Livin' Large No More: February 2011
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Livin' Large No More. Thursday, February 24, 2011. Wow, it's been well over a month since my last post. I have been reading everyone's blogs and commenting where I could. I just really haven't had much to report. No great NSV's or SV's for that matter. No major life accomplishments. Not even any drama. So hopefully I can get back into the swing of things there. I've been going 4 days a week for the past 3 weeks. That's not quite I had been doing pre-op, but a heck of a lot better than I've been d...8th F...

Livin' Large No More: September 2010
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Livin' Large No More. Tuesday, September 28, 2010. I'm nervous and excited. I just confirmed my surgery and reporting time with the hospital. I'm on the schedule for 9:30am which means I have to arrive at 7:30. That's nothing for me since I usually start work around 6:30, but the husband is going to have a little difficulty with this one. Friday I had my pre-op appt. Just some paperwork, some labs, a physical exam and a bunch of questions. (Mostly theirs). I'll update when I'm on the other side! Okay I'm...

Livin' Large No More: Perspective
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2011/03/perspective.html
Livin' Large No More. Wednesday, March 9, 2011. 2 posts from me in a week? But I'm pretty excited and wanted to share. I just got back from my check-in with my nutritionist. Not the one at my surgeon's office, the one I've been seeing since 1994. She, of course, weighed me. And although I feel that the weight was artificially low since I've been subsisting on primarily protein shakes for 2 days, it did reflect a substantial loss since the last time I saw her on Jan 19th. March 10, 2011 at 10:17 AM. Losin...

Livin' Large No More: Fast Forward to Today
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2011/05/fast-forward-to-today.html
Livin' Large No More. Wednesday, May 4, 2011. Fast Forward to Today. It's been way too long since I've posted. Part of it is I feel like I have nothing worthwhile to report. Part of it is I've been sort of at a stand still with my weight. I've been fighting with the same 5 pounds for the past month. I will do updates in bullet formation since everything is so all over the place. Happy Birthday to Me! And more like "how many different things can I try a small taste of? I'd rather not do that again. Bu...

Livin' Large No More: Fill #5
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2011/03/fill-5.html
Livin' Large No More. Tuesday, March 8, 2011. I'm getting to be an old pro at this. My surgeon does fills every 4 weeks for the 1st six months or so after surgery. I had my 5th fill yesterday and it was uneventful. I lost 1.5 lbs since Fill #4. (sadly this was up 1.2 lbs from my Sunday weight for the Spring Challenge.). I'm resisting the urge to say I "only" lost 1.5. I was feeling pretty bad about that and then I tried to reframe it (all those years of therapy are paying off! Theresa aka Tessie Rose.

Little Red Riding Hoods Adventures in Band Land: Hello Again!!
http://littleredridingbandland.blogspot.com/2014/03/hello-again.html
Tuesday, 4 March 2014. Goodness me it has been a very long time and for that I am sorry! I have a very good excuse though, I've been off having a baby! Our little bundle of joy is now 8 months old, and I feel it's time I get back to the weight loss. Now, when I originally disappeared from blog land, it wasn't because I was doing badly, in fact I was at my lowest ever weight. First appointment at the OB I weighed in at 69kg (152 pounds! So I went down to about 5ml in my 10ml band. It's currently Day 2 of ...

Little Red Riding Hoods Adventures in Band Land: 6 months!
http://littleredridingbandland.blogspot.com/2012/02/6-months.html
Sunday, 12 February 2012. Goodness how time flies! Speaking of flying, I'm currently winging my way back home after a quick weekend away to celebrate with my sister before her wedding. I'm on my second flight for the day, and the in-flight entertainment is identical to the last one. So, what better time than to draft a blog post (to be uploaded once on solid ground of course). I realised belatedly that Friday was 6 months since my surgery. So where am I sitting six months out? Chatting with my BFF who wa...

Little Red Riding Hoods Adventures in Band Land: May 2011
http://littleredridingbandland.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, 28 May 2011. Well, because it is Saturday where I am, but I still want to join in :). 1 When is the last time you got and gave a compliment? 2 What do you wear to bed? Whatever I have laying around, at the moment it is a pair of cotton long sleeve (and long pants) pj's. Sometimes nothing but rarely. 3 If you could pick your dream job - with no worries of shifts or money or bosses or commute - what would it be and where? Can you honestly recognize they are both equally hard? I've picked up a few...

Midlife Madness: August 2015
http://jerbrr22.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Half-Way Between Birth and Death. Trying to Keep a Sense of Humor as I inch Closer to Death. Wednesday, August 12, 2015. Working, Working, Working. Ten days of working, coming home, sleeping, waking up and going to work again. Yesterday I was felled by a migraine. It was tons of fun. Two more work days and I actually get two days off in a row. It's hard to take good care of residents when you're exhausted. Hard to be compassionate when they keep giving night shift more tasks every night.
