Oh my..... i am a little daft today lol

I was innocently reading thinking we were talking about eating those pop rock candy thingies, i did not realise till much later that there were other uses for them other than putting them in your mouth!

I obviously have a lot to learn regarding candy lol *blush*

@ I'm pretty sure it still involves putting them in your mouth! :D:P;-)

LMBO! This sound like my hubby-literally! I'll have to read this thread to him. Of course I'm sure that will start the whole conversation of whether I ate all of my Protein today & his offering of a high Protein snack :P:D

OMFG

More games not to try at home. (Having watched only a few seconds because the title says it and the guy isn't someone I'd date, I'll leave it to you.)

Omg, I needed the laugh today. If it were BEFORE surgery I probably would have peed my pants.

So, I was reading another thread this morning on alcohol - a charming topic that has since delightfully devolved into communion wine in dixie cups - when someone brought up drinking coke with pop rocks and I nearly spit my Protein shake all over my computer screen. This is literally the conversation I had with my husband last night:

Hubby: Hey, I found the pop rocks you gave me for Christmas. Can I still cash them in? (22 years of marriage and always looking for new romantic . . . adventures. Look it up.)

Me: No. You know I don’t eat sugar anymore. I’m pretty sure I warned you that you had to use them before I had my surgery in January.

Hubby: Dang. It was a three pack too. Are you sure I can’t cash them in anyway? Just without the pop rocks?

Me: It’s not as much fun without the pop rocks.

Hubby: sad puppy face

Me: Fine. If you can find sugar free pop rocks, we’ll talk.

Hubby: (not even FIVE MINUTES later) Good news! Amazon sells sugar-free pop rocks . . . in a 24 pack!

Don’t worry. I would never subject my delicate pouch to pop rocks, even sugar-free. Poor Hubby got his hopes up for nothing. Stupid Amazon. Stupid pop rocks. Now I want a coke. Or communion wine in a dixie cup. Instead, I’ll drink my old lady juice: Water with added Fiber and Miralax. 125#s down today! I love my pouch!

I love that story! Well told! Good job with the #'s down!

I work for a nation wide oxygen and respiratory company. When I first started we were using battery operated oxygen conserving devices. You can't use petroleum products with oxygen because of the possibility of spontaneous combustion. I was behind one of our customers in Safeway and she quite clearly told the clerk that she needed these items so she could have "a great time at bingo tonight". She was buying C cell batteries and KY jelly (water based lube). The clerk looked horrified!

I guess that is how she puts the big "O" in BINGO.

      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.
