Twilight Zone/LD/Ice Cream

I am being weird! I start the LD tomorrow and I am so sick of eating!  I have been having my last meals, snacks and drinks for the last three MONTHS!!!   However for some reason I am just tossing ice cream around in my head.  I have driven to the store to buy it and then realize I really am so full and I don't want it.  But then I think, this is my last chance.  OMGosh...no wonder I am where I am today!  I'm driving myself nutty!  I keep looking at the clock thinking to myself, I better hurry and do it if I'm going to and then I think, WHATEVER....you've had enough in the past  for three people in a lifetime! You may be thinking, she's bored...go do something!  I'm NOT bored.  I have four kids and a husband, not to mention two doggies and a messy house.  I have been shuttling kids all over!    Since Wed. night when I went shopping for my LD I have felt like I'm living in the twilight zone.  It's weird.  Kinda like when you have your first baby and you wonder if you'll ever get to read the paper in peace again.  This WLS journey is just like a  baby right now!    Hey...thanks for listening folks!  

You are so cute and funny and NORMAL!   I definitely did the last meal thing - mainly, snow crab legs.  I ate enough to stuff a polar bear!  And then, I ate some more.  Funny I didn't make myself sick!   So I'm going to ask the question.  What kind did you buy?  and... did you eat it? Good thing you're full and sick of eating.  The LD will be LIBERATING!!!   And soon, you'll make the sister tri-fecta complete!  YAY YOU!!!  Just don'****ch tv this weekend.  I hear they're playing every restaurant, fast-food and junk food commercial ever shot.   

I drove off without buying it...I STILL have time!!!!  Wait, maybe snow crab legs sound good too.....do I have time?  Heee, heeee, heee!  So...I think I'll go to bed and watch a movie with my hubby!!!!   Then these last few hours will be OVER!  OMGosh I'm a nut!     Thanks for your kind words!   Stuff a polar bear...where do you think of all these things? Ta, Ta

doooodooodooodoooodoooo --- twang!!!!  Now that damn twilight song is in my head!!!! We were so busy the night before my surgery we didn't go out....and you can have stuff again -- just limited.  And the stuff you find you can't eat -- once you get sick off it, you won't want it again.    You're almost there!!!!  10 fricking days!!! OMG!!!!  Can't wait to watch you shrink!!! XXOO

Will you sing that tomorrow morning Barb?  dooooodoooodoooo......twang!    Too funny!    

HUGS LISA!

You were brave enough to post this - but let me tell you that you are not the only one thinking these things. 

See you tomorrow morning - Linda

 

Thanks for the huggies Linda!  :O)     Can't wait to see you too tomorrow morning!  Just think.....you are almost to this spot!  Whooo Hoooo!  Even though our surgeries are not the same day....  they are close enough to be surgery sisters!  :O)    

Lisa - you know what, me too! Man, I almost thought I was pregnant given the strange cravings and food choices for pete's sake. But it's got to be normal prior to surgery. It's the thought of deprivation I suppose. But, you're day is almost here. And we'll be here for you the next 10 days as your LD goes along. Now, careful on the caffeine in the morning since that stimulates hunger... Have a peaceful rest tonight Lisa & just remember how full you are. Tomorrow will be a great day.

Thanks a ton!  I tell you...the sense of humor you all have is so fun!     I ate a bowl of cheerios and had an orange!   However, I dozed off, woke up and now I realize I still have 1/2 hour.  Good Grief!  I can't wait for the LD to start.  I will love not having many options!  Whoo whoo!!!! Amy- Good reminder on the caffine stimulating hunger.  I will be careful.  :O)    Peace (I like that word right now.)  Peace it is! Good night and sleep tight!  :O)

Whooohooo....let the weight loss begin!!!!!  I think this is where a lot of my motivation comes from now.  I keep thinking about how much I'm going to lose during the LD, even if it's just 10 lbs, but hey that's 10 less that i have to lose AFTER surgery!  It gets easier as your  stomach "shrinks" from lack of solids....even if it's just mentally.  A glass of milk will now satisfy me.  Crazy huh?  Just last weekend I was eating the tremendous twelve at Perkins.  Good luck with everything and I pray that everything goes well for you. You're going to do so great!!!  It's down to DAYS before surgery, how excited are you?????  wow!
