Another list

1. As either a natural progression of gastric bypass post-operative-lazy-ass-ed-ness or as a result of only manufacturing a miniscule amount of breast milk these days, I’ve officially entered the phase of denial called “re-gain.”  Nine pounds people.  Five of which I gained months ago and four that decided to join the party around my waistline during the past two weeks.  This is a problem.  I feel like a giant flabby tub of blubber.
2. Work is weird.  Firstly, there’s the whole new-office adjustment taking place, which makes everyone feel off and out of their rhythms while wandering around searching for the envelopes and the plastic forks and wondering where everything is.  But there’s also the fact that I quit, like, two weeks ago.  And everyone (except the clients) knows, but not much else has been said about it.  I feel like I’m on death row or something.  It’s going to be an interesting month.
3. Which also means that the idea of even beginning to address item number one with a reasonable plan of attack is overly ambitious.  The next several weeks are going to be stressful.  There’s just no way around it.  For now, I plan to stay in denial about the number on the scale and make a modest attempt to keep it from getting any larger.  I did eat an entire box of Mike ‘n Ike’s the other day, all 1,000 calories of which didn’t help matters.  Today I hope to only eat half the box.  No promises.
4. Not a single fiber of my entire being feels like doing any actual work today.  Which sucks because the list is long.  I promise to start.  Soon.
5. I did clean the ENTIRE house on Saturday.  We’re talking window washing, vacuuming upstairs, and even scrubbing the kitchen floor.  So I’m not ALL lazy.  It was weird to wake up on Sunday morning in a clean house.  I kept feeling like I was supposed to be doing something, but couldn’t remember what.  It was nice!

I've put on some pounds too. Dammit. And I know I need to work to get them off NOW before they continue to creep up. What kind of WLS did you have?

I actually cleaned my apartment this weekend. i felt accomplished! :)

So with the stress and weight and work stuff, you'll be out of that office before you know it and then you can start focusing on other things, like eating better and spending time with the cutest boy in the world. :)
