....one day at a time...I can only ask for another day to come my way!! So far I'm down to 236 from my original weight of 315. I cannot believe it...the last time I was this weight was in High School. I feel amazing. I know I still have a long way to go but I'm already feeling so much more energy and just all around good. I still struggle with the heart burn but I manage it with a prescribed medication. I'm eating good. I'm getting in all my protein and finding alternatives to the things I use to love... I bring my own food when I leave the house and I don't really miss my old eating habits. Halloween was a bit hard but I managed. I use to love to eat lot's of chocolate but I had a fling and that curbed my craving. Flings by the way only have 9 sugars and 10 carbs...you have to get the right one though, they also have full sugar ones...be careful if u go out to look for them.

I've been working out at least 3 days a week since joining 24 hour fitness 2 weeks ago. I'm having a good time working out and I don't hate it like I use to. I went for my first swim last week and god sea sick in the pool after doing only 6 laps. I'm gonna try it again tho and see how it goes for me...I'll get use to it.

I've been working my 4 days a week 9.5 hour days but they were recently bumped up to 13-14 hour days so that is gonna be really hard. I had my first 14 hour shift and it seemed okay, but then when I woke up from my sleep after work I was very sore and that was only one day. I'm gonna die doing it for 4 days in a row....but when I see my paycheck, I will be very happy, especially with the holidays coming...my favorite time of year. It's gonna be very different not being able to stuff my face into oblivion but I will still be able to have a little taste of everything...afterall....we are human...I'm working on no sugar added pies and a protein shake that tastes just like a pumpkin pie...I'll let u all know how that goes....

anywho...I have to get back to my wifely duties...talk to you all soon!!!

My two month mark is coming up real quick and I've gone out to walk for exersize about 3 times....I've been sooo lazy and now that I'm back at work I'm even more lazy...I do my daily stuff like cooking and cleaning and my job is pretty physically demanding but it's not enough...I'm losing very slowly now and I need to step it up. I wasn't eating the right foods and got pretty stopped up. So I'm getting back on track...slowly but surely....I haven't even been to ONE...support group....I really need to start...I eat healthy but was focusing so much on getting in my protein that I wasn't doing anything else and it killed me...so I'm going to get the support I need and the questions answered....I am also looking for a gym that will suit me...good luck to me...and to all of those having these same struggles!!!
