7 months out - 145lbs gone!
Nov 11, 2009
Well, I've been too busy with work and well....losing to get back on here. I should've kept up each month but honestly I got soo excited I just stayed going and going.I'm now 7 months out, down 145lbs, working out from 2-5 days a week depending on my travels for the week. I feel great, I noticed I'll need some plastic surgery as I have some skin that just isn't tightening up, but I was expecting that.
My biggest fear is I've gotten to crave chocolate again, and the full blown standard mini-Hershey bar chocolate! Halloween brought this to light, and I have 1 bag left in the house, lol. The sugar free chocolates are great, but don't have that real chocolate flavor. I'm sure you can guess I'm a choco-holic!
Also I got hooked on coffee (chappuccino's) shortly before surgery and have since (last 2 months) have been back at it again. This worries me. It's replacing my breakfast or sometimes coupled with a small amount of fruit or eggs. I can't seem to keep my car from pulling into a Starbucks if I haven't had one already that day.
I feel great, bought new clothes, can exercise as much as I want, and do push myself, but now have noticed 2-3 of my bad habits (read above) are creeping back into light. I'm sure the minute I see a level off or even gain I'll freak and drop it all and watch what I do more carefully.
