March 14th has come and gone with a blur, 70 lbs gone and I fell into the trap of complacency, yup me, the girl who said I wouldnt get lazy welp that was a big fat lie I told myself. My journey has not been one without complications, 4 EGDS and strretches later I am able to eat food, there are days my tummy is just tight so I stick with liquids, one of those liquids happened to be wine, almost a bottle every 2 days, and on a good day a whole freakin bottle, no wonder I am still the same weight I was last month, wine is evil, lol....but I caught on real quick, and wine lost, I won, and will persevere, I didnt alter my insides for NO reason now did I?? nope nosireee bob!! My mom fell ill last week and passed out, was taken by ambulance to ER and placed in ICU ona ventilator, 1 week later she came home with a 2nd chance, when I was in the ER with her I thought she was going to die, she had pulmonary edema (fluid on her lungs) and was diagnosed with congestive heart failure, so now I am her caregiver at home in addidtion to my full time RN job at the hospital. I was stressed, wine was there.
SO last night I drank my last glass of wine for awhile, a bit in moderation is fine, but I went overboard. I startted the gym today and a few days ago I started couck 2 five k and have been loving it, me the one who hated running actually enjoys each day, if my legs are super sore I rest a day, and I dont dwell on it, rest is GOOD!
I am logging my food again, concentrating on my protein and vitamins and getting my exercise on.

I hope I can help one person stay away from this trap that we can all fall into. it was kinda scary but now all is well.

How is everyone doing?? I need to cath up.
