Good to know about those chicken sticks but I can't get over the fact that they smell like cat food.  Sorry...  LOL

 For some reason I have been completely off plan lately and it's killing me.  I have slacked off on going to the gym (3 weeks since I have even stepped foot in the gym) and not even working out at home.  My eating habits have been atrocious.  I have been keeping a food log and all that is doing is making me feel worse about the choices I am making and making me eat more carbs.  My protein goal hasn't even been close to being met.  I think my problem is that I want the salt & vinegar chips and knowing that I can handle them "justifies" it in my mind that I can have some.  Then, when I have "some", I end up having them "all".  

I am absolutely frustrated that I am wearing approximately the same size top that I have always worn but my bottom half has shrunk about 4-6 sizes.  I am also frustrated that I haven't budged a pant size in about 6 weeks.  These 16's are too big but 14's are way too small.  I can shimmy into them and they are ok in the waist but I end up with super muffin top and camel toe (TMI, I know...) because of the excess skin in my middle.  My little sister and I are now the same pant size and a lot of my clothes have been "disappearing" into her drawers because A) she "borrows" them or B) my mom does laundry and thinks they are hers.  So, the fact that I want to get comfortably into that size 14 for my own satisfaction and for the fact that I don't want anymore clothing mix-ups, I want to get back on the wagon.  Any help and/or suggestions and/or words of encouragement would greatly help!!  

 Absolutely saving (wishing/hoping) for new magnificient, glorious boobs.  I want a "Mommy Makeover".  Tummy tuck, lipo, and boobs.  Although, depending on how much I really lose and how it all shifts I may go for a full body lift and new boobs.  DEFINITELY new boobs...

 Ran errands all day today too but...

B: 2 mini Babybel cheeses
S: *no morning snack*
L: 1/3 can of tuna mixed with mayo and salsa
S: Medium Dunkin Donuts Caramel Swirl iced latte
D: Roasted chicken and veg (not sure what yet...)

 WOW!  You are so daring to wear that suit and I absolutely LOOOOOOOVE it!  The suit is amazing and I love that you found one to show off your ink!  

 I was on the road all day so I didn't really get 3 meals but what I did eat was:

2 sausage links
Venti Starbucks Iced Skinny Caramel Macchiato
1 Ritz Cheddar Cheese Crackerful
6" roast beef Subway flatbread with most of the bread removed
bottle of water

 If you have a smartphone you can download a CardioTracker app, count your steps, calories and mileage, track your route and remind you to workout.  I like it because I play my music through my phone and count my steps.

 So, I just started tracking calories and stuff on MyFitnessPal again and I find it odd that my whole calorie count of the day is approximately 700-900 calories and before surgery I was hard pressed to keep it under 2,000.  Kinda puts everything in perspective of what junk I was putting into my body and now what good things I need to put into my body.

NSV #1) My man bought me a new ring (and it's gorgeousssssss....) and I wore it right out of the store!!!  No need to send it out to be sized!!!!

NSV #2) Trading clothes!  Went out with one of my girlfriends last night and I am now small enough that I could pick about 8 different things out of her closet and see what looked best on me!  

All these things make me beam on the inside and outside and make me puff out my chest a little more!  I love it!  Just one more perk!!

 That salad sounds absolutely delicious!  *jealousssss*  LOL

 I liked the Unjury chicken broth.  I am not a big sweets person and it was a welcome relief after all the popsicles, Jell-O's, Crystal Lights, and super duper chocolatey chocolate or sweet vanilla protein shakes.

 I have been sleeved since January 09, 2012.
