It's the Rants and Raves forum. It's a bitch fest most days. I only hit it every once in a while.

We got geared up to ride today, even met the folks but it started misting on the way there. Alison and I decided not to go, but the three others decided to ride. It started to really rain when we were about a mile away. I don't know what they ultimately did...

I can ride cold, but not cold and wet. NO way!

Glad you had a good weekend with your friends.

Okay, so I know this is OT from all the outstanding conversations we've been posting here today, but...

When was the last time you were walking up to a store and saw yourself coming in the reflection?

Holy Sh*t!!! Happened today. Not happy. I kept trying to look away, but it was like those va jay jay photos, I just had to look! I am so happy I'm being banded soon. I start my liquid diet on Thursday. Get my Band the Thursday after that! YAY for me!

Remember that feeling looking at your reflection...before you know it, you'll see yourself again, and go damn, that's me!

And please take some pictures of yourself before Thursday. Get in a swim suit or shorts and a tank top. Have your husband take them. You'll hate it, but you'll be happy to have them later. Promise!!!

Yeah, I know. I asked my daughter to do it! DH isn't allowed! LOL I am also going to take my measurements. I'm sure at some point it will come in handy when I need a NSV.

I have some pics in my bedroom of my honeymoon (only 6 years ago) and I actually looked at them. They are my before the Before pictures ya know? What's worse is, I thought I was fat then! So sad. Shame on me. Good example of learning to love yourself and live for today.

I always wanted a motorcycle. I even learned to drive one, but I'm too much a chicken.

Very cool. I think this thread needed a boost of testosterone, with the vagina dialogs happening.

So I was supposed to go downtown for the Tigers opening day today but the weather sucks and no one wants to go with me. What a waste of a day off work.

I just emailed you, asking if you were there, I had to double check my email for dirty words...

Sorry your people are sucking and not going with you. Who are the tigers? What do they do?

      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.
