My new walking partner



Recommended Posts

Jake was adopted by an old woman who did not know he was going to be a big boy. He is part Dalmatian and part Lab. The lady was going to take him back to the humane society but a young guy decided to foster him until he could find him a good home. He brought him over to meet us today and it was love at first sight. 63lbs of love.

Part Dalmation, he will be a good fast-paced walking partner, too. None of that pussy-footing around! Have fun with your new doggie -- so happy for you.

Jake is really a sweet dog. I thought he would be hard to handle since he has not walked on a leash in a long time but he was really good. I don't know who is more out of shape me or him. We were both panting at the end of the walk. I think he is more scared of the cats then they are of him.

Bandista is EIGHT! I had a Dalmatian and he was full of energy and FUN all the time. I still cry for him. (He's the one in my default pic ) ;)

      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.
