Well I am on my first business trip since the surgery.  A week in Salt Lake City at a conference.  It has been going OK so far.  I requested a fridge in my room to keep some yogurt and cottage cheese in it.  My meals... well I am doing the best that I can.  Trying to stick to the program.  

It has been difficult to find things to eat.  Luckily, I do not eat much :)  I do not know how I am doing since I have not weighed myself.  Don't plan to weigh in until Friday once I get home.

I want to post a sample menu of what I have eaten:
   BFast:  Blueberries, Raspberries, and Strawberries <1/2c and a mini box of Special K
   Snack:  Cheese Stick and 2 bites of a protein bar
   Lunch:  Chicken Salad
   Snack:  < 1/4c Cashews
   Dinner:  Onion Soup broth, 2 Jumbo Shrimp, and green beans
   Snack:  4 Cheese Crisps

I have told several of my colleagues about my surgery.  They all were so supportive, loving, and caring towards me.  Some noticed a slight change but did not want to say anything.  But once I told them... the joy just emmulated out of them.  They were so happy I was doing this for myself and for my kids.  BTW... my kids are a hit at these conferences.  People are I think drawn to twins.  

Tonight was a free night and I went out to dinner with two of my friends.  We went to a nice restaurant.  I had onion soup broth, a few onions and a tad of cheese slipped in.  No crouton though.  Then I ordered the Crab stuffed Jumbo shrimp.  The crab was good but too rich.... I left that alone and ate two jumbo shrimp and a some green beans for smackeroos!  All I can say is that it was good but thank goodness it goes on the expense account.

I have booked myself a massage for tomorrow night after all the festivities.  I am looking forward to that.  Thursday, when I leave, I fly through Denver and I am going to see a dear friend of mine.  I have not seen him in at least 2 years.  I am excited about that too!  

Otherwise, I will probably post again on Friday after I see how things went.  I just hope at the least I stayed the same.
