Tomorrow I will married...
Oct 22, 2010
for 11 years! I am in love with my husband more every day. He isn't perfect, but neither am I...and we love each other still.On the day I got married I was the smallest I had ever been as an adult. I weighed 212 lbs. I got there by taking diet pills- with Ephedra. Now we know that isn't the best way to lose. I was desperate to get smaller for my wedding. I lost 50 lbs, got married, and gained all of them back plus some more.
Today I weigh 181 (down 104 lbs), and at 5'11" and 36 yrs old, I feel like that isn't too shabby. I am currently wearing a size 10 jeans and my top is a large. So, I have come a long way from the size 24W jeans and 3x tops that I was wearing. Yay!
Tomorrow we will celebrate our life together and the fact that I will be around longer than I would have been if I hadn't done something about the weight, diabetres, and high blood pressure.
For those of you that are/were diabetic- my A1C went from 6.1% (considered controlled on meds) to 4.9%!!!! Dr. G said that was incredible! My BP was 124/74- perfect!
I wish all of you the kind of success that I have had- both in love and weight loss! Keep on moving!
