Oh the mind games....thanks for you info Marie, I really appreciate the feedback. I am really unsure if I will ever think the "right" thing is happening with this new tool LOL

I can wear my wedding set again! Put it on this past Friday and haven't taken it off since. Now to start shopping for a setting for the diamond I got for our anniversary!

I think I dumped last night. What happened was I got kinda sleepy and warm after eating some creamed soup.....and I barely had 1/3 cup. I won't be eating that kind of soup again. I am greatful that I had that experience and that I had it at home where I could lay down. Tonight I experimented to see if I could feel full.......well I can and I don't like it. I wasn't overly full, I didn't feel sick or get sick but I really think I am better off not feeling full.

I tried a Propel today, still can't stand the stuff.....tastes like an old rusty fork BLECK!!! I was good until about 5 days out then the taste took a nose dive.

Something has been getting on my nerves since surgery.......my Mother and Husband making comments on some of the side effects of surgery that can not be helped. Why is it that people feel the need to point out the bad? When I was in the hospital getting ready for discharge I was brushing my hair and my Mom was like "Oh wow, look at all that falling out. It sure is comming out". I bit my tongue knowing that it doesn't start that quick but even if it had WHY IS SHE POINTING IT OUT? ARGH! I had mentioned that part of my hair is colored blue/green form the die they use to check for leaks during surgery well, why does my husband have to keep pointing it out? I know it's there, it's permanent, get over it already. Then he keeps telling me how much smaller my breasts are. I am a woman, I like my breasts, I do not want to hear how my breasts are less full. I am about to let him know how his penis is less 'full' since his belly is borrowing from it !@#$% HELLO? That does NOT turn me on. Doesn't he know they are on my body and have been since I was in the 5th grade, I can see them in the mirror and I get that they are changing. I know it's because of his insecurities and now that I have blown off steam here I will talk with him about it tomorrow and be able to do it without ripping him a new hole

Today I had to deal with a tortureous event. Our family went to the mall and the kids wanted McDonalds. I sat and watched them eat a bit disgusted at how much my husband put away and how quickly he did it. This is not really somehting new, I have always been on his ass about eating slower and taking smaller bites but now that I have nothing better to do than watch him inhale his food it really kind of made me ill. I had a couple of bites of pinto's and cheese from taco bell, it went down fine but it just isn't the same as before. Wasn't as satisfying....glad there was some protein in there somewhere though.

I am craving vegtables so bad. Peas, corn, salsa, asparagus, squash....but I went and bought my protien supplement instead. I will try it in the morning but I am sure it will be NASTY! Stay tuned for an update

I am quite tired and I promised my girlies I will get them out of the house tomorrow so I am off to bed.
