Morning everyone.
a gorgeous day with laundry being done and hung outside for that amazing fresh linen smell.
caloris were good. Still no energy whatsoever. My neighbours were down and out for a month with whatever this is. Not a cheery thought.
Lorna thinking of you.
Happy Sat all!
Sunny Saturday here. Paula, my alarm is set for 4:55, but I am usually awake and up before it goes off. I'm finding it difficult to adjust to sleeping alone, I'd guess.
127.6 today. Helping a friend move today, and planning on part of a piece of whole wheat crust meat pizza for dinner. I'll make sure to eat the cheese/meat before a couple of bites of crust. This will be the first time I've had pizza in over a year. I have always been a beer and pizza girl, but beer no longer sounds remotely good to me.... so that adjustment is easy peasy.
Linda.. thought of you and Violet and Lake Louise yesterday. Hope you took a picture. Diane... the puppies are adorable !! Hope you get a snuggle soon. Mary... rock on Shelf..here's to a smooth re-entry from vacation. Paula... when is son #2 due back home ? Devon.. nice tome traveling into next week's goal ! Bonnie.. always eager to hear how you navigate your social events. Lorna... still sending positive thoughts your way. I appreciate you all... apologies if I overlooked anyone. Working from memory.

Any pizza toppings I have had have been unbearably salty and I am not tempted to have more than a bite or two. So weird to think that I could have enjoyed multiple slices pre VSG. Of course you can better control that since you are making your own. What did you put on for toppings?

I have a vivid memory of being in a hotel room in Vegas alone and for the first and only time in my life, eating an entire pizza. It was at the time when I was so disgusted with myself that I decided I would do absolutely f%#£ing ANYTHING to get thin again. I had VSG about two months later in Mexico. If I lived, great, but if I died, that would be okay too. That's how desperate I felt when I was eating that pizza. It's an incredibly sad memory

Good Morning...Our big plans are mowing the lawn, washing and cleaning cars and buying and planting flowers. Hubby wants to take a leisurely drive after we're finished.
Calories were over yesterday....scale is 160.6# I'm grazing, too much...acknowledging this and trying to correct it.
Live in recovery!
Happy Saturday!
