Last Week's Weigh In & Other Things

I signed up for WeightWatchers meetings again and will be going on Wednesday afternoons. Last week I went to the 5:15 meeting and this week I will be going to the 9:00am meeting since my surgery is at 1:30.

Last Wednesday Weigh In:
Weigh In:-1.4
Total Pounds Lost: -1.4
Pounds to Lose: 101.8

My stats are going from the last time I was at a meeting instead of my tally of home weigh ins. So, I still lost which is great!

I spent the weekend in Taylorville so my food wasn't the greatest, but I did a LOT better than I usually do when I am there so I am proud of myself. I am -23 right now and I am a little disappointed about that but again, once my gallbladder is out and I am not eating so many bland carbohydrates and can get back to eating more fruit and vegetables things will be a lot better.

Hyatt.... my poor, poor dog. The vet is still waiting on results to come back from the lab so that we can (hopefully) treat whatever is wrong with him. He is miserable. That's all I can say. He doesn't do anything but sigh heavily and sleep. He takes his medicine OK and he still drinks water but I haven't really seen him eat much and he isn't walking on his back left leg at all. His paw is so swollen. There just isn't anything we can do until we know 100% what it is that is causing him such pain and all of those sores.
"I do not like the cone of shame."

He is so pathetic. You can't help but feel sorry for him. See his legs? His hair is missing like that all over his body and the sores bleed and the scabs just fall off. I wish I could just cure him so he could go back to being a normal happy dog.













While at mom and dad's this weekend I ended up going out behind their house (they have about an acre of land) and I took a fruit picker and this was my bounty from their trees!

Obviously there will be more apples come fall, but the pears are plentiful and gorgeous. They are also delicious. They are 100% organic because my parents do not spray the trees at all. They just let them naturally produce the fruit and basically leave them alone and that is what we end up with. I told my mom I wanted to make a pear pie with a brown sugar crumble on top. I also want to make pear tarts. YUM! (Again, that was just one morning of me picking.)









Well, I don't have much more to say. I am just trying to make it through my day and counting down the hours until surgery on Wednesday!
