Nerd Alert:

Today I ordered the complete Twilight Zone series on DVD. Worst part, I already have it on VHS, but don't have a VCR.

I also booked a trip to Phoenix on Memorial Weekend to see Susanne who will be there a month w/ her mom!

Good evening violets!

Tracy-your post made me laugh about the hairy butts...:wink2:

Pamela-did you see who won the veto? (I peeked) :) I could not help myself.

Jane-I am gonna pm you about the hair stuff.

Judy-love the kitchen & chairs. DH loved it too. Very pretty. CUTE little guy too! He looks like a very happy child!

I cancelled my PS appt. too :ohmy:. I just can't do it...money wise, work wise home wise or any other kinda wise. Sounded good. In the grand scheme of things, I guess it just doesn't matter all that much. Maybe one day....until then I'll just live vicariously through Kat & Terri.

Have a good evenig violets.

Suzie, we will be thinking of you!

Wow when it rains it pours! Looks like my PS may be on hold too.

Myhead began throbbing again. The same headache I had prior to my dental surgery. It is always there, just behind the scenes, and sometimes it just hits me, almost makes me sick at my stomach. Rick woke me up because I was moaning. So I went to the Dr. today. Expecting the usual this time of year Dx of allergies. Instead he sent me for my bone scan early. He is concerned the tumor in my mastoid might be causing pressure or growing. It will take a couple of days for the results of course. Rick is freaking out. I am just depressed. I don't want that to be my problem, I don't want it operated on, I don't want my head shaved, I don't want any of it.

I want to go to Texas, I want to have my belly donated to the landfill.

It may be wishful thinking....but the pain is not in the area the tumor is. I know nerves react totally different, but.....I am seriously bumming. I waited a loooooong time for this!

I keep thinking, it is my own fault for being so vain! I had been thinking, my class reunion is this summer (30) but it is the same weekend my friend is getting married! So......what should we do. Maybe sit at home!!! Pathetic!

I am whining. If they do operate on it, they will likely do as before and just shave the lower portion of my head on the side of the tumor.

Keep your fingers crossed and prayers going.

My MIL tells me, "well you probably caught yours sooner than Ron did" Ron is my BIL who died of brain cancer. The woman sure knew how to cheer me up today!!! LOL I think you must store your tact in your jaw bone, and as her teeth have fallen out----it has too!!! Or maybe it is stored in the knee caps, and when they replaced her knees, they took hers!!! LOL

Judy, Ethan is adorable. Looks like he and Kinsey could have a heyday!

Jane---I think your night sounds like a riot!!!

Well....I needed food----so I cooked some stuffed jalapenos!!! They are not too bad for me----and they taste good! I used to put away a dozen I bet---now 2 is my limit. But I enjoy those 2! Going to grill burgers out---fancy feast eh??

I think I heard House comes back on tonight!

Will check in later.......

Up and already have taken my shower. I'm charging my MP3 right now so I have something to listen to. Should have downloaded some new songs. Guess I'll just turn the FM on and listen to the banter.

It's cold and raining here and we have to drive in it. It will take us about 40 minutes to get to the hospital. It's over in Kansas.

Thanks for all your prayers. You guys are the best.

Good Morning, Violets..

I'm getting an early start on a very busy day. Once I leave for my hair appointment, I'll be gone all day with a luncheon and three musical practices. There are days when I wish I could just say NO and be retired, but music is in my blood so I keep on keepin' on.

Kat... so sorry to hear your news. Tons of purple power and prayers are already headed your way.

Suzie...I know you're headed out already, but you know you take our prayers with you also.

Jane... good luck on the weigh in today, but no matter what the scales say, you have done an awesome job on the weight loss!! I have been bouncing around for the last few months too, but from reading the threads, it's perfectly normal. I firmly believe our bodies reach "set points" and we have to do things differently to break through. I haven't stepped up exercise or done anything different and it shows. But at least the numbers are not going up and staying up.

I better get going and get my hair and face done and some Breakfast choked down. Everyone have a good day. Make wise choices and drink that Water. Special hugs for those going through difficult times. :thumbs_up:

      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.
