Football...yuck! I have to hear about "our boys" all year long. DH acts as though he has stock options in the Titans. You would swear that he wore one of those wireless head sets that goes directly to the coaches ear. Of course, the volume must be way down on it because he yells like he is trying to get someone in Egypt to hear him. Can you tell I am NOT looking forward to football season?

PJTP-have you ever slimed so much that you actually wanted to PB? As a banded person, not chewing is not an option. As a banded person with braces, how the hell am I supposed to eat!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?

Obviously I didn't give enough thought to the dynamics of being banded with braces. I am sure that the stress over not having solid food is making it worse. I apologize for complaining.

*Lu, best wishes to your friends! Taking wife out should help her a lot. You and DH are great friends!

Hi to everyone! I was on late last night and it's late afternoon here now and there is NO WAY I can post enough to catch up!

Best wishes to everyone!

PJTP: DD did GREAT at swim class this AM. I think a switch has turned on for her. She couldn't wait to show her instructor what she could do. She actually used her arms and legs when on the noodle and going across the pool too! It was fun to watch.

Had an eye appt today. Yikes! My Rx has changed a bunch and is going to cost me a small fortune from now on. Having the lenses replaced the the pair I already had, I like the frames and saw no reason to change them out. BUT I also now need Rx sunglasses! OUCH!!!

DH went too and now has to have readers. All of them should be back in less than 2 weeks.

DH and I tried the new cajun place for lunch. Very good. Can't wait to go back but it's a little pricey so it won't be often, unfortunately!

Off to the Farmer's Market for some fruit. BBL!

Mmmmmmm - I love mashed potatoes mixed w/ greek yogurt - good Protein and they taste heavenly (if I do yukons - I add lots of garlic, if sweet potatoes - then I add coconut Syrup if I have any left or maple syrup)

How about a soft polenta w/ parmesan and mix the greek yogurt into that (just trying to find things that are not only band/brace friendly but sources of protein too)

well - she's exhausted.

DH just took her shift over - she had texted me earlier that she wants a hot bath and bed.......SO, wine's all mine and i get to play online at night.

house rule - we shut the puters down in the evening "unless" -DH has to work, or he's traveling....:juggle:

I am an idiot.

I had wanted to enter this burger contest last year with this recipe I had developed - but was out of town and missed the deadline - so I was going to enter this year. I actually had developed a couple recipes and (of course waiting till the last minute was working on typing them up all day today - deadline is 12 today)

Unfortunately - that was 12 noon - not midnight like most contests - so I missed the deadline AGAIN!!

Ratso-fratso - kick the wall!!!!!!

Those are great ideas. I haven't had polenta with parm. That sounds really tasty. I am currently slurping on melon "soup". I feel a shopping trip in my near future. :0)

I really envy how you and your DH are there for your friends and vice versa. I know that your friend's DH is going through an awful time, but I also know that having you there to be a shoulder to lean on, or just to put a smile on his face, helps them so much.

      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.
