Got Scope'd yesterday.  They said all it well and I am ready for a march 1st VSG.

sounds like you're doing better than I was.. I was cranky.. I took frequent naps so I wouldn't subject people to my moodiness. 

Happy Friday, everyone!

Does anyone have any fun plans for the weekend? A couple of my friends and I are going to go to St. Augustine on Saturday to look around, shop, and have a nice lunch. It's supposed to be in the 70s this weekend, so it should be a nice outing. Sunday is always laundry and cleaning day. UGH! 

I'm almost 3 months out from surgery, and I'm still having problems getting in all of my protein. And most of the protein shakes, to put it mildly, SUCK! I've tried Bariatric Advantage, Nector, Isopure, Premier, Unjury, Quest, Muscle Milk and Click to name a few. The only brand I can stand even a little bit is GNC Lean Protein shakes. 

So, the menu for today:

B: homemade spinach and onion quiche, coffee w/cream and agave

L: Sargento Balanced Breaks

S: beef jerky

D: ? Undecided at this time. Perhaps chicken with spinach and feta

S: GNC shake, if needed

V: Done (Wonderlife liquid multi and extra B12)

E: home workout with (some of you may recognize these) Suzanne Somers Thigh Master and Butt Buster, hand weights and balance bar

I'm trying to work up the courage to start working out at Gold's Gym. I'm just not comfortable with all of the people I "imagine" staring at me wondering what the heck I'm doing there. I know they're not, but still... Anyone else feel that way?

Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. It's the Daytona 500 weekend here, so it's best to avoid that part of town! Take care!

Love St. Augustine!!! Try the gym you might be surprised,  I've never been shamed at the gym like other places, think about it they know you are there trying and know first hand how hard it can be to work out. The first step is the hardest, you might find you love working out....some of my greatest support comes from those at the gym.  There will be haters everywhere and there may be some but for the most part they are too into themselves wondering who's looking at them to notice you. 

Just go as a guest in case you don't feel comfortable or if you decide it's not for you. If you have someone that will go with you that might help. 

Put on some comfortable workout clothes and walk in there like you own the place.......don't let anyone stop you if it's what you want!!!
