Monday - BOTT Cardio and Cafe

Good Morning BOTT family - Hope you had a fine weekend and are all ready to go this morning    (Well, at least that you had a fine weekend LOL)

The scales are beginning to creep down this morning after my mega pig out 2 weeks ago.  I will remember this the next time I'm tempted to get off track - it has NEVER before taken this long for the scales to reflect compliance.

I continue to be cautious in increasing my exercise for fear of irritating my sciatica nerve.  I leave for a week Oct 28 and the elevator goes down for rejuvination Nov 2 - until Nov 20 at least, and perhaps as long as until Dec 15.  Since I live on the 7th floor, I don't want to do anything to jeapordize my ability to climb the stairs while I have no elevator.

FOOD:

Here's to a fine BOTT day

Well I'm new to the BOTT board, but am really quite glad to see you guys here... I remember when I was so excited as a new post op that I was vigorous with my nutrition... now I've got to really press myself to do it... so here it is... holding myself accountable:

B: Boiled egg with salt & pepper (my favorite breakfast)
S: 1 oz roasted almonds
L: 3 oz each fajita steak & black beans (no tortilla!!) with a little pico, cheese, & extra jalepenos
D: Left overs from lunch :)

Exercise tonight... Belly Dancing class :)

WELCOME!   I'm so glad you've chosen to join us.     We've all been there and done that or we wouldn't be here.  Actually, it's kind of unrealistic to think that for the next 100 years we will NEVER get off track.   After all, we're human and humans aren't perfect, they make mistakes.  I know being human can be a big inconvenience, but we're more or less stuck with it LOL

Hope you find this site as helpful as I have.  I know beyond a doubt that I could never have gotten back/stayed on track without their caring, understanding, acceptance and support.

Again, Welcome!  If you're comfortable, post often and allow us to share your journey.  You're off and running toward your goal weight and it is SO GOOD to remember the excitedment, reasons, and dedication you KNEW at first - they are all still there, just tap into them.

Have a wonderful BOTT day

Hope everyone has a wonderful Monday!

Jennifer - It's good to have you back!   I'm glad you're going to be posting again.  For me, not posting means I'm trying to hide from myself and it helps me to post and see that BOTTers understand, accept, and care.

Let us know how we can be most helpful to you. 

 

I am joining starting tomorrow.  I will not list the food mistakes of today.  Thanks for being here.

And you truly are a beauty   WELCOME   Hope you find as much help here as I have.  I call this group of folks my angels in disguise as humans

If you are comfortable, post often and allow us to share your journey to your goal.  Don't be shy   When one of us succeeds, we all succeed. 

Again, welcome
