Really? What was I thinking?

Lap Band News:
Hiking in the mountains two days after major surgery? Not the smartest move, but it was fun. The cooler temps were well worth the six mile drive to the trails. However I did feel some tummy muscle strain, so after that the remainder of my 30 minute walk remained on the streets and off the trails. I love where I live! I can almost always get outside and walk.

The no soda pop thing is starting to get to me. I know I am on the last leg of it not bothering me, but I am sooo not there yet!

This weekend I have ate a lot of hummus, probably to much. I also ate a container of frozen fat free yogurt in three days.  I am hungry. Very hungry. I have not had red meat since in about 50 days. I have had NO meat since my operation. The most solid food I have ate is cottage cheese.

I am also sleeping about ten hours a day. This is not normal for me. I am thinking increasing my vitamins more.

Finance News:
 So with my lap band and a current lawsuit from when we were both unemployed two years ago. I have added a large amount of payment plans to our budget. My lap band costs 250.00 a month for the next two years. And a van that I no longer owe, is going to cost 400.00 a month for the next 20 months. My oldest may start college this fall as well. So, in order to make up for the costs I am going to extreme coupon! So, please if you have coupons send them to me! My daughter and I have a very organized notebook. I am watching store adds verses coupons very closely.
