200.8.... Say what!

I am so close to being in one hundred land... I can feel it. How is everyone? I know I haven't been active on here. But I've been emotionally drain and I just didn't feel like writing bad news on my blog. I am back on track now.

 

Today I met with Dr. Richardson for my follow up appointment from my surgery. I am not going to lie to you guys when I got there I was a little nervous. Why? Because this past weekend I had nothing but fried foods and the week before Mother Nature wasn't really nice to me because she made me eat chocolate! I mean half of a Butterfinger one day and the next day I had the other half. Oye on those days I made sure I burn at least 200 calories!

 

Anyway back to today's visit. When I had to get weighed I just looked away and when my nutritionist didn't say nothing I just thought the worse. So I start giving myself the "prep talk" while walking down to the examination room. Once we got in the he start going over my weight history then he said your current weight is 200.8 pounds. I looked at him and said Say what? He repeated it again. I was shocked and still am. I felt pretty bad because I was being a little selfish yesterday. My bestie Jon was having a bad day and I was playing the "wing women" role and was trying to find him a girl to pick up but I was too busy complaining about my calories intake and how about I was going off my healthy living lifestyle. That I absolutely failed my "wing womanly duties!"

 

Dr. Richardson said my incision looked fine and I will see him again next month so we can pick out my surgery date to get my port back in. My guess will be sometime in December but I will know more next month. And! He said I can do the walk for obesity walk this Saturday and I can start running again but I have to keep my incision covered. So guess what I will be doing tomorrow? Resume working on "Operation I want arms like Michelle Obama!" I probably won't resume running again until next weekend.

 

I text was my Bestie Jon and told hope after all the bitching I was doing last night I lost 2 pounds. He laughed congratulated me. I guess I need to calm down just a little bit because I know my support system would let me know if I need to slow down or need to make better food choices. Not only this is new to me but this is new to my support system. I still have a lot to learn but I think I got this! God is good!

 

 

Thank you for reading

 

 

 

Below is a pic of my coworker Kevin (he is the one on the right) He passed away 2 weeks ago. I wish have took an up to date picture with him instead of using this one. I miss him R.I.P my friend.

Sorry to hear about your friend. That is sad.

Good for you getting back on track. Mother Nature was mean to you, bad girl!

Good luck with your run. Just remember it doesn't matter where you come in, as long as you finish you will be a successful runner!
