Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here



Recommended Posts

Just a quick pop in on my way to see the tax man! Won't be as good as usualy, we cashed out some things with seeing the way the economy was going, but we always over pay, so it shouldn't hurt too bad.

Pamela--I have had multiple knee surgeries, and in my case the arthroscopic surgeries, have been an improvement over the pain I was in going in. I would have it done again before I would do the PT, and the shots.....just my own experience.

Jenn--hang tough, get through the funeral, and you can all start healing.

TracyK---way to go girl, I am soooo proud of you!!!

Will catch the rest of you when I get back, if I don't go I am going to be late.

HUGS~~

Morning girls! So glad it's Wednesday. I need to start getting my house together tonight. I'm having a garage sale this Saturday so I've got stuff and boxes everywhere! I want my house back!!

So I'm giving up sugar for lent. I am so seriously addicted to sugar. I can't control myself with it and I know that that is what is stalling my weight loss. So this is a perfect time for me to do this.

Just had breakfast... two slices of turkey lunchmeat with six whole wheat crackers and one package of the laughing cow cheese. The light version. I'm full and hope to stay full until at least 3pm.

Gotta go, just checked the time, mass starts at 12:10... i'm gonna be late......

Just checking in to make sure all is well----with the current exception of Tracy's ordeal with reheated casserole, everyone seemed pretty calm while I was away.

Went and got the taxes done (was about what I expected--time to shop!!!), then hit Walmart, and bought groceries, then on to GNC for some Pomegranite capsules for my Dad. Come home and found 2 things I missed getting so now I am off to Safeway. Going to run an errand for my neighbor who looks like she will be going back to the hospital---while I am out....will be back later!!

Hugs!

Kat-I did not think Safeway existed anymore!

Tracy-I can not eat tater tots in any fashion. Instant PB! Thank goodness :eek:

Jenn-love the tat!

Laura-Thanks for calling me your hero! Now I have alot to live up to :eek:

Judy-That thing looks like WORK to me! lol

Terri-so sorry about your mom. I know that just getting her out of the hospital will be a big help to her mental state!

Michelle-I bet you are SO excited, I would be :)

Pam-hope the knee gets better soon....poor thing!

Haydee-love the avatar and GOOD JOB on the eating today!

Yep Safeway is still all over NM....and parts of CO that I know of, not sure about anywhere else!!! They still have their own brand name of items so I figure they must be going strong still. I just to the majority of my shopping in Farmington where it is cheaper!

Well you girls can call me stupid (for doing it), or you can consider me loving (for doing it)....but I am making myself crazy!!! I am reheating leftover stew for dinner, so I thought to make it nice for Rick I would make him some bread to have with it. So I blew the dust of the bread machine, and bought a mix. It has 8 minutes left to cook, and the smell....has my jaws cramped from trying to control the drool! I hope he appreciates me! LOL I had not been around fresh baked bread - other than to pass by Subway in the food court! Smells heavenly! I am going to tell myself it would be the worst kind of PB---and do my best to avoid it! Maybe a single slice toasted crispy in the morning! Then I won't feel like I am being punished!!!

Terry--did you get to bring your Mom home? If not demand a different room! Get her some peace! I know it is easier to say that than to actually speak up and do it, believe me! I am non confrontational to the end!

Tomorrow I go for my next blood draw, hope the increase in the hormone has helped, I would really like to look into the pannectomy or TT-----getting VERY impatient~!

OK...off to finish up supper, and stoke the fire, it has not got above freezing today----brrrrrrr. Supposed to be wonderful Fri & Sat!

Will check with y'all this ev'nin'!

Judy that looks cute! Let me know if you feel any burn on it...

Sho nuff do!! Just finished 10 minutes on it and my thighs are screamin'!! Got my heart rate up. I'm lovin' it!! I can watch my Pistons and get a workout at the same time. It's weird not having anything to hang on to, but you get used to it pretty fast. You can go forward and backward on it too!

      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.
