Valentines Day ~ Lap Band Style

My Shit is tight.  Yes, that's right. The band is super tight ~ not in a bad way at all.


Yesterday I was fiending for some cupcakes..you know the valentines ones with the sugary gooey pink frosting that every bakery has right now.  I held it off for four hours and then broke down ~ I figured if I wanted THAT bad to go for it.  I bought a bunch of them for the office and cut the tops off two ~ that's all I really wanted anyway ~ but like a good girl I ate my lunch first...sauteed Portobello mushroom ~ and dammit if I didn't fill up and have NO room for cupcakes...viva la band!  Don't worry I managed to get them down two hours later....
We went out last night for our Valentines dinner and once again my eyes are bigger than my stomach ...I had a few bites of salad and a few bite of Vegan Udon noodles and that was it.   I felt so full.  Like after thanksgiving full.
That really full feeling immediately made me feel guilty like I had just binged..but then I remembered that I hardly had anything to eat at all. So Yay!  Its working, big restriction!


I have been  lazy ass sloth ~ the opposite of a nastyass honey badger.  Haven't worked out since Saturday...eeek and its Tuesday!  I'm not sweating it too bad...sometimes I have to re-charge to go full steam ahead and its cold out.  So later today, I'll get in a run/bike.  Then going to spend the night with some girlfriends and having a Valentines "do-over" Tomorrow night with Mo. Long story....


I have realized that now i have do something about my shoulder.  Going to make an appt with an orthopedic surgeon next month...it still really hurts ~ 4 months now ~ and I can't do boot camp (which blows!)
So hopefully some PT will sort it out.  


Today is a big day work wise ~ I have the opportunity to work with a very successful person and grow my business.  It could mean a lot more money (alot more work too) and it could also mean I'll be going to see you all in Chicago!  Fingers Crossed.


I can't wait to hear how Ronnie's Valentines Day goes....living vicariously once again!  Hope it kicks ass!
