Missing in action, I know. I know. Missing our days when we were really rocking and rolling our new outfits!
That day will come again. Finally got out of my PJ's for four house sale showings yesterday. Selling by owner - perhaps, the right offer and buyer right around the corner?!
Like mirror mirror on the floor whose the fairest buyer of them all... ;]

Surgerynx got a reaction from BDL58 in Coronavirus: to mask or not to mask?
I always wear a mask whenever I go out and always observe social distancing.

Surgerynx reacted to Napua in Vacation
FYI:
My husband love to eat on vacation. Told him to enjoy his food. If Soup is available I will order soup and he can have my left over soup.
At my post op appt. my doctor stated to be sure to chew well and eat moist food. If I do not feel like eating, I will ask for hot Water and drink my hot chocolate or Cream of chicken packets from BariatricPal order.
Being one month post op, I do not feel like eating but I meet my Protein intake with the BariatricPal replacement meals and drinks that I just add water.

Surgerynx reacted to Pandemonium in Vacation
In a week's time, I'm going to be heading off on an in-state vacation for a few days. It's a small attempt to make up for losing pretty much all of my summer between surgery and COVID. Fortunately, I have a lot of great options for in-state getaways. Admittedly, I have some minor anxiety about the whole thing that is mostly related to my diet (mitigating COVID anxiety by making a concerted effort to get out of the downtown area and off to the multitude of hiking trails and quieter spots on the island). I've got a couple of big orders of my favored Protein bars arriving this week and will definitely be making room for a box or two in my suitcase. I can pick up some premade Protein Shakes from the Stop & Shop on-island, so realistically I know I should be fine and have my protein options on hand. And I know the bulk of the restaurants there well enough to know a couple that I could indulge in (more seafood restaurants than you can shake a stick at!) if I decide I want a meal, though I hope most places are doing takeout because I know no interest in dining in. So I should be fine. And yet, it's the first trip since surgery and I still have that annoying black cloud of doubt and worry hanging out nearby.
How did you handle your first post-op vacation? How do you handle them now, if you've much further out from your surgery date? Any tips or tricks?
Thanks!

Surgerynx reacted to FindYourFire in The best compliment....
Yesterday I picked up Starbucks. While waiting on my drink, another woman was making small talk with me. She very confidently said to me: "So you play soccer?" It caught me off guard because I wasn't wearing anything indicating anything about soccer, nor had we discussed anything about sports or soccer. (I had on tennis hoes and Nike Running crop pants.) It was honestly pretty random... but later it hit me... She assumed that I was an athlete.. because I looked thin/athletic enough to look like an athlete. It's been the best compliment I've received in the 5-ish months since my surgery. So, what was your best compliment?
