Wow...what a beautiful morning! The sun is out, the wind is just right...a gorgeous day! Thank you Lord for this day and allowing me to be a part of it!Now, to start with my blogging on a more normal basis! Here goes!
WEIGHT: 281.8. That means I am down 10 pounds from my meeting with the NUT and almost 19 pounds in the last 5 weeks. I'm not seeing it yet...well, maybe a little!
DIET: So far today I've drank 16 ozs of water and 1 EAS AdvantagEdge Chocolate Protein Drink. I'm going to keep on top of the protein today. Cottage Cheese, Chicken and Tuna/Egg Salad (lite mayo) are on my list. NO BREADS!! ~ugh~
EXERCISE: I met Julie at Slater Park for a walk this morning. I also met Cynthia and Denise. Mycah and I took Mika (the dog) and we ended up getting in about 1 1/2 miles. Pretty good for just having back surgery 11 days ago! My leg was numb towards the end so I'm glad I didn't go the full distance of 3 miles. I have a date with the Wii this afternoon for about 15 minutes of hula hooping and bowling.
SUPPORT GROUPS: Wednesday 6.17--Living Life WLS Group (Jules' group) from 7-9pm at Roger Williams Hospital.
Tuesday 6.23---WLS Support Group from 6-7pm at Miriam Hospital.
Thursday 6.25--Weigh to Win Support Group from 6-7:30pm at Roger Williams Hospital
APPOINTMENTS: Monday 6.8--First appointment with Dr. Giovanni at 1:45pm
Tuesday 6.9--Gallbladder ultrasound @ Roger Williams at 9am
Friday 6.12--Heather Gagliardi-/Nutritionist at 8am
INSURANCE: Nothing submitted yet. However, I have all the pertinant paperwork required to submit and will take it to Dr. G on 6.8
EMOTIONS: I'm doing pretty good today. I got up and walked and although that was a bit painful, it worked itself out and it's just an ache right now. I feel good about getting a walk in. I really enjoyed being in the sunshine and sweating a bit! I was with new friends, my lovely young daughter and the pup-dog. Life is good. God is good!
WORK: Work is a source of stress for me. It's also stressing my marriage. I'm concerned about going back to work and then having to take more time off due to the WLS. I'm being phased out and that's a horrible feeling. I have given them a reason to phase me out, I suppose, with my injury but I'm not happy there anymore.
MISC: Mycah and I are going to go paint ceramics this afternoon. I can't wait. We loved it the last time she was here for an extended time and this should be fun, too! I'm going to try to make something for Mike and Rachel's wedding. I'm thinking coasters and wine bucket. Maybe I can also make the pretty little wine glass markers and purchase a set of wine glasses. Just have to see about the cost!
Hubby is upset with me. He won't speak to me. And it's frustrating. I guess I'll eventually find out the whole issue. Until then I'll just sit here and wait. AND lose weight!
