Haha, it's not what you might be thinking. :P I am a visual kind of person. I scan for avatars even before names, and usually recognize a poster for their picture. It is bad enough with those of you who choose anonymity (and I do not blame you). But it seems a number of you ladies have chosen a beautiful tropical scene, with bright sandy beaches, palm trees, so on and so forth. You're straining my poor old eyes, not to mention my memory, trying to keep you all straight. So I have to work a little harder.

That is all. Carry on. Well, don't "carry on". It's Sunday. Behave yourselves. ;-)

I will take dessert over pretty much anything. I guess that's why I needed WLS.

I am all about the dessert too! After my father n law passes, we will be moving to the Las Vegas area. We are looking at Green Valley and Summerlin.

That being said, I also LOVE the beach specifically in Hawaii and would love to go back every few years. Its so darn expensive though and we like to take our granddaughter who loves traveling with us. That makes it even more expensive but we won't go withou her now. LOL

Another punster, eh? I actually intended for "beaches" to be read with sort of a Mexican accent, but hey, a vacation thread is fine with me.

Probably the best vacation Mrs. LittleBill and I ever had was a few days of sailing a small boat in Maine, followed by holing up at a campground for a few more days where no one else was around. We laid about all day long soaking up the quiet and reading books. I won't go into the rest of it. ;-) Suffice to say, it was a great time without the children.

      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.
