my world was turned upside-down yesterday when i was told i would no longer be needed at work. :( went in to check the schedule and talk to the manager because I was planning on returning this week. Instead i got pulled aside and told that they weren't interested in me coming back. So today and for the next while I will be running around trying to secure a new job so I don't lose my house and end up having to move back to my dads. *shudder* its just not a good combo. So please send good vibes my way!!
to be honest im not really surprised. for a while they have been showing signs of trying to boot me out the door. there was no real reason either. i had worked there for two years and i guess that was too long or something. in the months leading up to it they cut my hours significantly( i was only part time to begin with ) fabricating stories about my work ethic and even stating to my face that they would rather have someone else to do my job. :/ i worked really hard at making the restaurant a wonderful place to be. i will certinly miss all my regulars. i bet they'll wonder where i am. i spose the positive side to this is that my life will be less stressful and my weekly gas bill will go down.
im really trying to become a teaching assistant. i love working with kids and i think it would be a really rewarding job. so we will see how that pans out but at this point ill accept any job.

Two weeks out...
Feb 17, 2012
So today marks two weeks since my surgery. Its been a little rough the past few days as far as hunger goes and I know I'm not getting enough protein. Close but not quite there. I was never a sweets eater before surgery so I'm having a hard time making myself drink all the sweet protein shakes. I tried some non flavored whey powder in some tomato soup and couldnt handle it either. Luckily I discovered Isopure drinks. They have just the right amount of sweetness and are super refreshing.
My weight loss has stalled the past few days and I wonder if that has to do with not enough protein. I've been walking a good amount. Today we walked close to a mile and it felt good. Took Genevieve with me this time, yesterday I took Mojito. Normally I walk them together but I figured it'd be best to take it slow and just do one at a time.
Looking forward to my new diet next week, and hopefully being able to step up my exercise routine as well as getting back to work. So we shall see what happens!!

A bit of a late start...
Feb 14, 2012
Hello all! I'm Ally and I will be two weeks post op this coming tuesday! So a bit of a late start for joining and posting, but better late then never!
So far I haven't run into any problems but I'm finding my self very excited and constantly have to remind myself to slow down and be patient. The hardest part so far has been being seperated from my two dogs. I am currently staying with my father and they have been banished to outside while I am staying here. But just another week or so before I return to my own home and I'll be able to have them around 24/7.
I'm going to try and write each day but it may not happen hahaha. So we will see!
Looking forward to meeting some of ya'll and having a good support network for those rough times.
