Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Hello Hello Hello



Recommended Posts

I can spend HOURS in there. I end up looking at Everything - even crafts that I don't already do. I have been somewhat disciplined in that I have kept my crafting equipment down to only THREE categories. (Well, my husband got stuff to make soap - but that wasn't me...)

I always look longingly at the toll painting stuff, the little ceramic figurines, the candle MAKING stuff (OOOOOOOOO - dangerous!) and several other things. *SIGH*

So many crafts. So little time.

So where is our fair Eileen, today? Check in, Girl!

I'm sorry ladies. I have been so busy at work, imagine work coming before one of my favorite websites....sheeesh :rolleyes:

I love walking into a candle store, the smell is just so relaxing. I have one of those little tea light pot thingys where you put a hunk of wax on the top and the tea light under it melts it. The house smells wonderful !!! I have gingerbread, bananna nut bread, vanilla, orange chocolate and a few other sents. The ceramic pot thingy cost about $5.00 and the wax is $1.00 each. It lasts a very long time too b/c each time you shut the tea light off the wax on top gets hard again. I'll try to find a picture.

Trish... HOME DEPOT ...... oh girl, that place drives me insane, I just can't stand it LOLOL I bet you just go there to look at the men...uh huh. :D

You mean, you actually have to do something at work besides surf LBT?? Wow, bummer. Right now, there isn't much else for me to do, here. It isn't a good thing. Irene is just a smidge ADHD and not having anything to do is the worst kind of punishment. Of course, I AM still getting paid, so I guess there is an up-side.

But it is EXTREMELY ODD to have a zero stress level in a mortgage job. It's usually a heart-attack-a-minute. Everything is on a deadline and people get pretty testy about their home loans. Frankly, I don't know how I have survived as a fat chick in the mortgage industry for 14 yrs. Overstaffing - what a concept.

Anyway, Y'All have a great evening... and if I hear about any buff dudes being attacked by chubby women in Home Depot, I will think of you! lol.

Good Morning,

I figured I'd check in b/4 the day flys by. Trish I bet you could make those pots, one thing is, the special wax they sell smells soooooooooooo good !!! Don't forget to put the hole in the back for the tea light LOLOL !!!

Beanie, you have ADHD? Well howdeee sistah !! My job was supposed to be NOT be stressful but so far in the 7 years I've been here I can't think of a day where this is true. I have work OVERLOAD and people still continue to dump sheeeat on me. The only thing that keeps me here is the friends I've met, the pay is eh okay and the benefits are pretty good.

Okay rant over LOLOL ;-)

Whats shakin with you all this weekend?

I'm gonna relax and try to get rid of this cold.

Well, the hurricane is supposed to swing by. We will see. I expect that we will lay low, since our town is swarming with evacuees and you have to get use a machette to make it into a grocery store or a Walmart.< /p>

I have videos - LOTS of videos. Hubby & I will just snuggle down and watch movies while it rains.

Of course, the poor DH has to hack and chop his way through to buy supplies today.

Did everybody fill up on Gas? Around these parts, they are talking about 4-5 dollars a gallon. God help us all if the refineries are severely damaged by Rita.

Everybody think good thoughts.

:]

      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.
