Good Morning!

It's great to read about the 16th, but that's the last weekend that my son will be in town so I won't be able to come. I'm hoping to make the next walk.

My son's GF left Monday night and he left for LA yesterday morning. I finally got a great sleep and feel much better. I've been fighting off a sore throat and sleep really does make a difference. By 9:45 I was falling asleep last night.

This morning my scale is 232.4. I'm going to try to eat light today and wear clothing that isn't too heavy in hopes of not gaining too much on the Kaiser scale tonight. Dang I wanted to be at 230 on the Kaiser scale tonight but the holidays really got me. My last Kaiser weigh in was 235.5 but that was at 8am.

Tonight is the last time there will be a scale at the meeting. How do you all do your weight checks without having to pay the co-payment?

I have the dentist for a cleaning at 8am so I have to get moving.

food.< /p>

B. Muscle Milk Light

L. Lot's of romaine, chicken breast and a touch of dressing

D. After the meeting tonight - not sure yet.

Lot's of Water and herbal tea. I do love that Ocean Spray diet Cran-Pomegran that some of you were raving about. Thanks for the tip!!

Let's make this a day of great choices.

Tamra - bring your daughter - I am so used to kids - she might surprise you and act like an angel - remember I have three kids and they were far from perfect when they were 3 yrs old -

Reggie - sure you can bring your kids - anyone who wants to can.

You can bring whatever you want to - it might be an odd mishmash but that is more fun anyway - too much work to coordinate dishes.

So far we have Candra, Reggie +2, Tamra +1, Nicolie, Heather, Nicole +1, me +3 - did I miss anyone? I can't wait.

Lee - have fun at the dentist. Ah... sleep - I miss it so much LOL - hope to see you tonight

Ash - the autism thing I feel is like the fat thing - everything that is wrong they blame on the weight - got a headache/you're fat! Can't sleep/you're fat - blah blah blah - I think that's why they say they "practice" medicine because they still haven't perfected it yet. for the carb detox I just fasted for a bit (2 day) Water & coffee was all that I had - really slows my metabolism down but it's the only way I can do it. I'm having some weird binge eating thing - once I start eating I can't seem to stop so not eating at all is what works best for me LOL.

Tam - you never have to feel embarassed around us - we are here to "support" each other - not judge. ALL kids go thru these stages so don't feel like your kid is the only one - just ask Nicole - she went thru it with Auds.

REGGIE - I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE COMING ON THE 16TH I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU!

so, last night at 1:30 am I had a little carb fest - time to fast again - I'm cranky cuz I truly can NOT sleep - gonna try to get some ambien or something from my Doc till thiss little insomnia episode passes. Grrr.

Have a great day ladies & Gentleman!

good morning....just a quick check in. I've got back to back meetings all day.

I got back on my elliptical this morning after a few days off. I brought luchmeat & cheese for lunch not sure about Breakfast I may go get a skinny latte. :thumbup:

So I'll be at Kaiser this evening about 5:45 depending on traffic. I've got this body magic on so I may not get on the scale tonight. Plus I'll just get pissed off.

See some of you later....I'm trying to convince Babysista to come for a jumpstart.

Have a groovey day!

Nicolie - I don't know what the deal is but it's got to stop! I need to sleep and, yes, I usually take a hot bath every night before bed - just feels better to climb in bed all warm & clean - I love my baths - i read or sometimes take my laptop in and watch a movie while I prune LOL.

Today I'm trying to jump back on my mini meals - gotta drop some more weight before I see Doc Who on the 21st - REALLY WANT A FILL - so I gotta be down enough to get one :(

Tamra - get on here and share with us - how the weight check went hehehehe.

I will see you all - all that is coming - tonight -

Have a great day ladies!~

      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.
