B-Sides questions:
Do you eat or drink more when you are sick?
I have a Cold? Flu? Mix? Lol
Drink definitely! I love me some flat 7—up when I get sick. I go off coffee too (even though I only drink mostly Decaf these days)

I keep falling behind-- 17- hold myself back because I procrastinate everything!

18- I wanted to write a book...have started and stopped several times (see #17).

b-side ?-- drink more. FEEL BETTER!

B-side - Traditionally, I go for Soup when I'm sick and I crave popsicles then too...so I'm going to have to say fluids. I haven't had to address this post surgery yet.

DAY 18: Idea I'd like to Persue: Becoming a writer. I love to read and would love to write a book about nothing some day!

B-side question: drink more when I'm sick, then lay in the bed miserable all day!

Stalls are the worse... They test your sanity.

Reflux is low-level so not terrible. It is only from Water after all.

Hello hello! I'm doing well, although my weight keeps bouncing back and forth and I'm up today! Oh well, tomorrow is another day.

What am I grateful for today? I leave for a 5 day vacay starting tonight! So happy to be off work! Woo hoot!

It’s a mix depending on type of virus. Sometimes I’m ravenous and other times I can barely keep down small sips. I hope you’re feeling better soon 🥰

19) what I’ve made that I’m most proud of is a relatively happy home.

Honestly, I haven't made progress on the scale....but I'm at one of those weights that is an old set point. So, I'm working to out-stubborn the darn thing. But this week, I noticed my thighs seem to have done a bit of disappearing. I don't think the scale necessarily keeps up with all the rest of the activity going on with my body's changes.

19. I'm with DanaC84. I am proud that I've made my home my home. Also some of my artwork. Oh, and yes, some of my poetry.

19. I'm proud that I've taken a commitment to take care of myself not just physically but mentally and emotionally to. I found a therapist I love and see her once a week. I also go to the post-surgery group at my surgeon's office.

Also, update on my goal for the month. Now that I have the full fitness clearance I'm back on track with three workouts a week. Eventually, I'd like to work myself up to more.

20. One small thing that brings me joy...my dogs who aren't small but they always bring me joy.

B-side: I love the longer days, the warming weather, and seeing the things I've planted appear and be alive.

Yoga is hard to fit in...harder than I thought...but I do make it to the gym at least 6 days a week. On that note, I am going to do wide legged forward fold and maybe some Goddess before I unfold.

Good morning and evening ( [mention=348975]ummyasmin[/mention] & [mention=350877]RoRoKitty[/mention]) beautiful people!!!
How is everyone doing lately?

Awwwww good morning to you too gorgeous (to be fair, it's evening where I'm sitting). Don't you wish we had Star Trek transporters so we could beam over for a visit and a cuppa.

      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.
