Tents... The New Fashion Trend!

Yesterday was the ever dramatic Monday morning clothes hell...

I wake up late (per usual) scramble for the shower, & attempt to get ready for work. I picked out clothes, momentarily forgetting I am in clothes purgatory. After removing myself from the shower, speed dry, still dripping attempt to dress myself. O looky! I'm wearing a TENT, strip & add to the I need to sell to pay for this venture pile. Attempt Two....... Wait for it......... Bigger Tent! Strip & add to the ever growing pile! (I know what a horrible problem to have) Attempt Three........ O YAY! Smaller Tent that will do until tomorrow.

Cut To This Morning

I wake up on time :) but still  scramble for the shower because I remember that I am still in clothes purgatory! I slip into my one & only pair of 22's that fits so far!!! Toss all 6 pairs of 26's into the sell pile with all the 28's! Have a momentary Happy Moment,  I will keep the sloppy 24's for a bit in case of laundry laziness. Time to move on to the un-tent like shirt mission..... Find a shirt on the first try Yippie!

3 Month Appointment

Weight 291

Yesterday was my 3 Month Check up with my Surgeon!!! He informed me I have already lost 30% of my weight. I have concluded that 64 lbs is the size of an 8 year old. I have lost a whole 8 year old from my body in 3 months, its AMAZING!

Of course they had to take my picture, still no fun maybe in 6 months when I'm even smaller. I also have to go into my General Practitioner's office & get some blood tests. Cross your fingers that I pass!!! I am going in today after work, so I should know this week.

We discussed my hairloss - ahhhhhh Im 29 can't start losing my hair yet! They suggested taking Biotin Pills, not sure if they will work but I'm up for it. Of course they also told me to eat MORE protein, like I can fin anymore protein if I tried! So starting today I am keeping a food journal for myself to see how much protein I am actually getting in!

So far today...

Zone Bar 12 Grams

37 grams by 10 AM ! ! ! !

TGIFF - Thank God it's Food Friday :(

Weight 316.7  

Breakfast
Click Protein Shake

Lunch
Chicken Pieces
O NOOOOOO a small piece of Brownie!!! I couldn't help it. It's so easy to be good in a controlled environment like home. I go to work & everything goes out the window. I know that sometimes it's ok to have a treat, but I feel so guilty when I do. I'm afraid of the slippery slope of trigger foods. (like brownies)
A cheese stick

Dinner
