The Vitamins Helped!!
on January 23, 2007 10:06 am

It's been a full week of adding more vitamins. I definitely have more energy. I have gone on the elyptical machine 3 times this week and walked all day at Disneyland (that is FUN exercise). The great part is I had enough energy to do these things. A couple of weeks ago; all I wanted to do was take a nap.
I am becoming a believer in the vitamins.
Have you taken your's today??

How can I speed thing up? Jan 14, 2007
on January 14, 2007 10:38 pm

Boy oh boy! Things seem to be going so slowly. I hit 70 pounds lost, then it was back to 69 pounds lost. Then 68, 69, 68, 69 ,70, up down, up down. Oh gees!! I hate the holidays because we get so back into old ways!! I definitely need to get back to basics.
First off, I'm changing my vitamins to the bariatric advantage ones
Next, I'm cutting a meal and making it just liquid protein drink.
I've got to cut out the morning coffee, I'll try to make that my protein drink instead. I just need to figure out how to make it a warm drink, because it's so cold in the AM when I drive my kid's to school... bbrrrr.
I also bought a B complex liquid. I need to add that into my regime every day.

A Happy New Year To All, Jan 4, 2007
on January 4, 2007 1:21 pm

I hope everyone had a fabulous New Year celebration.
Well, I survived the trip without gaining any weight... but didn't lose any either.
However, I did drop 2 pounds after just a couple of days home and back to a better diet.
So, my total loss to date is just 2 pounds short of my goal for new year's (not bad).

OK, For my New Year's resolution, I will exercise more, which will be easy since I haven't been exercising AT ALL!!

It's time to work out on that nice elyptical machine EVERY Morning, at least for 10 or 15 minutes. I can't believe that I haven't had the energy to do this. I used to LOVE exercise and NOW (although thinner) I seem to have less energy.  What's up with that??

My HAIR IS GROWING BACK!!!

YIIPPPEEE!!
I have about 1 1/2 inches of regrowth, and it's all grey! I have an appointment for a good foil treatment next week. I'm excited to have hair again, but I have to repeat what I posted before, Less hair is much easier to maintain. Blow drying and straightening took just a few minutes. My hair is going to look so weird for the next several months as this new hair grows in, It's like I have 2 layers. Maybe I'll need a new hair style in a couple of months. Let me know what you did to your hair style to make it look nice during this transition.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
