Snowing in Texas



Recommended Posts

Hmmm. I have always been a cold-shivering person. I still am. I asked for an electric throw for christmas so I can lug it all over the house and stay warm. Our apartments only heat source is the most stupid invention in the world---CEILING HEAT!!! How dumb is that!!!! Its not the most insulated place either but I do try to keep it comfortably warm. We don't get the sticking type of snow very often in the valleys of Oregon either. The mountains always get a lot but its a rare treat and a perfect excuse to stay home when the valley's get snow. Best wishes, Teresa

I'm not sure I could survive the holidays without snow???? HOWEVER... I could manage without the below zero temps... :) We drove around lastnight looking at all of the Christmas lights and all of the snow on the ground really sets the stage!

Now... do I start packing up the tree today???? Hmmm.... maybe I'll actually wait... heck... maybe I'll leave it up all year. :D

Well... in our backyard we have chocolate chunks to go with the banana cones. :) According to our dogs... they are quite edible.

Jack I've been to the nutritionist already and I scheduled to see a pshycologist Jan 4. little worried about that visit,never been to one before. What kind of questions should I expect?

Nutritionist gave me a list off foods to eat now. Is there another diet before surgery?

hahaha, I thought the same thing all day long. The last 3 days the weather has been cloudy, cold - really COLD (high in the mid 30's), even some sleet at times. Gets old fast. I told Mike today that the south has me spoiled, cant take all that cold and wet crap!

      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.
