Well, on the 11th when we took my pictures I was down 69 lbs. Today the 13th I am down 72 lbs. I was going so slow as far as weight loss goes and it was depressing but kept telling myself, this is normal and will break soon. It did thank God. It was about a month, maybe 3 wks at the same weight.
Got my blood work done in Feb. Found out my thyroid is worse then before so had to increase my meds. I started taking them today, I hate the way they make me feel while I am adjusting. Jittery, I just want to go home and not have to think about anything or do anything. Just want to go to bed. I'm hoping its just my body adjusting. My vitamins are ok, just adjust a couple things but not real bad at all.
Anyway, I have felt great with the exception of the thyroid symptoms. I am so glad I did this. I am no longer a bump on a log and feeling like I am lazy.
We got a wood burning stove put in where our fireplace used to be. We are loving it and the hauling of wood is like a workout we have to do to have heat. We don't use our regular heat. I don't dread the gathering and hauling and carrying of wood since I count it as a workout. It forces me to do it. And since I love my heat, I gladly do it. My husband on the other hand, hates it LOL. He will get over it. He needs a little work out himself. LOL. Even in the Spring time, we are going to gather it and stock up for next season. We won't have to pay for it next year, we will be set. Free heat.
Anyway, that's all for now, I try to get on here and post here and there.
Love reading every ones updates and posts in the forums. :):):)
