My plan for today is to first, try to get a little more sleep. The last few nights have been very lacking in that area and it’s starting to effect my mood and my eating. After that I want to spend some quality time with my treadmill. PT exercises. Errands. Breakfast will be, most likely, a shake. Lunch will be some of the stir fry I made this…[Read more]

I don’t really know how to plan for this week. I have an appointment with the surgeon about my shoulder on Tuesday. The part that’s hard to plan involves my husband and his back. His physical therapy evaluation this past Thursday has made things much worse. He’s supposed to have PT twice this week along with an MRI Tuesday morning. All this…[Read more]

Lunches for the next week! Ground chicken with garlic, ginger, onion, slivered water chestnuts & bamboo shoots, grated carrot and sliced baby bokchoy cooked with stir fry oil. All ready to eat as is or on top of cauliflower rice or Zoodles.

For some unknown reason, the Bariatric practice just can’t have a group meeting in Waco. Hopefully this month I want be both the only long-term post – op or only RNY!

So, I’m going to try to get…[Read more]

I’m doing well so far today. All my morning vitamins and supplements are done. I had the last of my banana pancakes for breakfast. (this makes 2 days that I’ve actually eaten instead of having a shake) Lunch will be deli ham rolled around some baby Swiss and heated in the skillet until the cheese is all melted. Dinner… who knows yet. Working on…[Read more]

Today i I love that I have a knowledge of when I’m headed off the deep end and can pull myself back to a point.

I love that I have compassion for others.
