Have a gorgeous Friday and remember those vits and fluids.  I will be back posting on Monday.

4 days post tummy tuck and I'm doing pretty good. I haven't been tracking my food like I usually do but making sure I get at least one protein bar and two protein shakes per day plus 2 or 3 small meals.

Cool. Glad you are OK... good to see you posting... have fun... 

Great to hear from you Angela! Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers and you continue healing.

good afternoon. my life is very different right now. i have been off from work for a couple of weeks now because of my shoulder injury, that will be surgically repaired on monday, june 24 ... i am still doing some walking. but life is a little more boring and days seem a little longer than usual because i can't do too much. i am sticking to this because i know i can do it, and i know it felt really good to be 175, as opposed to this 190 i was this morning. 15 pounds is not much to some, but to me it's the difference between not having anything to wear, and a closet full of clothes! lol

but seriously, it's the difference between me feeling bad about myself and feeling great about myself. i really felt so much better, and people at work actually treated me differently. just with the 20 or 25 pounds i gained, crazy. they didn't know me at my highest of 280, as i took the job a year ago. i wonder if they would have even hired me? hmmm ...

anyway, i am going to make through today, and that's all i need to worry about. tomorrow is another day. the menu for the day is:

 

first things first: coffee with fat free half and half

breakfast: strawberry greek yogurt

snack: weigh****chers cheese stick

lunch: turkey with cheese

snack: protein bar

dinner: shrimp and shirataki noodles in soy vey

snack: fat free cottage cheese

 

i haven't done it yet, but i will be walking on my treadmill for 30 minutes and drinking 100 oz of water! 

 

i will try to get more exercise in tomorrow, and everyday before my surgery ... 

 

thanks for listening

Wow, Mindy, you are doing awesome! First, 15 pounds is a great accomplishment. Your food choices, water and exercise are right on track. I'm really impressed with how well you are doing at finding things to do other than munch out if boredom . Great job!

thanks so much ... i have lost 12 pounds after going back to 201, so i think i actually gained 25 pounds! OUCH! but i'm back down to 189 now and have 15 more to go to get back to my lowest ... i am still plugging away! 

 

but thanks for the comment!
