11 mos out....

Apr 28, 2009

Wow, I had to be reminded to get this one done!  (Thanks Heather!) 

It's been a busy and very rewarding month.  My weight loss has really started to taper off.  I've been fluctuating between the same three pounds for the past month 174-177lbs.  Of course I've let the carb monster back into my life, so if I cleaned up my act I'm sure I'd be under 170 by now.  I've adjusted my over-all goal as per my weight loss doc.  167lbs sounds reasonable.  My vit D levels are still too high taking 50,000 IU 3x/week, so I'm tapering to 5,000 IU daily.  I'd love it if I don't have to take all the supplements, it would really cut my bills down not having to import anything from the US.

Life has been awsome, John and I will be at six months on the 2nd of May and we're still amazingly happy, thanks eharmony!  We skiied for the last time before Easter and now he is going to take up running with me.  He's also encouraged me to take up golf, and I had my first lesson yesterday.  I'm really happy that he would want me to take up his hobby so we can share more time together, and I'm loving the cute shoes!  I think I'm finally going to look into ballroom dancing lessons....fair's fair!  I look at him as my forever-man, so we might as well have our moves down.

The DS has given me the freedom to not worry about my weight or food anymore.  It's amazing what else I can accomplish in life without having that as my primary concern.  I am so happy and thankful for the decision.  When I remember back to last year and where I was in life, it makes me extra super-duper thankful to be where I am now.

I love my DS!
