Yikes! The dentist scares me for this very reason. Love your attitude!

Sorry about that! I saw you were on the site and wondered if that was what you were doing. 🙂

Somehow 2 threads were started for today and guessing both @nikki-massie and I started at the same time this morning….lol!! So I moved my post over from the one I started.

Ok, back to reality today and more importantly ROUTINE!! Vacations are great, but am always glad to get back home and a regular schedule.

So far today I’ve kept to my plan…[Read more]

You are under a lot of stress, so I’m not surprised about the sleep issues. Hugs! I think that’s all I have to offer right now that’s even remotely helpful, but do let me know if there’s anything else I can do.

I can’t seem to get going today. I’m sleeping at night but don’t seem to be resting. That’s making it difficult for me to get started in the mornings.

More of the same for me today. Cleaning out the house as much as I can. I got rid of a bunch of stuff that I haven’t been using out of the kitchen yesterday. I’m hoping to get more of it done…[Read more]

Here’s how yesterday shook out for me, food-wise:

B: Peanut butter on a rice cake

S: Lunch meat/cheese roll-up

L: Tilapia w/ fire roasted tomatoes

S: PowerCrunch Bar

D: My boyfriend discovered we can get free pizzas at Pizza Studio (think…Subway for pizzas. You choose a crust and then have someone make it from a gazillion toppings) if you…[Read more]

Yay! That seems to be going well for you so far. Continuing with that habit, you’ll probably make it into second nature pretty soon.

Link to your blog?

By the way, good plan!

Sounds like a plan! Kudos to you for thinking this through so thoroughly.

Yay! Vacation! Do you know where you’re going yet?

I’m so glad your labs are ok – but even gladder to hear your commitment to getting your vitamin regimen sorted out! Woot!

You made it! That’s the truly important thing, I think. Kudos! Your meals sound good.

I am also a rage cleaner. 😉

That works well for me too, writing down what I’m going to eat for the day. There’s something about that process that makes me SUPER committed. Like…it becomes the biggest deal to deviate from that plan!

The trick is…making yourself write it all down every day. (Yep.)

Mondays. Ugh. I get it.

I looked at your zero inbox aspiration and actually laughed out loud at the thought of getting there. Well…I should say I laughed at the prospect of the Bariatric Foodie email inbox to get there. For my work inbox I do a purge every few months. Sigh. The thought overwhelms me.

Overall, I was inspired to read your daily…[Read more]

Well @robin-miller, we have similar temps today! I think the high is only supposed to be 68 or something like that. Very strange for August! Also strange is the fact that my tomato plants seem to have gotten a second wind in this crazy weather! It’s been rainy and cooler than normal all month and I have crazy tomatoes fruiting. I don’t think…[Read more]
