Haven't been over in awhile.

May 06, 2009

Here it is May 6, 2009!!  WOW, It's been along time since I've updated anything on here.  Anyway, my weight has been staying between 183 and 184 for MONTHS now; the lowest I've EVER seen on the scale was 179.(9 pounds away from my goal  :(  )  So on Monday, May 4th, 2009 I started back with the protein shakes.  In less than 48 hours I was down 9 pounds!  I was AMAZED.  But I'm convinced that loss was due to water weight AND the fact that I had been eating anything & EVERYTHING for awhile now.  Well, the scale had said 194!!!!!  I hadn't seen 190 ANYTHING in a LOOOOOOONG time.  I KNEW I HAD to do something because I REFUSE to become one who has this surgery & goes right back to putting the weight back on.  The first two days I had 96 oz's. of protein shakes which came to 520 calories total.  I was hesitant on going ove 48 oz's. but I had that "I'm hungry feeling" so I made an other one.  Here I am on day 3 and I will be starting to eat again tomorrow evening, more than likely some scrambled eggs or chicken; but I'm wondering since the last time I ate anything was sunday night if I will want to eat anything once thursday evening comes.

I'm AMAZED at the willpower I had; it was so very hard to do it & I had been tempted this whole time but everytime I felt that temptation I would just remember what the numbers on the scale read...... 194.  I REFUSE to let it get like that again.... EVER!  I am not doing any kind of exercise; only on my feet walking and doingn theings when I go to work, I think that's what helped to get me to lose the 5 pounds in 24 hours, I had worked the day I started the shakes.  Been home ever since not doing anything at all.  But still, 9 pounds in 2 days, that's GREAT!!! 

The last time I noted the size clothing I was wearing I was so excited, I believe it was a size 18 in jeans and a size 16/18 in tops.  Well, now I am down to a size 12 in jeans and a large size top!!!!!  :)  Even though I've been in those sizes for awhile I am sooooo happy to be in them.  Well, hopefully I will come back here soon to update saying that my goal weight has FINALLY been reached.  But... we will see.
