Sugar Free Candy????

Another disappointment.It did satisfy the sweet tooth...but in NO WAY was I desiring to eat the entire bag like I've done in my past.....They were just, "OK"....and I am not tempted....it's really weird how my tastes are changing....I know all of you warned me this would happen...but, it's a bit freaky!!
I did "creatively" eat SUSHI finally while in NYC this week. (for those who don't know...rice is off limits for about a year...b/c it expands in your tummy after eatting and can stretch out your pouch and/or make you very uncomfortable/sick).....I've been wanting it sooooooo much, and if you've ever been in NY, you'll know that there is a place to eat SUSHI everywhere!!!! Finally I decided that I'd get the sushi plate....and cut open the rice/seaweed paper part....and eat the insides....just eating a little portion of the rice. OH!!! LOVED IT!!! And didn't get sick - this was soooooo exciting!
AND I DID NOT OVEREAT!!!

Krispy Kreme Donuts....

Ok.....My uncle just brought 2 doz. Krispy Kreme hot donuts into our lodge...and coffee is brewing....

Oh, I'm trying to convince my hubby to go get one...and let me have the smallest bite. OH....have I told you I've been dreaming of Krispy Kremes??

Oh my they smell sooo good!! OKAY...he finally did.....and I took a tiny bite.....WOW! Soooooo amazing for the bite...and as I was chewing and it got mushy - not so great.

This makes me wonder....hmmmmm? Have I really ever ate a Krispy Kreme donut....I think I've always inhaled them.....wow. It tasted greasy...not so good...and the sugary tast went away...I really hope that it was not a lot of sugar.... that bite was not worth it AT ALL!!!!

If you are losing weight....

What are the things you "Can't wait for?"
I have a short list started in my mind...but, I'm sure everyone can relate to this...and there might be some on your list that I'm excited about for me to.....I'd love to hear what you are excited about for your WL....So....here are mine in no particular order:
  • Crossing my legs
  • Seeing my face again...the thinner heart-shaped face...
  • wearing my size 14 bootcut, mid rise jeans. (I'm saving them...and love them...)
  • fitting in a roller coaster ride
  • Making my "Wedding Weight - 220#"
  • Making my "10 year reunion Weight - 183#" (5# less than my graduation weight)
  • Wearing some of the 'coolest' clothes I've designed...they are all about sizes 10-14.
  • Creative Hanky Panky...LOL!!
  • Going to the park with my daughter w/o the fear of not being able to catch up w/ her if I need to...
  • walking up stairs and not getting "out of breath"
So....what about you??

Journal: 2 mos. Post Op

It's hard to see the difference for me....even though I'm 52# lighter. I do know that being 266#'s is an amazing accomplishment b/c every time I've done WW or Curves....I have had trouble getting out of the 270's!!
So, even though it's hard to see it...and celebrate the way I look....I will celebrate just being out of the 270's....this is a huge accomplishment.
I'm also very excited that I'm 50# lighter at my cousin's wedding...that is what I've been hoping for...and know that I'll feel soooo much better...and find something to wear. LOL.
I'll post a head shot from the wedding when I get them.

The "orange" picture is my 4 weeks post-op pictures. (hard to tell that I've lost anything...although, I did lose 35# in the first month...and out of "THREEDOM"!)
The "green" are my 8 week post op pictures. Taken while we are traveling this summer. We are in the beautiful town of Grey....staying at our dear friends, Bod & Karen's home. (LOVE THEM!!) This photo is taken out in front of their home....wow, is it beautiful here!!
