Good job on the big fast ride tonite J!!! You are kicking your weights ass!!!!

Where is JC????

Thanks for all the happy birthdays!! I fixed Zatarains Black Bean and Rice with hamburger for dinner and am just fine with that. Why has eating out been such a huge part of birthdays???? I am stopping this NOW....with the birthday!!! NO more eating out just because it is someones birthday!!! Once in awhile, but not my immediate family!!!! NO MORE!! I mean it!!

So, next week is my DD bday. Where do you all think I should take her to eat?????

JUST FREAKIN KIDDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There truly is no reason to Celebrate someones birthday with food! I think I may just have myself convinced of this, now to tell the family!!!!

What the hell.....cheater thing?! people kill me.

Okay, people clebrate with food because of the things humans do to stay alive or to perpetuate the human race we can eat. We sleep alone, we make babies with only one other person, but we eat together. You've got a lot of history to fight to get your family to buy the no going out for the Bdays.

Good luck with that.

oh god, what do you need those things for JC???

And btw, why are you not sleeping? Are you nervous? What is going on with you? You NEED to get some sleep. That is NOT good for you and you are going to get worn down and get sick. I am being the motherly figure right now, and I want you to do something about this situation before you hurt yourself!!!!

oh, and J, I WILL be putting down my foot about eating out for birthdays. It is NOT going to be happening anymore. Noone else in my family needs to shove endless amounts of shit in their mouths any more than I do. Thats the way I see eating out now, is a bunch of people shoving endless amounts of shit into their bodies. It is really rather gross!!!! I mean, just how freakin big can some peoples stomaches be???? I know, I know, I used to be one of those people, but shit, it is just disgusting to me!!!! Just like the other night when we went out to eat with friends, the sheer AMOUNT of food that the guy could put away was just about mind boggling to me at this point.

Oh, I think now I need to go to bed!!! I am off rambling about the dumbest stuff!!!

JC I see you are still online. Don't tell me you have been up all night. Try some benedryl...always worked for me.

Juli maybe you didn't know because I look like I am 12 lol. A lot of people are shocked to find out that I have two kids. My daughter is 6 and my son is 4. Not that I am partial or anything but they are the greatest kids in the world. I managed to get knocked up at the worst possible time in my life but having my daughter probably saved me from the crappy road I was heading down. I was starting to get into drugs, not a lot but it could have gotten way out of control considering my ex best friend/room mate ended up being a cokehead and was referred to by the people in our apartment complex as the 4th floor whore. And I say knocked up since DH and I had only been together for like 5 months. But everything turned out for the better. My daughter is awesome and not to toot my own horn or anything but I think DH and I did pretty well considering we were teenage parents. She is at the top of her class, already passed first grade work in Kindergarten last year, reads at a second/third grade level. Okay enough bragging lol.

D I have difficulty watching people eat now. It is especially difficult in the cafeteria at work. I see mountains of food and I wonder where they put it all. I see my husband eat like 3 huge brats and then put away a half a bag of doritos and I want to puke. It makes me hurt. But even so I still love good food. We don't do out to eat very often at all so birthdays are a special treat. But now it is not a food fest. A birthday meal can last 4 meals for me and I love left overs. I am a terrible cook and not too fond of cooking anyhow so going out to eat is a treat for me not because of the food (though it is a big bonus) but because I don't have to cook, clean, do dishes, hear complaints about how what I made is gross.

Morning All.

JC-is your liquid diet straight espresso? You're killing me.

BG-Sounds like your family is fantastic. I love the kiddies and it's amazing how they really do change our behavior. I don't think I'd be in school right now if it weren't for mine. She inspires me to do great things...like lose weight! I want to play with her now and be around to see her grow old....

D-I'm coming from a place of love, don't become that santamonious used to be person...You know what I'm talking about. Ex smokers who hate all smokers. I think there's a line between overindulgence and celebrating. And certainly someone needs to set a reasonable example about how to deal with food. So, if you're not going to go out for her birthday what are you going to do? Really, I agree a birthday is a time to tell someone that you love the fact that they were born and the fact that they are there enrich your life...it's about appreciating the person.

With that said, I'm glad you're in my life, eventhough it's distant and computer based, you have fantastic impact on me for which I'm happy. If I could I'd thank your mom for having you! Happy birthday!

Okay, about going out to restaurants....hasn't that changed! I used to hit the half priced appetizers and beer from Applebees REGULARLY! Chinese Buffet here I come! The more I could eat and the cheaper it was the happier I was. I had my eating pals too! We talk on the phone now, because they consider me no fun! But whatever....

Now, I try to limit going out to once or twice a month and the new rules are there needs to be a chef in the kitchen and a good wine list! I typically order an appetizer, salad, and a glass of wine which might cost $30 for the meal but I'm still spending less than I used to and the food is so much better tasting!!! I've called up old friends who are more inclined to eat that way too so there's a benefit, touching base with people I missed!

I'm avoiding do real work at this point........

Doesn't that suck!

Good problem to have! Check out your local Bike Shop, if there's a big one like Performance Bikes, you might be able to get shorts there and send back the ones you ordered.

I like your new bike ticker! I need to set some exercise goals. JC what are yours? I'll try to shoot for a tenth of yours! Ha!

      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.
