About to head into week 5, and that means whole pieces of meat. One step closer to a "normal" diet.

Had scrambled eggs for the first time post-op today. It went down just fine and there were no problems. Thank goodness! This is a big step toward "normalizing" eating a little bit.

The only explanation for some of tonight's stuff would be poltergeists, but Halloween is still a week off and we're months from April Fools.

Why do people have 2 accounts here? iloveorganicmilk1 and GOM123 are clearly the same person.

I did my first 5K this morning with my granddaughter!!! It was a blast and I finished 9th in my age group! There were over 450 people registered!!

BMI just dropped into the 30's

I really should get exercise credit for eye rolls.

Seeing my weight start with a 1 takes some getting use to, as an adult all I've seen it start with is a2, 3 or 4. This an absolute first for me as an adult. It's crazy

I got a pair of size 38 jeans at the mall tonight. And they fit -- and I mean for-real fit, not strain and wear your shirt-tail out fit. So psyched!

I will never buy a cabbage head ever again. Back to prepacked florets. What a mess o.O.

Ugh.

What do you do when there's no "there" there?

I'm a little salty today for some reason. I will get over it. I think it really hit me somehow that I will have to make very careful choices for the rest of my life. I feel that I will never be able to indulge in the things I once enjoyed like a bottle of wine. Even if I do enjoy a 4-6 oz glass of wine... I have to worry about sugar, calories and weight gain. Sigh...

I've lost 23 lbs since restarting my band three months ago. I'll take it. This month is my seventh surgery anniversary and I'm working not to be down on myself for having messed up so badly. I'm the one who messed up and I'm the one who will tidy up.

I eat what I want...but what I want has changed since I began the journey...Penn Teller might say it better though:

What do you do when there's no "there" there?

Picked up the two most gorgeous apples at the store today. I got moved on to fruit (and lunchmeat) a little over a week ago. I've been too afraid to try it until now. Going to peel them (which is a shame because I love the skin, but I've seen so many of you comment on issues with the skin) and split it with my other half. Mmmmm apples.
