It started as one chip you know how that goes. But for the first time i saw how i got fat!!! Im sending all chips to work with mike tomorrow.. bad bad stuff..

ok ladies Here is an update:

just got back from meeting Liz..........surgery is scheduled for Monday,NOVEMBER 23!!!!

I have a lifestyle class to go to next wed then on Nov 12 another class...then 13th meet with Baggs. I am so nervous!!!!

Let me tell you, I'm sure you all know Liz is no Joke! she is a tough mama. She was not happy with the amount of lbs Ive lost thus far and she let me know....I agree with her I could do better. She is very knowledgable and didnt sugar coat anything which I really liked because it was the truth. She said she would like me to lose 20 lbs b4 surgery although they will still do surgery it would help. I agree, I definatly need to continue my discipline with food.

DANG it's a few days b4 thanksgiving what TORTURE!! Looks like Clear Liquids for thanksgiving dinner for me. She also mentioned this forumn, she said it was a great tool.

I actually used the baby spoons mostly the over the last 2 weeks. It helped me to eat slow since not so much will fit on those spoons. Even had a kids sippy cup so I wouldn't gulp my Water. I was trying to be careful. But now it's a whole nother party, regular spoons and all.

Nicole- I know I havent personally met you...but I will pray for you and your family. This as you have heard is not healthy for Auds. Please..Please it might be a good idea to seperate for a little while or seek marriage counseling or go to your local church and see if they have marriage counseling. I am NO stranger to what you are going through I hate to say but I have had the cops at my house many many times in the past.

Yea Maria!!!!!! Happy Turkey day! it's overrated anyway (wink wink).

Keep trying to loose, let me tell you I had a month before surgery and at every step of the way you have to be weighed and be below goal so don't let yourself splurge too much LOL

Congratulations!

AnaLynn- Becuase she wanted me to attend a few classes and take some medication to help me menstruate she would like to get that normal first b4 suregery (I havent had a full menstrual for over a year I know TMI) I also requested an end of the month surgery appt that is why it's so far out.

If you lose those 5lbs (which you will) I am sure she can get you in sooner than my appt. You might still be an October bandster.

I think carbs are addicting. Ok i know they are addicting. They got me today. I think im gonna go for my walk tonight even though im sore. Gotta burn some of the millions of cals i ate... eh not good.

Candra you are HILLARIOUS, some of the things you say. I know he said sorry after the cops left but oh well.. its getting harder and harder to leave emotionally. Today i sent off for an apt. I should hear by the end of the week. Im just not gonna talk about leaving. I told mike today we need a break and he agreed. As long as i watch my mouth nothing will happen as we speak im filling out an employment app.

Candra- Do you make cakes for just family or do you do this as a business?

My Brother will be 40 at the end of October and I was hoping I can ask you about a cake, I wanted something done like "over the hill" or "old fart" something funny and different even if you can't make the cake let me know if you have any creative ideas for the cake. The colors will be Teal blue and Purple

I am no pro! I was making the cakes for my friends engagement party simply because I'm the martron of honor and she asked me for help - she can't bake at all. It's my stepdaughter that is the pastry chef. I will ask her if she can think of anything - sure she can cuz she's extremely creative - Maybe to a 3d type cake iin the shape of a hill LOL. We'll work it out!

Here's a picture of the centerpiece cake jessica and I did - I baked the cake and custard (champagne cake - yucky) and she did all the carving and decorating - don't know if you can tell from the pics put it's paisley shaped.

      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.
