 ... as of 10:39PM 12/26/2009 ... 45 pounds lost!

 Well, I'm on my 8th day post surgery ... things are are quite good ... little to no pain; walking and ankle alphabets daily; bored out of my mind with liquids; and 40 lbs off (since two weeks prior to surgery)! Good stuff!!!!

Granted it's all water weight ... but it's encouraging nonetheless!  25 lbs. :D Thank GOD for my NUT saying that I could have an ounce of Romano or Parmesan when in need! Woot!

JEFF update...OKAY, um ... thank GOD for sugar free Jello and SF Popsicles and low sodium beef broth with pepper!!!!! :D

Okay I made it to Day 3 ... I discovered that if I SHOCK my taste buds with drastically varied flavors and temperatures throughout the day that I am so much better off ...

Breakfast ... Chocolate UnJury protein shake w. ice crushed to froth
Snack ... CarbSmart Yogurt
Free ... SF Jello
L ... Chicken Protein Broth by UnJury
S ... Beef Broth with black pepper
V ... Vanilla UnJury protein shake
F ... SF Popsicles
D ... Chocolate UnJury protein shake w. ice crushed to froth
S ... Beef Broth with lots of black pepper

4 liters of VERY-varied Crystal Light flavors throughout the day!

 Oy! So I had no idea how much I have relied on food to quell boredom (all of my life, I guess) ... until TODAY! I have caught myself so many times over the last 24 hours thinking that I was "hungry?!" Well, after analyzing the situation ... I realized that my stomach was still feeling full from my drinks and broth! What the heck?!?!?!? I can't wait to deal with something/anything emotional coming up! OY!
