ms_ladybug 24 Posted January 5, 2015 HELP, I have a crisis: our Controller wants to take our group for a late holiday lunch to Bravo!Cucina Italiana on Wednesday. Of course I have surgery on Thursday and Wednesday is my last work day for several weeks. I haven't given details on what surgery I'm having, it's private and I'm only a contractor but would love a regular job if they'd hire me. Do I just decline + appear anti-social, or go and eat like a chicken Caesar salad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do I just decline + appear anti-social, or go and eat like a chicken Caesar salad? It's a great time of year to have the excuse of dieting! Just tell them your on a dr supervised diet and order an ice tea or something. People really don't push if your confidant and clear in what you say. I've sat at many meals socially sipping on Water or tea the last three weeks. People are respectful when you have a simple answer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BusyHoosierMom 33 Posted January 6, 2015 @@Jill Pill- your info about TJ has been helpful reducing my own anxieties. Hope things went well yesterday with your surgery and I'll be watching for an update. ???? @mduffield- it's almost time! Flying out early on 1/8 and surgery on 1/9! I'm down 13 lbs on the pre-op diet and am now just below my surgery goal weight. I increased the salads and the hunger wasn't as bad. Look forward to seeing you there!

Lisa22280 42 Posted January 6, 2015 Hello friends, reporting from the other side. Surgery went smooth. Gas wasn't bad. Worst part was coming out of anesthesia all day yesterday. Besides being tired because my rude room mate left her tv and light on all night. I'm feeling much better today. Waiting for dr. To come in to start my diet, I pray I will be able to tolerate the food. Hang in there everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
