Gruene Violets



Recommended Posts

I just got the biggest kick out of you all!!! Thanks for making my dreary morning better!!!

In St. Louis they have these tubs of Margarita mix that you add a bottle of tequila and then freeze (you probably don't have to freeze) they are good and an alternative to mixing it up all the time. Are they available in Texas? I don't think I could fit the tub in my suitcase because of the funny shape. But really I usually don't drink that much and can drink whatever just thought of this as an idea.

Those are YANKEE margaritas!! We make 'em for REAL down here in Texas, girlfriend!!

Jane--if you want any of those margaritas --or any other mixed drink once we return to our room---it better be pre mixed----I don't know how to make for REAL drinks!!!!! I am bartender challenged!!!

Hell Yeah! Bring on the margies!!!

And shots of Patron! Lick it, slam it, suck it (tequilla of course, get your minds out of the gutter).

Everything is bigger in Texas so my ass will fit right in! HAHAHAHAHAH:lol::lol::lol:

I make my own Margaritas too- easy and so much better than the mix

Pam - I use to lick suck and slam too... sad to say I've graduated and drink with the big boys - (I have a friend who is older and got me drinking straight on the rocks with a garnish of a lemon wedge)

It might come from living for so long where I felt a decided lack of control---but I don't like being that out of it! If I were to drink straight anything, I would be a zombie in nothing flat! Not to mention I would feel like I'd been hit by a Mack Truck the next morning.

I don't mind a few mixed drinks on occasion, lightly mixed so they taste like something besides alcohol---but I would never have one unless we were out, or celebrating, or had a party going on. I don't think I have ever drank by myself......hmmmm

OMG I bore myself!!!

Well, since being banded and drinking nothing for 9 months... I am done after 1 good mixed drink.

My days of drinking straight tequila are done, I can't function the next day... now grape vodka and crystal light I feel great the next day. But if I was to do a shot of tequila it would be without the lick and suck.

A totally girly shot... Buttery Nipple anone? they are so yumm

It is funny...I talk a ton of BS w/ the drinking. Yes, I do like me some margies...and yes, I will do a (singular) shot of Patron (on occasion, 2) but that is it...and then sip on a margie. I also don't like getting "out of it". I haven't been too drunk since college (which as you all know...I am still in college...KIDDING...I mean as an undergrad.) I like being in control...I like acting silly...I love to chat w/ my amigas...I love to relax...but I love me always being in control of me.

I just don't want ya'll to think I am a lush.

It is funny too...I can and usually do go months w/o a drink. It is always Spring that there are so many festivities that I tend to drink more.

Yeah, Haydee's picking up IAH because she lives very close to the airport. Tracy, you're picking up the late San Antonio crowd.

Hah, I know me & Kat get there early at IAH. I don't care who it is that picks us up, as long as we aren't stuck there. Airport restaurants & bars are NOT CHEAP!! Teehee.

Buttery nipples are good, when we entertain customers that's generally what I get. Last time at a mexican restaurant, our waiter did not speak good english and I didn't know the translation for buttery or nipple. I kept saying "Buttery nipple", and I think he understood what I said, but thought I was mis-speaking.. so he had me write it down on his pad hah.

      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.
