My New Year's resolution is to get back on track with my eating and exercise and to be nicer to myself - no more negative self talk and worry.

Thanks for the directions to the pier. Can't wait. Hopefully the weather cooperates.

This is the first New Year's Eve in forever that I actually got invited to two parties and I'm not going to either. Maybe next year. I stopped at costco on my way home from work and got some Protein Shakes. We're going to my parents' house tomorrow for ham - egads I already feel seriously bloated.

I love you right back! LOL, we'll get you eatin' our freaky-healthy vegetarian food yet, LOL. I don't think even Tina eats tofu!! Fry it up crispy & salty enough though, OOYAA

Pami I'm invited and not going either! I can't afford one party, and I can't afford to go sit at a bar for the other one. Chris has Chris Jr. so he's not coming over and we can't do anything . . . I can deal tho, will walk down to Round Table to see youngest at work, have a couple of beers with middle son, and walk back home! Then talk to Chris on the computer half the night, LOL. My life is BORING . . . . but I like it :-)

My life is boring too - I have my three kids and three others over playing at the moment. They wanted to spend the night but I said no - I want peace and quiet in the morning. Mike - the internet guy - just e-mailed me for my phone number - he lost it - I am really not feeling it with him and think I am going to close my POF and Yahoo accounts - doesn't feel like the right way for me to meet guys - I am pretty old school - anyone know any single old school kind of guys? My friend at work Michael said the couple of guys he knows are players so he doesn't want to introduce me to them. I'm ready to go back into my hole and concentrate on other things.

Welcome Ali! Do you have Kaiser? Where do you live?

I got my referral just by asking. If you're a low bmi there may be more to it though.

Pammie - we just need to get out and do things - you will have no problem meeting somebody if you just get out and be seen - Think of the things you're into and that's where you need to go to find your perfect mate :biggrin: I met mine in his livingroom LOL I was just giving a friend a ride to see her BFwho just happened to be his roomie -

Ali - If you have Kaiser, yes they do the surgeries in either Richmond, So SF, or Fremont. If your BMI is 35 you need two comorbidities, if it is 40 or over you don't need any. You need to ask your PCP for a referral forng bariatric surgery.

Candra - I am going to check with a couple other people I know to see if they know anyone they can introduce me to. I think I just have the after Christmas moody blues. I just had frosted flakes for dinner and a few bbq chips. My Protein Shakes are getting cold. I made my two vegetarians Boca burgers and a regular burger for my meat eater - I wanted a burger with a bun, but I know that won't work so I had the Cereal.

So who is meeting us on Sat? I think me, Maria, Candra, Riley and who else? We want to make sure we don't leave someone.

      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.
