my first blog...

February 8, 2009



I don't know if anyone will ever see this besides my husband so I'm just going to post what I like to say. Here goes......

I am weight loss surgery obsessed! I live it, sleep it, breath it...and EAT it! I told myself before my surgery that I would not spend the rest of my life living the process. I intended on living the life I had always dreamed of, but here I am...obsessed with wls! I wake up every single morning amazed at how my life has changed. I wonder if there will come a day that I'll just be living my life without being amazed about the life I have.



I'm definitely not a nutrition or fitness freak, but I find myself obessing about some aspects of nutrition and fitness. I made a New Year's resolution to run a 5K this year, so I'll just be damned if I don't. I'm running with the C25K training program and I''m at week 6 now. I know I'll succeed at this project of mine. Now, mind you, if I don't start liking running by the time I run this 5K in March, I'm gonna move on to a different form of being active....like, say, maybe dancing. I LOVE dancing. I find it like an out of body experience. When I'm on the dance floor, I'm in pure bliss....it's almost like a "high"..."euphoria".



As far as nutrition goes, well, I have loved to cook and eat my entire life. In the family I grew up in, if a woman wasn't a good cook she wasn't a good woman. I CAN COOK! I'm learning how to cook "wls friendly" these days. I have plenty of recipes to share with anyone interested. I get most of my ideas from Eggface...gawwwd I love Shelly.



I don't want anyone that reads the rantings of mine to get the idea that I'm an expert on anything. What I do intend to do here is to show you the foods/recipes I enjoy or think you'll enjoy. I also intend to discover new active ideas, not all known as traditional exercise...we'll see how this thing goes...okie dokie...
