Kristi

Hiya, I'm Kristi. I had bypass on 6/26/13. I am a computer teacher in a very small school district. I teach grades pre-k through 12th grade. I'm also an Educational Technology Specialist. I have run into several other teachers on the June board alone, so I thought it would be neat to see if we could get a group of educators on here to share secrets to successful eating habits in school. I know we are always rushed for time to eat and use the restroom! How many of y'all are having to deal with Common Core?

I do this too… I'm an Educational Technology Specialist… haha I love having a title

ugggghhhh don't mention that common core stuff we are still on break! I'm in New York state so we don't go back till September.

I teach computers Pre-k through 12th, and a college class of Service Learning. I'm also yearbook advisor, we are a club not a class

hek1127- what do you teach? hautechick- what are you studying? RJ- LOVE this… "4AM - Up and at them!!! in reality I lay in bed and check RNY talk till 5am " I bought a fitbit flex (i had the zip before) and when the site is working I love it. It tracks my steps, my sleep, calories burned.. you can track your food, water all sorts… and I love the dashboard so I can keep track of it all. When you reach your step goal for the day you feel the bracelet vibrate on your wrist. It also syncs with Map my walk. I think this is a link for a referral and will give you more info if interested, http://bit.ly/1dI4WOa

So I'm up… eating a little egg white with turkey sausage… and then off for my morning walk… this weight loss is a time consuming full time job! I hope I can figure out an exercise schedule once school starts in september! Michelle, you are always in my thoughts. Hopefully everything will get better soon! So far I have had no aversions to anything I've eaten… this worries me at times because I don't want to fall back into old patterns later on…

the scale finally moved! yay!

Good luck and keep us posted!

Thinking of you Michelle ~hugs~

I have a fitness brag! This morning I went for a walk and was bound and determined to walk up the hill. I made it a mile all uphill! my total walk was 2.63 miles! I'm so stoked! it was very warm and when I got home i was so sweaty but i also felt majorly accomplished!

Not since surgery, but I know I had strange dreams when I took melatonin

I don't feel like eating today. I've forced myself but blah.....

I don't feel like eating anything today

Off to buy some colace

Not sure how I'm going to handle this.... Got a letter from the dr office. My iron level is low and they want me to double up on the iron pill. I can barely go to the bathroom as it is! My vit D is low as well so I have to double up my calcium w/vit d and take an extra d3 supplement. I guess this could explain why I need an after noon nap

[ATTACH]4149[/ATTACH] Chicken fajita in a cup. Very yummy!

I wish I liked cottage cheese

I'm making chicken fajitas for the family and will blend up some chicken and retried beans for myself.

Yes I am. I can't stand them but I do take them every day... I feel like they make up a meal on their own. Lol

I'm so tired. I can't get out of my recliner.i may skip the gym tomorrow. I don't feel like cooking dinner.
