What are you eating/doing today (Wednesday)

That is great, I have used them several times since you sent them to me and they are so helpful.  Just wanted to thank you again.  Btw, have you ever tried tuna mixed with avocado?  Omg its really good!  Just made some using chipotle albacore, avocado, and fresh lemon juice and it rocked my world.  If you are still looking for suggestions for cars I really like the ford focus hatchback.  Have a nice night Karen!

I'm totally giggling here, on a couple of counts. First, I was reading your menu and thinking, Oh my GOD - tuna and avocado - MUST TRY!!  Second, and best of all, I AM getting a Ford Focus Hatch. LOL! Love them!

Get outta my head, Zizzler!

I am glad you found some benefit in the progressive relaxation - lately the 5 minute one has been a life-saver!

That is so funny Karen, maybe my surgery has given me "special powers" to see into the minds of others?  Hee hee, we shall see! evil laugh. I seriously love my focus hatchback, great little car.  I just discovered the tuna avocado combo this week and it is really nice, feels good in the pouch.  What colour are you looking at?  Mine is black.

Use those powers for good, not evil! lol

The one I *want* is white with the special black trim package and all the bells/whistles. The one I *get* may well be slightly less "flashy". haha Will let you know!

Hi.  I am having my RNY surgery the day after tomorrow (Oct 3) and am wondering what 'Chike' is?  I see a lot of people saying they have that.  And where do you get it?

Thanks!

Chike is an iced coffee protein shake (they make other flavours as well, but the iced coffee is fabulous). It has 20g protein, 2 shots of espresso, so not so great for very new post-ops and those who aren't allowed caffeine. I, however, love it! You have to order it from their web site, they are based in Texas.

Good luck on your surgery day!

Good morning all. Off to work shortly. Should be a busy day. Tonight I am at TWH. They are having a celebration for their 5 yr anniversary of the Bariatric Unit. We are lucky to have such great support centres.

I am still debating whether I will ride my bike into work. I went swimming yesterday. It is funny, my legs are strong from biking but you use different muscles for swimming. So the back of my thighs and butt are sore!

I'll see you there! Sent in my pics for their slide show. LOL. Not sure they made it in or not, as Chau asked for them last night. Regardless, I can't wait to go!

I am glad they asked for your pictures. They need to see what dedication can do.
