Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here



Recommended Posts

...More Snack-bowl of cap'n crunch Cereal, pudding snack cup, 14 microwaved pieces of pepperoni, a mini snickers, a handful of jolly ranchers, the top layer of a mini twix, and a square of cherry cobbler.

I always start my day off with good intentions, then it goes down hill.

me too, i'm so good all day long but then between the hours of 9pm to 11pm it all goes downhill. i just eat tons of random little crap. whatever is in my fridge or in my pantry... little bites eaten while standing in front of the fridge...

I was thinking the same thing as ya'll when Kat said her pie hole report was a bad one. WHAAAA??? That and Judy's mention of having some of that Soup At Hand makes me realize that I will never be able to eat like a normal person...

Jane - your parents sound like my parents too. I'm super spoiled and I know no one will ever treat my like my mom and dad do. To them I'm still their little girl. My sisters and I are all super spoiled. Might it be because we're all still single and without kids? Will it change once I have kids? Hope not!

My piehole report for today:

One cup of coffee with sugar and cream

2 Breakfast tacos - flour tortilla stuffed with eggs scrambled with hot dogs, tomatoes, onions and bell peppers.

2 8oz glasses of Water so far...

Tonight we are having a big BBQ here at the office. We're celebrating getting back to normal after IKE! The guys are all smoking meat and BBQ'ing out in the back of the building and when you walk outside it smells so good! I made potato salad, baked Beans and three big huge peach cobblers.

Okay, now I'm off to go cut up some onions. Glad I brought my mandollin with me!

LOL Haydee @ random posts!

I am daddy's little girl, despite being married (he gives Russ hell all the time about treating me right), and I expect no change when I have my baby! Dad will always be my hero.

My mom is my best friend, it's just that.. we're so alike, and both stubborn and I guess bitchy for lack of a better word. So when we're getting along, it's great.. but if we have any sort of conflict (like what is going on with my sister), neither of us back down, so we just have to keep our thoughts seperate. The rest of the family enjoys watching us fight since we're both so catty. And she's a negative person, which she admittedly gets from her mom, and I have to make a big effort not to be like that.. She can't just be happy for you, it's "That's good, BUT..." there's always a but.

I had the choco milk this morning, I make it with 2% milk and the hershey's Syrup that is lower in calorie and they add Calcium & Vitamins.< /p>

For lunch we went to my favorite deli, which is no longer my fav deli.. 2 visits to them in the past month, in a row where service & food were bad. I had cup of broccoli & cheese Soup that was soooo watered down, and some of Russell's chips..oh and some mini cornbread muffins...and about 4oz of Dr. Pepper.

I ate 2 mini packs of starbursts (4 pieces total), and have had 4 bottles of Water so far.. 16oz ones. I am definitely getting my water in these days.

About to take my prenatal vitamin.. tonight is Crack Barrell night. I have been able to stay 'good' when we go there, so not worried about my bad nibbling habits tonight. We don't get home from bowling & CB, and then Tennessee scratch-off run till about midnight..so then I go straight to bed.

Did I tell you guys I'm going to Tunica this weekend with my mom? :D

Russell wanted to invite his brother down, and my dad is going out of town somewhere to play in the WPT stuff.. so she invited me. I went through my coupons, I have about $1,200 in free-play coupons, so I have plenty of money to go! Then ironically one of the casinos called me yesterday and invited me to a VIP Oktoberfest dinner for this Friday and they're doing drawings for $60k in cash prizes. My mom said she's in, so I signed up for it. Woohoo. Going to be a nice fun relaxing weekend.. room service, payperview, and slots!

yes, i'm jealous! Haven't been to the casino in awhile. But even when we do it's no where near the caliber of gambling that ya'll do. We each take about $50 bucks and we spend our time playing the quarter slots and gossiping about the girls that didn't go... We're so bad...

This weekend I have lots going on too. I've got to get my house straightened up, get my garage cleaned out. And sunday we're having girls night out. We're going to a concert. A very famous mexican singer, Luis Miguel. He's one of those sexy romantic singers that guys hate so it's all girls. I'm so excited, I haven't seen him live in years...

Laura~ Careful at the casino! That is the hardest place for me as a non smoker. I quit 1 year, 3 months and 4 days ago. On Monday we were in there for a couple hours for the football game and after an hour I get really weak! I swear, I walk in and think, "man it stinks in here...hope my purse does not smell like this when I leave." Then an hour or so later I think, "man, I wish I could smoke!" The constant smell wears me down.

I did not go to ANY smoking places for a couple of months after I quit! And I did not drink either. I remember the first time after sex too. I was thinking, man, I want a ciggy so bad (you all know why:biggrin::D). That was super hard!

Good luck and bring mints!

I already thought about that, I'm going to bring one of those medical masks.. There's actually a lot of people at the Tunica casinos that wear them.. I've never really been sure why, always thought it had to do with the mosquitos.. but anyway, I'll wear one and blend right in. Lots of gum, and jolly ranchers!

Yup Terry, that's why I'm excited to be going, and not spending any money! Getting my last thrills in while I can.

Oh and I guess I could mention, I've been going out on some of the smoke breaks and was in the CEO's office while they had a meeting & smoked today. Yesterday I avoided smoke, today I didn't and.. still have not wanted one. Russell is horrible, he hates smoking now (mmhm), so he throws a big hissy.. I guess it's his allergies. Doesn't bother me or make me crave.. still taking the mask to Tunica just in case!

I guess I thought my pie hole report was not so great, because most of the day was processed food! Plus I worked so hard eating those danged pinon nuts it felt like I ate all day long!!! Hard little suckers to crack and shell!!!

Today, thus far I have had

B-slice of Peanut Butter wheat toast for breakfast

L--Junior bacon cheeseburger from Wendy's with half the bun tossed--ate all but about 3 bites.

S--3 cheese curds

D--is going to be salad....we are going to my MIL, and she is making dumplings, and salad and cobbler-probably peach. I am going to eat salad so I can have some cobbler, much rather it than the dumplings!!!

Telling all of you keeps me in watch though, or I would have ate more cheese curds when Manda offered them!!!

She said her Dad has been in bed sick since last Friday, with terrible stomach cramps, and nausea, he refuses to see a Dr. I am not surprised by it, but I hate that it is upsetting to his kids. Would not surprise me for it to be his liver failing, he has drank for years.

Manda was headed to a meeting at her sisters school with an assistant dean of students. Her sister transferred over last week, come to find out Manda paid for her lab fees etc. because her Dad couldn't afford it (nother reason to dislike him!), so she was told to come back into the office in a couple of days and they would have her locker assignment. When she showed up here last night, she was lugging a full backpack, and carrying 2 books. They told her they did not have any lockers available, there are several awaiting repair. So Courtney and I weighed the backpack and her books. When I got on the scale without them and then with them, there was a 38 pound difference! Seriously!

So Manda called to make an appointment to discuss this with them, if they had no room for extra students, why did they allow her to transfer in, and what are they going to do about her having to lug that weight around all day. Manda said she is not going to be confrontational, but instead ask which office would be the best for her to stow her things in in lieu of a locker until they get one fixed for her....just not allow them to ignore her or expect her to carry it everywhere. I am waiting to hear what happen!

Well, I need to put away some of the things I bought in town. Was not crowded, and I am sure glad I got it done and over with!! If I hadn't done it before we leave, I would have had to when we got home Friday, or done it on the weekend, and I HATE going on weekends!!!

We will be leaving after seeing my brother in law at my inlaws tonight. So will catch up when I get back!

Hugs!!

Kat

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
