Hunting Season - Heads will roll



Recommended Posts

I'm out at din-din w/ the fam, resising the urge to knock back some wine.

Had to bite my tongue earlier when the subject of DH's cousin came up. Future mil said she didn't understand why he chose to be gay. DH just looked at me, like uh-oh and then changed the subject back to football. We're all better off talking about football!!!

I guess not drinking now is a good thing. I'd hate to say something too upsetting.

Well thank you for the warm welcome, KC. It's lovely to meet you.

And yes, I am new here. It's a very nice place. A lovely vibe. No contention.

And thank you for being there to booze it up for the rest of us. I know how tough it must be to carry that weight by yourself. I'll try and assist with that burden when I can. :blushing:

Miss Bandy

Oh - someone to share the burden - I love it - anytime!

My Goodness.....I thought Ms Magu was a lush....but this BethfromVA....wow.

I need to work to catch up with you guys. I think I'll start right now:eek:.

MissBandy

Oh yes you do - you are already behind - this pineapple mojito is lovely. I did buy some Hendrick's today - I just cant decide what t do first

Eh, I dunno... could be fun. Well, for US. Make sure to post what happens should you change your mind. :blushing:

miss bandy - you might be careful - I'm not sure they allow people w/ hamsters at LBT - there are some odd rules you might need to be caught up on.

So let's just have another drink - ok?

I was earlier - way past toasted - not so much anymore sadly - I'll start again if there are other takers though!

I sober too easily!

No drinking for me! I had a glass of wine the other night, but just milk last night. I was craving junk (read as: Ice Cream) so I just drank about 4 glasses of milk to try to end that craving.

It kinda worked. If I'd had it in the house, I'd have eaten some...but it did keep me from going to get some. :biggrin:

(Too bad those suspended can't make a milk/cow joke.)

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
