A third of the way to goal!

Dec 03, 2011

 This morning I realised I am one third of the way to where I want to go. That is astounding to me. This surgery is just an amazing tool! 

On a not so great note I am beginning to realise I am lactose intolerant. I have been avoiding milk since every time I drink it I seem to bloat up and have horrible tummy aches. I got some Lactaid yesterday and had a small cup and things seemed ok. This makes me sad since I have often said pre-surgery my drug of choice was ice cream. Since my birthday in mid November I have been slowly working my way, one spoonful at a time, through one of those single serving containers of Hagan Daaz. I don't really miss it though. Whatever...pulling old clothes out of the closet that I haven't fit into for years is much more fun than a bowl of ice cream!

I have an appointment with Dr Sudan on December 19th. I'll be very happy when he clears me for regular food. The soft stuff is getting old. 

My energy is beginning to pick up although I am still wiped out by the time bedtime rolls around. Yesterday I ran errands, met a friend for lunch, did the grocery store, did a little pre-Christmas cleaning and hosted a play-date for my six year old son's best friend all afternoon. I think I was asleep as soon as I crawled under the covers! However I wouldn't have been able to do a fraction of that a month ago. I am sore and my back is complaining but it will get better. I swear by chiropractic care and will be getting an appointment ASAP. 

Ok..I'm babbling now and not really adding much that is constructive so I think I'll go goof off on this gorgeous Saturday.
