I have changed so much since this journey began.  I feel alive again and I want to live again.  I have rediscovered that I am important and worth knowing, I have something to offer.  It seems so crazy that I lost so much of my self.  But I am back and I hope the world is ready.   I'm sure ready.

I have gone from a size 28/30 to a size 10.   Its not a perfect body but its one that I am very happy with.  I dont think I ever wore a size 10.  Maybe when I was 10. 

Best part is, its not over. 

Been a long time since I had an update.  Not much different goin on.  Exercise has become a real issue now.  As long as I keep up with it, I lose a little each week.  I'm trying different ways to exercise,  I get bored with it so quickly,  jogging is my next adventure.  I haven't ran anywhere in 20 years so it is a real challenge.  I can only go about 300 ft. at a time but I'll keep pushing along until I don't look so pitterful.  Gotta start somewhere.  
  I'm starting a new position at work.  DAY HOURS!!!  That should be great.  It's in accounting, little worried about the job, I've never actually had an accounting position, even though its what I went to school for.   I'll actually have my own desk!!    
    

Its been a hard one.. A little more stressed than usual, and my loss had stalled to nothing for three weeks.  How frustrating.    I read the forums a lot and that keeps me inspired, thank goodness for OH, but  I did have one day stupidity took over.  I ate all the wrong things, but, I'm back to my senses.  I kept with the program and it finally started again.
  I bought a bike this week.  I hope I actually use it.  The kids are excited about riding around with mom.   I like the sound of that.  


ONEDERLAND  I see you ,  and I'm comin for ya!!

I can't believe its been 5 months already.  My weight loss has slowed down to 2 or 3 pounds a week.  But that's o.k. as long as its not going up. I still can't believe I' have lost sooo much.  I've gone from a size 26-28 to size 18.    I haven't been this small since high school.  Trying to exercise seems almost impossible.  I work at night so I spend half the day trying to sleep and the other half taking care of the kids.   I'll be so glad when my husband is home for good, maybe then I'll really have some "me" time. 

Well all is o.k.  Weight is still coming off .  That's good. 
Just found out hubby has been sentenced to another year in GA.  Sometimes I really hate army life.  I wasn't ready for that one.  Another year of doing it all on my own.  At least I'll have him for a weekend to celebrate our 10th anniversary.  We're going to a hotel.  NO KIDS!!!      Still trying hard to get this protein in.. Its so hard to drink those shakes,  they make me sick after a while, but my protein was low at last check-up so I've got to try harder.  My diet consists of mostly fish, chicken, and turkey and just a bite or two of something with it.  School starts in  week, I'm not ready but I guess I'll have to deal.

Life is pretty good.  I'm going to visit my hubby in two weeks. (stationed in Georgia).   I can't wait, a whole week together, we haven't had that much time since he left in Sept.  
   The scales have starting really moving now.  I've lost almost 20 lbs since last appointment.   I started walking the dog every morning, (2 miles) .  I've found that it clears my head when I get off of work.  Things are really coming together.   LIFE IS GOOD!!
    
 

Things are going pretty good. Iam back on mostly regular food,  which is great.  I was so sick of  yougurt and soup.   Getting the water and proitein is no longer a problem,  but I fighting hard to exercise more.  Getting on a regular routine is going to take some time.  Time for myself is not something I'm used to. 

Feeling great,I'm moving about with no problems.  Having yogurt yesterday  was a nice change.  Now I'm just concentrating on increasing my water intake and walking.  Boy that's hard... I do get to leave the house today   :)   It's just to the bank but at least it's something.  My family is so protective. :)
