3 Doctor Appointments this week, and none are related to my RNY!… EEK!  PCP, Dentist, and Eye Surgery pre-op. Not going to lie, my Sept 9^th Cataract surgery is stressing me out so bad!  Part of me wishes they could just knock me out now so I don't worry about this eye surgery for the next 2 weeks.

Finally was able to go through the baby's clothes this weekend. Woohoo! Of course now I have bags of clothes that are too small all over my house. I still need to go through my clothes and get rid of my old clothes then I can donate a load to a local clothing bank. Now I just have to find a weekend to do that. I think we need more weekends and less Mondays.

Good Morning! I am so happy that you had a fantastic time, you so deserve to have a blast! My weekend was pretty boring, but I can't complain as I was able to get some relaxation in. I am looking forward to today going quickly since I took tomorrow off (Hubby has an odd early work schedule so I have to take the kiddo to school and since that would make me late to work I thought I would take the day off and enjoy some quiet time and catch up on some shows on my DVR (any other Bachelor in paradise watchers?!?! or Chasing Life...and Switched at birth starts up again too!!).

Have a great one!

I had an okay weekend. Took my daughter back to school which I didn't think I was going to have a hard time till I left. I only cried for a little bit. It is really hard to leave them fly. I know it is my time now to take care of me. I keep telling myself that. 

I am going to see a new WLS doctor today. I did not like the one I was going to. He rushed through every appointment and acted like he didn't care. he would talk about his dog more so than what was going on with me. I have had pain in my belly button for the past six months and he already did two hernia surgeries on me and I am like I can't go back to this guy. I don't trust him. He just brushed my pain off thinking I wanted pain meds. I am like I want to know what is wrong with me. Well enough ranting. I must get my day going.

B:Quest protein bar min chocolate chunk 

L:Tuna

D:Steak 

S:Yogurt maybe or string cheese

Vitamins are in and water is going down. 

Have a good day. I changed my lunch I made an egg white omelet with pepper jack string cheese. With a tablespoon of salsa on top

I feel for you about missing your daughter... it is hard to watch them move on, but I know you are very proud of her! And, you are right, it's your time for YOU!

Good luck with the new doctor. I hope you find one that will listen to you and HEAR you! 

Thank you. I hate Mondays. I just need to get my ass in gear. 

Good that you are going to someone new, we have to feel comfortable with those we are trusting with our health. Hope the appt goes well.

I know how you feel, when my oldest went off to college I cried, of course she was only a little over an hour away and was home every weekend.  I'm dreading my youngest going off to college, but i have a couple of years to go. 

Good for you going to a new Dr.   You have to take care of yourself.

When my son moved out and my daughter went off to college last year. I felt so empty. This time taking her wasn't as hard. I took her by myself last year and that was tough. 

Even though her and I butt heads sometimes. I still miss her. She is having a great time she loves school. I think part of me wishes I was her and I was able to go away to school when I was her age.
