Oh yeah Plain, he was HUGE to me, but overall pretty small for a tarantula. I would say from one of the front legs to one of the rear ones, he was 2.5"-3.0".

Tarantulas, are kind of like crabs tho, they shed their exo-skeleton or some such thing, they don't just grow......and it usually lifts off as a whole piece----she said she would keep it and show me...I am so thrilled--NOT!

Fantastic news, Fanny! I'm so glad everything went well. Been thinking of you all week.

Finally finished the blankets that I was working on. I ended up with THREE! The deadline is this afternoon so they can get distributed next week. I've decided to keep making blankets all year for this project. I think it's important. These are our Veterans and they've been institutionalized and forgotten by whatever family they have left. There are a few that have active family but most don't. It's sad. Making a few blankets costs me nothing compared to what they've been thru.

It's pouring rain here. We had snow and freezing temps earlier in the week. Snow is all gone now with the rain. We got down to 19 degrees, which hasn't happened in a few years. The snow lasted a few days b/c once it stopped snowing, it FROZE! Now with the warmer rain, all gone!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!

Hi there everyone :thumbup: I'm two weeks post op and doing great. If anyone wants to see the photos, they're in a private album on my profile - PM me if you want to be on my contacts list :ohmy:

Warning: They are pretty graphic and not very modest or very flattering *blush*. I was after the "brutally honest" look in these pics, not sexy poses/lighting...

In the mean time, this is the clothed result, from my Mother's 70th birthday party on Saturday night (12 days post op).

Well it's 11pm on Christmas Eve for me and I just wanted to wish all our thread posters a very Merry Christmas, as I probably won't be online tomorrow.

I hope you all have a wonderful day!

      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.
