Ho Hum Back at Work

First day back at work. I think I want to do something crazy like run down the hall naked or maybe make funny faces at my boss. Just thinking of ways to have them send me on stress leave! Only had 150 e-mails to delete and file when I got back after 4 weeks away. Not even any juicy gossip to excite the day except for the cute pictures and jokes sent my way. These cats made me laugh because there is always one in the crowd (I'm the one sneaking into the picture at the bottom left. The other one is like all the people I work with, although he does look a bit stoned). Can't wait for the end of the day. I have a dentist appointment at 1:00 to fix an abscessed tooth and then have to be back at work for a meeting. Can this day get any more exciting. OMG, it's time for lunch!

Back to the grind lunch. I have pulled beef in BBQ sauce, a whole wheat bun and coleslaw. We'll see how things go down. It went down totally smooth last night for dinner along with a couple of glasses of wine and some cupcakes. Dinner out on Saturday at a Thai restaurant also went down smooth except I didn't eat as much as normal, so a small victory. I am hungry and I am eating. Tomorrow should be more exciting: My first fill. Will I start to lose some weight or will I continue to be able to eat practically everything. Not looking for miracles here but I so want to move my ticker down.

Goody for the fill, boo for being back at work! I was thinking of you this morning, going back to work.

for your next lesson, please teach me how to "link blogs". I did it all wrong :(

I need to know how to link the name to the blog so you can just click on the name. Can you help me? Pretty please?

Somehow, I imagine your work is a lot less ho hum when YOU are there... I'll bet they were really happy to see you back. Even if the feeling wasn't mutual. :)

Well if it makes you feel any better, I'm taking a total of TWO days off work! I took a few weeks off last September for stress leave (dealing with my son) and just don't feel like I can take a lot of time off right now. I'd love to take four weeks off. I might get my wish if I get laid off. They are stringing us along right now.
Anxious to hear how you do with your fill. You did great with your pre-op diet!!

Congrats on your first fill! My best advice to you.... DO NOT LOOK AT THE NEEDLE!!!!!

I hate the first day back at work after a good break. Makes you feel like you've not even been away!

How exciting - first fill coming up. Whoo for that. It's all starting now.

Hope you manage to allay some of that stress at work. Nothing worse. xx

Sandy, I don't know how I've gone so long without following your blog. But I'm here now!

Good luck tomorrow with your fill. I did notice a difference with my first fill, although the restriction waxed and waned. At the very least, it's a step in the right direction!
