Finally Feeling Better!

So my foot is FINALLY feeling better.  Sunday was the first day I was able to actually walk around.  I left the house for the first time in four days to go with my mother in law to Best Buy.  We switched her over to Verizon with us.  She had Sprint with us, but Adam and I have a tendency to... switch phone carriers often (haha).  Seriously though, Sprint was giving Adam a lot of problems at his work and I was having issues around the house.  In any event, Verizon is way better for us :).  I am able to walk fine today, for the most part.  I still have some pain, but NOTHING like it was last week at all.

I found out a few days ago I am down right about 70 lbs :).  It feels good, but honestly I feel like I look exactly the same lol.  I know there has been a change, however, since none of my clothes fit me correctly, old clothes I haven't worn in 2 years fit me fine, and my ring doesn't fit on any fingers including my thumb lol.  It's weird, but cool at the same time.

So far I have found that I can do bread just fine.  I prefer it to be toasted as non toasted bread can be kind of gummy, but bread I am fine with.  I also had some Chinese noodles (Chicken Lo Mein) and was also fine with that.  What I wasn't fine with, however, was rice.  Rice can kiss my ass LOL.  I had literally three bites of rice from the Chinese food we ordered the other day.  Yeah - no.  I felt super full and gross after I ate it.  Also, microwaved eggs - not so much.  So far the eggs I like the best are poached or soft boiled (which is great since poached eggs are my favorite kind of eggs lol).

I was worried about the sugar count in Chobani yogurt (the fruit ones are like 15-19g sugar).  I've had it twice now, however, and did totally fine with it.  I imagine since it's natural sugar it's fine (I eat strawberries, for example, and do totally fine with those - a great treat btw is a few strawberries and some sugar free cool whip :D  NOMZ!).

I'm really loving making the personal pizzas from Shelley's website (http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com).  They are so good!  My favorite so far has been with this roasted garlic marinara sauce, turkey pepperoni, and grated parmigiana cheese :D  YUMMY!  I prefer parm to mozzarella as mozz just tends to be kind of gummy whereas parmigiana is perfect!  I think we are doing tacos tonight :)  I was thinking of going to the grocery store right now and trying to make shredded chicken tacos - I might go get the chicken and put it in the crock put on high - should only take about 5 hrs :D  Dinner is at 8 ish :) hehe.

Well, that's all for now kiddies :D  Have a great week, oh and Happy Easter to everyone coming up!  I am going to my future sister in law's parents house.  It should be a good time!
