I hope you are all having a good day; mine was pretty good. I'm feeling good. I went to see the surgeon the other day and he wasn't such a jerk; I think the nutritionist stepped in and told him to take it easy on me. Anyway, that visit went well and I also had an opportunity for a sit-down with the nutritionist. I gave her print outs from my spark people account and she went over them and made some notes for me. My carbs are way too high and protein is way too low. The last 2 days I have really been watching it and bringing those numbers in where they should be. I gained two pounds overnight; I don't get that one, but I refuse to freak out about it either. I'm flirting with 199 and will get there before the end of the week, I hope; that's my goal. They also said that I have to cut way back on the caffeine. He doesn't mind regular coffee but it needs to be about 2 cups a day; I typically drink 2 pots daily. Beyond that my labs were pretty good except for Vit D and B-1 and I am taking additional supplements.
Went to water aerobics yesterday and today and had great workouts. I think tomorrow is going to have to be housework and bike riding.
Anyway, I guess I'll shut up now. I hope you all have a pleasant and restful evening.
