OK...here is my story!

B= Kashi Go Lean Cereal (:biggrin: @ Michelle)

S=FUDGE FUDGE AND MORE FUDGE

L=Lean Pocket and FUDGE FUDGE AND MORE FUDGE.

Do you see a pattern. It is easier at home, sure there are "craptations" but there is no FUDGE...because I ate it all!

Someone keeps shrinking my jeans. At this rate, I wont be able to wash my jeans until the middle of Jan!

Janie~ Much love sister...we are thinking about you!

Just checking in for news on Jane.....be ok Jane, we are worried about you!

Weather here is clearing, it is cold. Manda is having to work today, they are doing the needy family deliveries since they were snowed out of doing so the other day. I have slippers to buy for my parents from my brother, to go with the rest of the things I got for them yesterday.

Also have to take Mom in to exchange Manda's mattress topper. She bought it before Manda made the decision to leave, so she had a King size bed. Now she has a full (double) size------so it needs to be exchanged, and will sure be easier now than following Christmas.

Kinsey is finishing up lunch, then we are going to vaccum and go on in to town and finish up our stuff. I do the main floor, and she uses the hand vac around the wood box! I have my own little slave!!!

Went to chinese with DS, DIL, DGS, DD, and DGD last night---oh yeah and Rick! Then we come back here and the kids ran wild. OMG!

Finally said something to my DIL about the potty training. He asks to go especially when he sees Kinsey go off in the bathroom! He had poopy pants, and she ask me if I had any diapers. I told her I had girls pull ups, but if she wasn't going to bother potty training him, she was going to have to start carrying the diaper bag again, that is was not OUR place to buy him diapers! She said my son is embarrassed to be carrying the diaper bag with him being so big. I just looked her in the eye, and did the one eye brow raised thing like....well???? does that tell you something???? Finally I said well then I guess HE needs to train him! She tells my MIL they don't want to because they like having him as their baby. Puhleeeze!

Well my Mom is ready to go, so guess I will get it done. I have a throbbing headache, and feel like my face is fatter than it was over 100 pounds ago. I have hives on the back of my neck,and on my inner thighs. This is REALLY not what I want to be doing!

BBL~~~

I just talked to Jane. She still does not know anything yet and has not seen her doctor today yet either. If I hear anything, I will be sure to let you all know.

OMG 28 min to go...I am stuffed up and dying! I can't stand my nose...it is burning w/ each breath! OK 27 min to go. Then two glorious weeks off!

I am glad Jane checked in. This totally sucks not knowing.

MY next door neighbor had a stroke yesterday. He is 46 (on Xmas eve), eats very healthy and exercises ALL THE TIME. I've known him for 28 years, actually he went out w/ my mom for 6 years! I feel bad for him. Going to feed his dog after school. He lives alone and that is scary...to be alone.

OK 25 min...I may be back...typing on LBT makes the time fly by! See only 24 min to go!

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
