Broke the 220lbs stall!

Aug 10, 2012

As of yesterday morning, I weighed in at 219.4lbs!!!  I've been rather frustrated for the past 2 weeks because the scale had been yo yoing up .8 down .4 up .6 down .8.  Driving me crazy!!  I finally did it I broke the 220lb mark.  I haven't weighed this little in 15 years.  I'm going to try on my wedding dress and see if it fits!  I got on another plane ride last weekend, and I felt totally comfortable in those tiny seats.  I did however watch as people more overweight than me tried to get in those seats.  It made me so thankful for my sleeve!  It brought back memories of embarrassment and dread of airplane rides.  But no more for me!!!  I can cross my legs,  I can fit in the tiniest of boothes at restaurants, I don't have to go in the handicap stall in public restrooms.  Lots of NSVs lately.  Some I didn't realize until doing them a few times.  I wish I could try to sit in one of those tiny school desks that I hated to squeeze into when I took some college classes.  I even when to the disabilities office on campus and requested special desks that would fit me.  Embarrassing but necessary at the time.  My father-in-law said last night, "you're gonna be smaller than me soon, skinny!"  I think he weighs about 200lbs, so I guess he's right.  WOW!  I am SO looking forward to onderland.  19.4lbs to go!!  Overweight BMI for me is 29.9 which equals out to 197lbs.  22.4lbs.  I think that's doable.  I just gotta stay away from those damn carbs that I have been giving into lately.  Go away crackers, chocolate and pasteries!!  I have to admit, I have been snacking on those lately, in small amounts, but enough to stall the scale.  I know what I am supposed to do, so I just need to do it!!  My hunger is coming back a bit I think, or the new med I'm on makes me think about food ALOT.  I just need to keep myself in check and not give in to temptations. 

I'll blog again at 209lbs...10 more lbs here I come!!!
