Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here



Recommended Posts

I am going to ask my doc to completely unfill me on Monday. I've been a little too tight for months, and now it's extremely too tight to the point of no eating.. I think my stomach would like a breather to be open for a little while.

But, I remember when I was first banded (and the feeling), he put on the smallest band and he said even with no saline it was pretty fitted for me. So I should not be able to eat bread even with it completely open. I AM able to eat salad & meats though (going based off of when I was first banded). I am actually really looking forward to that. Lucky me, I have not been craving any sweets lately. I even had oppertunities and I passed on em?!

But I would really like a nice chef salad that goes down with no sliming.

1st Ultrasound (and appt.) is Sept. 11!

Forearm Blizzard! LOL!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously this unfill has taken a huge toll on me.. I feel like I could actually EAT a big juicy grease laden cheeseburger WITH bun!

I haven't tried................. yet.

Who would of thought a mere .4cc could open me up this much!

I was 180 this morning

:smile2: I could have told you that....

Me, too ........ 2.2 cc is too loose, 2.3 is better, but still too loose....2.6 and I'm sliming and PBing like mad. 2.4cc is probably where I'll end up. So just a 0.2-0.3cc makes all the difference in the world.

Hiya girls!

What a day! I told Michelle earlier, I was just not interested in food, but was not gagging at the thought anymore---wrong!!! I have thrown up 3 times today----not like PB'd thrown up----like I get light headed and heave with nothing in there, and I have a fever. I took some phenergen to stop the nausea, but my head is still throbbing, and I could care less if I ever eat again. Scares the you know what out of me to do that, what if I slip my band, just from a case of a stomach virus???

Ok, it is official, I will try to figure out what to post, and post it on the 'bama thread, about this being a REUNION meet up, and our only exceptions will the be Violets who could not attend last year. Done deal, we will need an EARLY head count....to avoid problems like last year. Thanks for all the input!

Rick's secretary called me and told me I will LOVE Alabama!!! So he is already telling people I am going, does that mean he cannot wait to be rid of me??? Actually she was asking him about what I thought of SA, they are thinking of taking their DD's, and he said we liked it well enough that we were planning to go back, but a baby led us to Alabama instead!!

Now the $100 question is.......which one of you loverly ladies is gonna have a baby next year to make our minds up? Looks like you will NEVER be coming my way!!!! LOL

Company---bbl~

wow it sure is quiet in here.

Went to meet macys teacher. She is such a sweet girl/lady. I say it that way cause she looks so young! Then again, I am getting old, so...

Macy saw her and said, "momma she is SO cute!". lol Anyway, we got to see where macys chair is and where her cubby is. Learn about the bus info and about the cafeteria money stuff. I just learned all kinds of 411 tonight!

Have a great night violets!

Ok, OK.. you talked me into it. I'll have a baby so you all can visit Michigan. After all that lady in Japan, at 61, just gave birth to her own grandchild. Shouldn't be THAT hard, should it??

Ethan was here all day and we had a great time. He is finally calling me when he wants something. I'm MomMom to him. The Bobster is Poppa. He always said it before when asked who we were, but today for the first time he yelled it out when he wanted me with him. I love it!!

I have tomorrow morning to get the house cleaned for the choir party on Saturday. Ethan comes from 3-5 so I'll do some more cleaning after he leaves!! Then we have to go out and get the brats, burgers and hot dogs for the party. It doesn't start til 6, so I have time in the morning to get everything ready. uh oh.. just looked at the weather report and it says thunderstorms on Saturday. I already told the choir if it rained, then we would have to cancel it. Dang...!!! I'm not going to get the meat til Saturday morning now. Don't want all that stuff with nobody to eat it!!

Kat.. hope you're feeling better and I totally agree with the email you sent about the trip.

Tracy...School doesn't start here for a couple of weeks yet, but I remember well when the munchkins came and met me and scoped out the territory at the meet and greet before school started. Such excitement in their eyes! So many tears in their mom's eyes!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh the memories!! Now I just look forward to taking Ethan to school in 3 more years!

I'm headed for bed. Everyone have a great evening. sleep well.

      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.
