Back at work - for real this time...

Mar 12, 2012

As of yesterday, I'm back in the office, full time as long as I can stand it.  And remembering that along wtih fighting the weight loss battle, I also need to eyeball my stress levels.  Oh, and that eating is not the solution for that.

So...I'm still trying to get my routine together.  Protein starting at 7:15AM, Liquid lunch around 12-ish and continuing all day.  Dinner preferably around 7-ish.  Bedtime lemon water (just because I have a horrible case of thrush, can't stand anything sweet late night so no protein, and I've been waking up parched thru the night.

Pain is pretty much gone unless I overfill Bytu.  I've done it a time or two, so I've been pretty good about not overfilling for the last week I think...

And eating is...interesting.  Sweets are blech...generally.  Given that all my protein now is shakes/smoothies, getting it in is still a problem.  So, I'll be order unflavored soon and adding to savory things to make sure I get it in.  Little nausea, but overall - my complaints are minimal.  Whether/not I'm getting my nutrition in is a different story.

Energy level is wavering pretty much based on whether/not I get my nutrition in.  I may have to do the B-12 shot, since ingesting B-12 is again...interesting.

My blood pressure has been generally down, but has been creeping up a bit over the last day or so.

And in other news:  I watched My 600-LB life yesterday.  I may write a post only about that after I watch a few more episodes so I can get more details.  But - from it I learned not to complain too much about my journey AND note that it's a journey, not a destination.  And to keep underminers far away from me.  And that I will eventually be able to eat, which may not be such a good thing.  Time to form good habits now.

Anyways, that's it.  Hope you all are doing well in your journeys too
