My food plan wasn’t the greatest this week – I didn’t have enough of it (right macros, but not enough volume), so I ended up modifying.  I’ve made notes for the next time I make the recipes (if ever!)

Exercise is on track – 29 miles and two strength workouts down already.

Stress is relatively high, though!  We are having our house painted, and i…[Read more]

Sounds amazing, especially the strawberry cheesecake!

66 yesterday, which amazes me actually.  But only 24 so far today 🙁

I managed the 60 minute thing last night and didn’t wake up hungry during the night.

I’m currently at 56 ounces.

I’m sitting in the waiting room at the Bone and Joint clinic in Temple,not far from where my support group meeting was yesterday. My husband is going to be having an evaluation here based on what the MRI showed on Tuesday.

I have no idea if I’m going to be able to get my steps in today. I’m working on my liquids.

Breakfast… I forgot to eat…[Read more]

66 oz today and I actually tried to keep track of how many times I went to the bathroom. (14 or 15)  I must have a small bladder!

Last food of the day was at 7:30 pm

I feel you – that stinks!

🙁

I’m at 104 ounces at the moment. That’s likely to go up as it’s only 7:30ish here.

The thing is for me is that I just won’t get up in the middle of the night and eat. My husband does it all the time and apparently has done this all his life. Me, on the other hand, will lay in bed, not sleeping because my stomach is growling so much and, almost literally, can’t make myself get up and eat something. If it happens before I get to…[Read more]

@robin-miller, I have had a similar discussion with my bariatric doc, and where we landed was that I actually do eat in the middle of the night. (I always wake up around 12:30 – I go to the bathroom and eat a protein bar that I have sitting by the bed).  This keeps me from waking up with low blood sugar.  For me, this works much better than e…[Read more]

Yep!  I’ll do both but water will still be the harder one.  I’m at 36 oz. so far.  It’s 9 am here and I’ve already gone to the bathroom 6 times  🙁

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Wow! No eating 60 minutes before bed. That going to be hard for me! I actually have a snack before bed that was scheduled in by the surgeon as I was waking up with a growling stomach in the middle of the night every night. It will be interesting to see how this goes.</p>
<p style=”text-align: left;”>48 ounces in. I may…[Read more]

Busy day ahead for me. My support group meeting is today at noon with a most of an hour drive to get there. Afterwards, I’m headed to Killeen for some grand baby time. My son encouraged me to come today as his mother in law (grandma #2) arrives tomorrow for an “extended visit”. He knows that she’ll be staying at least through father’s day as…[Read more]

This one will be much easier for me!  My routine is a little tv, shower, brush teeth, then some sudoku and Pandora in bed.

I’m super jealous of Robin – only 6 times and none at night ???  Is that your super power?  I think peeing so much is one reason I dislike water.  I wish I only had to go once a day – it’s a flaw in the human body, if you ask me.

So anyway, I’m at 60 ounces. And I’ve probably peed 25 times today.

Hmm, that’s a big challenge!

Awwwwww! You’re making me blush.
