BBK, I thought I had read everything, but I guess not. Did you hurt yourself or get sick? I'm sorry I missed the post. I hope your doing better! Your in my prayers.

No, you didn't miss. It was a Facebook carry over. I fell down some stairs at the movies that were ice. I was trying to catch my daughter who also fell. I am not doing well. I tried to make it to the Dr but the roads are just too bad.

Thanks for letting me brag, y'all. I know, aren't those eyes just THE most gorgeous?? She certainly didn't get them from me as I have light brown eyes. DD has eyes that started out grayish-blue when she was younger and are now more of a soft green. Probably more of a true hazel since they change based on her mood and clothes. However, we have a lot of blue eyes in the family, and the dad also has blue, so yay! I love those blue eyes! I call them Mediterranean blue because, if you've ever seen the Mediterranean Sea, it is blue like that.

Sorry to hear that. Is your daughter ok? I just went and joined FB. I am totally lost! lol

She is better than me. Pretty bruised up though.

I think I pinched a nerve in my back.

PJTP: Long story short - my daughter had her surgery today!! She is a new bandster!! I am sitting in her hospital room right now. She is having a lot of shoulder pain but is really being a trooper. I will be spending the night as she does not want me to leave her alone. Even though she is 18 she is still my baby! lol

Bf bought rock band guitar hero for my kid but hasn't stopped playing it all day..he's 33 sad..I just don't get it...

I love RockBand! I don't play it too often though because it's addicting and I'd sit there all day. I'm getting better at the drums and guitar. It drives my wife nuts because I can sing at the expert level and have almost all of my life left at the songs' end - she tries expert and it kicks her off the stage. I catch her practicing all the time - she vows to overcome my scores... :thumbup:

Maybe it was cold. :Yawn:

And thinking they're tiny is not a bad thing. For some it's true. :w00t:

It's true that in the cold (especially cold water) all men ARE created equal... :smile:

**BRAG WARNING**

Another PJTP: My new grandbaby who I will meet next week!!

Update - she is doing well although her pain is pretty bad right now. I am the best nurse ever! I have taken her walking the halls 6 times since she came into her room 5 pm. The pain in her shoulders and diaphram area is getting to her. The nurse just came in and gave her some pain meds. Hopefully she will fall asleep soon! I told her to remember all of this for the first time someone tells her again how she took the easy way out with surgery!

Thanks everyone for all of the good thoughts and wishes! You all ROCK!!

If I remember correctly, she has BCBS like I do, and I too was allowed an overnight stay. Which SHOULD have been nice, but the staff on that floor was rather sucky when I was there.

I look forward to the day I can jump up and down with her. When she gets home, I have something for her that she can use specifically along her journey if she so wishes.

      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.
