A year has come and gone...  I have been as low as 184 and now am about 190.  It si a comfortable weight and I am okay with it.  With all the events of the past two months Easter, Son's retirement, family reunion...  I'm sure I'll be down to the 180s again soon...  Oh yeah, those 34 waist pants...  I'm wearing them now....  Awesome!

It has been a heck of a trip...

IJ... 

Well, I'm back...  Iam down to between 191 and 196...  My appetite has picked up but I found that I can go without eating for quite a while...  I guess I need to cut back on the eating.  
These holidays will definately take their toll on you.  Hopefully I can drop about 5 - 8 more pounds and I'll be right where I want.  A real NSV hit me during Thansgiving.  I actually fit into a size 34 waist pants.  They were a bit tight but I could button them!!!  My size 36 is kind of loose now... 5 - 8 pounds and I'll be into the 34s...  Niiice...  The last time I wore those was shortly after high school....

Well another two weeks and still hanging around at 198...  Oh well, I'm sure that lesser is around the corner.  

1derland, finally!!!  Got up and weighed and I am finally down to 198!!!

It seems like it took forever, but it finally happened...  Goal is 178.  20 pounds to go!!!

 

 

Well, after battling for two weeks I got on the scales last night and am at 200!!!  Imagine that!  I though I'd breeze right by that number and be below 200...  Oh well, I learned a new way to get some weight loss going...  Get braces!!!  I just got braces and eating is such a hassle I don't snack nearly as much as I used to.  All of my snacks are protein but I think I was just snacking too much.  So maybe in the next couple of days I'll be below the magic number!!! 

Keeping optomistic, Onederland is within reach!!!  I'll be a happy camper when that day arrives.  It is where all my other diets have stalled out.  200 is the magic number for me...

Well, I was on vacation at the in-laws and their scales said I was in onederland!!!

I think their scales were a bit too liberal though!  I got home and I am at 205!  I may have been in the land under 200 but I gained since then!!!  8 pounds since then...  2 days!!!

Oh well, I've been exercising and I'll probably be there soon!

Great vacation full of bike riding and walking/hiking!   I no longer fit in size 38 waist!  I'm down to size 36, From 42 to 36, I'll take that anytime...  Thirty four is just on the horizon too!!!  My extra large t-shirts are tents and I am wearing large t-shirts...  This is really nice!!!

 

 

Sitting @ 206! 

I hit 205 once last  week but I am still  at 206.  I guess  that will come in  time.  Exercise is  the key.  I  don't think  I've been getting enough.  I guess I'm close to my goal...  about 10 - 15 pounds away.  Time will  tell, crazy carbs  are the death of  me.  My blood sugar  is remaining low...  My next Dr.  appointment is going  to be interesting...

Well, I am at 206 -207...  My weight fluctuates quite a bit.  Eating too many carbs over the 4th didn't help much either.  I shot up to 215 and then it took a week to Lose what I gained.  So, I went from 215 to 206 and then from 206 to 215 and then back down!!!  I guess the carbs will just kill you...  I just proved it to myself again.

Anyway, I am down to a 38 belt size and my pants are 36, man, that is the smallest I have had in a long time...

Wooo Hooo... A couple days early but it is okay. I got up this morning and weighed. I had lost 3 pounds!!! I had been hanging around 210 211 for the past two or three week and finally! I dropped like a rock over night!!!

First I weighed and it was 206.5 then I couldn't believe my eyes, and read it again, 207. I'll take it!

I am on my way down again!!!

Well, here I am.  I am still 40 pounds down.  I think I actually lost since last week.  I weighed 210 today.  Last week I was trying to get to 210.  So, I have lost.  One of my problems is that I was sick with the infection.  It caused me to lose quicker than I probably should have.  So, I stalled big time.  Right after the infection started getting better I was at 210.  I then exploded up to 215 and have made it back down to 210.  2 months post op and I think I have continued to lose.  I'm 40 pounds down and I think the trend is going to continue!!!  The scales everyday is sort of deceiving and depressing.  But, I look at what the weight was last week and I am lower!!!

Plus, I only have about 30 more to go to be at goal.  I think I have a real good chance to make it... 

Until next time---
