Thanksgiving Challenge



Recommended Posts

I'm the type who always worries what happened to the animal. If the cowboy got shot, what happened to the horse.

I think we should all rent the Wizard of Oz and watch it Thanksgiving Day after we eat our dinner! Then we can go to the Chat Room and compare notes.

Never thought about it but this missing the balloon thing Dorothy did probaly tramatized me. It may be the reason everytime I miss the bus I sit at the curb and ball my eyes out for 15 mins till the next bus comes by.

Damn wish they never made that movie LOL

I thought for YEARS that my aunt's house (up here in tornado-free northwest) had the corner torn off by a little tornado. I REALLY remembered this as a TRUE memory! Talk about trauma!

Then my son moved to Kansas and had my only grandson out there! Of all the nerve!

Okay, now I will be thankful...

My family is awesome and they all still speak to me.

We are all healthy and happy.

I have hope that my future will be as blessed as my present and past.

We have all we need and a lot that we don't.

I have this wonderful support group to help keep me sane.

My friends know me and still like me.

My world is full of beauty and blessings. :Bunny

I'm thankful for so much, where do I begin? Here are a few:

  • A wonderful husband and 3 awesome kids!
  • An awesome God who loves me and understands me!
  • My health and the health of my family!
  • A job that I love and a wonderful boss!
  • Although my Dad died this year, I'm thankful God is merciful and took him quickly, not letting him suffer!
  • A roof over my head!
  • Food to eat!
  • Clothes to wear!
  • My band!!

No matter what we've been through this year, we always have so much to be thankful for!

      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.
