Oh and it was freaking packed Tuesday when I saw the nutritionist.

I have my home sleep study set for November 4th and its two nights. If it's negative I'm good to go for surgery Thanksgiving week. If it's positive we are going to be really pushing getting it done by December 31st

Probably not...

I was just told no juice as well. Empty calories and too much sugar. However, I got a sample of the orange creamcicle protein drink they have. I'm going to drink it tomorrow for breakfast.

I know I'm female but I was just talking about this with my friend this weekend as the reason I can't wear head bands lol!

The interwebz. Unjury.com

Unjury chicken flavored protein powder is nice. It just has to be below 140 degrees or it gets clumpy.

I weighed myself Sunday I was 290. Today I was 287. Lol.

That's a great idea!!

Sometimes we get sooooo caught up in what we think is a magic cure and when it turns out it doesn't work we can feel hopeless and suicidal like with antidepressants. I found it fascinating that a lot of people with Schizophrenia with hearing voices will commit suicide after they are medicated due to missing the voices. Other people antidepressants can clear their minds enough to decide on suicide and make them impulsive. That's the theory in my field though. I can totally see someone being so unhappy they think it's related to their weight. They get the surgery and lose weight and are still unhappy. That can definitely lead to suicide.

This whole Birth control thing is reeeally stressing me out. Aren't you more fertile after weight loss? I can't have a baby. I just can't. And not after WLS. I hear of people on here getting pregnant a few months out from surgery.

Try simple brains tasks every day. In the mental health profession that's our suggestion. That's the best thing you can do for present and future brain health. But definitely could be nutrient related or lack of calories. When I'm hungry I don't even know my own name sometimes. Like if my clients name is Sara I'll be like "hi I'm Sara" then they are like "cool so am I" then I'm like no wait it's Tracy lol. Then they lose confidence in me and want to leave lol.

I'm going to Cheesecake Factory the night before my liquid diet. It's already planned lol. That slice of cheesecake is mine.

Anyone have any good baby food ideas? Lol. My nutritionist suggested that if I struggle with other things in the pureed stage. Can I make my own? Like carrots and sweet potatoes and stuff?

So overwhelmed by the nutritionist appointment and fighting with the sleep study place and come to find out I have to wait until the first week of November to just have my home sleep study. Then if I have sleep apnea I have to have a lab study and who knows how long that will take and then wear my cpap for 30 days before surgery. I'll be lucky if we make it to the end of the year. Unless I don't have sleep apnea then everything is ok and all this stress is for nothing lol. Oh and all those Protein shakes I have and like (premiere protein), can't use them pre op because she wants me to have 5 shakes a day and they have too much protein in those shakes. Theirs are waaaay too expensive to buy. I'm gonna have to figure some thing out. Thoughts on lower Protein Shakes?

God I need a good replacement for pizza. Pizza has been my weakness this whole pre op process.

OMG you poor thing.

I meet with the nutritionist today too.

Ed Couch: What the hell's this? Evelyn Couch: That's a low cholesterol meal. Happy Valentine's. Ed Couch: God! Are you trying to kill me? Evelyn Couch: If I was gonna kill you, I'd use my hands.

I was so upset I was in too much pain to get it put in. I'm weak.

I saw your zoo pics.

I married the guy I was in a long distance relationship with.

Great idea!

Those heparin shots cause HUGE bruises on my stomach.

Coneys are smaller than regular hot dogs.
