Wow it was 60 yesterday and today 24 when I woke up. What a change. I am freezing. Hurry up spring.
I am feeling better today. My incision looked very angry today when I first got up but after the shower and being up it looks slightly better. No longer draining which is good. It is a good thing probably that it is sore because I am so tempted to hit the gym. I just want to walk and warm myself up.
I had shredded wheat this morning with honey and nuts. It is the same calories as the other plain but has slightly more sodium. For lunch I made a wrap. I have Danish sausages out thawing for supper and I plan on steaming a huge pile of broccoli to go with it. It will bum my son out but I love it. I still have 2 apples left and some applesauce I want to get rid of by Monday when I start phase 1. I am the only one in the family who seems to eat fruit.
I am upset that all that pineapple I ate and drank for the last 3 weeks didn't prevent my incisions from opening up. The doctor said it wasn't because of my working out which made me feel better. She thinks I am sensitive to the steri strips. Now I am mad at myself for not taking them off when they started to bother me so much. Maybe my incision wouldn't have opened up. After my shower I laid on my bed without a top on to let the air get to the incision and hopefully dry it out.
I wish South Beach had an actual place I could go to to weight in like WW. My insurance would cover it then. I think if I had to go weight in front of people I would do better. Cheat less often. WW is to expensive for me even with my insurance paying for alot of it.

Have you ever heard of TOPS? I think it's Take Off Pounds Sensibly. One woman on the Healthy 100+ WL board (I'll email you the link, it doesn't want to "drag" into here) has been doing it very successfully with a program designed by her doctor. A couple other women on the board are also going to join. If I remember correctly, each chapter makes it's own rules for fees but the one woman there pays $1.50 per week (nope, that wasn't a typo!) and there's a "fee" of $.25 when you gain from the previous WI. Here's the link for the TOPS organization if you want to see if they have this where you live. http://tops.org/ This is the kind of accountability and support you mean, right? A group of people, someone else weighing you once each week.
That's too bad you're the only one eating fruit! I wonder if it's a guy thing. Same thing over here and at my parents house, my Dad eats fruit in the form of pie or fruit breads. =) Or maybe some jam on a PB sandwich!
