Happy Halloween everyone. I'm preparing for my party tonight. The Village Halloween Parade is a sight to be seen for sure and I'm on the parade route so I'm having people over to watch from my apartment. Whoopie Goldberg is the Grand Marshall. If I can, I'll try to get some pictures. Have a fun time trick or treating tonight everyone!

Here's the view from my apartment. The parade was a blast and my party went great. I threw away the potato chips and open bottles of soda. I'm bringing the leftover candy to work on Monday. I'm OK with it in the house for a couple of days...sweets are not my drug of choice. I underestimated how much food I needed...I was worried I'd have too much left over so I didn't buy quite enough. No one left hungry but I used to never run out of food before. I also have sort of forgotten how much food most people eat. I've gotten used to my portions....

So for me, I had some raw veggies with a bit of dip, a couple of mini meatballs, one Hershey kiss, and a few pretzels/chips. Was a little hungry when I finally finished cleaning up so I had a laughing cow low fat cheese wedge and a 100 calorie ice cream and that did the trick. Enjoy the picture I attached. Oh, and we got a good look at Whoopie. She was on a huge float and waving to the crowds.

catching up every one seems to be doing great.. I've been traveling this week. 3 flights in 3 days and one more tomorrow sure has me beat. my band doesn't seem to know if it's coming or going. was doing fine while i was in Santa Clara and Folsom - weather was great but Rainy Portland seems to have tied a know in things. have had a lot of trouble eating since i got here.. guess it's just liquids till i get home :( hoping the scales will be nice - should be i've walked an average of 7 miles a day.. and lifted and moved so many heavy objects during inventory that i've lost count.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
