There is no need to look back unless you plan on going that way!

That is a HUGE feat I can't even imagine being able to beat (I have made LOTS of cookies and therefore had LOTS of cookie dough.. but not nearly as much as in the past).
I know the reason I have been eating the cookie stuff is because of life stress... with everything you have going on I that much more impressed with your success over the finger licking!!
Hope Dartmouth can find out whats going on with Hubs and get him fixed up!! They are working on fixing my hubs up too so I understand how the distance blows, but hopefully in the end it will all be worth it!

Topic: ???? am I nuts or what
OK, so last night my eldest son had a spaghetti supper for his senior class. He was to bring desserts. Knowing the last time we did this they ran out of desserts I decided to add to what he had already made (a chocolate cake with hand dipped chocolate covered cherries). I went home after work threw together white cupcakes with a chocolate glaze. I didn't even lick my fingers once 
. I know I dump, but I wasn't even tempted when before my RNY I would have been all over the batter and the frosting. I know it doesn't seem like much, but with everything going on in our lives right now (hubby still in the hospital 3 hours away) and all the school happenings, & work I am very proud of myself that I did not stress eat or even think about it.
I am very close to losing 100lbs and I want to hit that mark by Christmas, the best present I can give my self.
Thanks for letting me pat my self on the back and vent all in one.

Topic: Tuesday
Well we are getting ready to head to Dartmouth Hitch**** for a 5day eval for hubby and his seizures. The good news is he has been seizure free for over 24 hours now. I think he still needs the test so off we go. So the plan for today is simple
Egg w/ cheese for breakfast
Protein bar - Snack
I am sure I will find grilled chicken for lunch (somewhere)
grapes - for the ride
dinner will be at the hospital so not sure here
then I have popped popcorn for the ride home.
Hope you all have a great day!

Topic: lets make a plan
Ok, so slacking on the plan, trips back and forth to the hospital with hubby and seizures is no excuse, I need to take care of me or I can't take care of him so here goes.
Breakfast - egg w/ cheese
lunch - Chili ( if I am not still at the hospital)
dinner Chicken & veggies
snack - cheese stick
snack - Greek yogurt w/ sf peach spread
Hope you all have a wonderful Monday!

Topic: RE: Clothes!
I haven't been to a support group meeting yet but I'm hoping to make the next post-op meeting on December 13th. As far as not finding food appetizing, I am still that way for the most part. I'm not getting in as much protein as I should be, but I have found a few things appetizing that you wouldn't expect. I crave spicy things a lot and have been eating a lot of salsa verde ha ha. And by a lot I mean maybe a 1/4 cup at a time. I try to throw my Nectar medical protein in anything I can just to get that extra boost but I know it is taking it's toll because I am already starting to lose my hair. Taking it one day at a time though. I usually dont get the sick feeling just the I'm not hungry, can't think about eating feeling. Don't know as if I'm much help to you now, but maybe I'll see you at the next post-op meeting.
Topic: Tuesday's Plan
Ok so life has been getting in the way of posting my plan. But I know I need to keep myself accountable. Feel free to ignore the the good and let me have it for the bad already today.
I am going to make an effort to get more protein in today, but I need my oven back so I can cook dinners uggghhhhhhh
Breakfast - 1/2 bagel with FF Cream cheese
Lunch - Chili
Snack - I have a greek yogurt (need to eat it today)
snack - 100 calorie popcorn (trying not to stress eat)
dinner - depends if the element for my stove comes in hoping for baked fish tonight w/ steamed veggies (snow pea pods)
WATER WATER WATER WATER lol I need to drink more as well. Life happens and I need to work this tool properly and not just when it is convienent.
Hope everyone is having a good week.
