In the longest stall ever.

Jun 30, 2009

Hi Family,

Ive been in a stall for almost a month as to be expected.  Ive only lost about 5 lbs this month.  I'm currently 192-195 depends on what time I weigh myself.  Ive having horrible bruising and muscle cramps in my legs, I'm tired and sleepy all the time.  I made a appointment with my PCP on Thursday to get my levels checked.  In the mean time I'm 8 pounds away from my personal goal of 185.  Now that I have a better understanding of my size (12)  I would probably change my weight goal to 175 (size 10).  Thus adding on another 10 pounds on to my goal.  That current goal was set on the bases of if I looked bad but i turned out really good Dr. Afram says I should loose a 100 pds honestly if I'm a 12 at 192 that would put my in the range of 6 at 165 I really don't want to venture there at all.  I get cursed out by people at least once a week.  example:

I recently had a lady Ive known for years tell me I looked BAD and she went on to describe how my eyes look big and my face looks sunken in like a crack addict.  My girlfriend with me at the time took offense immediately I had to calm her down.  She said if she had not heard it with her own ears she wouldn't have believed how people will  verbally attack me for no reason and have such passion with it that is scary. 

Now that I'm on the skinny side as some call me.  I do find more acceptance like when I was a big girl I would never leave the house undone hair flawless, makeup, outfit just right and that's to go to the laundry mat.  Now I leave the house hair comb back, jeans and tennis shoes (YES, tennis shoes I NEVER wore those dreadful things unless I was working out)  It feels good to come down off of the 5 inch heel and take a break.  I didn't realize how much I wore the monkey suit of appearance.  Might I add I get a lot of attention just being simple.  I laugh now but wow I was vain. 

Talk to you guys soon.
