Sudden case of the stupids????

I developed a sudden case of the stupids last weekend. The whole family was at the mall-not a place where you would typically find us. Anyway, my daughter and I always have treated ourselves to Gloria Jeans frozen coffee during our semi-annual mall trips. Well, my brain must have been in neutral or something 'cause I order the toffee drink for her and pumpkin spice frozen mocha for me. (I can hear you all going WHATTHEHECKWASSHEDOING??? ) So, there we are, sucking happily on our straws, looking at things we can't buy and the shoe drops...THIS THING IS FULL OF SUGAR! Oh God, I have to sit down...NOW! I am not kidding people...my upper lip was numb my heart was racing so fast, lol, anyway, DH finished my drink doing happy food dances the whole time and I finally started feeling steady enough to walk. Now I am wondering, how could I have been so flippin stupid? I have had coffee-starbucks, etc-I always get sugar-free. I just don't know how this could have happened, I am just so mad at myself! Have a great weekend everyone! Rebecca R 254/158/145 20W to baggy 10's in 6 months!!!

That's really pretty funny! I hope you're laughing at yourself. You just forgot and did what you're in the habit of doing. LOL. Isn't it strange that we can get into a rhythm and actually forget we've had major surgery! I've done the something similar. I was eating in front of the TV one day and just shoveling it in until my pouch started screaming at me! It was sure a wakeup call. My doc has always told us to eat and only eat and don't do anything else at the time because you forget what you're doing and you can hurt yourself. Well, I'm a believer! Hugggs and blessings, Heidi

Heidi- Of course I am laughing at myself-I have the funniest life of anyone I know. Your talking to a person who got stuck in a hot tob when I leaned back against the recirculating drain-I had a 4 in round hickey...lol. I am glad I am not the only one going around like an airhead forgetting I had surgery!!! It seems bad enough when I pull on my comfy pair of sweats and they immediately fall back down around my ankles, or the time I stepped back from a door thinking someone was coming out-only to discover it was my own reflection...hahahaha, but to order something LOADED with sugar without thinking-jeez! take care, Becky

A hickey from a hot tub? LOL That is too funny. I bet it hurt a little, too. Sweats falling off you, too? I think if we were friends in the same city and hanging out, I wouldn't be able to stop laughing around you! Great exercise for the diaphragm! Keep on laughing. It's great for the soul. Hugs, Heidi
