Blogging with Fattiude! Don’t be a fool, eat for fuel. Hallelujah!
Yesterday was my third visit to the weight loss surgery center and this time I met with the surgeon, (instead of the director) and went over some of the pre-op tests results that have come back.
My weighin at the office was 295 lbs, only a lb and half more than the home scale. The nurse [...]
Weight 293.5 lbs, which reflects another 1.5 lb drop for a total of 13 lbs since the new beginning four weeks ago. It also happens to be the weight I was when I first started this journey to health and this blog back on May 1, 2006 (see Weighin Summary for complete weekly updates). Once again proving that my [...]
I have been enjoying the combo I put together this week for my green smoothie.
1 banana
1 serving frozen peaches (no sugar added)
1 cucumber (skin and seeds removed)
2 oz reduced fat coconut milk
1 TBL of Aloe Vera juice
2 cups of water
The taste is light and refreshing. I added the coconut milk and aloe vera juice [...]
I tossed together a quick, easy and healthy soup this weekend and it came out so yummy I wanted to share the recipe here.
Since I’m always on a diet, I don’t cook very often so it was a real treat for me. Hubby does most of the cooking for himself and my daughter. But this week [...]
I need to VENT so please bear with me – plus this is my first week giving up diet sodas *sigh* so that adds to my being cranky.
I know I have to jump through a million hoops, have lots of tests, etc. etc. to get approved for weight loss surgery – but yesterday was [...]
This weekend I tried another combination and made a green smoothie.
I used 1 mango and about 2 oz of low fat coconut milk and a big bunch of parsley, along with 1 1/2 cups of water.
I tossed in way too much parsley because that was all I could taste. I wanted to use up what was left [...]
Weight 295 - a 5.5 lb loss from last week (for a total of 11.5 lbs since starting over).
I credit most of the loss to the 2 days at the beginning of the week – Sunday spent preparing for the tests on Monday taking tons of pills to clean out my intestines and not eating and Monday taking [...]
As I mentioned in my previous post, I was diagnosed with gastritis and Barrett’s esaphogus this past Monday, but the doctor gave me no instructions, no information, and doesn’t want to see me for two to three months.
I have NO symptoms at all, so I was a bit shocked by the diagnosis, and also completely [...]
I’m sure everything will work out eventually, but right now I’m not a happy camper. This past Monday I had the upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and colonoscopy done.
The preparation for the colonoscopy over the weekend was the usual hell and I was totally miserable by the time I arrived at the hospital Monday at 10 a.m. After [...]
Finally there is a web site that shows us once and for all the underlying cause of weight problems – This Is Why You’re Fat (“where dreams become heart attacks”). It’s a relative new site, but gaining a lot of popluarity. Be warned – you may gain a pound or two by just visiting. LOL
