Good morning, Violets...

I slept in till 9 this morning. Bob got up and greeted Ethan at 8. I made Breakfast for Ethan and Bob and I had a few bites of the eggs and sausage. Then got dressed and was playing on the computer when the mail arrived. In it was a beautiful angel pin and book from my Secret Santa! THANK YOU PamELA.. I sent you an email with a link to Ethan and I reading the book. We both love it!! Let me know if the link works for you. I'll forward it on to the rest of the Violets so you can see how I spend my day!

Nothing on the agenda today except Flute rehearsal at 6:30 tonight.

Tomorrow morning we are finishing up all the wrapping of Christmas gifts and figuring out what we need to finish it off. I think we are pretty much done though and that's a good feeling this early!

Off to forward the email to my Violets..

Everyone have a great day!!!

Three Cups of Tea...Greg Mortenson

My DH just read this and he said it is a great book. It is next on my "to read" list and is sitting on my nightstand.

He said his culture is similar to his in that by the time you have had tea at someone else's house three times, then you are pretty much like family. Tea to them is more than just a drink, it is a daily ritual of utmost importance.

Good morning girlies~

77 today!!aaaahhh.

Just got home from the gym, and Sus slept in (she is still sleeping). I did 30 min on the eliptical and yes, it damn near killed me. The bottom of my feet cramps up, I even had to stop at 10 min and try to stretch more. Then I got on and did speed intervals! Anyone know of the group The Gossip? Lead singer is Beth Ditto. Anyway...they helped the work out today.

Just got news yesterday that my bff from college (18 yrs old in the dorms) Sarita is coming after xmas. She lives in Vegas and we've seen each other here and there. She has 3 kids and her hubby is also working on doctorate degree. Anywho, she texted me and asked for a get away!!! So excited. We already have massages booked for the 29th (not doing taking of the Waters this time). She just to chillax, have some cocktails and not be "mom" for a couple of days. Her kids are too cute, and hubby is a doll...but dad just went to Florida for 2 weeks...mom's turn!

Other than that, we are watching Polar Express today. I'll pop in from work! xooxxooxox

      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.
