Thanks for checking in Cyndy.  It sounds like you have a lot going on, but that you are definitely in a better place of taking care of yourself since your last report.  Bravo and congratulations on not caving to that darn vending machine!!

got back from visiting my DD and family and had to spend the weekend recovering. going again this week for another few days so will be MIA again from wed-Sat.

had an easier time with the kids snacks...I made sure to take some low carb and wls friendly snacks for me to offset theirs. I always take my own snacks and food bit this time I went  little farther and when I knew they were going to have pnut butter and jelly sandwiches,I was ready with my wasa cracker with pnut butter and AllFruit on it.  Made their options less enticing since I had my own comparable item.

B 2 sausage links,2 eggs,colby cheese,salsa 2.4
L peanuts 6.1
S home made beef jerky 5
S peanuts 6.1
S triscuit 23
D omelet/meat,cheese,salsa 4.7

Things are the same..My Gram keeps hanging on..She will be 97 this March 16th. She has been A STRONG influence in my life...

I have lost the four pounds I gained..must have been water, but I also lost an extra two...Who Knows..STRESS can play a huge part in weight flucs.

I'm still going back and forth to the hospital, but I'm trying to do better with my eating...Carrying snacks that are friendly...It may be the stress and boredom, but I find myself looking at the sweets in the vending machine and after I stand there a min. are two...I see I have left a puddle of drool on the floor...=) but I have managed to walk away and just leave the evidence that I was there fighting a temptation battle..LOL

Thanks for your concern...that means more than you know..!

OMG, Lisa come to dinner tomorrow night.  Three little luscious meatballs smothered in lucious marinara is the perfect dinner for us.  I totally enjoyed them tonight and will tomorrow and the next and the next.

My good friend Nancy just moved back from Boston, into a condo upstairs from me.  She's the best Italian cook that I know.  She gave me a private cooking lesson at my request because I never met a red sauce that I liked prior to last week at my surgiversary party when a WLS friend brought turkey meatballs to the dinner.  I decided that I just had to learn how to do it.  I've been eating so darn simply since surgery.  No sauces, no nothing.  My life suddenly got a spark of flavor!  :)

I noticed hollandaise sauce in the fridge compartment at trader joe's last week and immediately thought of you.  I thought I'd better get some of that good stuff one of these days.

What a neat thing, cookin lessons!  Are these private lessons, or in a group?

Italian meatballs are the one thing that my mother always cooked well.  And to this day, my greatest comfort food in the world is soft, spicy meatballs in a lucious marinara.
