Things I need to do... Make a goal and stick to it...
Dec 11, 2011
When I first joined this website I told myself that I was going to sit down at least once every two weeks to update on how I have been doing. Ha well as you can see I only did my first post. I guess I would like to make it a "new years resolution" to actually stick to writing something out. I find it theraputic and plus I dont want to have to update two months worth of stuff every time I sit down and decide to actually write. So lets update you on some things in my life...Love -
Well before wls I was engaged to an awesome man and I was super busy planning the wedding of my dreams. My fiance's name was Ryan and he was always supportive. Once I had the surgery he started to get really parinoid that I was going to leave him. I tried everything that I could to try and reassure him that nothing was going to change. After a while I couldn't take it anymore. It wasn't just that either, we had our problems. We were always fighting and basically I had to be strong financially and mentally in our relationship and it was just starting to wear on me. Enough rambling about that... long story short we broke up about a a month ago and i tried ending things on a good note, however he didn't take it too well.
Friends -
I used to have a lot of friends, but when I got engaged it seemed as if I just got caught up in that. Once you are single again its not like you're going to call up all your friends and say "hey I'm single again, lets hang out". So I keep busy with work and my family who are my rock. I've became a little more outgoing since the surgery and I think I'll try and go out and make new friends.
Weight Loss -
I am happy to say that I am officially down 50 pounds!! I've seen people do better than I am, however I need to remember that everyone is different and will lose their weight differently. I went from a size 18 to a size 14. I have a trainer that I see once a week and I am going to the gym 4-5 times a week at least. I am really focusing on myself. The only thing that I am having a problem with is getting in my protein. I know that I should be getting in at least 70 grams, however I hate the stupid drinks. HATE them. So whenever I eat I stick with something that has protein. I know I am at least getting 30-40 grams, but I know thats not enough. I have energy so I'm not feeling it yet, however I think I will one day.
Well tomorrow morning I am on a flight to Chicago to visit my sister, brother-in-law and my adorable nephew. I hope that everyone is having a great holiday season and I hope to update this again in less than 2 months :)
