Month 3/4

Oct 10, 2011

I suck.  I am suppsed to be keeping this up to date but I'm not doing so well.  I am going to combine month 3 and 4.  As of September 10,2011 I weighed in at 188!.  Yippee I am so elated!.   Today was my 18year anniversary and I am no longer in the 190's.  My husband and I spent all day together and we stopped at a mall because he wanted me to "model" some dresses for him.  It was exciting. I went into Ann Taylor Loft and tried on a size 14 dress and it fit!.  Hubby was in complete approval.  : )   Now I did not buy the dress...it was $79! Was not going to pay that much for something I wont be wearing for long.   I can also wear Old Navy jeans and Levis in a 14-depending on the cut. 

Month 4  October 10,2011

Ok see the number above. Today I am 182. I only lost 6 pounds and all of that in the last week.  My cycle came and that seems to stop any type of weight loss. Then I don't lose for 2 weeks and then week 3 I lose 1 pound and the 4th week I lose like 5 pounds.
Whatever, rolling eyes.  : )  I went to my surgeon and she thinks I am doing great. The only negative is that my labs revealed that my protein is low!  What in the world??  Nearly 99.99% of everything I eat is protein.  I'm not low in anything else. I don't get it.  I am not tired or losing hair (knock on wood).  Well back to the nasty world of protein drinks and greek yogurt.  I don't want to be deficient in anything.

I wanted to be 178 by this date.  I see that setting these number goals is just not productive for me.  I got all worked up because I hit the dreaded 6 month mark in December and I want most of the weight gone by then. Most say the weight loss slows down a lot at the 6 month mark.  I'm upping the water, protein and workouts.
