Today is 8 weeks since surgery but I don't have an update on my weight....I am on a little mini vacay and there is not a scale here. I am housesitting for a friend at their lakehouse while they are out of town. Horrible horrible deal right?? Even worse, I leave the lake job and head to my old hometown to spend a week at the beach. I'll take my scale down there with me!
It is harder to focus on my meals, eating habits etc when I am away from home. Especially way out where I am staying this weekend. I am far from any grocery store. I packed up everything I could to bring with me but still hard.....especially when it isn't what I am in the mood to eat. I have been using up all my fruit and greek yogurt for smoothies instead and doing fine with that. I'll go to the grocery store when I get to Pensacola. Will be a lot easier to plan my meals there and soooooooo much fresh seafood. No doubt I will bring a lot of that back to Birmingham! Will post a weight update as soon as I can weigh.
Made a hamburger with diced green pepper and onion in it last nite. Melted some cheese on top. Cooked some green beans and red potatoes together. Ate it....and threw it up. I do believe I read somewhere that red meat really isn't a good place to go. Well, it isn't. Next......
I did sign up to do something crazy,crazy,wild, fun and unforgettable with some friends!! The Warrior Dash on October 6th in Warrior, Alabama. Click on "Warrior Dash" above to check it out. This is a world wide program. I will also be a St Jude Warrior so will be hitting everyone up for donations so I can raise money for St. Jude AND....earn a free shower after the race. If you checked out the link, you'll see why I'll need a shower. I don't care how far behind I get, how much someone has to help me or how beat up and sore I get. I want to do this. I want to finish this covered in mud, scrapes, bruises and with my friends. This is one of those things I want to do because I am healthy enough to do it now. I am hoping I can get my cardiovascular and core strength up enough to be ready to do this by October 6th! Will get a personal trainer to help me with this. I am in the 1:00 group and will find some way to get lots of pics. I'll need proof no doubt that I am a WARRIOR!!
