Earlier this week I visited with my Dr. about the swelling in my legs and as always talk came around to my weight. After much discussion about things like the four letter word diet and even bariatric surgery, it was decided that at this time surgery is not the answer for me. Instead I have to start with another visit with Tyler this week, with my food journal in hand. Then visits will be once a month. He wants to look at my journal and see what and how much I am eating, along with steps take and how much exercising I am doing. So the journal starts in earnest tomorrow. He also wants to check my blog once in a while to see what I am posting. I know he will be looking at both my recipe blog and this one. I do have a number of healthy recipes I want to try and if they are good they will be posted here. I told him I will never quit cooking because it is in y genes and I have been cooking since I was about 12 years old. And that was a long time ago. I also told Tyler my 40th wedding anniversary is coming up and the entry for that day will probably be I ate to much and nothing else.
I will probably post recipes in the middle of the week and Sunday night will be a wrap up of the progress I made that week along with cartoons about weight loss. The reason for this is I have a number of other blogs that need my attention and once a week or so is all I will be posting on those sites.
Hopefully in mid April I will be off the Warfrin and I can go back to my green smoothies every morning. I wasn't doing them when I first started the Warfrin and so it would have screwed my numbers up to badly I didn't want to try and adjust them, I just wanted to get through this little adventure. I have been told first blot clot is 6 months on Warfrin and the second one will mean Warfrin for life. If that becomes the case I will make the necessary adjustments because I miss the green smoothies. They gave me energy and I usually wasn't hungry. I have been saving a lot of recipes that I want to try. So mid April please hurry and get here.
With that being said, I think I will close tonight.
