Moving Again!
May 30, 2008
Well, the scale has finally started moving again! I'm down to 241 this morning, so that is 3 lbs. this week so far. It makes me feel a lot better to see the scale moving down! I have my 3 month visit next Thursday, so far I have lost 44 lbs. I thought I would have lost more than that, but will quit dwelling on the amount I have NOT lost, but in the fact that I AM losing!
Justin (son) and Ashley will be here tonite to spend the weekend (from Houston), it will be so good to see them, they haven't been home since Christmas. We will have a big family cookout and pool party here tomorrow, so they will get to see everyone. Ashley said a funny thing last time I talked to Justin on the phone, "Does she sound skinny?" I thot that was cute!
I want to mention that Jimmy (DH) told me the other day that I was looking like the young thing he married! (almost 38 yrs. ago) I was REALLY skinny then, so am nowhere near that, but he is so happy and excited for me, he is always complimenting me on how good I am looking and how he can tell I am really losing. He is the BEST ever and is really supportive in helping me get through this!
First Stall?

Another thing I wonder, how will I ever be able to eat enough at meals to come off of the protein drinks? I know Dr. Lord wants you off them by 6 months out, but unless something happens, I just can't get that much down at meals. Do you eat protein in-between meals? I never snack now, and don't want to start (except the one we are supposed to have, and sometimes forget that). I wonder.....
7 weeks, wow!

Well, I just finished my first work out with weights, I am going to try doing them at home, I did upper body today, tomorrow will do core, and then the next day, lower body. I hope I can keep it up, it really got my heartrate up and did a little sweating, it only took 20 minutes.
Is this a wow moment?? Kinda, to me, haha, I was walking around a plant sale this morning, wearing my capri stretch jeans, and they wouldn't stay up! I spent the whole time trying to hold them up! I just wore them last week and I didn't have that problem! It was really funny to me! When I got home and looked in the mirror, I couldn't believe how huge the old navy t-shirt I had on looked! I wouldn't have gone out in public if I had looked at myself turned sideways in the mirror before I left! Man, that makes me feel great! They are a size 22, huummmmm, I don't think I have any smaller pants......does that mean I should go shopping? Sounds like fun!
