Well, Hello! Why Doncha Stay A While?

Hello, restriction! Yay! As so many of you have mentioned before, things seem tighter in the morning and loosened up a lot by last night. I'm delighted the restriction is here and just hope it sticks around for a while.

This does, however, make taking my antibiotic a little tricky. The pills are HUGE, so I cut them in half after yesterday morning's fiasco. But even the two halves are big enough that I've had to wait till noon to take them.

Ah well. I should be done with the antibiotic in a few days.

I'm still officially on liquids today, although I did have the ricotta/tomato sauce combo last night for dinner and it went down fine. This morning, some hot tea and a few bites of very runny oatmeal. I'm working my way now through a smoothie but it's taking a while.

We ended up getting about 16 inches of snow, and it's so heavy it's still weighing down tree branches. I'm guessing we'll go out to play later this afternoon.

  1. Yahoo! A big welcome to restriction! Now make it stay!

  2. I had some monster antibiotics last fall - I did OK then, but not sure if I could get them down now. I guess we need to ask at the Dr. for small ones - last batch I had were really small.
    We missed the snow this time - just about an inch - hope you guys have playing.

  4. This is great, great news. Restriction for you ..yayyyyyyy.
    I just saw your list of reasons for losing up top. I love it!!! The one that really caught my eye was meeting old friends and not being embarrassed. This happened to me just recently. I bumped into a girl I hadn't seen in about 15 years and she didn't even blink. I am now just a 'normal' size and I just gave thanks for my band. If this had happened a year ago... I would have died. I was SO BIG!!

  5. Even worse than bumping into old friends is bumping into old BOYfriend. Luckily this hasn't happened to me, but I'd freak. Congrats on restriction.
