Topic: RE: thinking about easter....
Easter won't be a tough one for me - it's not as much of an "eating" holiday around my house like Thanksgiving or Christmas. I will miss the Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs, though...they are my favorite, but I haven't had one yet this year!
Topic: thinking about easter....
for those of you having surgery before easter or who will be on liquid diets for easter.... have you given any thought about what you will do / eat so as not get left out of the festivites.
i will be on full liquids... not sure if i will be too hungry at less than a week out.. but i am nervous just the same. my doc required one month full liquids so i guess i will probably have some kind of pureed soup...
Topic: I'm doing the Truffle Shuffle!
LOL!
ok so i got my new excersize videos today. i ordered them off line after seeing a post about them on the rny board. it is ZUMBA. it is excersize but latin dance moves so its pretty fun.
i hope this excersizing thing gets easier cause i so felt like i was doing the "truffle Shuffle" for sure. Thank goodness it was just me in the livingroom casue even i couldnt control the laughter!
ooohhh if i only took video i would have you all in stiches of laughter! I used to have some moves but this extra weight really does get in the way.

Topic: RE: Mine is April 7th - Surprisingly excited
Congrats! i cant beleive it its like 3 weeks away! to me it seems like everything is going so fast! I hear ya with the job thing... as a manager for home depot we are about to enter in our bread and butter season. I know they are all probably giving me the stink eye and thinking to themselves "she cant wait till fall?" i just look at it this was... they wouldnt make someone needing heart surgery wait till fall! so im over it.. i told them last week. my boss acted happy for me, but i know he was secretly crapping himself. 
lol.

Topic: RE: is anyone else mourning food?
I'm with both of you! I know I've gained at least 5 pounds since receiving my surgery date! I keep making the excuse that I need that piece of chocolate cake because I'll never be able to eat it again. Or the Girl Scout cookies, the bacon, etc. So, I've made a commitment to myself to start a low-fat diet tomorrow, exactly 1 month before surgery, so that when I start my liquid diet 1 week before surgery, I won't have such a tough time with cravings. Or so I'm hoping! Good luck to all of us! Ladies, no more of this...
