Strange since we were pushed to increase our dairy since it has calcium. I was never told to stay away from caffeine either but each plan and doctor has their own ideas. I consume both and have no problems. In fact I had bread and cheese for breakfast with some coffee.

Ok so far, I miss my gym but even if they reopened today I would not go. I try to do daily walks which are nice but not everybody keeps apart which is annoying so I try to walk during morning when most are working from home. My kids school is reopening next week but I will be keeping them at home. I feel kinda like a bad mom because I am taking something social away from them but I just feel it is too early.

You are losing weight which is the goal. Remember the story of the rabbit and turtle?

Today 5 years ago I had my bypass and it was the best choice I made. Were there ups and downs? Yes but I have no regrets. I was 300 lbs and now 180. I got as low as 150 which was a healthy weight but looked sickly on me. Where I am now, I am happy. I feel and look good. My high blood pressure is no longer an issue. And my fear of getting diabetes has been pushed aside. Tomorrow is my workout day and I am looking forward to going there and staying as fit as I can.

-Moved into the new house mid- January and so happy too! It is much more space and so quite here. It is great to wake up to nothing but sunlight and well, the baby singing to herself in her room. -Husband got a new car which will cost less in taxes and cleaner for the air so that is nice. Also a quite. Never knew how much noise that diesel made over the Prius. -Got my sexy workout clothes at last and........they are in a size small from H&M! I am a small! I really need to keep things up if I am going to stay in those clothes because temptation is everywhere. It is so hard to keep

I brought one and wish I had saved my money. It is collecting dust right now and since I'll be moving shortly I think I might just give it away. I used it a lot at first but now I just use my eyes and trust my gut.

You did what you could, I didn't have a pre-diet. So hats off for even doing it, no idea how I would act on one. Don't beat yourself up because....life post-op sometimes you are going to eat a slice of cake or a hamburger with all the fixing. It happens, learn now to accept it and promise yourself not to just throw in the towel when you make mistakes

I know it is naughty but I want to buy some cute-sexy tight workout clothes. I want to flaunt for just a minute haha! Oh the ideas that pop into my head when I am bored

Nope, still kicking around in my big shoes

I have a friend who uses a sleep tracker to see times she is in REM, slightly awake, awake and other. I am thinking of downloading it because something is off lately with my sleep. I wake up so tired. As I laid awake in bed this morning, dreading getting up, maybe I can keep my son at home today. Just call in sick so I can get some rest. But that would have been a dirty lie. No one is sick, I would have no rest with two active kids in the house and school in important. One thing I do know is that the baby wakes up at 5 am just about everyday. I can hear her crying, go check on her, no she does

Had two very large tumors removed from my abdominal, tons of scar tissue and nope. No problems. I say my WLS looks like somebody poked me with a fondue fork while the tumor removal looks like a butch.

I am a stay at home mom and my son loves pop music. I am getting to the point where new music just doesn't do it for me anymore. I like happy music

Ok this sucked, it had been a while since I had some mashed potatoes then I had a carb crash. WTH! One of my favorite meals is baked chicken, mash potatoes and corn. I mix it all up and eat it, it reminds me of my childhood. Funny enough I don't get a crash when I eat sweet potatoes.
