The incredible shrinking woman!!!

Oct 02, 2011

Well considering at my highest weight ever I was 302, which makes me cringe every time I write that, and today I am 203 just 1 pound losing 100 pounds,  I think I am the shrinking woman.  I never in my wildest dreams think I would be able to achieve this weight loss.  I have been truly blessed and I am sure most of you will feel the same.

I have a mini goal of 199 lbs to reach before Halloween, only 4 more pounds to go and I will be in Onederland!!!!!  Yippeeee!!!!  My next goal after that will be 179 to reach by New Years Day.  I also think I will see about getting a plastics consult to see what they think about a TT and BA.   I need something else done before the TT, I want my teeth fixed.  I come from a family with really crooked teeth, and I am very self conscience about them.  I am to old for braces so I am thinking either veneers or caps.  I want to have a consult with a good dentist who does this sort of work to find out the cost for both.  Hopefully by the time I am done with the teeth, I will be ready for the TT and BA.  The girls are looking pretty thin and droopy.  I have no idea what size bra I wear now.  I don't really want the girls much bigger just put back where they belong, up on my chest not around my belly button. 

All in all this has been a pretty positive experience.  I am learning that I do  not need to eat for every celebration, heartache, blue day or happy day.  I just eat what I need and that is it.  My husband is having a harder time of it than I am.  He likes to have food around to help him deal with things.  When he offers me something, I just say No Thank You.   At work, there is always food around from different lunches, patients bringing treats, doctors bringing treats, management bringing treats, when they offer me something I don't think I should be eating, I just say No Thank You.  I am becoming very good at the No Thank You. 

Now if I could just get my protein levels up and my fluid intake up I would be doing great.  I am lactose intolerant now and I can't handle anything that is very sweet, so protein shakes are out.  I am looking for other alternatives, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you thank you thank you Dr. Farries for taking the chance on me and helping me reach the smaller healthier me.  And thank you God for directing me to Dr. Farries.  You always look out for me and send me to the place I need to be.

Cheers everyone! 
Sheila
