Lazy Day?
June 21, 2008
I was totally alone today while the husband went to play golf and pick up the toddler. What did I do with my 12 hours to myself?
NOTHING?!?
That’s right, absolutely nothing. I read, I watched a stupid movie, I posted a food idea, I cooked dinner for myself and I napped.
Actually, now that I say that, I guess those things are something. I just feel like I didn’t do anything.
Can you tell I’m trying to tell my inner overachiever it’s ok to take a day off.
IT’S OK TO TAKE A DAY OFF!
Ok, I’m good.
Tomorrow I’m taking the toddler out! We are going to stroll around the mall, hit the grocery store and the farm stand. Ahhh it feels good to have a plan and to have my little buddy back. Recovery is going well but I need to get out and start moving. The more I sit the stiffer I get.

I came across your site when I was researching chicory root/inulin. I finally ordered the Vitalicious sampler and spent several days trying their products thinking they would be the perfect food for a busy mom/teacher. They taste fabulous, are very healthy but my body can’t seem to take them. I get these horrendous cramps that last for hours. This was also a time I’ve been trying all the sugar free smoothies available (Jamba Juice, Freshen etc.). I’ve isolated it to three main ingredients… chicory, inulin and splenda in large amounts. I’m really bummed because I’ve had to really look carefully and read lables to ferret out these ingredients. I don’t know if I can keep my weight off without all those low-cal, sugar free goodies out there. I’m down from 205 to 139 since October 07. I just want to maintain at this point. I support your choice for surgeries to improve your body shape and contouring. To each her own. More power to you and a speedy recovery.
