6 Weeks & Counting...DOWN!

Oct 13, 2011

Yep....the weight is coming off steadily. I'm down 51 pounds from my highest weight of 291...and I'm down 26 pounds from surgery. I'm at 240. I feel GREAT. I hope to have some pictures up soon.

Okay, now the tough part. It's hard work. Don't let anyone tell you it's going to be easy. You still have to practice great (not good) eating patterns, exercise a few days a week, go to support groups, keep doctors appointments and most of all...STAY FOCUSED. If you start to deviate from these patterns...you start to slow your weight down. You become less motivated.

Had my first challenge the other night: Tiger Baseball Game. First time I had been to anything where there was nothing to eat or really drink. But I did it. Bottled water (at four dollars a bottle) and ate 1/2 of a hot dog (no bun). It tasted good ( a little salty)....but couldn't wait to get home to good "protein" food.

The greatest part though? Was being able to walk from our car, around the park with no problems. In fact, husband said "Slow down! You're walking too fast!"
