  1. I just tried a new shake its so good!!! 6oz soy milk 1/3 frozen banana 2 scoops chocolate Protein 2 tablespoons Peanut Butter i also threw in a scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt b/c i like ita little thicker. its sooooo good and i dont even like peanut butter! haha. something different than the plain ones ive been having. also u should peel the banana before u freeze it. its kinda hard to peel when its frozen
  2. paul... i have heard that some cant handle beer but i can just fine! ive had no problems with it. also hard alcohol goes down great i just went to vegas a couple weeks ago and all i did was drink there and it was ok. the only thing i stopped taking was shots. because i dont have much food to soak up alcohol i drink a lot slower!
  3. I was at a party at a friends and this guy and i were flirting-- he is actually pretty hott. and i have this friend that is PERFECT (she was in a bikini 2 weeks after having her kid!) and we were drinking a lot lol and he goes "You are so gorgeous, if you were the same size as jaclyn i would F*ck you right now" I really didnt know what to say?? compliment? insult??? i laugh at it now...
  4. Is this carbonated? Has anyone had it and been ok? I havent tried ANYTHING carbonated yet, but I am going to a Mariners baseball game next weekend, just wondering if this is something I can drink since I havent tried beer....let me know if u have tried and whether u had problems or not. I mean, they serve wine at the game but I would just feel weird. lol
  5. SO i tried cheating. i know...horrible. But anyway i took 2 bites of chicken (i am on liquids/mush) and OH WOW it was the MOST HORRIBLE PAIN i have ever had. i thought i was going to have a heart attack! lol I was driving and I swore it was going to get caught and I would have to try and give myself the heimlick manuever!! it was horrible. Then I puked it up. ew. I wont ever cheat again and I dont recommend it!
  6. Going to my psych eval was weird but kinda fun. The doc ended up thinking i am spoiled and pretty conceited but whatever. I love myself and I am not ashamed of it. I just told him when I wanted something I couldnt have I would look forward to the end result.
  7. Being in Radiology we have to move a lot of patients around and lift them etc. I told my instructor that I had surgery not what kind though. It is no ones business if I dont want to tell them. And when they asked what kind i just said "just surgery" they got the hint and said "say no more" . I dont see how they could kick u out of the program, I mean what if you had to have emergency surgery of some sort? Anyway, good luck!!!
  8. Hey I was kinda in the same situation. I am in Radiology school so I had to go to my clinicals 4 days after surgery on a Monday. It was rough but I made it thru the whole day. Though Tuesday the techs sent me home cuz they said I looked so miserable. they gave me 2 days off and I went back fine on Thursday. You will be tired but probably be able to make it!
  9. i had a really rough preop diet as well. basically water, crystal light, jello, popcicles and broth. it sucks. still doing it after the surgery.,, BUT i was pretty proud when the doc told me how good and soft and easy to work with my liver was, i was glad i stuck to it (OK well i cheated ONCe and ate at a wedding and had 2 beers but thats it it will be worth it in the end!!
  10. i am so glad this was posted. i feel like i could eat anything and im 2 weeks out. i wasnt sure if that was normal or because i dont have my restriction yet. i dont really eat much cuz im supposed to be on a liquid diet still for 2 more weeks. but i dont freak if i get some bites of food with my soup either. im glad its normal.
  11. yeah i get soup at work everyday and no one even notices that i just eat the brothy part!!!
  12. i have had the powder in the bag. the 1st time i had it was disgusting. i mixed it with water and its hard to mix throughly. now i mix it in my magic bullet and its pretty good. i do vanilla with orange juice its so good like a cream sicle!
  13. i had a raspberry mocha frapp LIGHT yesterday it was SO GOOD. mmm. its only 160 cal.
  14. i stayed over night. cant imagine it any other way. my nurses were amazing.
  15. alwaysforme.com torrid.com has cute ones and cute clothes!
