An NSV that pays $



Recommended Posts

My boss came up behind me in the breakroom today, and started tugging at the butt of my pants. He was laughing at me because they are too loose and it shows (they're my size 10s). I told him that I was going to buy more pants, but I'm trying to lose a little more weight. A while later, he came into my office and handed me a check for $500. In the memo section, it says "For new pants." Isn't that wonderful???:)

Nice! Would be great to have a boss like that. I'd even tolerate the butt part for $500. Hell, he could touch my butt for $5.00. LOL

I wasn't the slightest bit offended. You'd just have to know this guy. He'd be mortified if he thought he had upset me. I emailed my husband to tell him, and his answer was "Either he really cares about you, or he wants to see your butt in tighter pants. Tell him for another $500, I'll take a picture for him." Ha! Even my husband knows he's not trying to be fresh with me. He's just a really nice, very generous man.

Let's trade bosses! In all seriousness, I'm so happy for you!

Nice, I had the same kind of conversation with the owners of my company, they commented on the weight loss, and my big clothes, and I said, well, I am taking donations to the Clothing fund, care to contribute? They said as soon as I was getting desperate for clothes, in an area where I have nothing to wear they would. I am not holding my breath, but it is nice that people are commenting. I am not offended in the least.

      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.
