Update: You can find all weight loss/Slimband-related posts under the Weight Loss category or by clicking here. I am having what is probably the most delicious coffee drink ever to be created.

All is well
Just a quick post to let everyone know my surgery went well this morning! Turns out I had a hernia as well and they fixed it too. I’m still in pain and stuff, but no major complications. I should be back on my feet soon. Ok, back to bed for me!

One day left…
Well, I hope everyone had some nice holidays! I’m not going to bother listing anything I received this year–most of my “gift” was $3000 my parents gave me towards my surgery. Speaking of which, I’m going under the knife this Thursday, so I may be out of commission for a while! I’ve been trying my…

Dealing with an Alcoholic Guest
So I knew this day would come… the day in which we got a questionable booking from Airbnb.com. This week we are hosting a 44 year old business man who flew in from Singapore to visit his family in the GTA. I wasn’t around to receive him, but my roommate was. I was out at…

Event Planning: Holiday Dinner Party
Let the planning begin! I’m working on another event for me and my friends. This weekend I am hosting a formal holiday dinner party! How exciting!
