Lol! If you saw the Gelato place near me you would understand, this place is insane and dangerous and I don’t have a big sweet tooth!

Chocolate trigger warning!

Sounds like a cool new thing to do, crafty but neat, bet it turned out well!
I remember Orchids and Dragons saying Cheezits were her Bug-a-boo, well Tomkitten has a box of them, White Cheddar, I used to like cheese things. How could 2 little crackers hurt me? So I hollered until he brought me two, I chomped and chomped, WTF, they tasted about as good as styrofoam, spit them into a tissue and that was it!
So I guess my #24 effort is I tried being sinful, couldn't even succeed at that!

Day 24 - treat yourself

Not sure how I can treat myself today, as treats up to now have largely been comprised of food and that pattern must and is changing. Perhaps I'll do a bit of a mini spa day... face mask, shaving my legs, etc.

B-side: not sure honestly. I haven't tried Halo top yet, and I'm not really wanting regular ice cream either.

B-side from yesterday - I have both dogs and cats. Once upon a time, I thought I was a cat person but nowadays, I'm a dog person. Also, horses...always loved horses. I'm generally patient but do have my impatient moments. I'd have to say Star Wars over Star Trek.

24. 19 push-ups completed. I'm going out to dinner tonight with friends, so that's a treat. I suspect I'm going to stop at the local nursery this afternoon after my eye dr. appointment so if I shop, that will be my real treat!

B-side - I haven't tried the new ice creams. I do have a love of Haagen Daaz and Ben & Jerry's - I don't remember the last time I had any ice cream - might even have been last Summer. I'm sure I'll have a cone at some point this Summer - how can I not? I live on Cape Cod and they are so good after a day at the beach.

I haven’t had any ice cream since surgery, it isn’t really one of the foods I crave

Me neither. I'd rather have a steak.

Last thing I had in the ice cream family-' Lime Sherbert. I bet now I would taste the butterfat in regular ice creams. Besides most everything in that aisle at store- Chocolate- been allergic to chocolate for 44 years- so no Siren Song for ME!🍦

🙌 Amazing rockstars 🙌

I will only eat gelato on vacay if i want to test my boundaries again 😂

But ive had a lot of Halo Top post surgery (testing all the flavors 😂) and i must say they have a good scam going 😂😂 no way those flavors are low calorie. But ive converted a few people to eat this not regular hehehe

Good afternoon !!!

Epic B-Side Questions:

Cat or Dog person?

Patient or inpatient?

Star Wars or Star Trek?

I like these!

Both (but probably lean more towards cats)

Impatient!

Star Wars

Hey everyone!!!

B-Side Question:

Yay or Nay

Traditional icecream or the new low sugar/fat higher Protein Subs?

Haagen Daz vs Halo Top...

Big frigging NAY! I find these subs sooooooo gross, and as a big former ice-cream person I have tried them all. Real deal all the way.

I could live on bread, potatoes and popcorn. I honestly don’t think I will ever eat popcorn again, it is my nemesis.

I saw a bumper sticker recently
" Don't reward yourself with. Food
You are not a dog who learned a New Trick! "
But we were stuck in Columbus afternoon traffic, wasn't going to walk on I-71 and ask where they got it! All I remember. it was a Chevy Cruze in Silver. They used to make them in Lordstown OH.

25. Got the pushups done. Start grooming? Well, I wish I had a horse and I would happily groom it. But, I have had a shower this morning and put on new smaller clothes to wear to the gym! Yay! I do plan to do my weekend facial routine one of these days. I am so happy to have sunny warmer weather to play in and around my house this weekend. Love the lilacs blooming in my yard and having the windows open. I have plants to pot, a yard to mow, and a house to clean so I suppose you could say that this is an inner and outer grooming weekend. :)

Day 25 - Grooming. Just my usual basics today.

I have noticed that I've been losing a bit of hair this past week, but I'm trying not to get too freaked out by it. I know that in the past when I've had big medical procedures done I've had a bit of Hair loss immediately after, and I know it's too soon for it to be malabsorption related. Still, it is a bit jarring.

I’m all groomed up.

Went shopping, clothes sizing is so weird, I’m all over the map. I bought 2 pair of shorts from the same store in different sizes & colors. I planned on returning the pair that didn’t fit. They both fit, makes no sense but ok. They are chino shorts with a real waist, zipper etc, no elastic involved.

Went to the gym this morning, it was more crowded than I expected for a holiday weekend. Going out tonight, followed by a long walk if it doesn’t rain.

I hope everyone is having a chill weekend.

      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.
