a space heater??? wow, I am not THAT cold. But I know offices get super cold sometimes. Well, good I am glad I am not the only one. How are you and your family getting along? Has everything calmed down a little? Still thinking of you....

Yeah, if we lived near each other we could conquer the hills. I am going to go up and take pictures of the mountain pass we ride up. I was soooooooooooooooo beautiful last night coming down off the top.....sunset reflecting off the resevoir....it was awesome.....

I can't believe it is already getting dark sooner. It is so irritating. I want the sun to stay up until 11 pm so I can get more riding in.

And, on another note, has anyone felt not as hot this summer? I don't know if it is the weather, or if it not having an extra 100 pounds to pack around, but I am not as hot this summer. Now, I am not saying its not hot, but before, I could hardly stand to be outside and now I am outside and riding a bike. Just wondering if you all feel the same or if it is just me.

Uh-Oh, does that mean you are going to freeze come winter???

I'm only down 45 and can tell a little bit of difference in my heat tolerance but I still get too hot.

      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.
