Oh Nicole don't tell people I did the math!! LOL. I am not 100% sure it is right since I used my own math forumla to get there..............LOL

Careful with the fills~~I started out not being able to drink much than one day I couldn't drink anything..........just watch it ladies beon the safe side!!And wishing you all your sweet spot.....

Yea I hope to get a decent fill on the 3rd........but if not I will go back sooner than six weeks..............so I MIGHT get to the next fill but maybe not..............

Make it a thak you card - put that machine to work!

I know I am late and this is a random thought but I also get upset when people are mean to animals.................I used to take in rescue cats but can't anymore since my siamese brats fight so much already...........they can't handle another animal.......

Speaking of stress and stress relief!! My cats are just that for me...............love those fluffy, naughty, gorgeous things..........my kitten stayed on my lap the whole time I was recovering he never got up except to eat and ah............make a desposit in the cat bank..........loving having the cuddly thing chilling with me that month...........except for the port jumps starts when he landed on my port............

When I am stressed I chill with my cats better than eating huh??

Tina we don't want you to stop! I love my cats but they are Psycho! Last night my male cat, Raider, was screaming at the front door so I went and opened it and, as it turns out - he brought me a mouse and was truly trying to bring it in the house - I teared up for the poor baby DEAD mouse - Raiders sister, Cali, started scratching at the screen so I let her out - she picked up the mouse and they both ran off into the sunset together!

Tonight I was having swiss cheese and ham slices for dinner. I walked away from the table or two minutes and when I got back, Cali was eating my swiss cheese - grrr!

My neighbors have a cat named Monkey - actually it was his daughters cat but she moved out and left him. Anyway, they don't take care of him - leave him outside all night even when we had those freeze warnings - Heres where you guys get to figure out that i'm crazy - My husband wouldn't let me steal Monkey so i bout him a covered cat box, put a pillow, blanket & heating pad in it (set to medium) and he slept in there all last year until I finally took him! now he sleeps on the bed with us - always wants to rub his face on mine around 4 am. My husband puts him out when he gets up and mumbles something crazy like it's not our cat - boo hoo! HE IS NOW!

I had six cats last fall...........1 was mine. The rest were 4 week old kittens that I found in the trash can at work. I kept them until they were 10 weeks old and didn't sleep much with all the fly by clawings in the night.....they were a wild bunch...............I ended up keeping Sami my baby boy...........he was the only siamese in the bunch and fiesty as hell...........but he is such a beauty and I am trying to tame him..........with the squirt bottle.........he attacks me sometimes and than I fun for the squirt bottle..........he backs off now when I pick it up...........check out my arms with all my scratches from the beast.............but he can also curl up and stay with you while your recovering from surgery..........he is bi polar for sure I am seeking help for him...................

He is my trash can baby. The other cat is full breed siamese and a diva............she is used to only the best and accepts no less............

Yep I am one of those crazy cat ladies you hear about!!

      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.
