Good morning! The scale has been hovering for a few days, and finally dropped 4.5 lbs today. That puts me over 50 lb lost.

We're on our way to go pumpkin picking with friends. When we get home, my MIL will take Teddy for his nap and then play time, and Jaime and I will do a fall clean up. I need to mow the lawn one more time, and we need to cover outdoor furniture, put away pool toys, etc. I also bought some bulbs to plant.

QOTD - I haven't carved a pumpkin in years. I'm sure we'll do it when Teddy is older. I like them whole - they usually last until Thanksgiving.

B - latte, cottage cheese

L - broiled ham and cheese roll ups

S - protein shake

D - sausage (that I didn't cook last night), mushrooms

E - yard work

Water and vitamins on track

Happy Saturday, fellow VSGers!! Got my first paycheck yesterday, so I am one very happy camper!! It's a bummer I don't have time to post here during the day anymore, but we're not allowed to use our phones for anything but emergencies, so I have to do it when I get home. I've been too wiped out but with only one class this session, it will be a lot better. Hopefully I'll be able to post at least a few times a week now!

Going to try to get my sister to take a good pic of my new pixie cut today so I can finally show you what it looks like. I really do like it, and the more comments I get about how it makes me look younger, the more I love it! lol

My hysterectomy surgery is only 3 weeks away...I can't wait. Seeing the end of pain and getting rid of this bulging midsection is in sight, finally! I'm excited to finally look down and see no tummy after all this work. I expect to lose about 10-15 pounds when it's gone...those fibroids are huge!

Finally got a referral for a new orthopedist so getting cortisone shots in my knees, hopefully next week. The pain in my left has been excruciating for a couple of weeks.

I know sizes are fickle but I just bought some new dress pants for work in size 16...and they're TOO BIG!! lol I can't wrap my head around having to buy size 14 in anything...I never thought I would see this day! God bless whoever discovered WLS and VSG!!

B: Yogurt w/sunflower butter and Fiber One, coffee w/H&H and xylitol

L: More of the boatload of keto (beanless) chili I made last weekend.

D: Leftovers from Denny's last night...burger topped w/onions, mushrooms, bacon and cheese, side of sauteed zucchini

Water and vites on track

E: Not until I get the corisone!

ETA: QOTD: I haven't participated in pumpkin carving since my baby sister was young...so about 35 years or so. I don't usually do Halloween since my folks passed, I used to go to their house and help out. I think I'll get something to pass out this year, though, just in case some kids come through my neighborhood.

Livin' La KETO Loca!!
134 lbs lost since surgery, 195 overall!! Initial goal reached 9/15/17, (10.5 months)!

Second day of the OH conference today. I need to get out of this bed and going if I'm going to get there on time!

QOTD: I don't carve pumpkins anymore, though I would if I had kids! It's too hot here for them to last very long once cut...

B - coffee and yogurt

L - not sure, it's provided at the conference today

D - pork tenderloin
