Long, long, long day here.

I worked my shift this morning and than went over ot my sisters to pay her bills. Came home and mowed the yard. I got a call from a girl at the south store wanting to know if I could come in and finish her shift. She had a chance to go to the Royals game, so I went in and ended up having to train 2 girls to workout. Now I'm home and feet are up and watching DWTS's. I'm like Haydee......Pooped.

Good evening, Violets..

Had a good day with Ethan. We went outside and raked and played with the yorkies. I had to watch for eagles and hawks though. Didn't want the little dogs to get snatched up. It's the first time the yorkies have been out in months and they were enjoying it as was I.

Tomorrow is hospital shift and then I have to go to the church sometime in the afternoon to sort out choir robes and get them in some kind of order. Seems that Sunday there were people who couldn't find their robes.. sheesh.

Laura.. you look great!!! Certainly not like someone who just gave birth almost a month ago.

Grady turned 2 months old Sunday. He laughs now and looks all around and sure loves his mommy and daddy. Gramma is working on him. In a month I'll start babysitting him. Ethan will be at day care on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I only will have one to babysit at a time. That makes this old Gramma happy.

Jane.. I'm PROUD of you. The stars are a great idea as long as you can trade them in for special things for YOU.

TracyK..your attitude is great again too. Posting another before pic is a big step on the right path.

I was looking forward to being in the hot tub tonight, but the code was back even after they have been out twice to fix it. They are supposed to come back tomorrow to see what the problem is and why it isn't fixed yet.

I gotta tell you, I felt so good at the Water park. There were many ladies who were much heavier than I walking around in their tight swimsuits. I never could do that when I was heavier. Now I strut my stuff and enjoy the water instead of sitting on the sidelines all covered up.

I hope to get some triking in tomorrow if the weather continues to be nice. I have a rehearsal in the evening. Busy as usual.

Hope everyone has a great evening. sleep well.

:sad:just lost my post!

Anyways I got 2 out of four stars today. I exercised, and didn't drink with my meal. I ate a little over one cup, and at taco bell, so I lost two stars for that.

I don't know what to do as a reward and was thinking that maybe I should get to hold Carson for the longest with my stars!!!!!!!!!

      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.
