SO glad to hear that Marc is recovering so nicely!! And what a good wifey you're being!!
Congrats on being so far ahead on your weight loss! You guys look great....LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Christmas card...too cute!!!!
Have a good night!!!
I'm trying to be good! I'm about ready to put those cones they put around dogs on his hands so he'll stop touching/poking at his incisions!
Glad to hear things went well for Marc, and I liked hearing your reflections about the whole weight loss experience and how you are doing with it, I am glad your nutritionist was giving you some positive words... oh exercise is always hard. So you are not alone in that sentiment!
Chipotle, gotta love those burrito bowls!!! I can't eat a whole one either! They make very healthy options there, so good for you! much better than fried food, for sure! Maybe Marc can make them for you? I have a great recipie for Panko breadcrumb crusted chicken tenders -- I buy the chicken breast tenderloins you can get and while they are not AS fried -- they are crispy... my kids love them.. if they are good enough for Giada to make on the cooking channel, they can't be that bad!
I love love love love LOVE Chipotle. I love eating out so it gives me a healthy choice. I think I'm going to make my own chicken tenders this week. They'll end up being a lot healthier that way!
I got up and exercised this morning. I walked to the redbox to return our movies. I even walked passed the chicken finger place and avoided it!
Good for you resisting the chicken fingers
I've only been to Chipotle once and never tried the burrito bowls, but I'm addicted to the naked burritos at Qdoba.
I absolutely loved UP. I cried too, especially at the beginning. There's a DVD display of it at my store and every time I walk by I think of the beginning and almost want to cry.
I'm so ridiculous.
I'm never heard of Qdoba. Hmmmm.
I loved Up! It was great. I cried so many times. Marc really liked it too. Pixar makes such great movies.
LL, sounds like a fun TV watching Saturday! Up is really wonderful, isn't it? I mainly just watched it because so far I loved every Pixar film and then I was so surprised how wonderful the film was!
You know, I have been wondering about your weight loss in just the same way as your nutritionist said. Since you only got your first fill very recently, I had been thinking that so far all your weight loss must be due to you eating better with the help of your medical team! So congratulations on that acchievement! You really lost those pounds by working hard for it, like not getting chicken fingers!
And I just realized that postponing your January trip to October will mean that you will have lost even more weight until your next WDW visit, you will be running around all day because you have so much more energy!!
Thank you! I hadn't really thought of it that way before but since she pointed it out to me, I'm behaving even more.
In October I am going to be unstoppable!
Y'all are such a great support system to each other! I'm glad Marc is doing as well as can be expected.
Isn't your nutritionist sweet! My last one was a Nazi and I dreaded going to her. You are doing so very well. It makes me excited for summer to be here, although I'm absolutely terrified too. You are doing great though!!
Edited to say: We watched UP last night too. And I caught my husband wiping away a few tears of his own!! It was really wonderful, wasn't it?
Oh, I am so glad our nutritionist is kind. She really listens to what we say and helps come up with solutions. I think her weekend exercise suggestion was brilliant. I've already finished what I "have" to do this week. It's a good feeling. Almost makes me want to exercise tomorrow. Almost!
Awww, that is sweet about your husband. I don't think I have EVER seen Marc cry. EVER. I tell him he's heartless all the time.
YAY for a couch potato weekend, sometimes you just need those kind of days!!!! I had one yesterday so I will pay for it today, so much to do this afternoon when I get home from church LOL!!!!
Awww I really want to see UP I'm going to have to go get it so I can watch it!!! Last movie I saw was the new Transformers and I bawled at the end of it, so I can only imagine what will happen during UP LOL!!!
YAY for knowing you lost it all on your own!!! That is great Leslie!!
You have to get Up. You should just buy it because it's that good.
We watched Transformers 1 & 2 last weekend. I LOVED THEM. You haven't, watch the second one. Even better than the first!
I
Couch Potato Weekends! I plan on having one of those soon.
Hope Marc continues to feel better and avoids the yucky after-surgery feeling. I am sure he has an excellent nurse!
Good job resisting the chicken fingers. I am so proud of you!
Thanks CP! Marc is napping now, he got up a little too early I think and he was falling asleep on the couch.
I am glad that Marc is feeling better. Couch potato weekends are really nice. Very relaxing! Your weight loss is awesome! I am excited for you!
Thank you.
I think the couch potato weekend sounds like an awesome idea. I am totally supporting you, so have decided to join you this weekend being a couch potato.
Your weight loss is awesome and you really are doing it on your own until you have several fills-so you should be extremely proud of yourself. Good job!!!
I think you and Marc will be a great support system for each other, sometimes its nice to talk to someone who actually knows how you feel and what it is like!
yes, the support system is great. I was glad I could talk to you when I was recovering, it was helpful. Marc was really freaked out yesterday by all the tightness he was feeling but I told him I felt the same way, made him feel better.
I really can't believe how little I'm eating after this second fill and how I'm full for a long time.. Yay! It's working.
...I love both of them but each of them has their naughty moments...)
...it's a lovely fim though...
