Topic: RE: uh oh! i lost my packet! CRAP!
Tamilynn -
Hope you found your info or at least were able to get another copy of it this morning. How frustrating - I know how it is to think you have everything where you can immediately put your fingers on it and when you go to get it someone has moved it. I am slightly "anal" about organizing things and it irritates me when someone messes with my system! (Even if it's my husband with good intentions of cleaning up!) RELAX, TAKE A DEEP BREATH, and IT WILL BE FINE!

I get the one from Wally World it is not to bad I like the vanilla beacuse you can add sf pudding to it. With 2 servings you get about 50 gr of protein. It is in a big container and is about 15 bucks.

Topic: WLS in 3 days
I am having WLS on April 3rd. This will be a new chapter in my life. I believe in multipul lives, all in the same lifetime! I lived my 20's, I lived my 30's, I lived my 40's, and now I'm going to live my skinny 50's! Or at least slinder. My husband says he is going to be jelous. But I told him, "If I was going to leave you, I would have left years ago." I live my support group. My daughter and son-in-law have both had WLS... I'm sure they will make sure I drink enough fluids.

Topic: RE: Liquid Diet Day 5
I'm actually doing okay with the sweets. I'm still getting the hungry feeling in my stomach everyday. I'm not sure what the calorie count is but I'm doing 5 Carnation Instant Breakfast a day, jello, broth (which tastes gross!) and protein supplements. I actually cheated tonight and ate a piece of low fat cheese. I still have 6 days to go. I just hope I can get that cheeseburger out of my head!!!!
Topic: RE: 2 Days Pre op
Congrats Laura! Let me know how it all goes. I'll be thinking of you.
I opted to go home the same day as surgery. Get lots of rest. The heating pad and medications helped a lot for me.
