for a walk in the park! As a matter of fact, I just remembered that I promised the guys on the forum a picture. So we could have a nice walk, get some fresh air, a little sunshine, and you could take a few shots at the same time. Great idea huh?”

Now as plan Bs go, I thought this one was pretty good. Then again, maybe not. The war department promptly pointed out to me that in spite of the fact that we live a couple of miles from the beach, Saturday was well on its way to near record breaking temperatures that eventually topped out well into the 90’s. With humidity very close to the same. I didn’t quite catch everything she said but there was little room for doubt that she didn’t think much of plan B. I’m pretty sure there was a reference on the order of “when pigs fly” in there somewhere.

“Babe, I know it’s a little warm out but hey, there are lots of trees and cool shade in the park! We could take black lab, have a little picnic, it will be fun! You know how you love picnics! Nice walk, nice lunch, communing with nature…it will be great!”

Now I’d like to say that she was simply overcome by my charming personality and quick wit. But truthfully, what followed was a considerable amount of groveling which quickly turned into just plain sucking up. As many of you husbands out there know, sucking up has a way of becoming very expensive. It has been suggested that in return for “saving your butt”, I should expect to see a world class shopping spree appear on our credit cards in near future. I think her exact words were - “Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.” These photos may well go down as the most expensive in history!

But hey, a promise is a promise! You guys have a great week!!

P.S. Still trying to figure out how to post a couple of more photos. Will let you know when I figure it out!

      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.
