What are you eating/doing today? (Monday)

I agree Costco is very overwhelming, especially on weekends.  The worst is people who block off the entire aisle with their cart while they slowly and leisurely try a sample, oblivious to the long line of people trapped behind them.  move! Move dammit! It drives me crazy. Just finding a parking spot I am stressed out, its a nightmare.  I go because they have good prices in dog food and premier protein shakes.

A cashier once told me there are people who just come for the samples! I seldom try anything. I just want in and out. They keep moving the dog food. I am not sure where it currently is!

On Sunday my dh came which he absolutely hates. We had two carts because the the hanging baskets so at one point he just stood with the baskets and I did the aisles. At least I then did not have to maneuver around people

Pat what is the name of the flower you bought?  Is it pink?

I can't remember the name as usual. I think it started with an M. It is a vine that has large red or white flowers. I have bought vines every year since we built a pergola over our patio. None have done what I want. I thought there would be something in the pot about it. I did read a sign by it and there was nothing about it being tropical.

I think it is the same one we buy every year but we get it in pink!  It is my favourite and we plant it outside all summer-no issues.  It is so nice you do want to bring it in with you but we never do.  We are major flower growers and it gets the most compliments!!

Thanks I will hope for the best. I am a lousy gardener. I do not know the name of plants and always hope that stuff comes back.

Morning all. Boy i'm tired today. Yesterday was the first real day i'd say i felt like myself. SO i did laundry all 5 loads, going up and down the stairs, cleaned and vacuumed. I felt great but i feel it today, that was my work out alright. I had a really hard time logging into OH this weekend so i just gave up. I hope everyone had a nice weekend as the weather was gorgeous.

CC, hope you can get off your c-pap soon. Karen, that was my weird way of humour the other day, lol. Tanya, enjoy your "Friday" and have a lovely "weekend" and Pat hope your cramps ease up.

I did follow up with the surgeon and he was quite pleased at how well surgery went the week before. He cleared me to resume normal activities but when i told him i wanted to try to have a baby, he told me to wait till my 2yr mark :( boo, because by body has been through so much these last 18 months. Which i understand but, my clock is not exactly standing still but hey, what's a few more months.

18 months post op

B - 1/2 cup oatmeal with protein powder added, 1/2 tbsp PB

L - 2oz corned beef, 1/3 cup cucumbers

D - 2 oz tilapia, 1/8 cup butternut squash, 1/3 cup green beans

S - 2 oz chorizo, cappuccino

Have a great day all, Nia 

That's great news Nia.   I would talk with the nutritionists and Dr. Agarwal about your plans for a baby.   Because we have difficulty absorbing vitamins, you may want to start taking things like folic acid now. Also they can check your FSH to see how close you are to menopause. 

Thanks CC. I'll definitely do that.
