How about some NSVs!?!?



Recommended Posts

Today's NSV...driving with TONS of room to cross my legs!!

OMG, that's so funny! I do that too! On long highway trips I put on cruise control and sit cross legged, something I haven't been able to do in 20 years. I know it's not the safest, I only do it on deserted stretches!

I can't wait to get my hair done. I haven't been able to find a decent hairdresser in my area in about 10 years. My sister in law is also on the hunt for one in Boston so I think once she finds one there I'll take the trip up to see hers. I've decided to bob my hair for the fall/winter. And it'll help if I start to lose it. Can't wait!!!
Try Michael Wayne's in Wareham. I love them!

Really? I went in there at the beginning of summer and bought some Moroccan oil (love that stuff). Maybe I'll check out their reviews. Thanks for the tip!

I've gone out on three dates this month with three different men. And all have told me I'm beautiful.

I've never dated around in my life. I feel like I'm holding tryouts, lol.

In the past when I took a bath and drained the Water there would still be water behind me when I stood up because my body acted like a dam. Today I stood up and all the water had already drained out!! My body is no longer as wide as our tub!!! WooHoo!!

I got carded at the gas station the other day and the man didn't believe it was my ID. I had to explain to him that I have in fact lost a lot of weight & then proceeded to tell me how stunning I was and that he bets all the guys and girls are chasing me. Hahaha

Surgery Date: May 2, 2013 - Amount Lost: 96lbs

I went to visit my sister today and when I got into her house she said "I see you with those big ass pants on." We had a good laugh about that. So then when I get home my husband says "I see you in those BAPS (big ass pants)." He then tells me that I can't wear them anymore and he was taking me shopping for new ones this weekend. I told him I could wear them for another 20 pound lost. Needless to say he said absolutely not. We called my sister and she agreed with him. She said they would fall down so she hoped I would have on pretty undies when it did happen.

He then proceeded to demonstrate how they were bounced up in my butt. Lol! I guess I'm shopping this weekend!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
