Recommended Posts

Hey guys.

So... Today I went to Worlds of Fun with a friend. Last time I went was a few years ago, when Iw as about 350 pounds. I barely fit on any rides, ost of them I didn't even dare to try after I tried one and had to embarrassingly walk away in front of everyone. Ugh. ANYWAY. so yeah. I fit on all sorts of rides! I was so excited! But now, between the sun and the heat and the lack of proper hyration I'm EXHAUSTED! Oh, and I completely enjoyed about 1/3 of a massively large funnel cake. Lol.

OK, I'm going to take some tylenol, drink a gallon of Water, and go to bed!!

WTG suzzziee!!!!! How fun is that?!?!!

I bought tickets to Six Flaggs last year and I couldn't fit on some of the rides. They were soooooo tight trying to squeeze in, and then I would be sitting next to my so so I'm worried about it not being tight enough for him since my big ole bootie is in there. UGH!!

Such a different story this year!!!! Now I wish I could get some of them a little tighter (I'm sliding around too much!!!)

Where did the Junies go? It's been reallly quiet around here! I know it's Summer and play time, and trip time, so on and so on. I haven't been on here in almost 3 days myself.

I HOPE HOPE HOPE and PRAY that Stef is ok!!!!!

yesterday was my 1 year bandiversary :Angel_anim:

I didn't hit my goal but I'm close and I am completely ok with that!!

I will get pics taken in the next day or so. Life seems to have gotten crazy right now - work is doing layoffs, kids are in different directions and hard to keep up with, and it's time to kick off another busy season at work!!!!

Anyway - it's been quiet around here so I assume everyone is out enjoying the sunshine and our new smaller bodies!!! WOOHOOOO!!!

HUGS to all :smile2:

Congrats Wombat. Happy Band. I know you look hot already. It's so great to hear the things people can now do that they couldn't/didn't dare do before.

I too am worried about Stef and I assume the real world is getting in the way of her internet stuff. Still Stef, if you read this post an 'I'm OK' or send someone a text.

Stef is checking her myspace, and posting on her kid's pages, so I'm sure she's okay. Summer activities have taken over in her household, like mine.

My body isn't *all* that much smaller, but I sure am enjoying this summer more that ones before. Hiking is soooooo much easier!

      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.
