Month Four

Dec 21, 2009

I made a promise to my self that until the weight was all off that I would post a blog monthly, trying to figure what about month four was special.  Today, at four months out I can say I feel normal.  I am past the accidental overeating and getting sick stage.  I am finally in tune with my body and the quantities that it needs.  I had a chop small salad for lunch today maybe 1/3 of a cup.  The same recipe I used to make preop and would eat three cups.  I no longer desire or crave more or envy others for the quantities they can eat.  I simply eat less and it feels normal.


I won a challege with the OH 150 or more to lose group for sticking to weight loss and health goals of food planning, logging, exercise and motivational posting.  Not to belittle my accomplishment but being laid off I should have been able to dedicate a ton more time to this and since the challenge ended I have not maintained the exercise and food diary.  I have been eating relatively well with only one day of chocolate covered sponge candy.

Speaking of laid off, for two months now with three more paid months to go, I put in 20 hrs work for the family business and finally feel myself getting out of the funk and I will polish up the resume after Christmas and start an earnest search.
