Taking a wee holiday



Recommended Posts

No, not from the band! I really am going on my first vacation in several years - I am flying out tomorrow am.:eek: Seeing friends that haven't seen me in years - and we are going to have a rockin' good time!!:biggrin: Of course, the chances are I will also see my ex :frown: and although the ex and the new missus might be initially an awkward situation, we are all adults, and I am SO past it.

I will however not be accessing any computers, so I will miss all the conversations, laughs, NSV's and pity parties of the VVs. So, here's the deal, you guys bravely face the next 11 days without me...I know, I know, but you CAN do it! And then, when I get back, I will read each and every post and get caught up on all the news.

you won't forget me, will you??? :lol:

I will let you all know my experiences with flying with the band, vacationing without good restriction, encounters of the ex-kind, and seeing friends who don't know about the band.

Take care, keep up the Protein intake, watch for those insidious 'just one taste' devils, and repeat after me "I can do this; I will do this"

Tippy tappy away....

Hope you have a wonderful time. Enjoy it to the fullest. I think that can be done without much food. Not sure though, it used to be a big part of vacations for me. Make the ex good and jealous by not giving a damn.

      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.
