So wonderful... ????

Great!!

I sleep with a heating pad and several layers... When I started this journey I was going through menopause.... So I like this better cause I'd rather make a cup of tea and wear a sweatshirt then have to blow dry my hair cause I just had a hot flash.. Surgery and menopause... Perfect timing!

Your not alone. I was 1 week liquids, 5 weeks purée, 4 weeks soft. 10 week check up today and just graduated to life style diet.. I was upset too that my diet didn't move faster but I feel the doctors have there reasons from experience. Had my first salad tonight.. Yeah! Be patient ... Time moves faster than you think.

So today I had my 10 week checkup and according to the doctors scale I'm down 45 lbs (with clothes and shoes on). 4 lb difference in my favor from that fancy new scale I just bought! HA- take that fancy new scale!!! But the great thing is, tonight I get to try salad....oh how I've missed you, you delicate pieces of green leafy goodness! Please be kind to my pouch tonight. Plus I just planted an organic salad bowl on the deck. Yum!!!

I just get water with a twist of lime... Looks like gin and tonic

Wow ... I had a super stress filled day at work today.... Then the traffic coming home was crazy! All I could do is think - I need a glass of wine a smoke and maybe a nice piece of chocolate! None of which I had but man, if someone offered me any of those things at this very moment ... God only knows! So then my lovely phi theta kappa honor student daughter says... Maybe you just need to smoke a joint. Lord help me lol!!!!

I know... I'm not sure if she was serious or just trying to make me laugh ... I think stress is causing my lack of weight loss this week...

Like like like

As soon as I got home and every morning after that. Some people weigh once a week or only when the see the doctor... I weigh everyday ... It just works best for me.

How wonderful .... Share a before and after picture with us please....

I think it's more confidence! I already feel it and i still have a ways to go

Sushi!!!! I so miss it... Over the weekend when I was working outside all I could think of was how I'd love a nice cold twisted tea! Humph!

So first I am thankful that I have the most amazing husband. He is so supportive and I truly feel blessed. He started on a diet the two weeks after my surgery. He only needs to loose about 20 but he is truly trying and using MFP and we are workout buddies. He already lost 8 lbs!! Tonight he surprised me. He makes wine and bottled a Barbera which is a full bodied red. Well the surprise was that he put me on the label he made for this recent batch. It's a picture of me about 10 years ago and well, I think it's his favorite.. Here it is... What do you think?

Compliment today from hubby.... "Look at that tiny ass" haha

Well, and because your still healing. I can have alcohol after a year ..... Oh and empty calories

Great job!!

Love it!!!!!
