Obsessive, Complusive...CDO


Yes, you heard me right...I have CDO (I'm so OCD I have to put it in alphabetical order).

I told my family I wanted to get a second scale because my new one seemed a bit "bipolar." My teenage daughters told me I was getting obsessive and that if my dh went with me to buy a second scale, then he would be "enabling" me. (mind you I did buy a new scale a few weeks ago when my 7 year old scale broke). The children said they could picture the bathroom with dozens of scales and no place to walk. I was out of control.

My loving husband went with me to buy a second new scale. Now I can happily weigh myself on two different scales 300x a day. I'm CDO...and my name is Janice. :)

I thought my dh was pretty supportive about the whole scale thing until he gave me a quote, "A man who has one watch always knows the time, but a man who has two watches is never quite sure." Humph...I'm not going to take that personally. :)

Okay, I'm 5 weeks post-0p now and I can definitely feel the hunger. I can see where a fill will come in handy next week.

5 weeks post-op (and 10 days pre-op liquid diet), I have lost 19.8 lbs and 11.25" total.
Most came from:
3" from waist (this is good; I have a long way to go)
2" from thighs (hello, this is like the smallest part of my body)
1" from bust
3.5" from hips (I have the droopy butt/parachute pants that Queen Vickie mentioned)

I guess we don't get to choose where we lose it from, as long as we lose it.

Humor for the Day: Mother Superior called all the nuns together and said to them,'I must tell you all something. We have a case of gonorrhea in the convent.' 'Thank God,' said an elderly nun at the back. 'I'm so tired of chardonnay.

I have had a crazy schedule this week...next time up for air is Friday. I'm still going to try and do 30 min of reading blogs a day. I have lots of catching up to do. Miss you guys!
