Good Morning Y'all!

Diane - Sorry you feel so yucky! Stay in bed and get well!

I like the smaller weddings, it's so much more personal and stress is not as crazy!

I am so glad it is a short week, although I feel like I have worked a month straight! I am really tired this morning, and I need to get my arse in the shower and wake up!

Only two more days to get through! Then it's work at home, but that's not so bad since I don't have to get dressed up to do it. lol

Well going to get off here and get ready for the day.

Later!

Betty, you're one party throwing gal, always busy too.

Kat, where are you? Hope you're ok.

Well gals, I've been meaning to tell ya, the ps wants to redo my reduction and do implants to give me the lift I need/want. Plus, he's going to re-lipo my underarm area and a puffy area in my tummy. He wants $1,000.00 addl for the implants alone, plus another 1700 to do them, plus the OR and the anesthes fee. If I get my eyelids done at the same time, total cost will be another $6700.00. That's with "no charge" for the redo of the lypo and the redo of the reduction.

I don't think he should charge for the implant install at all, since I left it upto him to do the implants if he couldn't give me the lift and firmness I was looking for. Not sure what I'm going to do at this point, I just know I'm very disappointed with the boobs.

Later gals

      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.
