Another week has flown by

It is amazing how quickly the time goes by. How is everyone doing this week? My week went OK. I've been scanning the want ads to see about going back to work. Just not sure what I want to do. A bit frustrating to say the least as I don't know what I want to be when I grow up. It's a bit overwhelming to have many choices now that my weight isn't limiting me like it did before. Can't decide if I want to go back to school, work part time or full time or ???? Anyone else going thru career change attitude after WLS? Mary

Hi Mary (and everyone else), I've finally gotten a chance to check in. I've been out of pocket for the last month or so. I've been out of town for work quite a bit here lately. Anyway, glad to see you are doing well. Good luck in which ever venue you decide to take. I know you will do well in whatever you choose to do! I've put on a few pounds since the last time I checked in. I haven't been exercising hardly any at all and my water intake is practically nil. Things should settle down for a while around here, so I'm getting back on the band wagon. I did walk last night, and boy did it feel good! Its so hard to stick to a regular regimen when traveling and I can really tell I haven't. The pounds will creep back on!!! This week, I vow to get all my water in and walk at least three evenings. Glad to be back!!! Wanda

Wanda, It is difficult to be on the road and still eat properly and exercise too. Know you will get back on track. Hope you won't have to work out of town so much (unless you love doing that). I have a friend who LOVES being on the go for work. She travels for weeks on end at times. Great goals for the week. You can do it!!!!! Mary

Mary, I love to travel. Especially now that my girls are grown. I will be traveling quite a bit for the next two years. I really have no excuse for not getting my water in or exercising while out of town. And, I know what I shouldn't eat. Its just a matter of doing what I know I should do. I think I just let go... but I'm back on the right road now and looking forward to losing those extra pounds! Thanks for the encouragement! Wanda
