My march for mandatory avatars

Recommended Posts

Oh, thank you Sarah! But, actually that is a "Before" picture (before eye surg). The other smilie one (white shirt) is more recent and looks more like me. The above pic is a glam shot I had taken for my boyfriend at the time.

You know they put a ton of makeup on you and dress you up in great lighting for the glam shots. When I went to pick up the pics I was makeupless in scruffies and when the guy at the counter saw the pictures he looked at them and went, "Wow"... looked at me and said, "Is that YOU?"

Baaaaad sign!

LOL

I vote for avatars too. If I have to do it... you know the drill.

Oooh, DeLarla, you should change your tag line to "bossy sassafrass"

Drum roll please... after 2 hours of playing with iPhoto, I finally figured out how to upload a picture. Thanks for the kick in the pants - I probably wouldn't have bothered otherwise. NOW can I go to bed pleeeeeease? ;)

I want to know how to fix my own, would someone please take the time to give us step by step CLEAR instructions on how to not only do the avatar, but to add pictures to the picture page. I've tried so many times and I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I have a glich somewhere, lol.

      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.
