Good Morning all

You can add what ever you like to season, I like a little kick but whatever makes you happy works. That's the nice thing.

I was born in Burbank and still have family out there, I went with dd about 8 years ago and we did disney for 2 days, by the middle of day 2 we were done, but could have done a few at SeaWorld, and I want to do 1 at Universal and do 2 beach days. Plus, I might splurge and book the Nick hotel which has a huge Water park.

Went out with a retired Marne who i met at my last job last night, he is so sweet, actually asked if we could start dating. Had such a nice time, he is in the middle of a divorce and knows what I've been dealing with, so no secrets.

anyway, going to shower, going to a roller skating party

xoxoo

and yes, Vicki, throw that junk away! or Wait for your quiet time this week, nice and quiet and good time to focus :blink:

big Gurl how do you do the pouch test, is it liquids or what..?

Vicki..Congrats for making it into Onderland! You have to be careful with the low-fat and fat-free ice-creams cause they'll make you think you can eat more of it and before you know it, you'll be eating the whole thing! Those calories will sneak up on ya!

Try those Vootrans cookies.. those are lower in calories 90 cal each and nice size ones.

There's no way to get around litening up cake lol...the only you can do is use the weightwatchers smartones for Desserts since its portion controlled.

The pouch test is basically 2 days full liquids, 1 day soft Protein, 1 firm Protein, 1 day solid protein. It does help.

the scale will probably jump up tomorrow, the calories probably havent caught up with me yet..I know what you mean yvette the light is not always the best choice, I even heard if you eat full fat it is more satisfying so you dont eat as much of it...

Hot marine had to go to Nebraska to take care of some things. What a strange weekend

Anyway, up to 183 after yesterday. I'm going to shower and do some running for my project with Patriot Hills, and hit the gym

Well, I sneezed and my weight went up like I said 200.4 this a.m. I know its only a half lb. but it is the difference between onederland or not...I wish I could get comfortably under 200...maybe the cabbage Soup will do it. I don't think I can do the pouch test, I am too hungry all the time....

I'm afraid to get on the scale

I had a cup of Soup, mostly veggies and a serving of the biggest loser meatballs for lunch, was almost like a wedding soup, then i went to the gym, did 40 mins on the arc trainer and jogged 1/4 mile and walked 3/4. I am not going to get on the scale until Friday, I know what I was yesterday and I am not going to beat myself up, an hr of cardio is nuts in my mind

      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.
