So some of you have heard me extoll the virtues of one of my favorite pastimes - square dancing. I have been dancing at state conventions(IA MN), a Mayfest festival, and late last month at National - a nearly week long affair.

Well I have overdone it, I had a TKR on my right knee 9 years ago, and it was giving me mega pain. So I made an appt with my ortho to see what was up. Xrays. Exam. Nothing huge - phew! Imflammed bursa. Getting a shot.

The PA giving me my shot, marked the spot for the shot with a small dot.
She came back w syringe loaded and explained it all, said now because you have small legs (she said SMALL LEGS)(OMG) (did she say SMALL LEGS?) you might see a bulge of the Fluid on the side here!!!
I heard nothing after she said small legs...lol

      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.
