Eatin' Good....Did someone say Snow????
I sure hope not cause, dang, it is cold enough and windy enough and just yucky enough to do it!
My cousin's funeral was today, we only went to the service because the 'Celebration of Life' was going to be where he worked. And since he worked at the Budweiser plant I was pretty sure the 'Celebration' was going to be a drunk fest and I wanted no part of that. They were actually drinking in the church parking lot before the service (from the back of the "Bud" van)! I don't believe there is anything wrong with a drink now and then but I firmly believe in a proper time and place, and this was neither. I was quite shocked and saddened. I thought they should've at least had respect for the Lord's house. sigh...
The damage....
Outta bed....protein coffee
Then FORGOT to eat at all until we got out of the funeral and stopped to run a few errands before we headed home. Finally found a restaurant around 3:30 so of course I was starved....dummy me.
Had about 3 oz of steak and 1/2 baked potato.
Snack....protein bar
Not real sure if I'll eat again or not, not really hungry and I'm awful low on my water. I hate it when I have days like this, but then again, there is always tomorrow.
Deb (Pooh)....really sounds like there is something serious going on here, I know you're having a rough time and I hurt for you. I just pray that it is nerves and nothing more but I am beginning to think there may be something else. Are you going to be able to wait until Friday? I am so worried about you. Let us know if there is anything we can do, k?
Bec....way to go girl! Did you make it out today? It sure was cold and windy and just kept getting colder. I was told that when a dog jumps if you step on their back feet and press firmly they supposedly learn not to jump. I don't know if that will help cause he sounds awful big. You sure are good at spoiling those horses and obviously the pups like you, too. And I agree with Jan, stop flirting with trucker, you little sass you! (smile) Have a good rest of the night.
How did everybody else do today? As you can see, I was not a good RNY'er today.

Outta bed Coffe with creamer
Vitamines and pain pill. Plus that honkin potassium pill cuz i am taking lasixs, I swear that pill could choke a horse even split into LOL.
Breakfast- Nadda
Lunch- tried a strawberry/banana weigh****chers yougurt ate about a 1/4 of it gave rest to Nikki, Least she enjoyed it.
Supper- tried just a teeny tiny peice of crumbled cornbread and just put the bean soup on it no beans , It did ok, But was probably less than a tablespoon.I just can not eat without it coming up even yogurt comes up.Other than that i feel fine.
No protein today can't gag the milk ones down.I knew better when i ordered it and knew i should of ordered the nectar but no had to be bullheaded try something different. So now if i can't trade it off i'll just have to order me some nectar, Waiting on my multivitamines to come in they are on the way just not made it yet. I order from BA .I was 212 then went up to 224 in about 4 days , Called got the ok to take the lasix Fri so today i am down to 218, But it is so irritating to not be eating and gain. I know i really need to push the water harder and i have to do my part to make this work , But it is gets so overwhelming i just wanna scream running down the road pulling out my hair which would not be a good thing cuz by the time i got home i would be bald lol.All i gotta do is bru**** and enough comes out to make a birds nest LOL.But the biotin sure is making my nails grow good lol.
Hubby and Damion Son{jason} went hunting today both got a deer . Jas got a big doe big ole gal and gail got a 7 pt buck. i said he might not be biggest buck you ever got but he is eatable LOL. I love the loins.I am only one here who will eat deer, Jas will make summer sausage and links outta his.Hubby was so cold from being out there he could hardly move. But they are going at it again in the morning. It is good for him and the boys to do things together. And Thank you for reminding me not to speak in haste to my son. We talked he apologized and i accepted but told him i am his mother and he is to NEVER talk to me that way again.
I hope everyone had a good eating day and a wondrful day. Suppose to be a lil warmer tomorrow.I sure hope so i need to go put straw in poochie pup houses. Was just to cold for me today. Take Care and I Wuvs ya'll
Love and Hugs Deb

Hey you...
You make me laugh....even in the middle of all the stuff you are going thru. The vision of you running and pulling your hair and coming back bald made me laugh out loud. I bet somebody will take you up on your protein problem, if you don't get the response here you may have to try the main board. I've seen them post things like this on there.
And I'm proud of you for dealing with Jason the way you did. Especially when you told him he can't talk to you that way. Now if he will start paying, things will be less stressful. Funny that you are the only one who eats the meat, what does Gail do with the rest?
I'm still worried about you're eating, or the lack of. Is your appt next week with your surgery doc or your PCP? I just wonder if your surgeon doesn't need to be aware of what is going on. I just hope it isn't serious.
Love ya and have a great tomorrow!

My appt is with the Dr in Columbia, Where i had the surgery. So i will be telling him about not being able to keep anything down on the 21st. Gail just hunts for sport and i eat the deer LOL. But only the loins. Gail does make summer sausage out of it that is reallly good stuff and he will eat that. I was thinkng about trying a roast in the crockpot and doing it like pulled pork with lots of bbq sauce and see if that would be good. But gotta get things to stay down first, But sure do sound good.I hope someone takes me up on the protein but if not i will just have to go ahead and order the nectar anyhow.Kicking self in butt for not just doing it in the first place LOL.

