Day 15

Week one of work is over and I'm glad to say the working helped to make me feel better. The pain I felt in my stomach while walking has vanished and it's much easier for me to get up from a sitting or laying down position.

Mom and Matt came over for dinner last night and it was very easy for me to sit down with them and enjoy my mashed spuds w/ gravy. I am finding that I need to eat slower though. It's getting easier for me to not have something to drink with my meals too, but I need to make a more conscious effort to drink between meals so I stay hydrated. The other day I had a cup of tea and about 6oz of juice when I got home.

I had to reschedule my first fill so now it's set for Saturday November 13th. Ken will be taking a projection class in Long Beach so he won't be home for 4 days/nights.

Even with the addition of mashed potatoes, I'm still losing. Down another 3lbs.
