Damit, I have a confession to make.  I HAVE NOT BEEN DRINKING WATER.

Yes I am a dried up ole hag who needs to drink water but for the past 4 days have drunk about 4 bottles total. I have been sustaining myself of pop sicles knowing dam well that is not nearly enough liquid.   I am sitting here nursing botte 2 as week speak and will try to drink another before I retire for bed.

That's it i'm done, confession over.

 You are my inspiration. I started back taking care of myself. Since I don't have a car right now and I am disabled, I called the people over my fitness program with my insurance. They sent me an exercise DVD with various exercises and I love it and bands and a ped-o-meter. I have been eating right and drinking my proteins and taking my vitamins. i am working on getting the water down. I will keep posting on my progress. I am excited because when I weighed myself on Monday my weight was 262 and today it is 257, I know I do not need to over do it, I don't need my back to go out. Thank you for all of your hope and inspiration. I will be attending the oh conference here in Atl. and I am excited about it. Blessing.  In the words of my grandkids, you rock.

Mid week day two, trying to do better with this diet plan.  Started the day eating what's easy but the rest of the day'sn plan is better assuming I'm up to fixing my meals.  I'll be getting in one shake instead of two but that is all I think I can get down.  Main meal is a salad with shrimp, naughty breakfast, air poped popcorn. 

The hardest thing is keeping the liquids down.  Its counter intuitive first because we've been trained to sip sip sip; second because even pre op I went through a 2 liter diet coke every night plus a pot of coffee a day.  With this edema and these meds I need to drink when I'm thirsty.   I have no need to sip to avoid grazing and at approaching four years out, pushing the water is not necessary since my habits discourage dehydration risk. 

Today I'll get a little closer to plan.  One day at a time, I will get there.  Twenty nine pounds to loose.  I will do this.
