What did your mom love to do or ever WANT to do that she didn't get a chance to?

The first year after my moms death I went on a weekend cruise with friends. My mother LOVED cruises (and I hate them) and she always wanted me to go on one with her.

Since then I've taken "her" out to movies and even dinner.

Today I'm just going to focus on MY health which is in tribute to her!

Great suggestions, thanks Ms. Shell

She did love to travel, and she absolutely loved going to the movies, especially toilet humor type comedies

Thanks again!

1. get back into the pool this week. (I've been sick for the past week, on antibiotics and bailed out on the pool.)

2. Get as much done for my client's gardens as possible in preparation of my trip the beginning of next month. (That should burn a few calories )

3. Prepare for my trip by starting to pack foods that are good for me so I don't just reach for anything. (I already ordered more Unjury packets to carry with me.)

I need to get used to doing this. So, here we go.

1- Make it through the rest of the liquid only phase. It is getting really boring and I am sick of sweet stuff.

2- When I can try purees later this week, be careful to not overdo it. I don't want to damage my new sleeve.

3- Work on a closet purge. Most of what I had kept pre-op was too big anyway, won't be wearing those again.

Just remember to start with a few tbsp and I wouldnt try too many new things all at once. I think I tried maybe 2-3 new things a week at first. But I was a scardy cat and didnt even want to start pureed!

I have had some health issues and have not been able to exercise for several months. While I didn't regain any weight, I did not lose the last 30 lbs I would like to lose. Started working out this week,3-4 times at the gym and walk 2 miles the other days. Protein on target and water is good. Just gotta get back to moving now that I am totally recovered and able. I've lost 2lb in 4 days now that I'm moving around again.
