Today has been a good day! I woke up and my scale had finally dropped out of the bloody 150's and into the fabulous 140's! I was at 149 so I know I have to be extra good so I dont creep back to 150! I am 4 lbs from my goal I had 47 days to do it and it's only been 10! I might just get those extra pounds off after all. 145 is my dr's goal weight for me, but when I started this journey I thought it was 138 so my mind was always forcused on that number. I may still shoot for it depending on how I look and feel. I dont want to look sickly and everyone says they think I will.

I had a job interview today that went very well. It is for the company I left 2 years ago to come to my job now. I left on great terms so they are very "excited" to have me applying again.

They didnt recognize me. I didnt have my surgery until I left there. It was funny I road up in the elevator with one of my closet old co-workers and I could see in his face he knew I was someone he should know, but couldnt place it. So after my interview the manager took me to his desk and told him he wanted to introduce me to someone. he stood up shook my hand and said Hi I am (and said his name which I am omitting) and I said Hi I am Sher (stated last name) and he said I knew a (stated my last name) once and then you could see it all click in his head that I was that person. He was just in amazement. The manager told him he had to do a double take he didnt think I was me either. He saw a woman sitting waiting and still looked around for me then realized it was me. I stopped by my old supv desk and he emailed me later and said I look great he is jealous! It made me feel very good about myself.

It's things like this that are helping me sit here and blog instead of eating. I am feeling hungry.

So my daily accountability so far:

Breakfast: Carbmaster yogurt

Lunch: Chicken salad sandwich on a sandwich thin and then some extra just chicken salad on the side

Snack: I did have about a cup and a half of cooked popcorn but not the whole bag which I have been known to eat (yes even after surgery) i threw the rest away so i wouldnt eat anymore

Snack: EAS Protein Drink

I dont blog that I drink water but I do get in all of my water daily. More then I need to drink usually. And it has crystal light in it.
I have been refraining from drinking 30 minutes after I eat. Which I got very bad at.

Overall I am feeling good today!
