Weekend's almost here! Any plans?
I have my therapy session in the morning. This is my third one with this therapist... I think I like her so far. I loved my therapist in GA and we talked a lot about my family and I would start crying about a minute in and keep crying til the end. One time she made me write a letter to my sister and I could barely read it I was crying so hard but she wouldn't let me stop! I even did that hiccup, can't breathe cry that I used to do as a kid when I was getting spanked! LOL I hate that! Haven't cried with this one yet but I'm sure the waterworks are coming.
I get the whole no dates thing. It gets exhausting after a while. I would put up and down my dating profiles so many times. It's rough out there! Take a break and eventually you will feel like getting back in.
I will let you guys know how I do at the Melting Pot. I am eating super good today before I go so if I take a bite or two of bread, I'll still be ok. I've always wanted to go but never had the chance (or the money!).
No more morning therapy for me! I better wait until after work if i'm going be crying like that. I had to go to work looking like a hot mess!
I rarely ever cry in front of other people so this was just bizzare for me...fortunately, he didnt make me say anything and he just talked for an hour. Though eventually, i'll have to start talking about **** but im working on it.
Looking forward to the update!

I have been waiting for a call-back from the intake coordinator to schedule a therapy appointment. It's time to deal with whatever demons are holding me back. Ugh. Hopefully I can schedule this today and get crackin' in that area.
I had a busy weekend. We went out for dinner on Friday night with another couple. Saturday afternoon there was a retirement luncheon for my hubby's HS principal. My man had to make a speech and he rocked it. I then noticed the many women buzzing around him and ignoring me. One was particularly bothersome. If she could have eaten him with her eyes he'd be all bones right now. She spent a fair amount of time giving me dirty looks as well. Get over it! It was HS for goodness sakes. Thank heavens I am 120 lbs thinner. It would have been hard to handle that otherwise. He was a star..he just proudly introduced me to everyone and held my hand.
We went out with 4 couples Saturday night to listen to jazz. I dran****d tea. Boy am I good.
Sunday was church and then brunch and a trip to Whole Foods. What a waste of money for me to go to any brunch or smorgasbord. I ate like a bird. This sleeve keeps me in check.
Have a great week my dear ones,
Sharon
Oh, I would have wanted to beat those women up! I would have been hugging and kissing all over my hubby. LOL I would have given them a show! I know my husband has women flirting with him at times at work, he's a good looking guy with big blue eyes... but to flirt in front of his wife? That's just low...
Sounds like you had a great weekend! I haven't been to a buffet or anything like that since my surgery. If I didnt take a to go box home from every restaurant, it would be a complete waste. I dont know why but when I'm at a restaurant, i get full after about 4 bites of whatever I'm eating! But I usually take my food home and have about 2 or 3 more meals out of it. Gotta love our sleeves!!

Melting Pot was really yummy! I am glad I went even though I was not able to eat much. I had a vodka with water and added Mio to it as my drink that night. It worked really well! Low calorie and low sugar. I really didn't get much of a buzz though... everyone says be really careful when you drink the first time after surgery but I had 3 the whole night and really didn't eat much at all and barely felt anything... IDK. Very strange.
Anyway, I only got the cheese and the salad course. The cheese course, I had about 3 pieces of broccoli, two baby carrots and one piece of cauliflower dipped in the cheese. I didn't do any bread or tortilla chips. Then my salad came and I ate about 4 bites of that. I was STUFFED. The other girls got entrees but I didn't. Finally, the chocolate course came and it looked good but wasn't really calling to me. The girls begged me to try some so I ate one banana slice with the chocolate peanut butter mix. I must say, it was quite good but that was all I needed. I didn't want anymore.
After that we went out to a "club" I guess you would call it but it was a nicer one with an outside patio and deck and the music wasn't so loud that we couldnt talk. Me and a couple of the other girls went out and danced and that was so fun. I haven't done that in a while. Then about 1 AM I had to take my old fart, married lady ass home. :-( But I think we are doing it again this Friday so I'm looking forward to it! :-) Have a great week, all!
