I have decided that it is my time to do the 5 day pouch test.  I have gone several weeks with little or no weight loss and I want to get a jump start!  I also plan to start back at the gym, I know this cannot be the end of the loss for me, it just is going to take more work then before I'm afraid!  I do feel like I have more energy this week, probably because I am over my period, not sure what I am going to do about the problem of exhaustion for an entire week or more each month, but I will probably need to see the doctor since my labs are all A-OK!  

And several hours later at 4:30 in the afternoon . . . I don't know why I even started the pouch test, I have proven over and over and over again that I cannot diet and when I start restricting my eating in this way, my brain says "diet".  So . . .I am no longer doing the pouch test or any other form of dieting, I chose to have surgery to get away from my constant start/stop dieting! So what will I do about my stall?? I will hit the gym again and continue . . . .I need to exercise, I need to exercise, I need to exercise, I need to exercise . . . it will eventually sink in!

Well only 3 more days until I leave for San Antonio - very excited!!  I have spring fever so this will probably not help, but it will be so nice to be in the warm weather!  My weight has not budged for the last two weeks!!  I need to remember to be patient, but it's so hard sometimes!  Even though my weight has not gone down I do feel a difference in my clothes, so that is a plus!  This last week everyone has commented on my weight loss, which is nice, but I keep thinking yeah but I haven't lost any for a couple of weeks!  Anyways . . . not much to report, but I do need to keep this up to date so there it is . . .
