Topic: RE: Pump me up-I am freaking
lisa...it wouldn't be normal if you were not a bit anxious about the surgery. it's natural.
now....just close your eyes and picture yourself the way you want to look m (i'm sure your beautiful now too), and think about that it will not be long before you achieve that goal! or YOUR goal.
try and relax and enjoy all the pleasant thoughts of the future since you'll most likely be adding another 25 years to your life!
begin preparing for when you get home. look at the main board and check out recipes and think about what you'll be eating and what to have in the house. take this time to get your exercise plan together!
and most of all best of luck to you....you'll do wonderful!
Topic: RE: get ready for anything and everything
frank,
i'm so sorry you are having some problems. i was the exact same way at about 8 weeks out. i could eat nothing. it was so bad that frankly...(no pun intended) didn't want to eat at all.
slowly i found a few things i could eat. and, now, really i can eat just about anything i want. i jus****ch it.
i never took protein shakes, bars or instant meals. the fact that you have the runs all the time is not really great.
can you list some of things you are able to tolerate???
maybe it's time to change nuts...or get some diet input????
