Still...

I am still not smoking! Still on track! Still want someone to cancel so I can get to the Doc sooner!! But, it will happen when it is supposed to!

Seminar

OK.. so I went to the seminar. I am ready. LOL. Ok, really, I have to wait until April 24 to have my FIRST appointment?!?!? OK, must learn patience. I filled out the on-line survey.. WOW... what a lot! And so I get to call in the morning and get on the "Cancellation" list! WOO HOO I really liked Dr. Spencer. Funny - dry funny. So, I am ready to go! And have several other things to do... so let me get going!!

Step One... or is it Step 3?

I am not sure which step this is.. tonight is the seminar for Bon Secours... I am very excited! I think I ahve all what I need for tonight. I do need to make a list of diets I have tried in the last 29 or so years.. WOW... that is a LONG time.... since I was 13! And the bad thing is while I was heavy in high school, I was only in a 16-18! Not that bad... Sheesh...
So, I have stopped smoking! yea! Thank God for Ice Water - it has been a life saver!
I have made the decision - not an easy feat for me!
So I suppose this is step 3!
And inbetween I have researched the hell out of gastric bypass!

Monday

Well.. the great news is I am still NOT smoking!! WOOOO HOOOOO.... Tomorrow evening I go to the information session at bon secours - I am very excited! Of course, I will be honest, I am wanting the surgery NOW!!! Ok.. I really would like to have it in a month! But I just do not think that will happen! So, I will probably have to wait to July! Fun times!!! :(

Nicotine

WOW.. Let me say that I will not smoke again, as long as I remeber how hard getting the nicotine out of my system has been. I got home from work and slept - took Katie to practice - and slept till 945pm - than was out at midnite! Nuts!

I have had

MY LAST CIGARETTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What I need to start doing now!

1. Stop smoking - Today, March 11th, will be the day!
2. Exercise - walk! - The doggies will enjoy as well!
3. Chew chew - I do not chew my food as well as I should - nor as well as I will have to.
4. No liquid with meals - 30 min b4 or after - just to get in the habit!
5. No straw - This one is going to hurt --- my teeth
6. No soda - I can do it! I do not want to ruin the surgery
7. Small bites - again, now way I do this now!
8. lower caffeine intake -
9. Vitamins - need to take them EVERYDAY! !
