Skinny Minny!

Surgery SUCKED!!! It was so unbelievably painful. In the recovery area I was given Demoral, Morphine and Vicodin....and I was still crying in pain. I'm glad it over with. I'm feeling much better today and I return to work tomorrow. The only good part is that my incisions are very small. One in my belly button that no one will ever notice in a couple weeks and one more on the lower left side of my abdomen (probably will barely notice it either). Not that it really matters because the stretch marks Kaitlyn left on my sides will prohibit me from ever wearing a tiny bikini again....its tankinis in my future from now on.

So on to Weight Watchers news...... I am down to 148.4. That's 1.8 lbs. lost last week, and almost 12 total. I never thought loosing weight would be so easy. I'm not allowed to do my crunches for 4 weeks, but until a couple days ago I was doing about 150 every night or other night. I do the online version of Weight Watchers and it is sooo easy. Only $16.95 a month...which is cheap actually compared to other sites and programs. It makes logging in my food so easy and quick. I also love the recipe tracker which allows you to log in the ingredients in your favorite recipes and get the points per serving. The website also has a huge library of about 1500 recipes....those who know me well know I love searching through recipes and I'm always making something different for my family. One of my (and Brandon's) favorites is Taco Chili....so easy to make and only 2 points per cup which really fills you up. We actually had it for dinner tonight. I also love the Applesauce Sour Cream Coffee Cake. It is so moist and delicious. I cut it into nine pieces for 3 points per piece and substitute Splenda Brown Sugar in and Light Sour Cream instead of fat free. I checked and the substitutions even themselves out for no additional points. Try it...you'll never know its low fat. My dad even loves it when I bring it to work for breakfast.

Well time to get back to the kids....It's been hard doing stuff with them being so sore, hopefully I'll be all healed up soon.
