I do it every time....I see a new low on the scale, and I chillax with a day of "celebration eating", which always drives my weight backup. Yesterday, I saw 182.5, and while I didn't go hog-wild with eating, I went over my calories, and was pretty "snacky". You know, my way of saying "atta girl". Only the result is always a jump on the scale. Today, 184.0. TOM is here, so that may be a factor, but I don't want to make excuses. I must break this celebration cycle. If I had some extra money I could go shopping or get a massage, but I don't. So I need to just buclke down and do better.
On the port front, I am doing much better. Since my port was removed 3.5 weeks ago, I have no fluid in my band, but strangely, I still feel restriction, and the scale has moved down about five lbs. Go figure! My pain has decreased significantly, and my wound is healing nicely. I see my surgeon in two weeks, and I'll pick a surgery date with him. Ideally, he said 9-12 weeks from when my port was removed and definitely not before my wound is closed and healed (it's pretty close).
Took a recent weekend RV trip to the Grand Canyon. Three RVs filled with family and friends. It was great fun, and the views were as great as I remembered from my childhood. I'll leave you with a couple of shots:
Until Next Time,
