Yuck! Sore throat, headache, achy bones since yesterday. No Water aerobics today. Feel cruddy and have to fly to Seattle in the morning so I am laying low today. May or may not go to beading in an hour.... Maybe I'll just go check out the project for this week, get the directions and beads and come back home if it looks like I can do it by myself.

Scale down 1.3 lb this morning but a long way to go to undo what I did!

Caught up on all the posts from the whole last week last night but too lazy and tired to post!

We had a good time on the cruise but weather was not the greatest. Some rain in Mazatlan, LOTS of rain in Puerto Vallarta. Cabo San Lucas was beautiful and had a great time there.

I ate too much, drank too much all week and gained too much! We won't talk about HOW much!?! But I was shocked. I wrote down everything I ate. But, I ate too many Desserts, too many rolls, too much of everything. Ate seafood almost every meal, though, and only ate at the buffet twice. That's not a good idea! I walked a lot.... especially on sea days because I didn't use the scooter onboard at all except when we first got onboard, and when we got off. It was in the closet in our room except when we went off the ship. Didn't take it on excursion either, so walked then, too. Feet hurt every night! Not too much trouble with hip, so that's good.

More later. I must post a photo of one meal... we got caught in the rain in Mazatlan. So we'd already planned where we were going to eat, but when that happened, we ducked in to this little restaurant.. it was a patio, really... very small... maybe 6 tables, if that. Menu was mostly in Spanish, and i pretty much knew what everything was, but I picked "Fried Fish".... and this is what I got.....

Oh, GROSS!!! So did you enjoy the refried Beans and Guacamole, cause that'd be all I'd have eaten....:)

Phyl, fabulous pics, I love the formal one of you and Earl, and naturally the one with the lizards. That is one beautiful iguana!!!

Came home and finished the house cleaning, so I'm good for another few days. Roast in the crockpot. Home alone for most of the evening.

Not much better tonight. Plus... PB'd after dinner the past two nights and my stomach is still not feeling good. Tilapia last night, filet tonight... first steak I've had in weeks. It was very small, cooked perfectly, but I still couldn't keep everything down. May just be this crud, too!

Oh, GROSS!!! So did you enjoy the refried Beans and Guacamole, cause that'd be all I'd have eaten....:cursing:

Oh, the fish was WONDERFUL once I got past the head! LOL!

No guacamole, just a couple small slices of avacado, Tomato, lettuce and the refired beans & crema. Enjoyed it.

I go back to the doctor on Friday. The hardness seems to be going away. Just wish I could figure out what the heck is going on with my head. I feel terrible. I'm going to bed WAY later than I wanted to because I am trying to get some work stuff done. Lee asked if he could help me so I put him to work. He looked at me and asked "Do you have to do this often?" I said "every unit". To which he replied..."No wonder you have to work so much...this is awful" Sometimes it is good for him to see how horrible some of my jobs are. It is just computer entry stuff, but it all has to be coded. UGH.. Going to bed now!

Good Morning Gang.....

Karri - Coding omg that would be the pits.. Ya it's good for him to see what you do - how nice that he offered to help... Can't wait to hear about the saka ;0) Glad to hear that you are getting a little romantic in your old age - it's sorta fun ;0).

Hope the head feels better today after some sleep..

Karla - What the hell have you done this last week - you didn't go on a cruise... Cut the carbs and quit using the word Hope - you will get this weight off - yes a fill will help - but it's that whole sandwich you ate - it's the carbs - they make you retain water..

Phyl - How are you feeling today?? I know you are going home for a few days.. But forget when - are you flying out of Palm Springs...

Candice - How the painting go - are you and Peter doing anything for V day..

Well not much to report - I went to bed early 9 and then woke up are midnite ate some trail mix and pb'd - up now having coffee - another day at work..

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
