The Slug Is Gaining Momentum

Well today was a pretty positive day. I took my soon to the mall to get his picture made with santa. I must say he was not the best santa I have ever seen. He was bone thine and appeared to falling asleep in between childre. It made me think of bad santa! Today I went to my doctor. I wasn't suppose to go til the 8th of January but they had a cancellation. He put me on phentermine 15 mg. I really hope it helps with my appetite. At the mall I saw some friends from high school. I was so embarassed I hate seeing people looking like this! I am going to try and take the new medicine in the morning and see if it helps.

Hell hath no fury

 

I will be skinny DAMNIT. Hell hath no fury like a fat chick scorned. This guy I was seeing has been pretty much treating my like shit. He thinks because I'm overweight that no one else will want me. He so has another thing coming. He doesn't think I will ever loose the wieght because actually I have been gaining the whole time we have been seeing each other. He says the perfect girl should be a size 11. I am a size 20, I think he should go find a size 11 and kiss my skinny ass when i walk by him in a size 5. GRHHHH.

I called the doctor

First thing this morning I called my doctor to make an appointment. There has to be something he can do to help.  After my despair yesterday I decided I really do need additonal help with my weight loss. I couldn't get an appointment until January 8th. So for the next three weeks I do plan on continuing to try to lose weight and see where I get. I am going to start a food journal that I keep with me at all times and then I can copy it on to here. That way I can keep up with every little calore. I am kinda scared to start because the last time I actually counted all of  my calories i was eating 5,000 - 6,000 calories per day. I bought some water to day to try and phase out all the soda I drink. I am not even going to think about coming of Dr. Pepper cold turkey! I didn't do as good an physical acitvity as I should have today. I didn't take a nap thought. I usually go to sleep when I put my son down for a nap. I really hope the doctors offers some help. I have talked to a different doctor about it before and she pretty much just said she doesn't treat obesity. The doctor I have made an appointment with is my family doctor that I have seen since I was a baby. I had thought about going to one of those weight loss clinics but they are  so expensive. The one that is closest to me charges 300 dollars the first week and 70 a week thereafter. I could work out with a persnal trainer once a week for that!  I am not going to weight myself until next week so we will see if any of this is working.

I don't think I can do it

 

Today was the first day that I was going to impllement my whole baby step into weight loss plan. I am just super depressed. I decided to have a good play with my son for some excercise, but i ended up panting and in pain within minutes. My mother offered to take me to dinner and of course I went. After gobbling down a ton of chinese food, my mother brought up that I might need help. Duh , of course I need help. I have gained over 40 pounds in a year! I am going to call and try and get an appointment with my doctor tomorrow. Maybe he can give me something to help me control the cravings. I feel like I am a crack addict or something except instead of a rock I want food. It was only about an hour ago that I ate dinner and I am already thinking about what I can eat now! This has been a very frustrating day.

Baby Steps

 

Okay, I am going to try to do this a little bit at a time. I am 21 years old 5'1 and 187 pounds. I dont even have the energy to play with my 18 month old son. I just had to start buying my clothes in a size 20 or 2x. I am exhausted all the time and I hurt all over. I have a pretty large goal but I am determined to reach it.  I want to measure this weight loss not just on the scale but how I feel. Right now its difficult to shave my legs, I can't get comfortable in bed because of my size. I can't walk up the stairs at school without stopping at the top to catch my breath. When I drive I have to lean my seat back so i have room for my gut! I have been asked if I was pregnant at least twice in the past couple of months. There is no reason that i should be this miserable in my own skin!
 
Another biggie for me is my sons health as well. He isn't even two and he knows that when you drive up to a window you are suppose to get food. I feel like a horrible mother because I fix the fatty foods I like and thats what my son eats. I never want him to struggle with his weight and I know I have to lead by example and live the healthy lifestyle that I want him to have.
