Recommended Posts

Today started out brilliantly ,did my 51/2 miles drink 60 gm of Protein and was just relaxing on the couch when I got a call from a number I didn't recognize, I usually just ignore ,but today I answered and now I can't stop crying ,I feel so sad , so helpless , so angry!! It's so surreal it's cant be true , my best friend for 31 years the person I just spoke ,to ,who had made plans to see and hang out with when I leave for Seattle this summer has died....... My friend Ethel the one person who has been there for me through thick and thin ,has died of an brain aneurysm ,she's gone I'll never see her face and hear her laughing ,I'm angry as hell !! We weren't finished ,we had so much more to do , to say , to experience !! We were suppose to grow old together rocking on the front porches with our grand kids and husbands, she has four grand kids to my zero , i will fly to Seattle next week to be with my dear friend one last time I miss her like crazy already my world is forever changed . RIP Ethel my true dear friend what will I do without? ;(

I'm so sorry for your loss, our school faced the exact same thing this time last year she was only in the 7th grade. Find someone to talk with, let yourself grieve and remember all the times you had together and cherish your memories.

I'm truly sorry for your loss. Wish I could do something to comfort you. Your post hit me truly in the heart and it took me awhile to respond as I've lost someone so suddenly myself. May the peace that passes all understanding find you. I'm so sorry. I know she will live deep in your heart forever.

      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.
