I need a kick in the ( you know where)

May 22, 2008

I am stuck again I only have about 25 lbs. to lose seems small to me, but now I realize why my skinny friends say it's hard for them . It seems like real work to loose anything now. This I think is where it gets tough, i read blogs of people who had surgery when I did and there still losing and about the same size as me, so why not me? I need to STOP snacking because it starts as protein then turnd to everything . I will eat 3 meals a day and I will eat till I am full. I will not let head hunger get me in the night . I will lose these 25 lbs.!

finally

May 04, 2008

The scale finally moved down to 170, so happy I screammed when I got on this morning! I also went today and picked up my bridesmaid dress, it's beautiful . I realized this is the first formal dress i've owned, never went to prom or school dances no formal events i'm 37 how sad .But now I can start living, I need to find another formal event to go to so I can wear it twice!!!

8 months out!

May 03, 2008

I haven't lost much this month but I think I look different like the remaining fat is shifting around. Well not exactly where I wanted to be now but definetly happy with where I am!

So busy!

Apr 17, 2008

Not too many changes weight wise , just very busy .My boys joined scouting so needless to say I have been doing a lot of stuff for that they have a campout this weeekend so I might have some peace here.
 I found a new guilty pleasure  klondike slim a bear ice cream bars 100 cal per bar 6 gr sugars 11 carbs 1 pro.  not the best source of protein but when you a little something sweet they are perfect, especially since I love ice cream and the other stuff just was nasty these taste regular they're just a smaller serving . just thought I would let you know about them .

Dress Success

Mar 30, 2008

So I got my bridesmaid dress today and I actually had a really great time doing it . I must have tried on 20 dresses but ended up getting the first ones we tried on a two toned purle/lavender satin ball gown with swarovski crystal embelishment, it's gorgeous!!! I realized that this was the first time that I could chose from any dress or style and not have to settle for  whatever dress fit me . I actually had choices and it is very empowering to have choices. I feel so great I am going to look great at my sisters wedding and I better this dress cost more than my own wedding dress, and where on earth am I ever gonna wear a 2 tone purple satin ball gown again? So I guess on her wedding day I am gonna have to just wear it out, I have never danced with my husband , he has issues, but he promised at the wedding we will dance and if he renigs I still will dance !

Finally the scaled moved down 1 pound to175 happy but wish it was more maybe next week it that time again and after tit starts i usually dropa lb. or 2 , we shall see.This Sdunday the 30th I am going shopping for my bridesmaid dress with my sisters and my Mom. Should be fun i can't , i say its been 12 years + since all 3 of us went antwhere togeteher hopefully they'll want to hang out and go for lunch also we will see. I have no idea what size i will be in a formal dress and i'm a little worried because I know at these bridal Salons the sales lady comes in and dresses you how embarasssing with all my jell-o skin i think i'll see if my mom can help me instead of a stranger.

new 6 1/2 month pics

Mar 12, 2008

I finally downloadd new 6.5 month pics i took today, wth this time change the day goes so fast. I actually bought and am going to wear Sat. a pair of SIZE 10 jeans today and a MEDIUM blouse, still in awe!!!!I had to alter the top , before I only bought shirts that were long enough to cover all my gut and my butt, well the 2 shirts I bought today I actually cut 5 inches off the one in the picture because it was too long and I think it made me look odd with it that long, Amazing. No new weight update I bought a new scale and the #'s are different than my old one so just gonna wait till it says i lost but everything is getting big hooray!

march already

Mar 03, 2008

So I only lost 6 pounds in Feb. but I have been eating everything , cookies , chocolates, carbs, so i can only blame me . Getting back on track is hard once you taste those things again you want them , but I will overcome it . And I WILL be 145 by August even if I have to cut the lbs. off my self ( just kiddin). It will happen! I went to the store and bought all kinds of easy high protein options like shave roast beef suprisingly i can eat it and eggs and cottage and cooked chicken so all my options are there i just need to choose them.

6 month check up

Feb 27, 2008

I had my 6 month check up  yesterday 92 lost so far on thier scale. All was good just my vitamin D was very low probably because in 6 months i haven't taken any multi or calcium, but I took them all today and yesterday after my appt. Probably why i'm so tired lately. The Doctor said to prepare my self to lose only 20 more lbs. but I am determined to lose at least 40 by August and I WILL. Other wise all went great, weight lose is stalled for 2 weeks but it's my time this weekend so by next week i should see the scale move again!
