Today's WOW moments

So, today is the first day back to work after summer vacation...pre-planning for teachers in Cobb County.  Being the speech-language pathologist in a high school, most people have no clue who I am or what I do and if they acknowledge me at all, it's a smile or a "good morning". 

I guess losing nearly 130 pounds makes you more noticable!  Pre-op, I lost a significant amount of weight and a few people noticed.  Today, all the teachers I know have told me how good I look...and at least 2 teachers I don't personally know came up to tell me how good I look!  I smiled and said thank you.  Just wait until I wear my new school clothes (the ones that actually fit!).

On a completely off topic note, my office seems filled with little flying bugs.  Too small to be flies, too big to be gnats.  Anyone have any suggestions to get rid of them?

I figured out my insect problem (I think).  They are most likely fruit flies.  I checked the garbage, but there was no food in there.  I was moving things around and opened a cardboard box that I put in the trash in May...it was never taken.  There are some empty protein drink cartons in there from MAY!  I'm guessing that was the food source.  It's in the hallway now so the custodian will take it (or at least the fruit flies will move into the hall).

Eew gross!!! I am glad you found the source!

My wow moment of the day so far has been drinking a Slimfast low carb shake. I am supposed to start full liquids tomorrow, but I am cheating.  I am so tired of Unjury and Nectar!

I'll go back to the clear stuff for the rest of the day though. I don't want to push my luck.
