I took my measurements today and they haven't changed much at all since april 22! I have only lost 2.5 inches in my hips and my waist. I have lost 11lbs so I thought that I would have lost more inches than just 2.5!!
I haven't blogged since Thursday cause Friday I went with my Daddy to pick up his new truck (YAY I'm so happy for him) and Saturday I was just lazy!! Nothing has changed I just lost another pound. My swelling is still the same. I did take Friday and Saturday off from my pill. I started it back today and I feel like CRAP! Which is kinda good cause I don't eat when I feel bad.
I have set a new goal for myself! I want to be in the 100's (even if it's 199) by Sept 1st!! My Mom is getting married and of course she asked me to stand with her. I don't have to wear a dress so I told her I would. Since this is her 3rd marriage (the first two was to my Daddy, I guess they thought the second one would last, but they thought wrong!) it's going to be a redneck wedding, but whatever floats her boat! I don't think it will be all that hard to lose 36lbs in 3 months, I hope not anyways!
Well I hope everyone has a great week!!

Good luck
Best of luck with your weight loss! You are doing well so far! We are pretty much the same weight so it will be fun to watch your progress.
You've already dropped 11 pounds! And your inches sound pretty good to me. KEEP IT UP! You are doing so good, already!
And keep us posted about the redneck wedding - sounds like fun. My own wedding was a little "cheap" and we were the talk of our bass-ackwards little town, but we enjoyed ourselves. I walked down the aisle to Kenny Rogers' "You Decorated My Life." I had a lace cowboy hat rather than a veil, my blouse came from JCPenney, my gray taffeta skirt was made by my mom, and I wore my ropers. My dh wore his Wranglers and a nice shirt. His best man pitched a fit that he couldn't wear his cowboy hat in the church. Our "reception" was at a dance hall where beer was sold by the pitcher. I had to take a break between the wedding and the reception to nurse our three month old daughter (how scandalous!) who then went home with my mom while we went dancing. Afterwards, we hit the "Whataburger" drive through on the way back to... MY MOM'S HOUSE. We stayed the night on her fold-out couch, then took our daughter home the next day. What a honeymoon!
You're doing good! The inches lost looks good to me and you have to remember that the inches lost all depends on the swelling. You were saying that you still have swelling, it can be the water retention. Give yourself time because you just started your job and its a lot of physical work so your body needs time to adjust itself. You may suprise yourself next month! Hang in there and stay focused on the goal. YOU WANT TO GET IN THE ONER-LAND'S
Stay strong and I'll be rooting for you by the side lines......Good luck: D
