Back to Basics - Week 3

Finally, blogger cooperated!!
I actually saw 225.4 on Thursday...but it didn't stick around!!

2 pounds - I'm still celebrating this as a loss!!! {I was going to post my scale pic but Blogger is being a pain} Tomorrow is FILL DAY. SO, I'm hoping for an astronomical loss next week. (3 pounds maybe?? LOL)

**I ate a biscuit today. A WHOLE biscuit!!! Not a fluffy buttermilk biscuit....one of those flat Hungry Jack ones...but it was still bread.

I made the MOST AMAZING roast today for my grandparents!! I actually started it last night. It was the most beautiful black Angus roast ever!! It was pretty tasty, too!!!

Found out this morning that four students got into an accident last night. The car looked like a crushed tin can. The driver has head trauma and a broken neck, one has a punctured lung and the other walked away with scrapes and bruises. The fourth had to have some sort of surgery on her ribs. It breaks my heart for these girls. Being a teacher you get close to so many students and in my school district we (teachers) are sometimes the only stability they have in their lives. It's so easy to get close to these kids and all I want to do is protect them.

So, now I'm off to find some grub....last solids I'll have for a few days!! My surgeon's "fill instructions" are 3 days of liquids, 3 days of mushies and the progress to solid foods. It's like being post-surgery all over again!!!

    So sorry to hear about your students. I imagine being a teacher is one of the most heart wrenching jobs out there for several reasons, but also very rewarding! Good job on the loss. and good luck with the fill!
