Saturday, Beautiful, Saturday!

It is getting so close to real springtime here.....and the last few days have been spring-like weather.  Love it!!  It gets me energized! 

Having this second chance with my band is also energizing me!!  I am so thankful!  I was down to 178 this morning....when I left for El Paso I weighed 182 on my scale.  *warning TMI*  I am extremely constipated right now....I am taking stool softeners, but they haven't worked yet....so once that problem is resolved, I will probably see a nice drop in the scale also!  ha ha ha ha!!  

I am doing fine on the liquid diet so far and complying.  I went out with a friend last night and we went to a bar afterwards.  I sat and sipped on lemon ice water.  The TV behind the bar had the Food Network on.  ARRGHHH!!!  Talk about torture!!  I kept looking up at the screen and I could feel my mouth watering and my stomach growling.  ha ha I know that I have to follow the doctror's orders without fail though....I am not taking a chance of losing "Journey" permanently.  No way!! 

Once I get back on to solid foods, I will need to find a substitue for my salty and crunchy cravings.  I can probably eat the soy crisps as long as they don't trigger my carb addiction.  We'll see.  I am just feeling good and so glad to be able to have my tool to help me get down to goal!  My OH friends have been absolutely incredible!  I love them all!!
