Before After

Want to know?

You want to know where I've been?  Hiding.  I gained again - I'm up to 326.0 again.  I don't want to be at this point!  *grrr* 

Of course I did a good thing - I ran into town quick without the kids.  I started towards Dairy Queen, but managed to turn my van away without going in for a cone.  Although I do have to say even a "cone" (small or medium) isn't such a bad choice considering all the nummy things they have there.

I need to get off my butt and start exercising.  What time are we waking up to exercise, sis?  5am?  *giggle*

Lowest of the low

I've made it back down to my lowest point yet - 323.8 pounds.  Ya...that's low. 

I've got to kick myself into high gear from here on out.  Sis help me!!  I need to get to my first goal by August 17th.

Time To Step It Up

My meds have kicked in as much as they are going to on their own.  Now it's time for me to step it up and kick myself into gear further.

I did take a step up and walk around yesterday afternoon when I could have just sat in the car while waiting for my daughter to get done with her meeting.  Instead the boys and I ran off steam outside playing.

I just need get my butt in gear and walk much more the rest of the time!

Even the doctor says,....

Yeah!!

I've lost 8lbs according to their records in a month!  Talk about motivation!  Both the doc and his nurse were more than happy to encourage me to keep doing what I'm doing.

The nurse whom has undergone WLS last year gave me the information for the local WLS support group.  She said there are quite a few people who are just starting this process like me, too.

Small Steps

A loss of 0.6 pounds this week overall.  Smaller than I'd like, but I can live with it.

Sis - Thanks for the comments yesterday (((hugs)))

Hungry?

So I thought I was hungry - waking up in the middle of the night so I figured what better to do than to log on and complain about it.  Here I am!  :P

I'm hungry!  Well I think I am -- maybe it's because I didn't eat anything all day yesterday except for 2 servings of pretzel goldfish.  Could be.

It is on the way...

I swear DQ is on the way home -- the long about way.  LOL

My hubby said he's maybe doing some low fat eating, but not willingly.  Don't ya love the support?

I really need to get back in the habit of when I feel like eating something to get back on here and post about it.  Something that will make me think twice about shoving my face.

Alone?

After reading the post from my sister I get an empty feeling.  I wish I wasn't alone at my house on this eating challenge.  It would so help me to have someone else on board with that I'm doing, but I know he's not.

I know I'm not alone in my journey to lose weight here online, but that's different.  I'd love to have someone living here to help kick me in the butt when they see me scarfing down something I shouldn't be.  Or wanting to stop at the Dairy Queen when I know darn good and well I don't need it.

 

Baby Steps = Hopeful Weight Loss

For baby steps to actually work you need to take them, right?

Guess I need to follow directions - so this is it.  My wake up call.  Of course the real wake up call should have been when I stepped on the freaking scale and it said 340.4 pounds!!

Chunka Chunka Chunka

Yup....that's me!

I hate being fat - I hate getting winded walking to the car - I hate knowing that I can't and won't be able to fit on rides anywhere we go.

I want to lose it all......NOW!!  Why won't these 200 pounds just fly right off?  I mean it feels like it just flew right on without a problem.

I was thinking about it the other day.  When my husband and I got together I was about 240 or so - as of May when I started I was 340.  That means I gained 100 pounds in 6 years!  That's so not right!
