Happy Halloween ????????



Recommended Posts

Best of luck to all my WLS cyber friends.

I'm a bit frightful of all the candy surrounding me...going out for fresh fish dinner instead.

Hoping we all do well with our tricks...and our treats!

Happy Halloween! Boooooo-oooooooh!

I'm home alone tonight half-watching a marathon of episodes from the old Alfred Hitchcock TV series. Good stuff that holds up well these decades later.

This apartment has been home for eons upon eons ("Never give up a phenomenal deal in Manhattan" is a Constitutional amendment). The first two years here, I bought several bags of candy.* No one ever knocked. The third year I bought more,* but still no trick-or-treaters. Never bought candy again. The reason is that by then, kids in my neighborhood (and others) had stopped going door to door in favor of hitting the stores and restaurants on the avenues, where they do quite well.

* only candy that I didn't like

If you want to do something fun on Halloween Laurie, go to Lincoln Center. I was there for a concert in the afternoon and the plaza was teeming with kids and babies in costume. Watching them running around the old folks with canes and walkers was a bit scary but they were still cute as all getout.

      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.
