Holy Hydration Batman!

I think I have drank more water today than I have in the last week. I dont know what the deal is. Obviously its good for me to be taking in a good amount of liquid. I was outside for a good portion of the day today. Maybe it was the heat that had me drinking. I found it more difficult today to take small sips and to spread them out. All I wanted to do was guzzle the entire bottle of water.

I also had a snow cone... or maybe rather an ice cone LOL. It was nice to be eat the same "something" that the rest of the people around me were eating.. even though it was a bit different. Everyone at the event I went to on post was eating! There was snow cones, cotton candy, cookies, chips, hot dogs, cake and who knows what else! Part of me really wanted that junk but Im determined to make this work!

Tomorrow should be a fun day. We are going up to Kings Dominion for the day. I'll be one of those cool people riding around in a motorized cart. I dont have a problem walking around for a little while but after a good 20 minutes of continual walking, im done for! Im not going to let my pain ruin everyones fun. I hope they don't mind that I bring water into the park. I've seen people take bottles of water to other theme parks so I dont see why they would.

So not too much else going on. Oh, I didn't take any pain medication all day today! Thats a huge improvement! I think im going to take one though here in a little bit before heading to bed. Getting comfortable in bed is still a challenge but is getting better. I typically sleep on my right side. Wouldn't ya know it, thats the side they placed my port for the band, and that area is what is still pretty tender. Eventually ill be able to sleep on my right side again... just like someday I will be able to eat normal food again. Im craving some potato soup. Perhaps not the "best" choice in food, but I should be able to eat some on Monday!

Oh yeah I cant forget todays weigh in. How does 346 sound? Sounds like something I havent seen for nearly 4 years! :)
