Just the sight of liver at the grocery store makes me a little sick.

When I was at the grocery store as a kid, I used to push on the plastic wrap covering the liver. It just felt so weird. That and the cow's tongue. I don't see that in grocery stores anymore.

They have GMO cows now that are bred to not have livers or tongues... or perhaps Mcdonalds bought them all up.

Maybe the disappeared to the "veterans" site that we're all not worthy enough to see.

You can look, but just don't touch or we will send out the veteran with the ruler to smack naughty boys and girls hands!

Mine has pigs feet. Not sure I've ever seen the tongue before tho.

Sometimes I can't keep up.

But I DO like chopped liver (and Lipstick)

And I DO miss Laura's wisdom.

Relax, breath deeply and the time will fly by..Meanwhile do your part to help encourage those on here that need you too....

Helping others can cause burnout, and sometimes, when lots of other stuff is going on elsewhere, a wise helper takes a break. I work in a field where the staff really does a good job of staying on track in the face of confront, and avoiding burnout can be as little as taking a day for your self, letting someone else do the job for a while, or changing direction all together if needed. Not even saying that these peeps are burnt out... just a thought...life outside the "Pal" goes on....

I have missed Laura-Ven's no nonsense responses. I missed the "offending" post, I guess! Boo!

I'm guilty as a meat poker too. Ugh. Now I can't even touch raw meat. I blame the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies.

I always likes their wit and insight so I'm missing LV and GG. This sucks.

Still missing everyone. Hope they all return again one day & I pray all are well & having awesome success as they continue along their journeys! The site is not the same anymore & actually is quite boring. They really kept it alive on here! Best wishes to all sleevers!

      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.
