Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here



Recommended Posts

Thanks, do you buy these at Big 5 kind of stores? Any athletic store? I think I'll get one and get another cardio workout during my soaps! I wish LBT burned calories:rolleyes:

I remember a "tip" I once read that made good sense to me...maybe it was here on LBT. You make a deal with yourself something like, "No LBT until I do 30 minutes on the <insert torture device here>." A reward for your hard work. Work, then play. In YOUR case, you could say no more "O"s until I do 30 minutes on the...." That'll get your butt motivated!!

I got mine at Dick's Sporting Goods. Walmart carries them, but I don't think they are as good qualitywise.

And I DO get exercise from LBT. I sit down and get out of this chair at least 100 times a day!

Pam have you never seen Fried Green Tomatoes? Shame on you if you haven't (and I command you to go get it!), if you have..remember when Evelyn got the trampoline? I always think of that when people mention trampoline exercises.

DH is worried, sayin he gonna come home and take me to the clinic. I told him I was going to go, but 1. I can't drive in this state 2. I am in tears just thinking about how horrible the wait will be.. so he insists on comin home early to take me. And so I called all the clinics, no one is takin appt's today because they are 'so backed up'. On a good day, it takes at least 3 hours.. I just can't do it. I told him to bring me home ice cream and I'm going to continue to ride it out. My fever is finally breaking (first time in days!) tylenol some reason hasn't been workin till now. I'm sweating and burning up and it's 65 in the house. I've got chicken Soup cooking right now, I ran out of chicken & stars last week (doh).. so I'm making homemade. I threw it all in the pot and letting it do its thing. I still haven't done my homework, and since we have a week to do homework, no late assignments are acceptable. It's due tomorrow, so if I don't manage to get to it today, fingers crossed I feel better tomorrow.

Jen I got the coat today, thank you so much! I haven't tried it on (as I mentioned, I'm really hot right now!!). It's very nice, but did I mention I have 3 long-haired white cats? Hah hah, I had a coat similar to this one, was my fav. coat. It currently is on the floor in my office at work just disgustingly covered in cat hair. I try my best, but black doesn't work in my house.. especially black wool or black velvet.

Oh and my scale said 241lb today, so that is the upside to being sick. But I am not updating my ticker, cause as soon as I can taste food again I'm going to gorge :smile:

Wow! I was nervous there for a minute! That was a very "loaded" question ("What do you do on the tramp?") and you just never know how Judy will answer things! :smile:

Laura, I seriously doubt there is much they can do for you at the doctors office.... you have the flu. It's a virus and they can't give you any kind of pill for that! Just call and ask what you should be taking. Try some Thera-flu tea? Hot tea with honey and lemon? chicken Soup is a good bet. Just lots and lots of fluids, ok? It will help to keep that gunk flowing out of your head and chest. Mucinex is an expectorant...it loosens the congestion in your chest, that's all. You need a decongestant for your head and Tylenol for your aches and pains...or children's Motrin would be even better. Oh, and Chloroseptic for your sore throat.

      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.
