Holding true to my commitment of eating better upon my return from vacation. I'm sitting here snacking on a Tomato instead of my usual afternoon chocolate donuts!

Speaking of food...

I'm still committed to not telling anyone about my surgery, but I do have a change at work I have to manage. Right now I sit in an office and in a completely different building that all the people that I work with on a daily basis. In the next month or two we'll all be consolidated and I'll not only be sitting with my peers, but will also have to move to a cubicle. So, I can no longer hide what I'm eating behind a door. Not that anyone will really be watching what I eat post-op, but it just makes me self conscious about it and maybe a little harder to hide my surgery.

Our department snack station is located in my cubicle, because I’ve got extra space. My manager already knew of my surgery plans, but today I sent a team email that said, “as some of you know, but most of you don’t, I’m having gastric bypass next week. So- is it cool if we relocate the Snacks? ”

This served to casually tell them something they would have noticed eventually and it got that delicious looking coffee cake someone brought in this morning the hell out of my face. 😂😂
