One Day Closer to the Weekend …
Monique @ 8:14 pm I was able to sleep in this morning since I was going to the doctor’s, but I still managed to hit snooze about a zillion times so that when I finally got out of bed, it was 20 minutes before I had to leave. Ugh. I was insanely tired all day; in fact, I felt like I could have fallen asleep at my desk this afternoon.
The nutrition class was interesting … although I discovered that I have gained 5.7 lbs from my initial consult. Ugh. That’s 5.7 lbs I need to lose ASAP. Double ugh. But, my mindset has somewhat changed. When I first decided to have this surgery, I wanted to eat anything and everything that I wouldn’t be able to eat afterwards. Now, I’m just like, eh, whatever. Don’t get me wrong, there’s definitely room for improvement in my diet … now it’s just time to get cracking.
I worked out again with the trainer tonight. I was a hot mess. I was just dragging … and I was holding my breath (a bad habit I have), something that I haven’t done in quite a while. I was worn out. We did talk about how much my balance has improved, something I noticed last week. I can do squats and lunges without wobbling or feeling like I am going to fall over. Well, for the most part.

I hate mornings like that. Sorry, I haven’t been reading your blog for a long time. What kind of surgery did you have or have you not had it already?

Colin — I’m going to have gastric bypass surgery sometime in the next few months. I have a few things left to do before I get approval from my insurance company. Then I’ll have a stomach the size of a walnut. Hooray! LOL

Wow, that’s a tad drastic! I hope everything goes well.

Tori — I’m sure I will be talking to you much more once I move along in the process. I particularly like the people who tell you not to lose too much weight. It’s usually the skinny little bitches who say that too.
