Being Prepared

Jan 26, 2010

I'm beginning to realize how important it is to being prepared, esp when it comes to food.

I have not had the surgery yet but I'm readjusting. Usually I go home for lunch and eat something healthy. Well yesterday that did not happen. I had a class outside of my work. When it came time for lunch I had a lot of errands to run and before I knew it, it was time for me to go back to class. Of course I do what every "typical" person does and go by McD's lol
I needed something fast that I could eat on the way to class (b/c we can't eat in class). So I got a large order of fries and a $1 Sweet Tea. I ate all the fries but only had half of the tea.

I started thinking, THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!! You will NOT be able to do this after surgery! I felt a little ashamed of myself, but I didn't beat me up too bad The moral of the story: Be Prepared! Plan Ahead! Think of EVERYTHING Imaginable!
And for ME to practice what I preach!

DONE

Jan 19, 2010

Today I completed my last task, the Nut appt. It was very informative. I picked up some techniques about yogurt and protein. I was most impress that I can go back to the Nut whenever I wanted to after surgery. That is soooo COOL!

Tomorrow I will make the call to set up the last appt with the surgeon for a DATE . I still feel like I have a lot of work to do, esp in the exercise dept. I have started walking via the Walk at Home program with Jane Sansone (EOD on Cox). I can't beat myself up over it. I am doing my best!

Until my next entry....

Two down and 1 to go

Jan 14, 2010

AWWWWW, I just finished my Psych Eval! It went great! I even wanted to stay longer. I also had my FIRST ultrasound (no I don't have kids). That was a little time consuming. The Tech took a lot of photos; I'm not sure if that's good or bad. Now that I have knocked those 2 items out, I still have my Nut appt on Tues.

I getting excited, but not until I hear my surgeon tell me a date.

Taking Baby Steps

Jan 12, 2010

Today I started a walking program thanks to FreeZone on EOD (Health/Fitness). According to this Jane person, I walked a mile in about 20min. Since Saturday, I have had only 8cups of Sweet tea (that's AMAZING for me; usually 8 cups/day). I have also cut out snacking between meals, eating until I'm satisfied, doing my best not to drink while eating. I drink my protein shakes for breakfast, take VitD, 1 Flinestone vitamin. I feel good about my progress! WooooHooo!

I'm Disappointed in ME!

Jan 05, 2010

Could this be possible? I had signed up to take a FREE exercise class and didn't attend (due to "female issues").  I watched Biggest Loser last night and started feeling down on myself. I shouldn't have let a my "female issue" stand in my way of working out. Because once I have the surgery, not exercising isnt an option!

Why am I beating myself up and I haven't had the surgery yet? Or could it be my "female issues" messing with me?! If I'm like this now, LAAAWWWWDDD I hate to see what's it going to be like later on in life. I'm not like this one bit!

I thought I would do something different for a picture. Something a little motivating. The one I wanted to use wasn't in the appropriate format. Anyway, I like it! That is what counts!
