WIERD QUESTION COMMENT THINGY>>>
ok so im probably sure ill be the only one on here to say that i still swallow my gum....and its like if i chew gum too long....then my throat throbs like its telling me B*tch swallow me...lol...i know im wierd...but anyway i swallow it....and i have no problems with it but i was wondering if after we have surgery if we would be able to eat sugar free gum??? and i have promised myself if i did eat gum i would have to spit it out before swallowing it....because i heard that if you accidently swallowed it then you would have to go to the hospital and they would have to fi**** out and i dont want that to happen......soOo....do i dare to try...

Wait does anyone else still swallow gum? i dont wanna be the odd man well woman out....its sad because my 3 year old son can chew his gum longer than i can

Topic: RE: Last Dinner???
I did the night before I started my pre op diet. I think I had Chinese Food. Peking Raviolis are my favorite but I can only eat one now before I get in trouble.

Topic: Surgery in 9 days
Well hello to all I am so glad that I found this site by pure mistake. i was looking up things on my doctor and it brought me to this site and have been here daily sence. I am looking forward to my surgery however reality has set in and I am nervous and starting to get stressed out about post op things and even during surgery. None the less I trust my doctor and am so glad that he speaks english well and he is the no nonsense kind of guy. I went and bought all of my vits and protein drinks and all that happy stuff yesterday. Lucky me I was able to find everything in chewable form or the one that dissolves in your mouth.  I am so thankful that the process for me was so quick. I actully went to my doctor for the first time in Sep of 08 then scheduled my surgery for Nov 08 how ever I had to reschedule it for work would be short during the holidays and i felt bad so I rescheduled it to the first part of January. My insurance didnt give me a hastle aproved first try so for me to read some of the struggles people go through I feel so bad.  Well any advice for dropping off a few pounds quickly? I have been up and down with my pre op weight loss and would like to loose a few before I go into the hospital. Well hope all is well with you and I cant wait to be on the loosers bench.

The Blue Rose represents hoping for a miracle, new possibilities or opportunities.

Topic: RE: New OH look

Sound like you have a lot on your mind.  Don't beat yourself up too much.  I have been doing the same thing with food.  Really pigging out.  And the anxity about the two week diet is crushing me.  I can't  imagine if I had the list of things you have on my mind.

Food has always been my comfort, I don't know what two weeks without it will be like.  And I wont go back to smoking.  I've come too far on that one.  I know I'll ******vous wreck without the food I want.  I guess if I can get thru this I can get thru anything.

gotta go

Hugs,

Deb

Yay, Kim!!  So glad that all went well and that you are feeling OK!  You will feel better every day, so try to just take it slow.  Water, walking and pain medicine are your friends!  Congratulations!!

Topic: Anyone with little kids?
Just wondering if anyone else has little kids and how long they plan to have help with them?

I have 2 boys ages 7 and 3.  My DH will be off a week and a half (and my Mom will be with me too) then my Mom for 4 days then my sister for 4 days.  I think that should be good.

I think I would be fine with the 7 year old but the 3 year old still likes to be carried, dressed, changed, ect. 

I also homeschool my 7 year old and think that maybe I can start doing that again in a few days as it is only just sitting there by him?

I have been enjopying the ISopure Fruit punch mixed in with a generic Crystal light Cherry Limneaide and is is really GOOD.

I am having LAP RYN on Jan 28th

Thanks!
Denise
