My first day back to work

Whew! Summer flew by..I am a public school teacher and today was my first day back to work. This is entering my 15th year of teaching! Who can believe that I have held down a job for 15 years??? ME EITHER!!! lol. Anyways,  today I am 13 month's post op... today I weighted in @ 142.5 My goal for today is to get in all of my protein, drink all of my water, and exercise. I did not get a chance to exercise today bc I stayed at work too long. As I sit here and reflect, I recall a time when I buried myself in my work...No longer am I doing that..but I must use my time wisely..tomorrow will be better.  I will take my gym clothes to work and change them so that will help me with my time management. I got to stay on schedule!!

Lately my favorite veggie has been zucchini squash and yellow squash. I take  a little bit of olive oil,a little bit of salt and a little bit of pepper and sauté it... Yummy! I take the squash,and I put it in half cup containers. Therefore, I have my Veggies prepped for the week. Do you meal prep? It save me a lot of time, and also assist me in making healthy choices.

Weight gain

This week I have been off track, eating out due to vacation, not limiting portion sizes, not drinking all of my decaffeinated tea, coffee, and water. So this morning, I got up drank 8 ounces of water, took my vitamins, and headed to the gym. I am going to call this: # operation HELL no move that scale!!!! I have gained 5 pounds! I am sure is water and sodium retention! However, I am back on track. I will: drink at least 64 oz of water, up my protein intake, get in all my vitamins, and measure my portions. I will not eat out all week! #operationHELLnomove that scale is in full effect.
