Plastic Surgery



Recommended Posts

Hey Nana,

Great to hear from you! Yep, anything you ever wanted to know about Becky and me (plus more LOL :biggrin:) is right there in the thread Becky linked to.

BTW, I love your quote on your signature from John Pinette -- I've seen his routine on TV a few times and he is hilarious!!!! Have you ever seen his bit about going to a Chinese all-you-can-eat buffet? I laughed so hard, I cried!

Congrats on losing 88 pounds lady -- that's fabulous!!!!

Nana, its so good to hear from you. Congrats on your continued weight loss success. You are doing great.

There is another "book" documenting mine and Frangi's surgery and post op recovery, with pictures no less, at the link below. Also on the main plastic surgery page you will find a whole thread dedicated to Salsa's surgery. We are all doing great! Please check in more often. We love to know how our fellow Crazy Ates are doing.

Thank you -- I feel bad for having been AWOL for so long. But my daughter got married -- a "simple" beach wedding -- translation: to cut costs we did everything ourselves. (In truth, "I" did almost everything because she has a 2 y/o to chase around and it's just easier to do it than to keep him.)

I promise to put in more appearances. And thanks for the link. I was reading and realized there was still several pages to go, so I'll finish later when I have more time. I'm just so excited for ya'll tho'!!

And I realize -- I've been unintentionally sabotaging myself. I should be down 100 by now. It's the curse of the tortilla chip!!! (One BITE of a flour tortilla shuts me down two bites make me slime -- but I can 'grind up' an ungodly amount of tortilla chips and never get full!!)

I always knew Tex-Mex would be the death of me!!

      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.
