10 lbs to go!
Sep 11, 2011
I am extremely excited about only having 10 lbs to go till goal. WOW! It has been a good ride to say the least and I am hoping for an even better one going forward. I finally love to have pictures taken of me and I know I need to get some body shots in but haven't been able to get to that point yet. I have so much energy and today I took my 4 year old out for a walk --- we walked up the "big" hill in the neighborhood and I wasn't even winded. That blew me away. He was puffing and I didn't even have a problem. Last spring it was the insurmountable hill and now it's easy peasy.
I just found out this week that I am being sent to a training for work. They actually video tape you while you do presentations and talking. I am so glad that I am not who I was a year ago. I don't think I could have handled seeing myself on video as big as I was. It will be interesting to see myself now on video. We'll see what it does to me and if it affects my head.
I do have issues with what I see in mirror. I notice that I am smaller but still the same shape in a sense. It surprises me to see my shadow. I don't expect to see the curves of my waist and hips -- I still expect to see the pear. Life is good -- I feel like I am alive again. I took so much for granted when I was younger and "in shape". Now I am relishing the moments -- I have read other blogs of folks who are where I am and the "men" moments of where you feel being checked out or "considered" are so unexpected. All of that is interesting and difficult to process at times. I can understand how people get off track and relationships change. I am fortunate in that I still love being with hubby and he knows me fat or thin. It also helps that I am discovering me for the first time. I am difficult, temperamental, loving, giving, and hard to handle at times. Hopefully we progress and make the most of our relationship.
Sorry if this is a boring blog moment just introspective today and wanted to write what is going on in my head -- for me. Good luck out there and keep losing! God bless you -- HE is mighty and HE is with you in this journey. God has been there for me. Peace! k
