Quit talking to your mom. We're all worriers. She'll try to convince you that it's a sign when in reality it's just a storm. :mad:

Operating rooms have tons of generators. They don't stop mid-surgery. Yours is a quick procedure so don't worry.

Power is out here too......Dr. Baggs is great I totally trust him you will be fine!!! I thought hospitals have back up generators. I hope they go through surgeries today. I bet they will.

The lady in the room next to me yesterday was getting the sleeve I heard them talking to her a bit........interesting stuff. I asked Dr. BAggs but he said he is sure the band is gonna work for me!! LOL. Work is gonna kill me when I tell them I have another appointment thought.............

Ok so working from home until things calm down a bit. We have a tree down in my street so waiting for that to get cleaned up than outta here........

I hope they got the power back up for Tamra. I stayed home today too - going to call in for a meeting at 11 am. I drove my kids to school but I wasn't feeling it as far as driving to Rancho Cordova. I did my taxes last night and between the two my refund is $2200.00 less than last year - my anxiety level went way up. I use my tax refunds to pay property taxes, car insurance etc so I'm going to have to figure something out.

My food so far today was 1/2 cup baked Beans and 4 crackers.

I've been awake since 4 am so I'll definitely be taking a nap after I call in to my meeting.

I hope everyone stays safe today. Somebody please post when they hear about Tamra.

oh yeah Tina - I wonder if I have a note in my file? I don't recall being nasty to her when we talked about me being a grown up and being responsible for my own choices etc.

Hmm Tamra should be out by now if the surgery went through.

Pam I was nice in what I said too but what does a making a note mean? I hope they don't make it a bad thing. I didn'nt have one but I am sure Dr. Baggs will talk to hear about what I said they are good friends.

Yea Pam my taxes are alot less to this year. Last year I got 900 for the state and this year 36. And the state is still broke??? I know they took away some of the child tax great. Well ok most of the credit..........I don'te know about this but if they forlough and tax heavy.........well how can people afford this?

I finally left the house but now I am stuck at a Dennys since Watt Ave is totally down and that is how I get to Rancho Cordova............sounds like my office power is out I don't know what the point is of trying to get to that side of town.......

Tamra let us know how it goes and how you feel!!

Yay Tamra - you did it. I got chills when I read Nicolie's message that you were done and in recovery.

Yep Tina the dependent exemption on the state side went from $352 per child to $98 - my state refund went from $1118 to $185.

Well I have had to get up out of my recliner three times to see what blew over on the back porch and each time I grabbed a few crackers, the next time a few pretzels - what am I doing - I'm not even hungry. I think my emotions are talking loud today. I will have to get dressed before I pick my daughter up at 3:30 - still in my nightgown and robe. - watching Biggest Loser that I taped.

      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.
