Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here



Recommended Posts

Kat-I got the box today! I am able to keep 5 shirts (4 for me and one for my mom) and both pairs of pants fit like a charm! Thank you SO much!! 3 of the 4 shirts that fit are long sleeved or 3/4 sleeves but they are thin so I may be able to wear them a time or 2 before it gets too hot. I really appreciate it! Oh, and macy says thanks for the eggs!

TracyKS?!?-yoooohoooo where are you?!

Pamela-dh must be loosening up. He is actually sitting on the floor next to me with a road atlas looking to see how long of a road trip Palm Springs would be!! Maybe he is crossing over to the violet side? LOL

Violets-have a great evening....I gotta run get macy settled in for a quiet evening!

Ham and Beans for dinner tonight. Have to eat early. I have to fast all night so I can give blood tomorrow. They won't redo my cholesterol pill till they check my level. Looking forward to that one.

Hubby and I are off to go spend a few hours at the new Bass Pro shop tomorrow. This thing is huge. Hope we don't get lost. We just want to go see what the big draw is.

Have a great evening.

Good Evening, Violets..

What a day!! We went to the bank to sign all the papers... that took awhile cause one of our friends works there and she just got back from an all inclusive vacation and she had pictures to share with us. Then we headed to the car dealership and they were really busy, but we got in , got all the stuff signed there and then it took almost 40 minutes for the salesman to show us everything on the car. Between Onstar and XM and all the bells and whistles, I think I'll just ride in the car instead of drive it for awhile. The Bobster took it to church this evening and he was getting 30 mpg, so that's a big plus!

When I got home I had to go out again and look for a wallpaper border for the top edge of the room. I didn't find anything I liked so will have to check a couple more places tomorrow. I got the front door painted front and back and the laundry room door and trimwork painted. It took 4 :) coats to paint the front of the entrance door!! Why is it dark colors take more coats than light colors????? I just have two shelves to paint the trim color and then I'm ready to use the roller and the main color. I hope to get two walls completely done tomorrow. Then Ethan comes Wednesday and Thursday, but not on Friday so my goal is to have it finished by the weekend. We don't have anything scheduled for Saturday so I can work all day then too. I have to find a valance for the windows in the room. The one I have now doesn't match the new paint.

Suzie.. your Royals beat MY Tigers!! :smile: Oh well, there's always next time!

Going to go watch a little tv while the paint dries. Then I'll take the tape off and get things ready for tomorrow. Will check in before I head to bed!

Tracy---glad some of them could work....if you want to bring the rest and let everyone sort through them in May, you can....if you want to clear them out before then....I understand!! Just do NOT send them back to me!!! LOL!

Pamela----you may end up with more Violets than you know what to do with!!!

Manda and I are talking about a Disneyland trip at some point this summer, then off to the beach---Kinsey is more interested in the beach than she is Disneyland....of course she knows what playing in the sand is....she has nothing to compare to Disneyland!!! We just have to figure time and $$$....always the evil $$$ rearing its ugly head isn't it???

If we had all been born rich instead of so doggone beautiful, we could just take Violet trips all the time!!!

Well off to finish dinner, Rick is on his way home. I actually felt crummy earlier, and made myself get up and clean up the house--I feel better. Thinking maybe moving helps!!! What a concept!

Tracy - i'm actually about to die - my stomach is a mess and my back hurts so bad I can't stand it, but I can sit home and go crazy or take charge of what i need to do...

So, I choose take charge - plus my car needs help and I'm delivering on Sat night, so I have to get it fixed before then.

Is it May yet? lol

      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.
