Good Morning! Ah...I've finally earned a lazy weekend and I'm so excited to relax by the pool and do crossword puzzles for the next two days #wordnerd :)

My weight is at 118, which is the high end of my comfort range in maintenance this week. I'm not sure if it was the little indulgences from last weekend adding up, or just my body being *****y. I'm inclined to think "*****y" but I'm going to watch it and make better choices. 

I'm also making a recommitment to exercise. I've been really lazy lately. Skipping the gym and doing quick runs around the block instead of really pushing myself. Yesterday a few of us signed up for a "virtual" half marathon, which you do whenever/wherever it's convenient for you. I'm happy for the motivation and the supportive team of ladies here who will keep me honest :)

QOTD: Board games! What are your favorites? I am an aforementioned #wordnerd, so I love Scrabble and Bananagrams best. But I also can get into a good game of Pictionary, Trivial Pursuit and Monopoly. Unfortunately, I'm ridiculously competitive and no one ever wants to play with me. Whomp whomp...

I really don't have an eating plan yet because it's been weeks since I went to the grocery store, but I wanted to get us started... I'll come back later and post what I actually put on the menu!

  • High Weight before LapBand: 200 (2008)
  • High Weight before RNY: 160 (2015)
  • Lowest post-op weight: 110 (2016)
  • Maintenance Weight: 120 (2017-2019)
  • Battling Regain Weight: 135 (current)

Good morning JB! Happy weekend to us all. I'm sitting at the urgent care with my kids to get sports physicals and because little Z is sick. Hopefully not strep, that's what I'm thinking though. Looks to be a rainy day here so may just hunker down at home and watch movies this evening. B- 3 pieces bacon I'm working on now and Irish tea with SF creamer L- 3 oz southwest grilled chicken D- grilled cod packet (tried salmon last night and even though it tasted wonderful and was super moist I still yacked it up 30 minutes later. I'm sad, I want to be able to eat salmon but it looks like a no go for me). Have a great day!

One day in Kindergarten and he's already sick? Poor peanut!

I think I probably told you this already but salmon is on my "nope, never ever, ever, ever again" list. :(

Morning JB. I'm feeling pretty discouraged today.  Don't let anyone tell you that you can't put on 10 pounds in a week, because i just did it.  

So, this morning in recommitting to back on track. That means going completely protein forward, weighing and measuring everything,  and the big this is no mindless snacking.  

I know I'm going to have some serious carb withdrawals,  but I'm so scared after seeing the number 172.4 on the scale that I'm going to be super tight with my plan. 

1 year surgiversary is this week. 

quest protein shake made with almond milk and a light and fit for breakfast .  Coffee with SF coffeemate

Shrimp ****tail for lunch

Chicken breast for dinner

Cucumbers and feta and a premier protein vanilla for snacks. 

Totals

Calories 770 protein 129 carbs 26 fat 22

I have like zero food in the house,  so I'll be running shopping here soon to pick up the staples. 

JBQOTD i like monopoly and Life. I LOVE scrabble, but my hubby doesn't care for it and my oldest kid is dyslexic,  so i never play.  We do play Yahtzee sometimes.  But mostly i don't get to play because my toddler is needy. The baby has a cute game called The Sneaky Snacky Squirrel. He doesn't follow the rules yet, but we play it occasionally.  

Have a great weekend everyone!

Deanna I'm sure being on vacay for a week has done it and a few pounds have to be water. Don't get discouraged, it's a new day. Do it!

I can definitely put on 10 pounds in a week. I do find when I gain it that quickly, it is easier to lose than the stubborn weight we already have. Buckle down and it will be gone soon!!

Vacation is hard. I lived on protein bars on my last trip but now that I gave those up I don't know what I'll eat on this long road trip coming up. Beef jerky?

Others are right, it's probably mostly water and will come off quickly. Don't be discouraged!!
