Halloween 2009



Recommended Posts

Have you thought about our Bandiversary? I know it is a year away. I know we will have short term goals and long term goals, but what about next Halloween?

I think I'm going to go as a nurse (I am a nurse) but with the white dress, cap, and heels. I would love to be able to dress up like that for Halloween AND LOOK GOOD DOING IT!!!!

No matter how I dress I plan to go as a much happier, more comfortable person!!!! :girl_hug:

I agree! I don't have my date set in stone yet, but know that it will be in October. Halloween is my favorite holiday, so it makes me VERY happy that I will have my new b-day in the same month as Halloween! I can't wait until next halloween when I don't have to wear some ridiculous costume that is too tight and NEVER looks like it does on me as it does on the size 10 "plus size" model wearing it on the display. I want to go as something naughty, like a dominatrix or something like that that will excite the DH. :girl_hug:

I bought the fabric and all the accessories to make an gown like one of Arwen's in Lord of the Rings last year, but did not follow through because I couldnt stand the idea of being so big in that gown. I cant wait to be able to make it next year when I look good in it!

Oh, those are great ideas! I love dressing up anytime, theme parties are too much fun! I think I want to be a biker chick, I already have the motorcycle, but I hope to look better riding it next year. I won't be too risque`, I AM old enough to be a grandma, but I will have more fun and dance more at the party! :thumbup:

Those are some cool ideas too!! Like you ladies, I am just excited to be able to dress up next year and not feel so self-consious. I am sure this surgery will not "fix" how I feel about myself, but it wil cetainly help... :teeth_smile:

HALLOWEEN 2009, HERE WE COME!!

Mamacj - That's what I want to go as.. a (thinner) Biker Chick... I hope to have new leathers at halloween next year. We were at Street Vibrations in Reno today looking at leathers and my husband said I'm going to end up with a set for every day of the week!

Maybe one of those leather halter tops too! :biggrin:

Absolutely Vidahlia! I hope your surgery went well, I am 2 days post op and feeling good, just a bit sore. I can't wait to see the numbers drop!! This halloween will probably be a floor length gown from an earlier century, but next year, LOOK OUT, biker leather and my Harley boots!! :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.