Deb the next time you have your doc write your script for that Potassium ask them to write it for Potassium CL. It is a clear pliable capsule and it goes down so much easier and dissolves so much faster. I used to have the same problem trying to get it down, I was sure it had some kind of invisible Velcro on it. No matter how I took it the darn thing got stuck. I have no problem with the CL type and if you can't take them at least you can open it and take to powder inside.
Hope that helps,
Connie B.

Hi Peggy,
I'm so sorry about your cousins funeral! That's just too bad. Also sorry it was not the best eating day for you it wasn't as bad a it could of been right? but you are right tomorrow is another day and you can start out new! I love that about the Lord each day we wake up we have another chance for a fresh start!
I had a wonderful eating day! I was blessed to have a friend that cared enough about me to make a good suggestion and I will take her advise and add that second shake EVERY day and not just when I think I have not got enough food protein grams in that will put me at the 80 to 90 grams instead of the 60 grams I had been getting.
This was the day:
30 gram protien shake after exercise
10 grams deli turkey mid afternoon
6 grams string cheese
12 grams coctail shrimp (this goes down soooooo easy)
3 grams bbq chicken piece (not so easy but did ok with it)
30 gram shake before bed
Total of 91 grams .... most I've gotten in to date
all vits and water
I did get out and walk this morning and it was COLD! but only till I got down the drive and up the first hill then it was fine.... but that wind was biting... I had a scarf over my mouth and nose and wore gloves....
wne I came back in I did as much upper body exercise as I could stand about 20 minutes I think.....? with my pie filling cans... hey if you can't eat it you might as well get some use out of them huh? ~tee hee
The dog that jumps on me is the smallest of the bunch a mid size dog... I might try that suggestion if I can get my foot on him before he jumps and already has me a mud ball! The dogs did not join up with me this morning until the last 1/3 of the treck..... I guess they thought it was too cold ~ha
{{{Deb}}} I sure am concerned for you too and pray you will find a good place in your eating and routine...what ever that is and whatever that will take.
Night now and remember tomorrow is a brand new day!

I'm going to have to come up with another name for you....how about SuperSassyWoman? (snicker) You had an amazing day and I love to see that!
I agree with the second shake, I used to do it at bedtime to help quell my sweet tooth then I got out of the habit. I'm sure it would help. I did add a NSA yogurt and 2 slices of cheese tonight but I know it still wasn't enough.
You will probably have to wait until this pup jumps and when he's up is when you step on his hind feet. Since it hurts he should jump back down. You may have to try it a couple of times to see if it works. So you're still going to be dirty for a while. I saw my father in law do it and it worked for him. But I don't like to cause animals pain, so I don't know if I could do it. But he seems to hurting you plus the fact you a ball of dirt when you get home. No fun.
You have a good sleep and love ya.

Boy it was not a good Saturday for me. I have that virus that is going around and couldn't keep anything down...Don't like that at all..
Got my vits in but not all the calicum.
Only got in about 30 oz of fluids and about 40 grs of protein and don't know if that counts as I couldn't keep that down..
Really a miserable day, but I feel better today so hopefully I can do better today. I am afraid of getting dehydrated but when you can't keep it down what are you supposed to do...
I am really confused on the protein thing. The nut at MO bariatrics says not it get in more than 80 grams daily as it can damage your kidneys. And then some doctors recommend 100 gr daily..Don't know what to do..

MAYBE BUT THEN OTHERS SAY MORE...AND THEN ON TOP OF THAT I DO NOT THINK YOU CAN COUNT ALL OF THE PROTEIN THAT YOU EAT IN FOOD,...THERE HAS TO BE A MALABSORBTION OF THE PROTEIN IN FOOD IF THERE IS A MALABSORTION OF THE VITS IN FOOD...SO I WOULD THINK THAT IF YOU WERE GETTING ALL YOUR PROTEIN FROM PROTEIN DRINKS AND WAS GETTING IN A WHOLE BUNCH(I CANT THAT MORE THAN 80 GRAMS ) WILL HARM KIDNEYS...) THEN YOU MIGHT WANT TO JUST DO 80 OR 90 GRAMS A DAY BUT IF YOU WILL RESEARCH THE AMOUNT OF PROTEIN YOU TAKE IN AND WHAT THE SIDE EFFECTS WOULD BE ....I CANT FIND THAT IT AFFECTS YOUR KIDNEYS...DONT KNOW WHERE SOME OF THE NUTS. GET THEIR INFO SINCE I KNOW THEY HAVE TO ALL STUDY THE SAME THINGS LOL...AND ALL OF THEM CLASSIFY THEMSELFS AS EXPERTS.
