2009 and doing fine!!
Jan 14, 2009
Hope everyone had a great Christmas and a blessed New Year to all! 7th month is here and finally a drop on the scale. The holidays were kinda rough, not that I ate too much, but it's amazing how much "tradition" in food etc. rules how you feel or in this case eat! We usually make 6-8 different kinds of candy and 5 different cookies, when it came time to do iced sugar cookies with the little girls, I couldn't eat them, or the candy(we only made one kind). I did make some sf cookies, it wasn't the same. I made some sf hot chocolate mix, it was pretty good, but gave me bad, did I say BAD, but really BAD gas. My head was deprived, but my stomach was not. I think next year will be easier, but what I thought would be satisfing wasn't, so I will be on the hunt for some new WLS friendly stuff for next year. I found some apple pie filling NSA and I made apple crisp that was totally awesome. I will say, if I don't keep things changed up and interesting, it makes me want to eat, just for eating sake. Not sure I understand it anymore that you will, but it's almost like when I quit smoking years ago, I had to have a pack of cigarettes available even after 2-3 months done the road, just in case I wanted one, I never did, but it was a crutch. Even though I was in a huge stall for almost 2 months, my body changed alot, my face, hands, wrists, legs rearranged themselves and I think my feet did too. I'll get new pictures in this weekend, but I'm not sure they will do the changes justice.I had my 6month appt with Dr. Perlman finally on Jan 6th. So it was really the 7th month, but she was happy with me for sure and I will do labs on Friday to make sure all my levels are in good shape. She said, I looked healthy and would be suprised if they came back with a problem. She is also moving to a practice in Denver, and said I could come with her or stay in the Springs. I think I will go to Denver, I told her I would finish up with her. I trust her, and not that any complications will happen, but if I need a surgeon, I'd go with her. If insurance is an issue, that might change things, but we will see.
Well that's all for now, hope this finds everyone blessed beyond words! XOXOX
