Pics of me



Recommended Posts

I everyone. I know I don't post much and I'm still waiting on approval from UHC for my band, but I thought I'd post some before pics of myself. Unfortunately most of them I've cropped half of my body off so I don't look like such a porker LOL. . *sigh*

I'm the blonde... this was just this past St. Patty's day:

I love boxers too(not a come on!) classic.gif I just picked up a flashy fawn from the Arlington Animal Shelter. He's about a year old. He didn't have a name so I named him Jet after the Dallas Mavericks Jason"Jet"Terry. He's adapted very well.

Great pictures!

Great photos. I wish this surgery had been available when I was your age! Talk about feeling OLD!

You'll be very happy you did this now, and not waiting until you're over 40 to take control.

Good for you.

Hi Brandy,

You will love the band. And those sweet fawn babies will be a great help in the exercise dept. Good luck and keep sending the great pics of you and the dogs.

I love your babies! I have a 9 month old boxer mix (girl) named Scout that I adopted from the animal shelter. She looks mostly like a boxer but her nose isn't as squished up. She is a trip. She rips her bed apart just like yours do. Good luck with your band. You are on the right track.

Thanks! The flashy fawn is my own (aka "the bed shredder") LOL. The others in the pics are past fosters- I volunteer for a Boxer rescue group here.

Brandi,

Thanks for sharing the pictures. Just so you wont lose hope, I have UHC and they took a long time before they approved me. They paid 100%. Good luck.

*grin* I knew you would Christina :D

The album labeled Kali & Chynna (I fostered Kali)- those two girls were part of a cruelty case, luckily the crazy b*&^ch animal control took them from was sent to jail for animal cruelty. May she rot in there!! They had no hair, horible demodex mange, yeast infections in their ears and were sooooooo itchy. Thus the reason for the shirt- so she'd quit scratching herself bloody. But with a little TLC she was as good as new and all her hair came back and she's absolutely stunning now. My boxer girl loved her to death!!! She was VERY upset with me when she got adopted- She completely ignored me for a week, if I talked to her she would turn her head the other way. LOL

BOXERS RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love the shots Brandi!!!

      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.
