First let me start by saying.. I lost 3 pounds this weekend.. which brings my total to " 86 " .. I was SHOCKED when I stepped on the scales and they had moved!! I worked my butt off cleaning the house.. and vacuuming the stairs.. that in it self was a big time work out...

Went shopping and bought 5 new shirts, a pair of jeans.. NO SHOES!! (( which if you know me at all.. is a major deal!! )) 14 pounds to the century club.. I can't wait to be a member!!!

I haven't updated in a while.. sorry about that.. I can not believe how much better I feel. I'm never out of breath anymore.. my blood pressure is NORMAL! Even my skin is healthier looking if that makes any sense. 

I'm very slow at dropping the weight tho.. I'm averaging about a pound a week. But as long as the weight is going down.. I can handle that. As of this morning .. I'm down " 83 " .... I'm in a size 16 for the most part. My shirts, well I can pass the 1x and 2x's and head straight for the XL ... What a great feeling. I can feel bones on my hips and my stomach is flat again! 

And the sex... OMG the sex is so much better... !!!

I went back and forth fighting the same freakkin pound... I would be up one day and then down the next.. then up .. and it would just STAY THERE.. but I get on the scale this morning.. and WHAM... I've lost that one pound and 2 of his nasty friends... so I'm down " 8 1 " pounds as of this morning!!! 

Let's hope he doesn't come back and bring friends.. I'll be working in the yard with my husband all weekend.. we are having 12 pallets of sod delivered.. and will be spending the weekend laying it.. 

OH YEA! My big WOW moment .. I got into a size 14 jean.. an old pair I had saved.. from LONG AGO! They zipped up and everything.. I didn't wear them to work this morning.. because I still have that muffin top going on .. (( aka fat roll )) at the waist line.. and I just think that is so unattractive.. so I'll wait and try them on again after another 10 pounds is gone.. see how they look!

Until next time...

Well Memorial Day has come and gone.. I had a 4 day weekend.. Was NICE!! Not to mention the scale moved downwards every morning! I'm now down " 7 8 " as of this morning!!! My son Nathan was here all weekend... had a great visit..

I have my 6 month check up with Dr R in the morning.. I'll let you know how that goes!! 

Until next time.......

Let's get the good stuff outta the way first.. I'm down " 74.5 "as of this morning... John and I went to Charlotte NC to the NASCAR Races.. I won the tickets at work.. ANYWAY.. was interesting.. never been to one before.. Left our house at 9:30 on Saturday morning.... got to the park a little before noon and walked.. and walked.. and walked.. got to our hotel room at 1:30 on Sunday monring.. I was so tired.. ANYWAY.. did really good on eating.. or NOT eating I should say... drank a lot of water.. it was a nice cool day.. but walking around the black top made it hot.. So that's my NASCAR experience.. I couldn't tell you to save my life who won... lol...

Nothing to report on the weight loss front this Monday morning.. I didn't gain.. but damnit I didn't lose either.... I did however, have a WOW moment.. even if it was a mini - WOW .. I was looking for something to wear on Sunday.. it was nice and warm out. I wanted shorts.. the ones I've been wearing... look so huge I swim in them.. so I started digging through my dresser and found some shorts tucked away from about 3 summers ago..... well.. I slipped them on.. over the hips.. and WHAM.. thy buttoned and zipped!! Size 16 .. and not a Womans 16 .. just a normal 16 .. Liz Claiborne... Kacki.. they looked great!

We worked in the front yard all day yesterday ( Mothers Day ) bought all new plants for the flower beds.. brought in top soil and new tree's .. got everything planted.. it looks great! Now it's on to the back yard.. and dump trucks full of top soil and then sod!! 

Until next time......

I'm down " 73 " as of this morning! It's coming off slow but steady...
I had to go clothes shopping.. I hated spending money on clothes if but all my old stuff was hanging off of me.. I'm in a 16W from a 24W ... I've gotten a few cute capri pants and a lot of new tops! Shopping is so much more fun when you can fit into the clothes.. and don't have to find items that are big and baggy to cover up the fat rolls!!

And other WOW moment for me... I weigh less then John does now!! He got on the scale yesterday morning.. and I looked.. and said " OMG I weigh LESS then you do now" .. he didn't find that amusing! 

My hair loss has slowed.. I had to get it cut kinda short to make it look half was decent due to the thinning... so it looks healthier and thickers.. it's a nice shorter cut for the summer....

Until next time.......

I was beginning to think I would never lose another pound.. I was stuck at 68 for over three weeks.. and I would go up or down one pound.. I was in freakkin tears.. it was so frustrating! BUT.. over the weekend SOMETHING kicked in... I lost 4 pounds!! I'm down " 7 2 " as of this morning.. GOD IS GOOD!!!

Ok.. I'm getting REALLY annoyed I haven't lost a freakkin pound in over 10 days.. I know I had my period .. BUT DAMN IT! This is frustrating!

I'm at " 6 7 " as of this morning... I think this may have had to due with the fact that I puked my guts out last night.. I had bought a grilled chicken ceasar salad at the grocery store... it looks YUMMY! But after about 5 bits.. it came back up with a vengance! Man OH Man it sucked! So needless to say I didn't really eat dinner last night... wasn't very hungry after that.. still a little sore from yard work..
