I have lost more I am down to 182 and have a consult this Saturday for plastics with Dr DiNick at the Barix clinic.  I would think that would put me at goal to remove this skin on my tummy.  It isn't going anywhere without plastics and I know it.  I hope all goes well with my consult.  I haven't been on here in a while been really busy with a teenage daughter who plays on two softball teams. 

As of this morning I am 192 so another loss recorded.  It feels good to be losing again.  I am at my sweet spot as far as fills are concerned.  In the morning it is hard for me to eat anything of substance and chewing and small bites are the key or just sip coffee with my sugar free creamer until things calm down after lying on my back all night.  Sometimes even something soft is uncomfortable to get down first thing in the am, but I do like to start my day out eating right.  Sometimes I slack, a few chips or even a Twix (one side) esp since I am a girl and we all know we crave chocolate....giggle
Sometimes you just have to give in.
Now back to my english muffin with sugar free strawberry jam.

Today I weigh 196.0 lbs  Under 200 and feel great!  Now for that salad receipe.

Ok so I saw that cutie Doctor of mine on Monday and guess what....I gained a pound!!!  I was disappointed in myself of course....I cannot and will not beat myself up over this!  I have to get focused again, and I think this will be an ongoing battle for me.  Never give up!  It isn't a major set back but set back enough to get my head in the game again.  For ME and only ME!  I have some stress in my life lately but have decided to let go of the things that were bothering me and start looking out for numero UNO MOI!  <>  I am laughing now but for the past few months I had not been my same old bubbly happy self.  Don't let other peoples problems get you down, we cannot Save the world alone, they must want to save themselves.  So I guess I must be somewhat selfish to accomplish this but not selfish in a bad way.  So if you find yourself struggling you are not alone......pick yourself back up and get back on track.  I am doing it right now at this moment!  Good luck and I have YOU in my prayers and ME.
