Mmmm, watermelon. I need to add that to my shopping list while they're still in season!

I'm really looking forward to the fall/winter season. Apple Hill opens on Labor day and I'm hoping it's not too hot around the beginning of September so we can go. It's my favorite place to be in the fall! Have you girls been there?

I really need to do something...don't know what though. I worked out, cleaned the house (yesterday) and finished the laundry this morning. I need to think of something!

Today is Sophie's early day (Monday's they get out at 1:50) and we're gonna go swimming after I pick her up. Got to enjoy the pool before it closes for the year!

Apple Hill is just past Placerville. It is the coolest place! The little shops are only open from Labor day til Christmas Eve. There are TONS of little shops there with homemade crafts, fresh fruit, yummy treats, etc. They have pumpkin Patches for halloween/Thanksgiving and TONS of tree farms to cut your own tree down at Christmas.

We used to live in El Dorado Hills and were only about 15 minutes away and we went almost every week while they were opened. It's really fun, I definitely recommend it!

Christine, what fun! I love holidays, and apple cide, and crafts, and liitle shops. . . any chance that we could get a bunch of walking in there, or is a driving from farm to farm kind of a deal?

You could walk from one to the next, especially you! They're all in a big loop and you could go as far as you wanted. I've never done that, but this year around that time I'll probably be almost 100 lbs less than last year so maybe I'll give it a try! ;)

Oh goodie, another walking day trip! That sounds like a blast, let's get a vanpool together and do it on a Saturday or Sunday? Or even a Monday or Friday, probably less crowded then . . . .

Candra I can do Petaluma anytime except this coming weekend, my stepmom is having a medical procedure & I have to fly to Portland then drive to Bend - ugh - and oh actually the next weekend the 30th is the Santa Rosa Marathon, but I can't really afford the entry fee for that . . . what about August 29th? Does that work for everybody for the petaluma walk? I have to call Liz once I get a tentative from yous guys . . . .

      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.
