This is my excitement for the day. Hold on to yourselves......

I found a new small little scrub brush and I got in the shower and cleaned all around the shower door and under it. I'm pooped. Absolutely wore myself out.

I've had a Protein Drink.< /span>

Lunch will be soon and than a Doc appointment with the hubby. Than off to work.

Suzi, it is amazing the things that tickle us!!! I just cooked a healthy and delicious lunch/dinner and am pumped....I have never cooked lamb chops before and they were delicious. I say they because I ate 2, can you tell I need a fill, LOL???

I went to the PS this morning and firmed up dates for arms, boob lift, and TT. He is going to do the arms and breast lift together and that way, If I am unhappy with the results I can get implants when I get my TT 2 months later. I hate to say I am excited to get cut on, but I am!!!

Mimi - I'm so jealous. I want a TT because I could prob get my ins to pay for it... but worried about another surgery, so thinking about smart Lipo, it tightens skin and I've seen the living proof, so If i can get rid of even 1/2 of this for 5k I'll be very happy, no major surgery!

well, going to lunch with new friend, I'm starving from walking, prob going to get a small chicken salad, but I need real food!

working out even more is pushing me over the edge I think

Oh Mimi, how exciting for you. My surgeries are a long ways off. I bet you can't hardly wait. I told hy hubby that I was going to need a TT and he asked me about my breast. I told him by the time I was done, I'd have the breast of an 18 year old. LOL. He's excited. Keep us posted.

Jennifur, if smart Lipo works I say go for it....we have all come to far to get trapped in the old skin suit.

Thanks, Suzie, I will def keep you all informed. I don't know how to take my own pictures but will take my camera with me to the PS and see if they will take them for me.

Jennifur- I'm sure the 1lb will come right off. Maybe your just gaining muscle. W. Well I had a fill yesterday and my mom bought me subway for dinner and now can't have bread any more I used to be able to if a chewed real good so I ended up pbing. I forget that every fill is like learning to eat all over again. I need to go to the gym tomm no matter what. Gotta work in a few hours oh how I hate midnights lol.

I have never watched that show. Biggest Loser. I guess I should give it a try sometime. May inspire me.

Home from work and I swear I clean more there than I do at home. One of my customers came in and brought me a Sonic Rte 44 diet coke. That was so sweet of her. I drank the whole thing. Now I'll be up 2 or 3 times tonight to go pee.

Shalee,

I know its hot there. I like it because when I'm there I'm seeing my sister and her family. I was actually born in a small town outside Bakersfield called Wasco. When my family from Bakersfield comes out here to visit they always talk about all our trees and how green everything is. Yeah well with that green and trees comes lots of bugs and humidity :). I love it though. I just hate being away from the people I love. Bloom where your planted right!!

OMG...was The Biggest Loser on Tonight? Well I missed it. :)

I have been extremely busy today and I did go to the surgeon for my visit and it was great.

I lost 10 lbs and all he said was A plus plus!

I have to go back in two months since the fill did work. He said that I need to lose a certain amount to be before my problems happened.

So, I came home and worked..ugh..need to exercise..but it is ok..went to costco and ran up and down the aisles.

If I get to the target weight it will be a miracle BUT I WILL do it because I really need to get my health back in track :sad:

I will be on and off depending which computer I will be on.

Since, I did not get in all my calories..I was petrified that i would have gained...that has happened in the past

well...I am on my way

My doctor noticed the weight loss and his brother (the other surgeon) was in the hall..and I sang to the tune of I left my heart in San Francisco....I lost my ass on >>>>>>my street name...but the butt has really melted down

Happy and thanks all

Laura:eek:

      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.
