So, How did everyone do today? I had only about 800 calories. But I am struggling with my Water. I'm trying to drink it but my body just doesn't want it. I am getting at least 80 ounces, just wish I could get a little more in. It's almost like my body has said enough is enough. Probably because I'm not exercising. That might have something to do with it.

See ya all tomorrow.

Suzie, I did fair.....I am sure I was well above 800 calories, but I always have been. I had Cereal for Breakfast, then part of a burger for lunch, and 2 chicken strips for dinner, with ranch dressing. I had no issue getting my Water in, going up and down the hillside, and shoveling all morning, had me guzzling water. But my scale went up 2 pounds after behaving yesterday!!! I might have to do a Laura and refuse to exercise!!! LOL

Where is everyone????

Good Morning, Violets..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PAMELA!!!:):party::(:Banane20::thumbup:

I'm up early again today. Flute rehearsal at 9 and then hope to get in the pool before Ethan arrives at 1. Then he's here til 10 tonight. :lol: Hopefully we'll be outside most of the afternoon playing in the backyard.

TracyinKS... continued prayers for your Mom and your family today.

Suzie.. I get my 8 glasses of Water in a day and that's about it. I know 80 oz would be way too much for me!!

My Wiifit is supposed to arrive today. Then that will be one added piece of exercise equipment to add to my routine. Which by the way, hasn't been much of a routine lately!! The Bobster's bike is in the repair shop, but is supposed to be back today so we can resume our riding in the evenings.

Gotta go get some breakfast and get ready for rehearsal.

Everyone have a great day!!

Good Morning all! Thanks for the prayers.. She keeps calling it surgery... so my guess is that she has already had biopsies.. I don't know.. I know that I will be asking the surgeon some questions. They moved it up to 1:30p.m. so I won't be at work very long this morning.

I must be strong for her.... I keep asking her questions and she jsut says "I don't know the answer to that"

The only thing I ate yesterday was a blizzard..... nothing else would even try to go down.. (stress, emotions) I went to bed at 6:30 pm because my eyes hurt so bad..... so I was up taking a shower at 2am.....

Have a great day.. and I will let you all know what happens.

Good Morning, Vi's~~

Happy Birthday, PamELa! :thumbup: :):(:lol: or should I say, "Buon Compleanno!" Waking up in Italy on your birthday... bliss!!

((TracyKS))

I know I had more than 800 cals yesterday... but I also had a very odd occurrence... I PB'd -- twice! -- @ dinner!! That hasn't happened to me in MONTHS... usually I can just eat whatever, just slowly... so that was a rude awakening that yes, indeed, there is in fact a band in there!

Back to basics today... except I still have that darn free Coldstone coupon... ack!... well, I *intend* to be "good" today... am drinking my h20 as I type...

Make it a great one, Vi's!

Working on my 3rd 20 ounce bottle of Water. Just remember that I have been up since 4:30am. So that's four hours it took me to do that. I'll be slowing down here pretty soon with the drinking. I have a shift at the hospital and don't want to be running to the little girls room all night.

Everyone have a great day.

TracyK - when is hubby scheduled to start at his new job?? It must be so exciting for him!

Suzie - how'r your toes and your knee doing?? Any word on your back?

I'm having a cup of coffee right now but I'm fixin to get up and get my Water. I didn't do so good on water yesterday. I think I only had one liter...

I just got an email saying that sugar free gum can kill a dog... Have ya'll ever heard of that?? I don't chew sugar free but if you do keep it in the house then be careful with your doggies.

Oh, I'm having such a hard time with my new email. I'm trying to export all my contacts from my other two email addresses and it's just not working... Anyone know an easy way to get this done??

Haydee, Toes are doing better. Still black and blue and am surprized that after 2 weeks they are still colored. One thing I have to remeber not to do is bend the toes. I keep forgetting and it jolts me. Duh. Pain in the knee has receded some. I can actually sit for more than 5 minutes without it hurting. So it looks like the nerves are getting better. Back is fine, just being very cautious with what I do. Hubby is still running the vaccum and lifting the laundry for me. He's a keeper. Over all I'm improving. Right now I look at all of this as a nuicense (sp?). I just don't have time in my life for this to have happened. Got a full schedule.

Haydee-he starts his new job on the 21st (pending a clear background check & drug test, which will not be a problem). He is SO happy. I really should say WE are so happy. This is just HUGE for us! :thumbup:

How are you?

Me & Macy are leaving in a few minutes for the library for Preschool Reading Time :(

      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.
