Rave.. that made me laugh



Recommended Posts

I went to go buy a new foam roller and asked the salesperson what the difference and need is between the longer and shorter one and which should I get. She said, and I quote "well you are pretty petite in size so the shorter should be just fine". I am 5'5 so she couldn't be talking about my height! I was so stoked I actually laughed out loud. Me!!! Petite!!! Finally.

What is a "foam roller?"

look in Amazon. You roll on them to loosen your muscles. The harder plastic ones you use like a rolling pin. Great before a run

I got this one and it is helping. I was all set to go for a run to see if rollering before the run would help and we are having storms for the next few days. post-286600-14765811025361_thumb.jpg

And just like that someone can say something to burst the bubble. The new receptionist at the naturalist I go to for B12 and Vitamin shots each week asked me what I typically get. I told her a higher dose b12 because of weight loss surgery. She said "good for you. Taking that first step! When is your surgery ?" I was like ummm 7 months ago? And she said oh. Ok. Please have a seat. Hahahahaha. I don't know what she was expecting. I am 5'5 and weigh now 153 pounds.

      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.
