TGIF! Weigh In Day!!
TGIF everyone! They are saying it's gonna get 81 degrees here today! I'm so glad the weather is finally feeling like spring, well, actually it's feeling a lot like summer but I don't care, I'll take just about anything over cold weather!
It's 3:30 a.m. right now and I don't weigh untiI I wake up, so a few more hours and I'll know if I've lost anymore or even gained a little. I don't really expect a gain, it's just TOM is right around the corner lurking somewhere and I thought he'd show up by now. He's rude, you can never tell when he's gonna drop in and act a fool. It could be Saturday or Sunday.
I have a doctors appointment this afternoon at 2:00. I'm curious as to see what my blood tests look like. I don't have any clue what my starting numbers were when it came to cholesterol or anything like that when I weighed 236. I avoided the doctor something terrible. I do know that when they took my blood pressure last month it was 110 over something LOL I can't remember, I'l try to remember to ask them today when I go.
I'd like to take just a second and say that if you read Alexia's page today you'll know what I'm talking about...
She said it best, it's like second nature, you just get up and go on with life. Seventeen months ago or even three months ago I couldn't see myself feeling like this. I feel "normal" - it's really hard to explain and put into words. But even though I weigh every morning, I'm not obsessing over every little aspect of my life. It's like I'm in the Twilight Zone or something. I never thought I'd feel this way again. I know before I had a weight problem I just got up and went about my daily life, I never even use to weigh. I know I was a size 5, but I have no idea what my weight between the age of 18 - 21 was. The only reason I know when I was 21 is that's when I became pregnant.... I just never worried about weight, I guess because I was skinny and had never had to deal with it before. So anyways, it's just that for the past 3 weeks or so I've been feeling great mentally, about where I'm at and where I'm going. It's like a peaceful feeling, that's about the best way I can describe it.
Oh, and when my MIL and SIL hugged me today they called me a "BONE" LMAO Yeah Umm, I'm not a "bone" or anywhere near it, they have been hugging me for 19 years this November, last year they got use to feeling me at 236 pounds, now that I'm not that weight anymore, they think I'm a "bone " They are so sweet!- We had a great time at Sams yesterday.. I'll tell ya more about it later today when I re-post again and put my "Official" WI up . TGIF y'all
Keep on rockin' it!
