OT Rant! Nanny took my scale to her house!



Recommended Posts

What a crazy thing! Several months ago I wouldn't have noticed, nor cared, but this week, this week, she took my scale home to her house so she could weigh her luggage before flying to Brazil.

Hello?

My dh told her it was fine.

Normally, I probably wouldn't have cared, but I have been sick this week and haven't been going to the gym, so it is two fold, I could have weighed myself at the gym, and also, I really want to be careful as I am not burning as many calories on the treadmill, etc.!

The other thing is that we are going away tomorrow night and I sent our luggage via UPS to the hotel so I don't have to deal with it and the children - - normally I would have weighed it before UPS picked it up, but no...no can do without a scale.< /p>

The last point is, I would like to weigh myself before going on a vacation - - doh!

no need to respond, just needed to get that rant out.

How funny, I am sure there was a time when you never wanted to see a scale again (at least that is how I have felt). Try to relax and dont worry about weighing all the time. You can get too focused on the scale, so this is a chance for you to just make good choices and see what happens.

      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.
