Tuesday Morning Roll Call
This is my first time starting out our morning post! I feel like a big girl.... I have been getting up super early to start working so that I can be done by 2:00, since my daughter is out of school now. We like to go to the beach or just do something fun every day... no big deal, just enjoying summer.
QOTD: What change post-WLS has surprised you the most?
My Answer: How sweets just do not call to me anymore at all! I have no desire to eat sweet things and actually think that most things taste TOO sweet now. I thought that my sweet tooth would be my downfall (as in the past) and just something I had to live with.... and maybe it will come back, but right now - it is gone! And I am enjoying it since I can walk by that cookie or brownie and not have it whisper sweet things in my ear.

Good morning!
Sipping on my fake latte this morning and anticipating a late night at the office. Last night I stopped at my parents' house to drop off some stuff and found out the cherry tree is ready for picking. I need to find time to get over there in the next day or two for a big harvest... but I got a small bowl last night before I left. Need to pit those tonight and maybe make a cherry cobbler or something else equally yummy.
QOTD -- I'm surprised at the friendships I've developed in the bariatric community. So many amazing people and such an awesome level of caring and concern from everyone.
Have a good day all!

I am very excited and feel very blessed today! I just filled out the insurance papers for Prioritity Health insurance that is offered through my new job. I am so excited!!!! This means that I will be able to have my surgery in Michigan and I won't have to seek a cheap dangerous means of getting it done else where but I will have to wait a little while but I am excited none the less and now I Know that Elia is going to be ok.
Good Morning (almost afternoon) all !
Deep into my regular work today, I have been behind and trying to get caught up. Took last friday off to go to Races and have this friday off to cook for my daughters wedding. I am hoping to get to sit back and relax next week as well as get my flowers planted (they are dying in the containers but no time to plant).
QOTD: This is a toughie because it has been so long since I had my surgery. I guess I would have to say that I am surprised at the fact that I have been able to stay lighter, yes I did put a few pounds on the last couple years but dropped them this past year when I set my mind to it! So the pouch does still work after this long! I don't diet any more, and that was a constant in my life!
Have a great day !

I have been having my challenges with adding new foods and would love advise from anyone and everyone. I hope to get on here daily from here in.

Hope all is well for the rest of you!
