Valentine's Day Eve

Feb 13, 2010

It's been more than a month since I last wrote, but life has been busy for me and my family.  I strayed a little from the protein diet, but got back on track and I have a feeling I'll be at -50lbs when I go for my fill next Friday.  I'm hoping it will be more, but that would still make me very happy.  I'm not finding myself very full at all anymore, but I am still trying to stop myself at the 4oz point.  Sometimes it's tough, but I know that relief will eventually come when those fills start kicking in. 

Last night I went and got my hair cut and dyed at a salon and it sure felt good to treat myself.  I have been wanting to treat myself and that was one of the things I promised I would do for myself - get a cut and dye at a real salon.  I have only dyed my hair maybe three times in my lifetime and most were not permanent dyes - just temporary.  I really really love the color of my hair and most of the grays are gone.  Today I went shopping for some new shoes (the shape-ups that everyone at work rave about) and I was actually able to buy a shirt in a 1x.  I tried on a 2x, but it seemed too big so I went ahead and the 1x fit just fine.  I'm hoping that tomorrow Steve's family will notice my loss so far because at Christmas, they hadn't.  More people at work have noticed and I've definitely been feeling the difference all over.

Alyssa's trip to DC was postponed until next week so it looks like we're all going to be heading to Wisconsin tomorrow.  It was only suppose to be Steve and I but the girls' plans seem to have changed.  I'm allowing myself to have a little cake tomorrow but I'm going to try and be good at the restaurant we pick out.  It's going to be nice to go for a nice long drive tomorrow...I'm really looking forward to it. 

Anyway, I hope my fill goes well next week and I plan on attending the support group on Wednesday too.  I really do wish the weather would break so I could go outside and do some walking...this winter is driving me crazy!!
