Cloe-Missing In Action.....NOT!!!!



Recommended Posts

Come, Come.....;) ...Awwwwwe I needed that!!!

I have been missing you guys. You guys are always on my mind!! Hope this post finds you all well.

I want to explain my absence. So much has been going on, it's been crazy.

Some of you already know about my stupid-never-ending bladder/kidney infections. But know my doc has discovered I have this irregular heartbeat, What!!!! So I've been going to sooooo many tests, docters, samples, you-name-it. Good news is, they don't think it's anything horrible. Bad news, they don't really know why.:phanvan . The back of my brain tells me not to worry to much, so I'm trying not to.

I've been working with a personal fitness trainer for about a month now. She is awesome, I love her. We meet once a week for a great(brutal) work-out, then she writes out what I'm suppose to do for the week. I feel really good. Problem is, she found out what a scale-junkie I was and took it away!!!:) !!! She might as well just cut off my right leg. I've literally went threw withdrawls. So my ticker is probably(better be) out of date. I'll update my ticker next week when I get to re-unite:love: with my scale for "1" quick weigh-in.

I've been doing alot of craft sales, business has been good. I've pretty much convinced myself to open a little country shop out of my house and also sell on-line. I've been doing alot of investigating into this idea. If anyone has any experience in this I would love to hear from you.

My Band, my band is doing great!! I havent had anymore fills since the end of February. I am very tight in the morning, usually just drink coffee and a boost. I can eat during the day but have to be very careful. I would have to say that I'm very very close to my sweet spot. That's good news!!

I'm heading over to check out all the new posts now. I'm gonna try to take in as much as I can. If anyone wants to get in touch with me quicker, just PM me. I try to pop in even if it's just to check my PM's.

I LOVE MY BAND!! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!

Take Care

Cloe:)

Hey Cloe!!!!

Glad they're sortin' out the problems with the kidney/bladder and now heartbeat!! From what I understand "irregular heartbeats" aren't that significant....so don't fret too much. All my life, I've had what is termed a "heart echo".....which usually causes some confusion when they listen to my heart...but it's nothing really. Keep us updated on that front.

Kudos to your fitness trainer for taking away your scale!! hehe! But, more importantly WAY TO GO for working with one and sticking to it! You are gonna notice some changes, my friend!!!! (re-sculpting!). Keep up the awesome work!

Opening a lil' country store sounds like a kewl and fun idea! I'll check it out once you have it up and running (if)...!!!

Don't feel bad about not coming here as much....you have a life!!! The only reason I'm here more than usual is because of the "R" thing!! LOL...but that won't last long!

Take 'er easy!

Glad to hear from you and that things are OK. Ditto about what Yoda said...you have a life. About the heartbeat, I was in the middle of a stress test when I had a bunch of extra heartbeats. An echo cardiogram confirmed that it was nothing to worry about. Lots of people have these things crop op especially at our age.

Hi Cloe,

You sounds like you have it together! Try not to worry too much about the medical problems, let the Drs sort it out and then deal with it. You are banded - you can do anything!!!

Online stores are the way to go. I would suggest to get a good web developer and very good software. I don't have personal knowledge but from what I understand that "shopping cart" can often make or break your business. It has to be easy to use for the consumer as well as for you. Good luck and let us know when you are online. Bandsters...break out the CC (not cottage cheese....credit cards)!

Hi Chloe, hope all is well in your world. I have started working with a trainer 3 times a week and tonight she was drilling me about how often I weigh myself....daily. Anyways, I won't be giving her any ideas by sharing your story. Hope you have a sweet reunion. You are doing great!! Yippee!:clap2:

      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.
