So, here I am. Still alive! I tell you what it was touch in go for a bit emotionally. I think I have made it through and I'm doing pretty good. So here is what has been happening lately.I started taking all pill form pills, except for my multi-vitamin. I think I may have to figure out something else for the calcium, I am having to take like 6 pills of that a day. It has to come in a more concentrated form. If anyone has any idea's about that let me know...Oh, and remember I need it in a citrate not a carbonate. I went to GNC and the lady could not remember that to save her life she kept offering me the wrong things....
I am on a regular diet trying to discover what foods I still like and what I don't and what makes me feel sick. I don't think I am diggin the steak anymore....Something happens to steak when you have to chew it so much. I still like it I just don't think I love it anymore. I have not run into any issues with the meat causing me discomfort as long as I chew well and i try to mix a small piece of meat with a tiny bite of veggies to break it up and that seems to be working for me...So no problems with the meat. HOWEVER, much to my dismay I cannot eat bread products unless it's like a small bite...I am slowly but surely realizing that I am just not going to be able to eat that mess....If I do I have to lay down and like take a nap just after eating like 4 crackers. It actually may just be anything with a bunch of carbs because I tried to eat a potato once and it made me sick too...This actually makes me happy because we all know what carbs do....nothing good...well some of them do but you don't need that many...
So now I'm too the clothes portion....pants that didn't fit me because I had gained weight FIT! LOOSELY!! I'm so excited about that. I am about in a 22 now and I was in a 26 or 28.....that I have to say is kinda awesome in just a month! I was sick last week and I have kind of lost my voice but I think I am going back to the old work out starting tomorrow, getting my energy back!
I am at 283. So that is about all I have to say for today!! Oh and by the way jen looking good my friend!!
