LOL, so true... but I have a hard time believing that my muscle gain is in direct proportion to my fat loss. :seeya: Tell me it CAN happen before I cry... :seeya:

Hey everyone!! PJTP from my hotel room in Mexicali, Mexico. If you want all the details of how things are going, check out my thread in the sleeve forum.

I wanted to stop in and say hi real quick, and thank all of you that have sent me well wishes via pm, Facebook, email, etc. It is much appreciated.

Now, I am exhausted and need a nap before dinner. Oh, and I have to ice my broken toe. Yes, I fell when I got up this morning and broke my second toe on my left foot. No bad omens, please!!

I'm right there with ya on that one...:smile2: Now heading for the BL thread to vent...

What's the BL thread?

i think you did the right thing & i agree about the store.

i was at my grocery store last wk, put my purse on the ledge next to the CC machine and there was $40 - 2 twenties.

i handed it to the cashier and she looked at me like i had 2 heads. i told her it was likely the previous customers and she should set it aside for them......just heard crickets. who knows what she did w/it.

It's frightening how clueless people are now. I swear sometimes i can see the back of people's heads through their eyes at times!!! :)

snt - a 2.3cc fill seems pretty aggressive. i never got more than 1cc at a time, and lately it's as little as .2. you also sound pretty sensitive to fills.

Thanks. I couldn't keep down liquids this morning so I called the surgeon's office. They had me come in and he took out 1 cc. He's having me come back in 2 weeks and "if I haven't lost anything, he'll put more in." I thought, "yeah, we'll see, bucko." I'd rather be fat than hurt like I was this morning. I'm not about about an all-liquid/bulimic diet, tyvm.

I dated a guy who kept a list of his money in serial number in a spreadsheet. Each morning, he'd make a list. That was CPA in VA that I left to come to TX. Best. Move. Ever.

OK seriously....I am the biggest Excel lover ever but keying currency into a spreadsheet is beyond OCD!!!

ok - i'm going to do the tank test for body fat next wk. has anyone else done this ? it's personal issue of mine and my dr said it was the only true test.....and to shut me up i think on monday about me complaining about a small weight gain, he says i'm dropping body fat - but i want the G2 on it all and see what the tank shows vs what the scales at the dr's or the pincher thing at the gym says. ok off rant.

speaking of OCD!!!

plain - cooper clinic @ craig ranch (mckinney, tx).

i'm also having a bone density test as well (next fri), was quoted $238 for both. body fat test is $110 - thought it would be more.

      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.
