Updates
Simply Apple is the best stuff on earth. Those commercials were convincing, and its good! It tastes like liquid applesauce. We have a new kind of sausage to try a new kind of sausage soup. Chicken Basil Parmesean sausage, with some onion, browned in a pan, with half a can of italian seasoning tomatoes and [...]
Liquids
Woohoo for the liquids. So, I cant take anything cold. And, things taste icky lukewarm. So, I am stuck with semi coolish tea, and water. Fun. Ooo, I also had apple juice, which was yummy. I tried wonton soup broth, that was great, and there is turkey stock in the fridge for me for tomorrow. [...]
IVs and Throwing Up
So, IVs suck. I hate them. I hated being tethered to them, they hurt, they got backed up, and then they really hurt. I felt so free when they took them out of me! More dehydrated, yes, but free! Throwing up. Now, I was lied to! Everyones like “oh, its not so bad.” MY ASS! [...]
im sleeved
typing with my left hand due to my iv. my 2nd iv. Surgery went fine. I’m kinda hungry and really thirsty. I can’t drink anything until tomorrow. A couple of sessions of dry heaves. My belly is yellow and it is 11 pm and I”m making my Mom type this. This is from Mom — [...]
Biggest Loser
No spoilers here :-) So, I dont watch the biggest loser. Or, I didnt watch it this season, but I caught the ending. It was interesting noticing the excess skin on the women. I would have loved to see their stomachs (though, someone elsewhere pointed out that they switch from bras and shorts to shirts [...]
Fat March
In another show that I followed, I looked at Fat March. According to the Wikipedia article, the participants walked 550 miles. The women that completed the march lost about 50 pounds (from 50 to 55), the guys that finished lost 85 or 88 pounds. So, calculated out, women have to walk 11 miles to lose [...]
Scales
So, as you know, I decided not to buy a scale. I dont want to be a scale addict. But, I think that weighing on different scales is going to drive me nuts! Weigh at my parents house after thanksgiving. 320. Weight at my friends house, a week after starting liquids/low calorie. 320. Weigh at [...]
Friday, and start of Saturday
Welcome to all my new readers! Im now part of the “Sassy Ladies of WLS” blog ring. Woohoo! Okay, so, while being around friends will help me to not eat, being around friends with food, not helping. White meat chicken, pepperoni, and crackers. And, the rest of my uber jello. (under 800 calories). So, overall, [...]
One Week to Go!
OKay, so, this blog is all about full disclosure. So, no hiding things from yall (even if you know me in person and can yell at me.) I cheated today. Chicken Quesadilla and a pepperoni pizza. I had been mentally planning this for a few days, knowing I would be driving to the town that [...]
What day is this?
Surgery is in a week and a day. I got an LJ feed, im very happy about it. I have 9 readers already! I really need to up the liquids. If I finish this tea, i’ll have about 40oz? Same as yesterday. This morning it was bad that drinking was causing my stomach to hurt, [...]
