I hate the cold but am looking forward to Thanksgiving. I have always hated that I became a gluttonous slob every Thanksgiving, but this year I will be the only one at my house not falling into a turkey coma after dinner. Thank you my little band buddy.

I have concluded that I am no longer addicted to cigarettes (almost 1 yr quit!) I am addicted to sugar. In the form of candybars, m&m's and the occasional pint of chunky monkey ice cream.

I'm serious! I sneek it like I used to sneek cigs As if the scale won't know! Well it found out. I've gained three pounds from my last weigh-in on 9/17/07

ARGGGGGGGGG!

It's ok Nikki,

I cheated this halloween too. Why is it the goodies and sweets go down so much easier? But just get back on the bandwangon and you'll do fine...

I've made a new committment to exercise. Day one and I have 40 min in so far. Might do some tonight too. I've only been walking for the past several months, so I'm adding yoga, eliptical, and circuit training. I want to work up to cardio kickboxing class by January. Here we go!

Good for you, Sohpie! I've done the same the last few weeks--added 3 days of Water aerobics to my 3 days of Curves. Don't know if it's helping or not yet but I'm committed! Good luck--sounds like you are going above and beyond, for sure.

      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.
