Morning everyone... although probably only Slim awake now.

It's taken a while for my eye to unglue itself and that's with hot compresses to help it. DH finally managed to get some drops into my eye last night, but I swear the 10 days supply is almost gone!

Oh the teenage years:ohmy::wink:...parents of young ones, you have my sympathy. Raging hormones combined with immaturity...yes indeedy!

Heart/Pool Girl - you dissin' my fish???

OK - time to take my crusty eye and see what the day holds; if I go out in public, I'm thinking an eye patch will be de rigeur.

You know it.

Can you get another prescription?

Scares the crap out of me!

Are you talking about a colorful eyepatch, or are you going for the pirate look this morning?

DH's suggestion - a facecloth duct-taped over the eye - I guess that would be the industrial look???:wink:

Pot of coffee number 2 in process. I made a list of everything I need to do this weekend (I love lists)...now, if only i could get off my getting-bigger-by-the-day-ass and DO them. or even a few. ok, do one......

DH and I went apple picking - picked a bushel in about 10 minutes. Have since come home, made an apple pie (naturally), and am sitting reading the Saturday paper with another cup of coffee. Apple picking and pies were not on the list....oh well. There's still this afternoon and this evening.

If Heart/TPG aren't dissin' it, I think I may have to. :eek:

"de rigeur" - nice! It might also be the fashion du jour!! Just had to jump in, haha.

Morning, well, afternoon......

I slept late today too -- 10 ish. I've been waking up by 8 am during the week, guess my body thought it was Saturday, I could sleep in. That or I tried to do too much yesterday.

One week out from surgery and now all that itches are the incision points. Hope that means they are healing. See the surgeon on Monday.

Weighed the laundry basket and found I could carry it -- crap!! Oh well, one load and now it's done.

Have a great weekend!!

OK - Saturday paper is read cover to cover...including the comics. Crossword is done; saving Soduko for later. DH consumed 2 pieces of pie, I ate the cheese I had decorated the plate with!

Happy Birthday SNT!!

Suzy - Don't over exert yourself.

Lu - enjoy your soggy day.

Slim - Stew - a fav winter dish. All those root veggies simmered slowly in a rich broth.....mmmmm.:wink:

Time to get doing something....but what? Some of the hand sewing waiting to be done? Clothes alterations? Changing out the wardrobes - summer to winter? Vacuuming? so many chores, so little interest or inclination....

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
