Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here



Recommended Posts

Thanks gals for all your good thoughts, I'm home from work, just made a cup of my night time camomile tea - Decaf, going to try to relax and pass out. I am so excited that I WILL BE WORKING. I'm not even going to give not getting it any power.

Tracyks - no... LOL that guy was pretty open... this is just another one ... WTF? Right? why would people get this crazy impression? I did date a married guy who was separated but as soon as Mrs. moved back and they were working it out I bailed. Isn't there a normal one out there for me?

Just had a great post w/ tons of personals and whamo...lost it....gggrrrr!

Gina...glad your back

Househuntress (what is your name)...looking good

TracyK...hope your feeling better. Congrats on being so close to goal.

Kat and Judy...stay warm...your stories make me chilly!

Michelle...OMG...I would be dying w/ that secret. When are you gonna tell 'em? After school? In the morning? At the airport? Does hubby know?

Another day in paradise here. Finally getting my observation (after a brief meltdown yesterday)...glad it will be over soon. Susanne comes in today, and tomorrow we are finally getting the Closet World job done in the garage! Then her parents are here this weekend again. More food, great!

Can we put our Tip of the Day on another thread. There are lots of good information and it would be nice to put it all in one place. That way we can go there and get inspiration when we need it!

Can't wait for May!

Good Morning, Violets..

3 degrees here right now.

Tons of Purple Power headed your way today, Jennifer!!

Today is a lazy day for me. No meetings, no rehearsals and no Ethan. So I'll be doing laundry and cleaning house, but when I want to and if I want a nappie poo.. then I'll do it!

My back is hurting a bit this morning. I did all my exercising yesterday, but didn't go in the hot tub cause the wind chill was -11. The hot tub always relaxes my muscles. HOpefully it won't be as cold tonight and I can get in it again.

Off to fix some Breakfast. Everyone have a good day!

A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though they know you are slightly cracked.

Friends always give their best to you even when that's hard to do

Good friends are fellow travelers on the road of life

These are some quotes that I found and felt that they were written about all of us.

Don't forget that today is CTCD. Good Luck to everyone.

Yesterday Hubby and I were so excited about starting our shift at the hospital. I was getting ready to go to work and had just taken my shower when that phone rang and it was my boss wanting to know if I could cover the evening shift because a girl just called in sick. I was so sad. I was really looking forward to going to the hospital. So off I went to work from 10 to 1. Decided to go to Wally World to do my shopping because they were calling for 3-4 inches of snow this morning. Got home and dropped off the supplies and had enough time to go potty and kiss hubby good by and headed out the door to the next shift. Worked from 3 to 8. We were so busy I didn't get a chance to sit down all day. My ankles were killing me by the time I got home. Today is a Jammy day. Gonna sit and get caught up on all my stuff I have Tivo'd.

Hope everyone has a great day and Good Vibes to Jenn.

Judy, thanks for getting all the tips over on the new thread. I love that I can scroll through and find the one I've been looking for!

Well the liquid diet didn't work so well. I was about ready to gnaw my own arm off yesterday around 6pm. I had coffee, slim fast and Water most of the day. So then for dinner we went to a vietnamese restaurant and I got a bowl of pho ga, which is vietnamese chicken noodle Soup. Ate all of the chicken and broth and left the noodles. I'm gonna try again today to see if I can do the same. liquids all day and then a sensible dinner. Maybe what didn't work was that I didn't get anything substantial in me during the day. Like a creamy soup. I'll do that today and see if it helps.

      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.
