Been a long time...

Mar 18, 2010

Still doing great.  My weight has stayed steady and I've not experienced any complications.  Unless you consider getting food stuck twice a complication... other than it is real painful.  I am able to eat most food exept pasta and rice.  

I've been enjoying life and looking foward to warmer weather.  We're going back to the Smoky Mountains this summer and I'm going to try zip lining.  Something I never would have done when I was overweight.  Lossing the weight has made me want to experience life more.  We'll be hiking a lot more and maybe tubing down one of the rivers.  And shopping!  A new favorite pasttime of me     I also want to bicycle the length of the Illinoic and Michigan Canal path in on day.  Round trip is 150 miles.  Its been a goal and I'm thinking this year it is doable.

I have not 1, not 2 but 3 bikinis to wear.  Mainly in my backyard but I'm going to wear them.  It feels so good to feel comfortable in my own skin again. 

Exercise is a real key thing for me.  I still walk, walk, walk.  Every day for a minimum of 1 hour; a second hour in the afternoon if the weather is good.  If I don't, I feel I've let myself down.

I'm still with the boyfriend.  We've been together 5 years and are very happy.  He also lost weight as I went through my transformation.  He was never really over weight but he had been putting on a little weight the last few years.  He's now down to 160 and feels great.  We've been remodeling our house and have a fun time picking the material, paint, furniture, etc.

I have to get some more current pictures out here as I've cut my hair short and look very different from the before shots.
