Welcome back Madam! You look fabulous. I'm so glad you are seeing it now.

As for the sun, one word: HAT! Protects thinning hair from sun damage and exposed scalp. Plus, it looks exotic when paired with oversized sunglasses and you don't have to slather as much sunscreen on your face, ears, and neck.

Like everyone else, I adore your witty posts and admire your helpful tips to those in need.

Thank you, Lynda.

I'd love to say I do see it, but more often than not, I don't. I just felt happier and healthier within myself being in the sunshine.

As for the hat - that is sooooo my style. However, the man thought I looked a bit too Cannes film festival, when I tried one on! (He's from the deep south!)

When the confidence quotient increases a bit more, I will be sure to do a Sophia Loren on it in the (hopefully) not too distant future :) x

Maybe one with a sporty brim then, but you can't beat those big Sophia Loren film festival ones for sun protection! The girlie fedoras are cute and would at least protect your ears, forehead, and scalp.

My hope for you is that as time goes by you more often see the you we all see. I know I still have days I feel fat (really - I'm at the lower end of normal BMI!), ugly, wrinkly,old, whatever. And then most days I feel pretty good about myself.

Hi Madame Rev,

I missed you too! After wondering why I hadn't seen any posts from you in a while I did a Madame Rev search today to find you (I'm not a stalker just a fan of your posts).

Happy to see you were on vacation and had a great time.

Glad you're back.You keep things interesting and fun!

B

      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.
