(((((JENN))))) So sorry Sweetie! I know it hurts, while in the very next breath it is a relief knowing she no longer hurts. Hang in there, support your Mom--like I know you will, and watch your kids, this may affect them more than you realize or in ways you don't expect! I had a 7 year old who went for almost 3 days without eating when Grandpa died, and things were so crazy, no one noticed until the 3rd day! Needless to say the Mom of the year award went elsewhere that year! Hope your family pulls together and finds comfort in one another. (((((more hugs)))))

Laura - I hear you on the eating/no smoking thing!! Sorry to tell you, but that kind of behavior got me 60# in the blink of an eye. I was very comfortably at my goal weight (after Atkins)...then quit smoking like i told myself I would. BAM!!! Say hello to 60# and a new high weight. Don't know what to tell you other than what you already know. Sorry!

Hey Girls~~

((Jenn))... purple thoughts & prayers for you, your mom, your gram & family during this time... & hurry -up thoughts for the job!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAURA!! The Bracelet is gorgeous! Glad your feeling better... hope dh is well soon, too!

Judy -- Here in Md we've got "kinklings"... probably the same type item... basically fried dough covered in powdered sugar or glaze... mmmmmmm... glad today is the last day for them!!

Pam -- Warm up the Mouse for me!! Enjoy your trip!!

Terri -- The classes sound cool!

TracyKS -- Good luck w/the boss training!

Kat -- Enjoy the snow! Be careful!

Hi Haydee, Suzie, Janie, TracyK, & everyone else...

Crazy busy this week trying to get ready to go on Fri w/out it seeming like I'm doing anything differently or organizing to go anywhere... NOT an easy task!... This a.m. I did sneak the kids' clothes to pack & hid them in my closet... if either one asks for a particular item that I've taken, I can just magically "find" it & then replace it w/something else on Fri... but if they don't... then I'm ahead of the game! hee hee hee! I enjoy being sneaky!

Of course, I have basically NOTHING to pack for ME! -- Yikes! I am going shopping for capris/tops on Thursday... nothing more motivating than waiting 'til the last minute, huh??

Time to dash... make it a great day, Vi's!

I just had a real estate customer coming in wanting info on flyer costs.. and my mom put a "Birthday Bitch" party hat on me this morning, its all glittery and loud.. I put it on my radio.. and I forgot about it. DOH.

DH went home.. cancelled our dinner reservations. I went and told my co-worker friend that got me sick "Thanks for ruinin my b'day.. you got me sick, so I got him sick! NEXT TIME STAY HOME!!" and she goes "Don't be a birthday bitch.. I'll take you out to dinner!" and I was like "You gonna give me my birthday sex too?" hah.

Since DH had to cancel, it's gonna be ladies night in my fam, and we're goin to.. RED LOBSTER. Num num, I love that place and get to go too few.

      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.
