My first day in 2 weeks without Mycah. I kept busy, but I do miss her. I know she had a great time with her 'new' brothers and is getting ready for the wedding later today. But I want her here. And I want her here permenantly!!Maybe soon.
Now on to the other good news!

WEIGHT: I am down to 280 pounds! YIPPEE!!! I was weighed at the NUT's office and it showed 280 on the dot! That's down 11 pounds in 3 weeks and 3 days! It was such an incredible feeling! And I got a lottery ticket to see if I can add to the 'New Clothes Fund' I've been smiling and telling everyone ALL DAY LONG!!
DIET: About 8-16 ounce bottles of water were consumed. And I'm still thirsty-not sure what's going on there. I did REALLY good staying on my diet today. I got a lot of protein in-83 grams today. I also stayed around the 1100 calories today. I had a meeting with the NUT today and we went over a lot of things today. She figured I needed at least 57 grams of protein. I also need to be drinking about 96 to 100 ounces of water a day. I'm getting about 64 ounces so about 2 more bottles of water a day (or milk, or broth, or tea....etc.)
EXERCISE: I did a bit of work around the house; picking up dirty clothes, making beds, filling up dishwasher. I also walked around grocery shopping (for about 45 min). My hip/leg/calf is EXTREMELY painful! I didn't get out to do much else.
We'll be shopping tomorrow so I'll be walking more.
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: Thursday 6.25--Endoscopy with Dr. G at Our lady of Fatima Hospital. 9:30am
Friday 6.27--Heather Gagliardi/Nutritioni
I had an appointment this morning with Heather (NUT). She was truly impressed with my weight loss and after reviewing what I am eating, my vitamin intake, and my fluid intake--she made a few changes to all. I was really thrilled to see her today and get more information. I'm learning to read labels and make smart choices. YIPPEE, again!!!
INSURANCE: No news. Need to call Dr. G's office on 6.22.09 to followup.
EMOTIONS: A bit sad and very much in pain. I'm not sure why my leg is back to bothering me. But I don't like it!!
MISC: I spoke with Jonathon today. It was really good to hear from him. He's going to call tomorrow to speak with Schuyler. I worked from home again and with the pain today, I wonder if I can get back to work. (I really don't want to go, but I do need to keep the job.)
