Before After

GOOD NEWS FOR ME.

I finally got approved for my heart caths and I'll have them next Wednsday.  I'll be so happy to get them over with and maybe know what's wrong with me.   I had a great time at my grandson's pre-school graduation last night.  They were so cute and so proud of their performances.

Diet wise I'm doing OK.   I'm still under 200 if my new scale is right.  I guess it's a slow but sure trip!

A NEW SCALE

I did manage to get to Curves for a short workout today.  Their scale said I lost another pound.....which my scale at home didn't show.  I decided to buy  a new digital scale and it says exactly 200.....so I'll use that number and restart from there.  I hope it's more accurate than my old scale.

I'm going to my grandson's pre-school graduation tonight.  Some people think that's silly, but he's really excited about it.  He loves to be on stage and they're giving a little performance too.  They are all soooo cute!  I can't wait.  Now I just have to figure out where to go for dinner where I can control myself!

PLAN SPOILED!

Poopie!  I was going to run to Curves when I went to the grocery store today and do at least a half workout, but hubby decided he wanted to go with me.  Curses....foiled again!  He NEVER goes to the store with me!   I never lie to him, I just don't tell him I'm going to Curves.   I wonder if he's suspicious??    I swear the man can read my mind!

IT'S GOING TO BE A GOOD DAY!

I'm going to sneak out to Curves again today and do a half workout.    I've been trying to jog around the house but hubby says no.   He says I have to wait till after my heart cath on Monday.  I don't see how I can lose without exercising.  I'd have to eat about 100 calories a day to lose an ounce.  I think I have a slow metabolism, but isn't that what most chubettes say....lol.   I need to see the scale go down or inches anyway to stick with it.  Maybe tomorrow!

HAPPY TUESDAY!

I snuck out to Curves yesterday and did half a workout, but it has to be better than nothing!  It's hard to get out since hubby retired and is home every day.  Maybe I'll try riding my bike after it's dark and cooler out.  The weather has been hot......87 degree average every day and there's still smoke in the air from all the forest fires...and there are no fires within 50 miles of us that I know of.  We have ash all over our cars.  Thursday it looked like heavy fog and burned your eyes and throat.  Florida and Georgia sure could use some rain.

Diet wise I'm not doing that bad, because luckily I haven't felt hungry....which is a VERY good thing....lol. 

I sure wish the scale went down as fast as it seems to go up!   I measured myself too and I'm the same.   Hopefully I'll one of those whoo hoo days where the scale goes down a couple of pounds or more from one day to the next!  I just love changing my weight graph.

Have a great day everyone!

NO CHANGES TODAY

No changes in the scale or tape measure today but I've not been going to Curves since the doc said to hold off,  but  I might sneak over and do a short workout.  I just have to make sure hubby doesn't know....hehehe.  I feel like I can't progress without exercise now that I've gotten used to it!   How can you hate something so much and still want to do it??  I'm so lazy I could just sit in my recliner all day and play games online or watch TV, but that doesn't help my progress.    My current goal is 190.  I think it's easier to think of 10 pounds at a time instead of 40.   I remember when it was 100 pounds I needed to lose and that seemed impossible.  This time losing will be harder because of no diet pills.  I can't even feel proud of the 90 pounds I lost 10 years ago because it was the pills that did it.  Hopefully this time I'll be more proud because I'll lose due to HARD work and MENTALLY doing it!

NOT UP OR DOWN.....AN OK THING!

Happy Mother's Day to any mothers who read this.   Really nothing new to post today except that I'm not going up on the scale.   Didn't go down either but that's fine.  Can't expect to lose every day.   I can't wait to get my heart caths done next week so I can get back to Curves since the doc said to stop working out till after the caths.   OMG....there must be something wrong with me....I miss exercise....lol.  Actually....I still HATE exercise, but I was seeing results.....THAT'S what I really miss!

UNDER 200 POUNDS....A GOOD THING!

I can't believe the scale said 198 today.   I'm so excited!   I'm going to try really, really hard to keep going down.  I'm finding that a small amount of food more often seems to work best for me right now. 

SLOWLY GETTING CLOSER.

I'm going to work really hard the next few days.  If I lose three pounds I'll be under 200 again.  Not that I haven't been there before, but hopefully I'll stay there.  My temporary goal is 190 but my final goal is about 160 so that's still a long way to go.   I KNOW I can do it......maybe.........hopefully........ 

ONE TEST COMPLETED AND TWO MORE POUNDS GONE!

Today is a good day.   Lost two pounds and got my breathing test done.   See my lung doctor for the results Thursday.   I'll get to Curves this evening too.   Not much else to write about.
