May 2, 2007

We have a new member in our family, Peenut (purposely spelled that

way), a wonderful black Chihuahua. God gave him to us because he

knows we will love him dearly, Zoe my daughter cat hates him but she

will learn to love him. We adopted him from on 18 year old who no

longer can take care of him. Peenut is about 1yr and 7-9months old

estimated, she never even took him to the vet. We went to Petco and

got him a new leash, toys, food, harness, treats and a book for us.

He was very duty when we picked him up and his leash was all chewed

up, not a good situation, the girl had left him out on the patio

alone for 1 week and a half, poor thing. He got bathed as soon is we

got home and he did very well. Peenut is very happy with us and did

great around my nephews yesterday. Now about my surgery, I been

trying more foods, low fat lasagna with vegetables and chicken, it

went down well. I also tried carne asada witch is broiled very thin

tender steak. Chicken stir fry w\ rice, Thai curry with rice and a

thinned crust slice of Hawaiian pizza with chicken instead of ham.

Now let me clarify that most of these dishes are home made with

healthier alternatives like chicken, lots of vegetables and low fat

cheeses. I know that if I try to eat out junk food it will probably

make me sick with all the fat in them. On Sunday we took the kids

out to TCBY and I had a 1/2cup of berry sorbet, witch only had

10grams of sugar, I did good with that. I need to watch my sugar

intake because of the Bypass, so I had to ask how much sugar a

serving had. The surgery has made me a label reader, I read every

food package even before I buy. I try to concentrate on protein and

fiber. I have incorporated more vegetables into my diet to prevent

constipation. I'm still drinking my isopure over lots of ice and

taking my vitamins just about everyday. I forget sometimes but very

seldom. My period will be here soon and Im not looking forward to

the weight in, maybe I will not do that.

I did weight in this morning, I could not help it. As I thought the

scale did not move. I think is my period but I do not know, I have

been working out, It could be muscle mass. I will see next week. I

pray that the scale moves, I feel good, just a little tired because

of my period. I have noticed that I'm able to eat a little more at

one meal but the next meal I can only eat a yogurt, weird, I thought

my pouch would hold the same amount of food each time.
