August Sleevers?! Where Ya's At?

[jorsea 54]

So my husband decided today easy day to start liquid Protein diet. I said.Dr, does not require me to do pre OP diet. He said, give yourself the best and healthiest chance of success. Grrr, dang men. Hate it that in my heart I know he's right but I've lost 70+ preop already. I was thinking id do 5 day but nope he figures 21 days. Ugh, I honestly didn't think he was really paying attention to what was required and what wasn't. So after many hours of being tired and hungry....it's time for bed. I had a coffee, Greek yogurt 9gr protein, and two shakes worth 27 & 24 gr protein each. Total calories 90,130,150....not enough for me. I hope the dictator lightens up tomorrow. LoL. I do love him, and actually after all the whining know he's just wanting me to be healthy.

I have trouble with that . This is your journey, not his.....maybe it's just me.

I think when your family watches you struggle, complain,cry and try - try again they are living this journey with you. No doubt he means well and wants to help and it sounds like you've decided to humor him as well as do yourself a favor. Best wishes to both of you. I know one of my biggest motivators is the possible enjoyment my weight loss could bring for both my husband and I

Morning sleevers, just seven days before we'll begin adding to the pool of post-op stories. I bought my plane tickets yesterday! Speaking of clothes shopping, depending on how fast we move through our sizes on our way down we should have a good supply of clothing to re-home with a list as large as ours. Is anyone planning on posting the things they outgrow? I know some of us may have family or friends that will inherit our goods. When I get beyond a size I'll post pics...uhm, somewhere, of what I have. I'd love to recycle them to my sleeve sisters! I also bought large mixed lots of ladies clothes on e-bay and got a whole new wardrobe a few years back for a reasonable/inexpensive price, another option. When in Saskatoon I always end up in thrift stores or Plato's Closet which is my 15 year old's favorite for name brand second hand. What can I say, I'm cheap.

Not cheap, thrifty! Second-hand is my favorite way to go!

Ya know, when the "petite" (5 footers lol) girls are ready I will pass over some nice not your daughters jeans I just received yesterday. I had to buy them so I have stuff to wear at a conference and Disney in a couple of weeks, but then I get sleeved and likely won't wear them out . They're far too nice not to pass to a friend!
