Coming to Terms with the New Me!

Nov 10, 2010

It's been an amazing almost eight months! I can't begin to explain how wonderful I feel. Being able to go day in and day out without being so obessed with food in itself is so awesome! Lately I've been having a hard time with my appetitie, I'm really not hungry much, and I can now eat about 3/4 cup of food at a sitting....it's just that there is nothing I really truly enjoy enough to want much of. So, I try to drink my protein shakes, drink my water, take my vits and plug along. Hair is still falling out, yet, not as much as it was. There are times I wonder how this will all pan out....will I really get down to where I want to.... I can't imagine being thin. It's so surreal for me where I'm at now, and people all around say how great I look, why is it I still see that horribly obese person lurking inside of me? My outward appearance is not so dramatic to me as it is to people who haven't seen me in awhile. I still have catching up to do mentally.

I broke my ankle last month....wore an air cast black boot during that time, and just got to take it off last week. Now my low back is outta whack....gotta go to the chiro for a few times to get it back in shape.....so, I haven't been able to walk or do much of exercising this past month, yet.....I'm 2 lbs away from reaching my 100 lb mark! I'm just tickled about it. Such a big number! Who knew? Well, I'm sure my good doc, Dr. Zare' knew this would be happening! He's so wonderful! And thank you to the continuing support of my family....I couldn't have been this successful without them!

Just the other day when my daughter did some glamor shots for me (you can see them in my pic's in here), she sent a copy to my son, and my grandson who is 5 years was asked who is that? He said it was his tia (aunt - my daughter)! He didn't recognize his grandma! That was a defining moment for me to a strong degree. That said, gotta admit, I am so happy with this whole process. God bless everyone involved in my life!
