3 months out

Feb 11, 2010

It's been awhile since I posted a blog on this site. The last three months have been great. I feel lighter on my feet. I'm getting used to coming to work everyday after being off on disability for 2 mos but it's a work in progress. I was having issues getting in all my vitamins but my doctor called me this week to tell me that my labs were great!! I'm so happy because I want to move foward with healthly living instead, you know.

My hair is shedding like crazy. I know that it's normal in most cases. I'm just having a hard time dealing with it. I use conditioners with egg proteins and it helped slow down the breakage. I'll be glad when that part is over. Maybe I'll try braids. I've stopped the relaxers for now but man it's a hard habit to break.

I try not to weigh myself often but as of last week I'm 52 pounds down. My scale at home isnt calibrated so I dont know how accurate that is. I will have a more solid number when I meet with my surgeon 2/19/10. I'm walking/running 3miles on the weekends at least once a week.  I'm pretty active during the day at work also. So I'm getting som exercise in. I'm actually excited about going now cuz the knees dont hurt when I do... LOL

My children love the way I look now and can't wait to get into my clothes. LOL.
My only issue is this cold weather in southern CA. I have arthritis in my ankle and it is killing me. Cant exercise until the swelling goes down and without motrin I'm not sure how long that'll take. Tylenol wont help with swelling at all. It's supposed to warm up this weekend so hopefully I can get out there and burn some calories.

I can't wait to go shopping to buy new clothes. I went down one bra size so far and 3 pant sizes. It's time to go shopping but I have issues with wasting money so I'll buy a few pieces here and there until I absolutely have to. (I'm almost at that point now, I thought my pants were falling off of my behind today. Speaking of behinds, that seems to be one of the first damn things to go. I lost most of the booty but my newly improved figure makes up for that ) I still need to post pics.
Until next time...
