Hey everybody! Work week is almost wrapping up! YAY! Little nervous today, as I have my 6 month follow up and blood work with my Bariatric office. Praying they are good levels and the team is satisfied with my slower progress in the past 3 months. Slowly but surely......

If nothing else, it just proves to me that I have a "monkey on my back" that I am going to have to fight every day going forward. I can only tell myself that I must make better choices tomorrow.)

Back from a week of camping at the lake. Have to go back to work tonight. Yuck! I hate nights but it works best with all the kids. I only gained .2 ounces while I was at the lake and I ate A LOT of junk while dealing with my overly critical mother saying things like, " No wonder, you were so fat. You're eating junk. You're gonna get fat again! Quit eating those cookies. Should you be eating that popcorn and bread? You're not supposed to eat that. Are you really going to where a bathing suit with all your loose skin?" When she wasn't complaining about what I was eating, she would say ,"That's all you're gonna eat. I cooked a big meal and we're going to have leftovers. You need to eat more. You didn't eat enough." Sheesh lady, make up your mind! I would just smile and say, "I am on vacation. I am happy where I am at and my Dr. is very happy where I am at, weight wise. I've lost 130 lbs. and I still have a way to go but I will do it in my own time and my own way." Mothers- the reason psychotherapy was invented. On a happy note, I joined the YMCA and I can't wait to start using the gym. The kids are really excited to go.
