This is Me.

This is the story of my Weight Loss Surgery, namely the Vertical Gastric Sleeve. When I started this journey, I really wanted someone to tell me exactly what to expect, what to eat, what to do, etc, so I decided to chronicle my OWN journey.....to be able to look back on it, but also to possibly help someone else about to start theirs.

A Day in the Life - at work

6:20 am - Out of bed - after hitting the snooze twice.  I hit the floor running.

7:10 am - Out the door with both kids.  I drink a Muscle Milk on the way to work.

7:50 am - Morning coffee at work, flavored with Splenda and Heavy Cream.

8:30 am - First giant glass of unsweet tea with Splenda.  Did I tell you we got a tea machine in our office??  It's the most amazing thing, EVER!



10:00 am - I start feeling 'hungry', so I snack on 3 of my turkey jerky sticks.  

12:00 pm - Time for lunch!  Today is a new Healthy Choice option for me.....Crustless Chicken Pot Pie.  It was just 'ok'.  The dumplings were a little tough, but it was alright.  Definitely not one of my favorites.

1:30 pm - The latest I can hold out for my protein bar.  I did manage to avoid the peanut butter cups staring at me from the front desk.

3:30 pm - Second round of turkey jerky sticks, plus one string cheese.  This should hold me until dinner time.

5:30 pm - I'm headed home, but the boys talk me into going out to eat.  We wind up at our favorite local Mexican food place and I have their tortilla soup (best in town!!), which was what I had planned on having at home, so it worked out.

All in all, a good day.  Although I was ready for bed by 7:00, I did manage to keep my eyes open until 9:30.  Thank goodness it's almost Hump Day!
