Sorry I haven't been around. My life is harder since the surgery and my moods are bouncing once again. I see the shrink in a little over a week. Plus i have been sooo tired lately and havent been able to give up my nap. I wont be able to have one tomrrow though. and since i dont drink caffeeine i have to rely on water to wake me up. I got on the scale today and it said i was under 240. i can't believe it. this has been an amazing journey.

i posted new pictures in my album if anyone wants to take a look at them. i dont know how to do it on here. gabby has a friend over and im babysitting her tomrrow as well.

I am learning the hard way that some people just dont understand you no matter what you do, surgery or not. a really good friend and mentor of mine is now "causing trouble" let's just say. or rocking the boat might be a better expression.

sometimes i dont notice the weight loss but when we took some pictures outside with the timer today i really noticed it. i am melting away lol. i love it though. i cant wait for the new gym to open in june so i can work out more. i want to work up to 1 hr 5 days a week. right now its about 30 min 4 times a week

Hi Michelle
    I'm glad that the school year is over for you. It will be nice to have you on Monday chats. I make it to chat when I can, but unable at times.     Take care    Mag  

Gee, Rachel, I have no clue. Mine always comes with a scoop. What is the brand? Maybe the scoop has settled down in the container. Do your directions say level scope or heaping scoop?    Mag   

 Okay, this may be a dumb question, but I really don't know the answer.  Where do you get a scoop to use with your protein powder?  Mine doesn't come with one.

So excited, I am finally finished with school which means no more Monday night classes and I can finally join in on the chats! My surgeons office has a support group one Monday night a month and I haven't been able to make any of those either. I can finally make it to the one they are having on June 6th, the rest of the month I can join in with the rest of you on line. Haven't  been posting much since I was trying to finish up school. Feeling pretty good, tired at times. Doing Yoga and water exercises faithfully and walking when my knees are having a good day. Just had a round of Euflexa injections to the right knee so that should help. The director of nursing in my facility was once the head of the bariatric program where I had my surgery done. She has been very supportive and checks in with me at least once a week to make sure things are on the right track. It sure doesn't hurt having an extra pair of eyes, I think it keeps me on the straight and narrow! Happy Holiday Weekend to everyone.
