An amazing day!
This has been an interesting day to say the least.. and it isn't over yet.
My morning started pretty much the way it always does- coffee on OH. I went to get ready for work- no problems. As I went to gather the items I needed for work, I couldn't find them at all. My badge- missing. My cell phone- missing. I had to leave because I needed to stop over my eldest son's apt to get my christmas ornaments he neglected to return to me last year. I dug through my purse all the way to his apt... a 20 minute drive.
When I walked in to his apt, he looked at me and said " Gee Mom, your skinny" and grabbed my face. What a nice spin that added to my day. His father was there having breakfast with him and he also said I was looking good. That kinda felt nice as he just keeps getting bigger and bigger. ( My wish when we got divorced was for him to get old ugly and fat. ) I know.. bad Aime.. but hey!
I went about heading to work. Today I had to go to schools to audit some records. I was finished at the first school in 30 minutes. I couldn't go to the next school as a possible Monitor could show up. So- I went shopping. I found a few things to fit me. That was so exciting.
I came home for lunch and found my badge and my cell phone. After the next school, I went for my weigh in appointment. I am down to 214. My BMI is 43%. Woo Hoo! I got my B12 shot so now I am raring to go. My Nut also gave me the go ahead to eat salad. I have missed green veges so much. So I stopped on the way home and picked up some to have for dinner. I have enjoyed every single bite.
Like I said- What a day!

That is awesome! I am so glad you had such a great day! It is always nice when we notice something that reminds us that we are loosing. I have not really "felt" like I was loosing and if I was not seeing it on the scale I would not believe it but last night we went to hubby's Christmas party and everything I put on to wear hubby said "hon that really looks way to big now" it was frusterating but this time in a very good way. I put pants on that seems to feel like they were falling off all night and the knee highs that I had on kept falling down all night. Anoying but again in a good way. Except for hubby I have not had many people tell me they could see it so that I can not wait for. I can only imagine what a great feeling that will be.
Again I am so glad you had such an awesome day!!!
And with the ex-hubbymay he gain your weight as you loose it! Ok I know bad me but I wish the same for my ex.
YAY!

Sounds like your day was off to a rough start...but what a wonderful way to end it. Glad to hear that your sound is noticing our loss. He sounds very supportive. I blush when people call me skinny. My Aunts came to PA from CA a couple of weeks ago and each of they greeted me with "Hello, Skinny!!!" It felt good to hear. Wait until they see me next summer.
I'm glad that you got cleared for salads and that you ate one and did well with it. I am only a day ahead of you on surgery dates and it is nice to know that salads are do-able at this stage. I don't go see my surgeon again until January 22nd. Almost 2 weeks past my 3 month surgery date.
OH, how do you like the B12 shots? I'd love to decrease the amount of pills I have to take a day. I know we have to take them for the rest of our lives, but the fewer I have to swallow, the better.
Keep up the good work and Keep on losin'!!!
Hugs,

I prefer the B12 shot. It seems to have a better effect for me. I can feel the energy. I was trying the sublinqual pills, but they didn't really help. Check out your nutrician guide. You can probably have a salad also. I spoke to the nutrictionist. i don't see the surgeon again until I am at my 3 month post.
Good luck.
