6 mos out (ok, more like 7!)
Jun 30, 2011
Wow, well I must admit now that time flies! I can remember a time early out when time was dragging and it seemed like things were moving so slowly. I'm into more of a routine now where food choices come more easily and taking vitamins and supplements are just another part of my life. I never thought I'd get there!As of yesterday, I'm officially down 90 lbs! I had 110 lbs that I wanted to lose. I felt like 140 was a good goal weight for me. I'm 161 right now and if I didn't lose 1 more pound I'd be ecstatic with where I'm at! I'm in a size 10 solidly...probably even an 8 in some cases! I couldn't even begin to tell you how long its been since I've been a size 8. I can actually wear a 2-piece swimsuit! I go to the pool and am actually proud to show off my 43 year old bod and I think people can tell! LOL Granted, my suit is a tankini...I have scars on my tummy so I cover them. But...I look good!
My Type II diabetes is resolved. My blood pressure is down, cholesterol and tri-glycerides are down, sleep apnea - gone! I have so much energy sometimes its all I can do not to get up and start running. I actually enjoy being active with my 6 year old son! I'm dating! Guys actually LOOK at me! LOL People who knew me when I was fat almost don't recognize me today. The change just blows my mind on a daily basis and its something I don't think I'll ever get tired of.
I am so thankful for Dr. Stewart and this website. Without stumbling upon it I would not be where I am today!
