Almost 4 months out!

Mar 19, 2009

Time flies.  I can't believe I am 4 months out.  I am down a little over 75 lbs.  I am so proud of myself.  This is a weight I haven't seen in over 15 yrs.  I must say I feel good.  I have a new found confidence that wasn't there even when I was at my thinnest.   It isn't just the weight I lost it is the sense of accomplishment and the great feeling that I am finally taking care of me. 
I am having some issues getting to the gym, or maybe they are excuses.  I am working on that though.  I also have been really fighting my "head"hunger at night.  The old late night munchies call me alot.  More when I am frustrated or upset.  I win those fights more than I lose them. 
I posted my first goal on OH...I want to walk/run a 5k next month.  Probably will do mostly walking for this one, but aim to be running one of these before the end of the year with my sister.  She does them often and is training for a triathalon too. 
I try not to focus on the numbers on the scale too much.  If I keep doing the things I am supposed to, and working the tool Dr Cussatti gave me, the scale will go in the right direction.
