1. I haven't blogged since last weeks Ten Things Thursday. I also haven't totally kept up on reading blogs this week either. I never have time at work and when I get home it's filled with fun and exciting things like laundry, cleaning, and paying bills.
2. I went to my regular doctor for the first time since getting banded today. He commented on how much weight I have lost and asked me how I did it. Duuuhhhhh........you wrote the letter and ordered the tests for me to get lapband.
3. According to his scales/records I have lost 48 pounds.
4. I totally forgot to blog on my 5 month bandiversary. It was on Saturday. I was hoping to be at a 50 pound loss at the 5 month mark....but I am totally ok with the 48.
5. I made The Rockstar open our pool and start to get it ready since it had been so warm. Now it has been in the low 30's at night this week. I guess I won't be in the pool any time soon.
6. I love my new job, but I swear these people love to find a reason to eat. I have been there 5 weeks (and one of those was Spring Break) and they have had after school "social gatherings" 4 times that have involved a huge cake, brownies, chips, cookies, candy, pastries, soft drinks, punch, and much, much more.
7. Usually by this time of the year I have ordered a few swimsuits. I know a lot of people usually only have one, but since I wear one every day I usually have 5 or 6. I can't order any yet because I have no idea what size I wear. I do know that the ones I wore last year will big too big. I think I even have 2 or 3 with the tags still on them that will be too big. Maybe I will drag them out soon and post them for giveaway.
8. I am meeting some friends for dinner and drinks Saturday night. None of them have seen me since August when we all attended a teacher inservice together....48 pounds ago.
9. I have been totally sucking at the whole water thing lately.
10. Just in case you were wondering....Grey's is a new episode tonight :)

I think that my shopping has slowed because when I get online I don't know what size to order... so I don't buy much.
48 lbs in 5 months is fan-freaking-tastic! You should feel so proud of yourself!
