Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here



Recommended Posts

Yes Terry!!

CTCT.. tomorrow is CTCW for me, how bout you?

Today I had yogurt, 1 oatmeal packet, lots of water.. dayquil, Halls cough drop, and Zicam.. yum yum hehe. I'm making something for dinner tonight, not sure what yet.

I'm sick again, it hit me quick. Literally 5 minutes after walking into my house from work yesterday I had sneezing fits, nose was burning like I had an allergy to something. So I took benadryl, couple hours later, throat was burning. Today I wake up, throat is killing me (but not coughing) and nose is still burning and itching.

YEAH!!! Laura...you rock sista! Thanks...now I am officially a shrinkin violet!

TracyKS~ So glad to have you back. You look AMAZING in the pix.

I gotta go start drinking Water. I have to have nearly 32 oz in bladder AND HOLD IT while they do the ultrasound. Yes, it is transvaginal...but I don't care. As long as I get "fixed" soon. I am going on 2 straight months w/ a period. WTF??? I should invest in Tampax, Kotex, and fruit of the Loom stock! I know...TMI...but I can't stand it anymore.

So my big day of reading has turned into tons of running around. First, went to chiropractor, then to post office, then to bank w/ brother (had to wait for him), then to his office to sign some papers, then to CPK for lunch (California pizza Kitchen). Not doing tooo good these days. Gotta get my mojo back. I get a fill next Wed...that should help. Just don't want to go back to bulemia (sp) again. That sucked eggs.

Gonna go read for a bit before my appt!

Thanks again Laura!

I have my before pix (no body has seen them). They are freakin ugly!

Tracy-Love the pics!! You look so happy :thumbup:

Terri-I am still struggling about calling for a fill. I PB'd this morning so I am kind of freaking out at the thought of being tighter. Thanks for the tip about asking for an appt on Thursday. I will make sure I do that.

We need to have a GOMAD (get off my as* day). THAT is my problem!! LOL

I went for my follow up about the boil thing today. The antibiotics are doing really well and the dr said that it looks alot better but if it comes back again he will send me to the hospital so he can "chop it out".:thumbup: I just love my dr. he uses such great terminolagy (sp?). So heres hoping it goes away and stays away otherwise I am hospital bound!

I gotta go get dd. I will be back later...

By the way, i just realized today is my one year Bandiversary!!! GO ME!

I gotta get my pic to Laura--------Rick picked one----lol, I didn't like any of them!!!

Got my torture device adjusted, lasted a couple hours, til I ate. A snack---easy to chew Quaker things Laura mentioned----could not eat with it, so it is hiding in the bathroom again!!!

I found this on a page I was reading earlier----can you imagine if you hit air turbulence---------flop---flop-----flop!!!

"BERLIN - German holidaymakers will be able to indulge their love of naturism

by taking to the skies nude on special flights being launched this year, a travel

company says. "In the former East Germany, naturist holidays were a much-loved

way of spending the best weeks of the year," said the founder of OssiUrlaub.de,

Enrico Hess. "We want to make that freedom possible above the clouds too."

The flights are aimed specifically at former East Germans, nicknamed "Ossis"

in German, who feel nostalgic for the naturism that was authorised and extremely

popular under the communist rule. The first nude flights will be a day-trip on

July 5 between Erfurt in southeast Germany and the Baltic Sea island in Usedom,

which is fringed by white sand beaches. Tickets cost 499 euros ($NZ970) and there

are just 50 seats on board the jet. "All the passengers will fly naked, but they are

only allowed to undress once they are in the plane. But even then they will be able

to enjoy the hour-long flight in the way God intended," Hess said."

Anyone planning to join them???!!!

So, now I cannot get my type back where I want it, without going advanced.....so will post and start over.

I L O V E the pics Tracy!!!!

GOOD LORD!!!!!!!! These Chantix pills are making me lose my mind for REAL. I have been so scatter brained. Putting clothes in the washing machine, pouring the soap in and not hitting the start button for example. I don't know how much more of it I can take. I am messing things up at work too. Things I could normally do in my sleep are a chore now. My mom called me the other day and jokingly says, hey this is your momma, do you remember me? LOL it is BAD!!

Tracy that is my fav pic of ALL!!!

I didn't have Snacks or sugar all day today either (I did have sugar free ice cream...but that's legal, right? In my book it is! :w00t:) The amazing thing is how I have actually survived without having snacks!!! With my hypoglycemia I've always, always had to have a mid-morning and mid-afternoon snack. If I didn't I'd feel hungry and weak by 10:30 and 3:30. But this band helps to slowly allow food into the stomach...which in turn slowly releases insulin...which in turn keeps my hypoglycemia (and related weakness and hunger) under control. Cool, eh? I might be onto something here! Man, if I can do without snacks, that's a 300-400 calorie deficit/day!

LOL TracyK ... too funny... a month early. Gotta love that Chantix!! :wink: Although, I have to admit I've never heard that 'stupid' was a side effect! :smile: You're making medical history.

TracyinKS - Ya'll just look soooo happy!! Gives me goose-bumps. :hurray::tt1::laugh:

OK HAYDEE -- one more day and we send out the monkeys!!!!!!!

      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.
