Good morning! Sorry you're getting the insomnia again, Barb. Hope you get some rest eventually.

First day after my second CBT session yesterday evening, and I'm feeling better already - feeling ready to put some time aside for me, really plan my meals and my day, and use the forms they gave me to track what I'm eating and how I'm feeling when I'm eating it, despite the chaos in other areas of my life. Also got the Toronto East End coffee nights figured out for February, posted, and emailed off. And at least I've been getting up early every morning and spending a couple of hours to myself in the kitchen, preparing lunches and food for everyone for the day. I'm finding that routine comforting and helpful. Hoping to get in a walk at lunch hour today as well, but we'll see what the weather is like for that.

I'm getting low on groceries and prepared food, so time for a Costco run soon.

1 YEAR POST-RNY

B - 1/2 cup ricotta/vanilla/splenda mix plus 1/2 cup frozen berry mix (raspberries, blackberries and blueberries)

S - Sliced cucumbers, 1 ounce of brie to spread on them, plus some assorted olives and pickles

L - Beef stew (cafeteria special today at work), and a kiwi fruit for dessert

S - Another serving of ricotta and berries

D - Not sure yet - have to figure that out. Some sort of meat thing with salad probably.

S - Probably a glass of skim milk

TOTALS WITHOUT DINNER: 59g protein, 37g fat, 80 carbs, 11g fiber, 894 calories

So, dinner will have to be something with really good protein and moderate carbs.

Have a great day everyone!

Hi Michelle,

Where are you going for your CBT sessions? TWH was supposed to call me about them, but never heard back. I am going on a cruise on Saturday and will follow up with them when i get back, but was wondering where you go from.

Thanks

Liz

I've been waiting to hear back from them since being put on the waiting list in July. I saw Katie on Friday and I'm still on the list but unfortunately the list is quite long.

Hey Liz, I'm going to TWH. Maybe try calling them again and see if they have an opening yet. I got lucky, actually, and they called me a bit earlier than I expected.
