Friday Cafe and Cardio

Happy Friday everyone!!

Yesterday I felt more in control of my eating than I have in a long time. I am from Canada and went down to Vegas in 2010 to get my surgery done, because of this I haven't had access to any support groups up here. I talked to the surgeon's office about support groups they offer because we are heading down to Vegas in August and I will be attending my very first support group almost 4 years after my surgery... I am very excited!

if you can post it on your profile - I can post it in forum.. 

Hello.. Still feel effects of steroids.. but not as much.. crash will be tomorrow.. or not. 

In a meantime I need to make sure I drink a lot of water, shakes and eat lightly. 

I am trying to "rescue "a stray feral "special " kitten.. probably 4 weeks old or less.. When I found him on Tuesday in the company parking lot - he was skin and bones, apatic, really pitiful. Something is wrong with his neck - it is crooked.  I was not sure if it is going to live - but he is doing fine so far.  I have to take him home for the weekend.. probably will take him to the vet to be checked.  

I am sure my cat Emma will be pissed - but I can't leave him in the office bathroom for 2+ days.  He needs soft food - special milk for kittens (they sell that now) .  And to be with him.. and even wash him.. 

I have tendency to take more projects that I can handle.. At least my BF is a "big softie" for poor animals"  as I am ...so he is 100% on board. 

eats: 

coffee + miralax ( need to double and triple again) + a small coffee...

tea

chicken and some veggies.. (had too much for me as a first meal of the day...- but still not a lot)

Protein shake; almonds

Proteins shake (the vegan shakes are drinkable but not as yummy or whey) 

dinner: not sure....

have to run to take care of the kitten..is it he pitiful? he is tiny tiny - size on my hand - but with a very long tail..

 

 

 

 

My first cat was a kitten that was put in a bag and kids tried to drown him.  I took him to the vet and they got rid of the paracites.  He was a great cat, wild yet a house cat.  I hope your little guy pulls through.  Sometimes they turn out to be the best.  It is like their personality just keeps them going.  You are a kind heart for giving him a chance.  Tri

How exciting to go to a support group after 4 years.  Have you maintained over 100 lbs. weight loss?  I can't imagine how wonderful you must feel.  Have a great trip.  Tri

yes! I've been able to maintain a 100 lbs loss, at this point I am still down 106 lbs from my pre op weight, the most I had lost was almost 130. I am quite excited to attend a support group, even though it will be a one time thing I think/hope it will be a great motivation

THANK YOU for taking in that poor kitten.. That truly breaks my heart, I love animals! We have four cats and all were homeless and we took them in. They are wonderful and we love them so much!!! Please don't give up on that poor little kitten, give him/her lots of warmth and love and nutrition.
