So what do you eat anyways?
Jan 03If I’ve said it before I’ve said it a million times. I’m a year out from surgery and probably should take a moment to reflect on where I’m at as far as my eating. So today I decided to take pictures of what I ate so you and I would both understand a bit better then seeing me write it out.
B-fast in the car while driving to work (6:45): One Premier Protein Drink
My ol' standby
Lunch (11:30): I didn’t prepare to be honest so I just bought a school lunch
Before
Just look at the color of that cheese
After
The mystery dessert I think was banana bread
Snack (4:30): low fat (not non-fat I can’t stand it) cottage cheese with a bit of sea salt
This really looks unappealing in a photo but I like it
I also had a fat pinch of shredded cheese as I put back the cottage cheese container but I didn’t take a picture of that
I was FREEZING so I jumped into bed while I waited for my baby and husband to get home and decided I might need more calories
Snack (5:15): Cinnamon Sugar Graham Cracker
The sugar glistens like glitter
My husband was craving some Korean food so we went out to try a Korean place in Denton I read about on Yelp. It wasn’t very good to be honest I ordered the bulgogi.
Dinner (7:00): Bulgogi, Rice (very little) tofu and one small piece of candied potato
Why does this have veggies on it? I don't think this is authentic
I split the order with my very VERY hungry son
Hungry Hungry Hippo
And this is what was left. Honestly I know my son ate more then me
Nom Nom Nom
Then I came home and ate two marshmallows
On top of that I drank probably six glasses of water. Water is my struggle.
So that’s my day as far as food is concerned.
I didn’t workout tonight. I have something going on with my knee and I don’t want to press it and jack it up anymore.
A year (plus some) in photos: what does 97lbs look like?
Jan 01So I went looking for photos for this post and I have two things to note
1. I don’t take pictures of myself very often
2. If I take pictures of myself they aren’t full body shots
You will need to use some imagination for this but here’s a year in review of my first year with the sleeve

Oct 13Ahhh the school photo. When you are young they are the hallmark to your development. When you get older it’s a bit strange – what the heck do you do with them? Send them to my mom? Put them on the fridge??? Mostly they hang out rolling around in my desk drawer. I got my photos for this year and chunked them in my ever so unorganized desk- only to find the photos from the 10-11 school year right next to them. So I took a minute out of my busy day to have a “holy shit” moment.
My eyebrows are shrinking and my forehead is growing....wtf
Granted, in both of them I look like a confused parrot- but the change is pretty obvious.
How you feelin’?

I know I haven’t really written much in awhile. I will get around to it eventually. I’m doing well…and slipping at times but then I pick myself up- dust off and get right back on the train. More on that later.
