Good morning. Well I report my successes so I have to report my failure. I did not go to the gym this morning. I was just too stinkin' tired.
Anyway, what a beautiful day. Sure wish I wasn't at work. I toyed with the idea of taking the day off! But it's just early June so if I start that now it could turn into a really long summer. We are going out to a patio for lunch to enjoy the beautiful day.

Happy Friday gang! Had a great walk last night and I'm anxious to keep adding distance each week. MY BFF and I are heading out tonight but hopefully I can convince her to squeeze a walk in with me. No big plans for the weekend but if it's sunny out I intend of doing some more yard cleanup... spraying etc.

That's a real achievement to hit over 100 lbs lost! That's incredible! Good for you!

I blend my vanilla in a Nutra Ninja with ice, a package of Crystal Lite Tangerine Grapefruit and a drip of LorAnne's Orange flavouring (also have peach and amaretto so will try those next)- blend with ice and cold water and it is palatable (not good but you can get it down! _ I threw up the first two I tried even blended until I added the flavours).
Hi there,
I am going through the program at TWH too. Just had my 2nd appointment - Met with the Nurse.
They are all so great, they listened to all my concerns answered every questions (I had a lot), at the end of each appointment they told me next steps, what to prepare for and both said have given stamp of approval, and what type of surgery they think I am best suited for.
I was advised it's about 1 year to 18 months from referral to surgery date.
Good luck!
selkiem - I'm so glad it helped!!! Someone gave me the tips of adding flavourings to them and it makes a world of difference for me! Thanks for the tip on the Orange flavour. I'll head to Bulk Barn and check it out!!
Good morning :)
Ginnny, taco salad sounds delicious but I literally do not have any of the ingredients... Guess I will settle for pork roast again lol.
Nothing planned for today. I got a referral to a clinic in Toronto and they have a 20 page questionnaire to fill out and send in. I've been working on it for two days and I'm on page 7. So I guess that is on my list for today.
Accountability: two bites of a donut and chicken wings for dinner -- darn you chicken wing craving. They were delicious though.

you have to just add ice and use a straw if need be and chug. You WILL be hungry on Opti so as time passes it starts to taste better. hang in there.this is the easy part.
