Another week, and down again

Jun 27, 2008

Down to 206 this morning!!  I had gone back up to 209 and stayed there for most of the week.  I think it's the dang sunflower seeds I have become addicted to!    Too much sodium!!  

I got a call from Fill Centers USA yesterday.  They were wanting to know how things were going and they probably wanted to schedule another fill.  ha ha, no way!!  I am still very tight, and still debate if I should get a little taken out even.  I had trouble eating most of the week, but then Thursday night I ate an entire fish plank at LJS.   So, who knows?  

Everything else is going okay.  Time is just flying by, actually.  I can't believe it's almost the 4th of July! 

Another week, another pound gone!

  I weighed in at 208 this morning!   I hope I don't have to wait 8 weeks just to get to ONEderland, but hey....I'll just be glad to be there.  It's been so long since I have been there it seems like a mythical place to me.  Is it true that the sky is always brighter?  The stars shine more brightly?  The grass is lush and green?    Oh wait.....that's the same place I am in now, only wearing a size 14's I hope!!  ha ha ha ha

I had a huge NSV the other day!   I had run to the grocery store one night after work.  As I was opening my trunk to put the groceries in to, a man was driving by with his windows open.  He stopped his car and said, "Excuse me."  When I looked over at him he said, "YOU ARE GORGEOUS!!"  Well, I was shocked and kind of muttered a "thank you.." and as he was driving away he said, "YOU ARE HOT!!"  
LOL  Okay, it was flattering.....would have been more flattering if it was some dude that wasn't so gangsterish.  LMAO.  But then again, a nice upstanding guy probably wouldn't say that out loud.....but, now I am wondering if they think it.  Hmmmmmm

Compliments like that are a little unsettling also.  With the abuse I have suffered, I tend to get a little scared when a guy pays that much attention to me.  I will not let this sabatoge my weight loss though!!  I am happy and safe now, and Pam would be proud!

I am down another pound from last Saturday to 209!  Yeah!!  I can't wait to get to ONEderland!!  That will be sweet!!   I am focusing on that now.  It's inspiring to have mini-goals.  
I am STILL wondering if I am too tight.  Eating solid protein has really been a chore lately.  I didn't really count this last week since Aunt Flow was visiting, however she left on Thursday and I was still pretty darn tight last night.  *sigh*  If it wasn't so costly I would run in and get .25 CC's taken out, and I still might do that.  I am trying not to be stubborn about it, I just don't want to have some saline taken out if the problem is my chewing and eating habits.  
We will see what the next few Oh well.....I guess I should have just stuck to liquids at that point.   This is all such a huge learning experience!

50 lb milestone!!

Jun 07, 2008

YEAH!!!    As of this morning, I am down 50 pounds!!!  Wooo Hooo!!!  In just under 5 months, not too bad.   If that trend continues I will be down to my goal weight by my birthday in November.   My goal is 150, but I know I could safely lost 10-15 pounds more than that.  I'll cross that bridge when I get to it though.  For now, my goal is to lose 60 more  pounds, and that doesn't seem nearly as overwhelming as where I started at 110 lbs to lose!  YEAH!!  

So, the scale showed 210 this morning, can't wait to be in onederland!

Another NSV

Jun 02, 2008

Non Scale Victories are so much fun!  Yesterday my hubby and I went on a long motorcycle ride.  We left just before 8 am and didn't get back until almost 6 pm.  There are so many beautiful places to explore in New Mexico.  The weather was perfect for a ride.    I got a little sun burned, but it was worth it!  I just don't think I could have stayed on the bike that long 50 pounds ago.  

I was down to 212 this morning!!!  So a scale victory to go along with my non scale victory!!
