hey all, just getting up off the couch I don't know why I'm so lazy today. Well I got up this morning and took down my tree since the recyclers are coming tomorrow. Guess that wore me out LOL...looks like I need to take one more day off tomorrow :wub: I feel something coming on....

John you are too funny I haven't watched Bridezilla in forever. Good luck tomorrow I know things are going to work out for you. We're glad you've stuck around its good to get a little different perspective every once in a while. Thats a trip you and Monique are going on the same day. OK Candra you need to make that call too.

Monique I think I'm gonna wear my body magic this week. I don;t remember it being too tight on NYE just I had to keep taken it off to go pee which was a hassle.

OMG let me go, my football parlay is not doing too well. :unsure:

John-Happy New Year! I can't wait to meet you. As I admire your faith in the "process" and ability to hang with this crazy bunch. LOL.... Your turn is coming. Yes, Bridezilla is total craziness!!! You would not believe some of the BS these women demand, expect and do for their weddings... I chose the no frills way-out...Contrary to popular belief...most of us would never act that way!!!! Enjoy........You will if nothing else, get a good laugh.

Monique – Depending on traffic I'll be there around 10 for a 10:30 appointment and will look out for you! I think your appointment is around 9am. We might miss each other.

Thanks ladies for the kind words! I’m determined but it sometimes is hard as the process is not easy…

GOOD LUCK TOMORROW JOHN! I will be tuning in all day waiting to hear the outcome! Be firm with Doc Who!

Bridezilla is too crazy - I can't watch it because I get way too annoyed with those women

Monique - I, too, took the no frills way - Cloud 9 wedding chapel in Tahoe with about 15 people total! The total cost - including the room & dress was under $1,000.00 and we had a blast! We were already living together for 3 years so.... I really just want to know when the whole institute of marriage became such a show out - like just showing off for people! What happened to romance and intimacy??

Oh, Bridezilla aka: Hitler has never worn her body magic and has decided to sell it - any takers - it's a size 34 & it's the strapless one so it's beige color (the only color it comes it)

Jes - I will make that call tomorrow

I have to confess. I ate a slice....slither of a slice of Nations Cheesecake last night after dinner. It sure was good. I got to get that thing out of here...Still half left.

Candra-are you calling for an appt??? Please do...Put the fire under Dr Who!!!

Canolie-congrats on the jeans... Isn't it great when someone can use something you can't?

Good Luck tomorrow John - be assertive if you need to.

My food for today: br 1 Premier Protein drink - 160 cal, lunch 1 Snickers Protein Bar 210 cal, dinner 1/2 cup tuna w/ mayo, pickles,celery and 5 Club crackers, 5 Red Vines. I am done for the day. I was down a pound today - now only 4 more to go to get back to where I was before the holidays.

I finally got all the laundry done and the downstairs bathroom scrubbed from top to bottom. Also helped my 15 yr old son go through his shirt closet and put in Wonder Hangers - that boy has close to 70 shirts. I was able to pull about 10 out to keep for a yard sale. He doesn't have a full sized closet as he sleeps in the bonus room that doesn't have a closet.

Any of you seen "Julie & Julia"? I watched it on Netflix today and really liked it.

Hi all,

I ended up eating bad!

Breakfast - 1 Venti Decaf Latte and 3 Turkey Sausage

Lunch - 1 low carb tortillia with cheese

Snack - bottle mocha lite

Snack again - here's where it happened. a small bag of chips and salsa. Then came home and had a handful of doritos.

So do I stop there? OF COUSE NOT

Dinner - large mcdonalds quarter pounder meal. 2 Cookies.< /span>

I feel SOOOO SICK to my stomach, why do I keep doing this to myself??? I am drinking Water now trying to flush it out...yuck.

Got my treadmill today too! $75 bucks. Not bad. I lasted 7 mins on it??? why do they seem harder @ home next to walking outside? I will slowly get into it. Goal tomorrow is 30 mins.

      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.
