Sometimes I don't even go to bed until 3 or 4 AM. What time do you go to bed?

Usually 9 PM, but I've been known to be knocked out by 7PM... LOL

Does this work with Brownie Batter too? Damn I missed the boat on that one...damn surgeon actually gave me rules to follow.

Good thing I didn't think of that while on liquids. But btw I was watching a show last night on weight loss and the chick really did mix the batter and just eat it like that... raw eggs and all lol

Nsv warning!

my sis said I'm too thin...

Good luck with the fill and congrats on the NSV!

Okay, I need your help. You guys are always so full of widsom and advice so I'm hoping you can help.

First of all, I'm a night person. I get more done at night and would rather work that way; however, I start nursing school in two weeks and have to be up before 5 a.m. to get to clinicals several times a week. During the holidays I got totally out of whack staying up late and then sleeping in.

My plan was to get back on track when my kids went back to school. So I thought I'd get up at 6 a.m. this week and then next week go to 5 a.m. to try to ease into it. It's not working!!! I haven't been able to sleep the last two nights. I was really tired last night since getting up early, but couldn't sleep. I tried one Tylenol PM and I slept worse and didn't feel rested at all. :wub:

So who has an old family remedy or advice on how to switch back and get back into the swing of things. I feel terrrible today and have no energy. My head is killing me. I have tons of stuff to do, but I'm dragging! Thanks for your input!!

Bea- Margarita. That would be my solution! JK but if you want and old family remedy... I think my grandma got sauced on Brandy before bed lol

Dang this threads hard to keep up with. I dunno how I am gonna continue to work 50 hours a week and keep up with this thread lol

Ugh, I realized I am starting up again on Monday. However, my second class doesn't start until February 9 and will be a 3-hour, one-night-a-week, 12-week course. Those Wednesdays will be looooong days!

ok same again - i try to make it a rule not to eat after diner which is around 6pm.

i'm typically hungry during the day & after workouts......not so much a night eater like DH is .... he likes his Snacks at nite.

I'm so envious of people who get up early. It just seems more in tune with what we were supposed to do, I've just never been able to do it. Well...guess I better learn PDQ!

LOL! Girl, I've already thought of that, but unfortunately it's not conducive to weight loss. :wub: I think I will have a glass of wine tonight though, just to relax a little. Maybe a glass of wine, a cup of sleepy time, one Tylenol PM, a run, and a warm shower. LOL!

I know what you mean. Tuesdays are going to be 16 hour days for me this semester! :tt1:

Thanks for all the advice! It's probably just going to have to work itself out. I have two weeks before it actually counts so until then, I'll just suffer through.

I am not very hungry during the day, it's nighttime eating for me. Have always been that way.

Me too Donna...I do great during the day. It's at night and the weekends that I have issues. I need to keep myself busier and I wouldn't have that problem.

I learned the hard way... Have the glass of wine AFTER the run... My coordination sucks.

      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.
