Chocolate Makes Everything Better

8 Days Post-Surgery
Mood: Chocoholic
Weight Loss Status: 15 lbs

True story. I went to Vanderbilt today for my 1 week post-op appointment, and everything looks good! I'm getting all of my vitamins and protein in, am sufficiently hydrated, and the best news is (drum roll please)...

I've lost 15 pounds in 1 week!

I never thought it would be this much so soon, but I'm certainly happy about the results. 
As I was leaving Vanderbilt, I swung by the pharmacy to check out their vitamin selection (other than online, it's slim pickings in most pharmacies). I found these beauties below:
Calcet Citrate Creamy Bites (30 Count)
One of my biggest concerns about life after surgery was the elimination of one of my favorites... chocolate cake. Calcet now makes a Calcium Citrate supplement (which is required three times a day to get my calcium and vitamin d) in the form of chocolate cake bites. Magical. I had one earlier and my mind was blown. Now I have an excuse to eat chocolate or lemon cake three times a day to make my doctor happy.

Life is good.
