Shrinking Violets Part 4



Recommended Posts

Tracy - It sounds like you're being strong for you and Robby throughout all this. And it also sounds like you've made up your mind about things being done with Charles? Whatever the case may be or whatever the outcome is I am thankful that you are staying positive and strong. We love you and are here for you...

Suzie - it sounds like you have alot on your plate too Suze. I hope that you find some resolution to everything going on with your family right now...

Laura - he is too cute! I can't believe he's only 3m old. He's gotten so big already!

Pam! How exciting for your face! Can't wait to see pics!

Jane - sending you a hug! Wish you were closer so we could visit...

Judy - no sugar for me today but i'm like a crackhead going through withdrawls. Everything looks like candy to me right now! The little smileys look like m&m's....

The bridal show on Sunday was so much fun. The bridal stores didn't have samples that you could try on this year but I did make two appts to go and try some on at the end of August. I can't believe we are in August already!

Tracy... I'm glad you're finding peace again.

Suzie... why are you "trying desperately to keep peace amongst them all"? Let it be.... for your own sake, dear one! You cannot control others, only yourself... you be pleasant & let the others deal amongst themselves. IMHO... :crying:

Laura, I am sorry to hear the man child is growing. I told him not to...too bad he didn't listen to me.

Can't wait to see your results, Pammy!! You're going to be even more gorgeous than before....well, in another 10 days you will!! During those 10 days you're gonna look like SHIT!! LOL :thumbup:

Tracy - Hang on to your hat, girly! I'm sorry, but that Cody kid has some MAJOR issues!!! Sounds like he met his match with you!!

Suzie... why are you "trying desperately to keep peace amongst them all"? Let it be.... for your own sake, dear one! You cannot control others, only yourself... you be pleasant & let the others deal amongst themselves.
That's what I was thinking! Trying to be the peace-keeper will wear you out!! I say go get a pedicure and let them have at each other!! If they're still at it when you get home, then go see a movie. Then, if need be, move to the double-gold margarita. :crying:

no pics because i didn't try anything on! And then at the fashion show I didn't sit close enough to the stage to get good pics with my cell phone of the ones I liked. But I booked an appointment with ventura bridal where I found what I liked. Let me see if I can find pics...

Holding my own right now. Told everyone they need to find a happy medium with each other, that I'm tired of trying to please everyone.

Stress is good for not eating.

Good evening,Violets..

The pool heater is reinstalled and heating up the pool. Only problem is that the pool is almost overflowing. We have had sooooooooooo much rain!! Bob has to go out and backwash to get rid of some of the Water.

No biking tonight because of the rain, but I have not had sugar today, so that's a good thing.

TracyinKS.. ((hugs)) Sounds like things should be much more normal for you and Robby now. Cody sounds freaky. You're much better off without having to fear what he'd do to Robby. How is Robby doing this summer now that school's out?

Suzie...(((hugs))) and hope you get in that pool and chillax. I hope to get in ours tomorrow.

Off to fill up the hummingbird feeder and check all the flowers. Everything is REALLY green and wet!

Have a good evening...sleep well. We've almost made it through today!!

Tracyks, I am so sorry you are dealing with all this! I am sending you a BIG VIOLET HUG!!!!

I have been thinking a lot about you Terry, and hope things work out!!

I got a new phone today, then I found out it doesn't take any calls!! Off tomorrow to fix that. I hate that!! I am going to the supply store tomorrow Kat, so I will buy some hand creme and hopefully it is on sale!!

I really am not in a bad place. Just wishing I was able to really care and love myself more. I mean, I drive and see somebody jogging that is all sweaty, and think YUCK!! but in reality I should be jealous because they love themselves enough to jog/exercise. Maybe that can explain a lot of things in my life. I mean, self destruction is my way of life. When I got the band I couldn't understand how ANY one could 'eat around it', now I know. It is easy!! It is just one of the ways I sabatoge myself. I remember how the other day Tracyk said she sucked or something simlilar, and I said you don't and you wouldn't say that about somebody else, so why do you say that about yourself? That hit home for me, without even realizing it then. I might not verbalize it, but my actions speak louder than words. Maybe that can solve a lot of my problems.......... Maybe for August I can work on my attitude, what comes out of my mouth or is inside my head instead of what I eat for the month.

Wow, if you just read that give yourself a pat on the back, that was a looonngg post!!!

      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.
