Good Morning Check In

Karen, Hello hun ~Hugs~ Yeah I am in a smaller office as well but it just feel like some are more friendly now but then again, like the others said above that I am more outgoing then before so that might be it. Well I am the really only heavy person here and I am glad for that as I do not want to deal with the jealoulsy thing. Most all my friends (some heavy some not) have been awesome with my weight loss and very supportive. Those are the true friends. If I stop myself from having something then it seems that the next day I crave it, weird but getting better. Thanks for posting hun ~Hugs~ Debra P

Thanks for the advice. I actually ordered a set of different ones to try out...ironically I ended up not making it out to lunch today, so I had a Fuzzy Navel Nectar and thought it was absolutely doable. Also had one of my Stallone puddings...it was passable, may taste better post-op! I also had thought of the Isopure for the all-liquids-for-48-hours phase...we have a GNC by my apartment, so I'll be popping in there soon. Thanks, and take care! Mary Mc

Mary, I found I did not like the fuzzy navel but so many do, so I think it just must be me. I can not stand to be able to taste any of the protein taste in these drinks. I carry a protein bar with me that I got from my surgeons office just in case I miss a meal rather then do the drinks any more. yes that Isopure stuff is good but it really has to be very cool and over a lot of ice for me. It really helps with keeping your protein up the days before and right after surgery. Take care ~Hugs~ Debra P

Debra, Hi!!! Yes, I have noticed a difference in a couple of people. I know that I've been happier and smiling more so there are a few people hear that it could be because of that, BUT, there are definately 2 men in particular, who barely ever acknowledged my presence now they go out of there way to stop and talk....ask me how I am. I'm even taken back by one of them asking me if my sex life has improved. YUCK!! Anyway......I'm handling it. Have a great day. Talk to you soon. Janean

Janean, Hello hun ~hugs~ Yeah see that is weird also, if you worked there all along and someone acts differently after you lose some weight. I know smiling more sure helps with people feeling they can chat with ya. I hope with the one guy you are friends because I would be ticked off if he asked me that and did not even know me. Wow I would have some choice words for that guy. Well take care hun and thanks for answering. ~hugs~ Debra P

Hiya Debra and all! I haven't had any such occurrences yet, but I'm sure that down the road this will be inevitable. How I would handle it? Not a clue... Anyhow...hope everyone has had a marvelous day so far...it is another GOOOORRRGEEOOOUUUSSS day! Tomorrow's my 45th birthday--YIKES!!! getting old Hope it is very nice day too! Take care and god bless! Dolly

Dolly, HEY HAPPY BIRTHDAY hun ~hugs~ Well that is good that you have not met anyone like that yet... and well when/if ya do then you will remember this post and just shrug it off. Well enjoy your day hun and thanks for posting ~hugs~ Debra P

Just want it to say hello.....I read all your posts and think you are a great and very positive person. Even though I don't write much I enjoyed reading what you write. Personall I lost 42 pounds, slow,but what what can I do.........i hate the protein........lol have agreat weekend !!!!! Maria

Maria, Hello hun ~Hugs~ so glad you came out of lurking and say hello....THANK you for your kind words Hey losing weight is losing weight right? All I know if as long as it is moving DOWN that is a good thing in my book. Congrats on your 42 lbs lost forever! Have you tried samples of different powders? I know I am VERY picky when it comes to shakes and all but I have found some that are ok. I just can not do the same ones every day! Well I wish you the very best hun and keep posting ~hugs~ Thanks again and take care Debra P
