Morning all. Well, a day on the couch was just what the doctor ordered. I got the maximum amount of rest that a person can get. I feel much better and maybe I look a little less raccoonish? I got less than zero steps and rotted my brain with true crime documentaries and I'd call it a good day. Back to reality today, though.

QOTD: Have you ever been cheated on? I don't think I have, but who knows, I guess. I have had friends over the years who found out their SOs were cheating and some of them stayed together and some didn't, but I have always known that I don't have the temperament to forgive. One of the documentaries I watched yesterday had a woman forgive her husband for terrible awful cheating and I wanted to jump through the screen and shake them both.

Accountability: I really think I managed to be in the negative for my step count, lol. I suppose I must have walked from the couch to the bathroom to pee a few times, but that's the max activity I had for the day. I eventually felt hungry and I had a few bites, but nothing that resembled a meal. I just had a few sips of coffee and it turned my stomach, so I don't feel like making a menu, but here is my best guess:

  • protein coffee
  • egg bites
  • chicken & broccoli
  • chickpea tortellini
  • High Weight before LapBand: 200 (2008)
  • High Weight before RNY: 160 (2015)
  • Lowest post-op weight: 110 (2016)
  • Maintenance Weight: 120 (2017-2019)
  • Battling Regain Weight: 135 (current)

Good mornin everyone. Glad you got so much rest and that you're feeling better QJB!

Nothing much planned for the day. A trip to Sam's and my moms wanting to mow some. We may also got to a local grocery store. My niece Riley, is staying the night tomorrow night,p so we need just a few groceries. My mom is convinced that there is going to be a TP shortage again. Due to the port strike. So we'll be getting TP at Sam's

My digestive tract is really starting to make me angry. I'm just sick of it. Does anyone here have experience with probiotics? Do they work for our altered system? If I can't get it under sontrol I'll be calling Monday to try to get in to see my PCP early.

QOTD! Not that I'm aware of but my experience is very very small

food is unplanned and iffy at this point. My stomach feels like it did when I had to stop Ozempic.

I've found probiotics to work well with our systems. Whatever brand you get make sure it has 30 billion or more live cultures. Those seem to work the best.

Most paper products are domestically produced so this is just another random panic. Bananas on the other hand, lol

You might be ok, they might have a route via the port of LA as well, give the perishability factor. If the west coast ports strike in solidarity though...

***whimpering****. The strike will impact my kids business. As it will millions of families. I'm hoping for a fair resolution all the way around.

I agree...the random panic buying stuff. My mom just isn't very rational all the time. Sam's was a mad house and out of TP. Just crazy but it'll be fine. There are people who are really going to have it hard with this strike. TP panic stuff is nothing compared to it.
