Linda...we should have made the time to stop on our way to FL last year. But, DH was on a mission and keeping his nose to the ground to find the farm show he was after. Next time. Would love to meet you.

Cute story about your baby and the lab. Some of Tanker's friends are so, so tiny.

I booked the 2 bedroom which also has a couch. Would anyone like to share with me??? If not, I can change it to a one bedroom.

Have cut way back on my computer time so missed all the posts yesterday.

Karen - hope things work out so that you can join us.

Need to go book my air and have already secured my dog sitter for Gizmo.

Joyce

P.S. went shopping today and still look AWFUL in everything I tried on. Can't wait to enjoy shopping again.

I got a message at home while I was at the gym this morning from Laura that she would be in town at 230 so she should be here some where. She's staying downtown, I hope I find my way. EGADS!!

Julie, you'll have to take pics of your remodelling. Glad your pain has been better, hoping for it to be gone and not just better soon.

Apples, here's hoping there's no storms tonight so you can get some sleep without a scared pup! I have a skittish lab as well but fireworks and storms don't bother her, just strange people and situations. She reminds me of an old person that likes their routine. Take them out of their routine and they are flustered at least that's how my grandma is.

Linda, thanks for taking care of our reservation. When you have the total email me the amount and I will send a check pronto (well semi pronto I won't be home til Mon or Tues but pronto then).

Hang in there, Joyce. I used to feel like my body just was not catching up with the scale and my head was not catching up with the weightloss. A vicious circle. You will get there....be patient. Now, I would probably look at you and think you looked wonderful. We are too tough on ourselves.

And, it really doesn't look like I will be in Vegas but thanks for the kind words. End of Sept thru end of Nov is when I am really needed around here.

Janet - want to thank you for all your work on LV trip. Not easy co-coordinating with so many of us in all different locations.

Linda - they didn't need anything from me about the other person in the room - just an FYI.

It will be so wonderful to meet everyone.

Joyce

P.S. Gizmo also alerts one hour before storm begins and shakes like a leaf. Dog trainer advised Bach's Rescue Remedy mouth spray as a possible solution. Have not tried it yet.

Lori - don't forget your camera so you can share with all of us. And good luck finding your way downtown.

Julie - please take pix when your remodeling is complete and share with all of us. Hoping Mayo's will find the answer to your pain.

Hi gang! I have been miserable all day. You see, I started on real food friday. I always take Miralax , but when I started the shakes I stopped because of all the Fiber. Well, I forgot to take the Miralax. Oops, then last night I took a prescription laxative....not good. Needless to say.....I am sitting on donut cushion. lol I know TMI, but I don't want y'all to make the mistake I did. I couldn't even go weigh in. Okay, nough said.

Apples have a good time.....you will be missed.

Hey LaGordita....try not to sweat it. I have seen so many posts where people gain a little once they switch to mushies or soft foods. Just make sure to stick to your doc's plan and the amount of calories he suggests, get out and move each day. This time is for healing and taking care of yourself. If you stick to your plan, you will see that scale moving again. Wishing you the best!

Any other questions or concerns you might have????

I guess it was my fault for not managing time right. I should've had all the stuff packed for camping, I just thought I had more time. I am usually not a procrastinator. The builder guy came, my electrical is all okay, we had a concern. I am anxious to see the kids but not real anxious to sleep in a tent. LOL It's supposed to be a hot weekend, so will be nice up in the mountains. I will be back on Monday.

Have fun, safe travels. Don't kick yourself. We all have things that get in the way of our plans sometimes.:thumbup:

      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.
