Eatin' Good Monday.....Another "farm" day and BRRRR

Hello all....chilly, chilly day today and it's supposed to keep dropping.  Haven't heard if we will get snow or not...  Just kind of spit rain most of the afternoon...just enough to be annoying.

Got quite a bit accomplished but still didn't get that room done.  Poor hubby's blood pressure med really kicks him in the hiney.  He gets so tired...they said that should regulate after a few weeks.  I hope so, I'm used to him working not sitting.  But at least I am able to work and I manage to get some things done.   His stress test is tomorrow.

Outta bed....coffee

Around 9:30....2 eggs, tiny bit of cheese and slice of wheat toast

Around 2:00...2 hot dogs, slice of wheat bread, 1 oz cheese, SF pudding

Snacks....protein bar and 6 wheat thins

Dinner is going to be leftover turkey taco meat and black beans.   Will add some cheese and sour cream.  Also planning on making some protein balls...so I'm SURE I will sample a few.

Water is great and vits are right on track.  All in all a busy day....sore again from all the bending and lifting.  So I better take some Tylenol before bed if I want to sleep.

How did you all do today?  Everybody keeping warm?  Post away.

Good Evening Miss Peg...

Had a half a breakfast burrito this morning...  it did not set well and felt bad for a while...

Went to take the man that gave me the mineral tubs a cheesecake and then walk over in his "neck of the woods"  now have 41 mineral tubs!!! ~HA  I will be a planting fool! any way... we came back and I had a bit of taco salad... still have to get in a protein shake tonight... maybe will make some hot chocolate... as I'm cold as well.... vits in good shape... I NEED to DRINK DRINK DRINK... I've been very lax lately about measuring my fluid in take... bad me... if I drink 8 oz with my 5 vits a day ... that's 40 oz and then the protein shake being at least another 8 to 16 depending on how I make it... I think I'm close but need to be more disciplined about actually measuring it. Need to get my timer back out.... I know this.

What are you going to do when you don't have that "farm" job looming over you?  You will be a free woman!!! ~ha

I will be praying that Mark's stress test turns out great and that he gets use to the blood pressure meds just real quick!

The scales seem to be moving again and I've lost about 7 lbs in the past few days!!! Yippee!

Going to go wash this SHORT hair and sniffle a bit. It seems so strange to have short hair after 25 years! I sure feel bald now for sure!

Love you my dear friend!

Bec

Hi my sweetie...

Oh....I almost cried when I read your story about your hair!  Really!  Mark asked me what was wrong and I told him, too.  He understands and he is a hair man....funny, huh?

Congrats on the weight loss!  Makes me so happy when I know the scales are moving again for you!  And the mineral tubs are going to keep you so busy.

I don't know what I will do with myself when everything is done at the farm!  I looked around today and started imagining doing the work that needs to be done.  Tree clearing, junk clearing.  Can't wait to see how it will look.  But I will probably go to see my daughter when the sale is done.  Nice time for a vacation.

Glad to see you are going to work on your water.....I know how hard it is to remember to do all the things that need to be done.  But you'll get there.  I'm so proud of you.

Love you too!

Kinda boring for eating wise, was sort of a tough day but I kept myself busy so I didnt think about food to much.  Just shows me how I am still addicted to food after all this time having the surgery.  Its really doing me some good to do the 2 week diet with Susan, really helping me get totally in tune to what I am suppose to be doing so I guess its all good.

Outta bed - Water and Water

Had a protien shake after walking.

Lunch - Homemade chicken broth and S.F. Popcicle

Supper - Protein Shake, S.F. Popcicle

Water and Vitamins on track, Walking on track.

Dont be working to hard Peggy, bet you'll be glad when you all are done with the farm.

Take Care

Andy

Oh, Andy....thanks for your concern about the farm. We'll get it there.

I am so impressed with you and Susan and how you are supporting her.  I know this is tough for both of you and working through this.  Makes me think how we learned so much in our study on discipline.  And here you are living it.  Hang in there, buddy.  We are all feeling for you.

You take care, too.

Hello Peggy and Bec.. Believe it or not I actually got to eat today.
Outta bed coffee and creamer 55 grams of protein mixed in a paste with s/f hotchoc mixed in then added to my coffee,took about 5-6 times of reheating but it went down.WEEEEEEEEEE
Breakfast-Banana
Lunch-Tuna and 4 saltines.Tasted like yuck but was good protein so i choked it down.I used to love tuna,Now the smell would gag a maggot off a gut wagon,But a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do
Supper- 2 ozs baked italian chicken,few potatoes and ate the lima beans and corn out of the mixed veggies..YUCK
But has been first time in almost 2 weeks i have had real food that stayed put,I am excited LOL'
Vitamines are good ecept im out of calcium but will order the chewy bites in a week if they are not out by then,I am doing viactive for now i figure some is better than none.
I go the 17th for ct scan of stomach and pelvis.still clueless why the pelvis LOL.But you can bet the possums i will find out.
My scales wont weigh even put in a new battery still a no go,So think i am gonna invest in just a reg set instead of digital
Sorry about hubbys b/p hopefully they will get it regulated soon.
Vitamines in well most of them ,fluids still working.Got a new chrystal light callled peach which isnt to bad ,if it is really cold.
LOve and HUgs Deb

Deb....it was so good to read your post and laugh!  Told Mark the maggot line and he laughed and said he'd actually heard that saying before!  Loved it!  And I sure will bet the possums!  Anything to get rid of them.  lol

I'm tickled you ate a little....good for you.  I know how tough it has been and I hope you get some answers soon.  Lots of intestines are in the pelvic area so they are going to look you over.  I'm glad....something isn't quite right.  I know you can't hold most food down, but does it cause you pain, too? 

Take care kiddo and I hope you can eat a little more tomorrow.  Just don't eat anything the maggots wouldn't!

Love ya,

I just hope i dont come back as a maggot in my next life or i am doomed.. YUCK what a nasty subject to be on, I actually wanna come back and be a bird so i can poop on everyones head that ever messed with me
