6 Months

Feb 08, 2014

Down 121 pounds so far. The pounds are dropping slow but at least still dropping. I can see a difference in pictures and feel it in my clothes so that is awesome. I had a closet full of smaller sizes from gaining weight and my mom giving me some of her old clothes so I tried them all on again today.... and everything fits. I've gone from a size 32 jeans to a size 22 jeans. I prefer my clothes to fit a little loose still so the 22's are not ideal but they fit good enough to wear out if I wanted to. I finally started going to the gym so that might be part of the reason I've been in a 3 week stall. I assume I need to catch up with muscle gain before the scale will drop again.

My 6 months labs had me up my vitamin A again and my Iron. We are watching Zinc because it dropped but is not yet low. My Cholestaerol is flagged as low with a total of 103. I never had cholesterol problems so they are not too worried about it just guessing it is due to my malabsorption. I was also told to do better at getting my protein in because I could only say I was getting 60-90grams and they want me to get 100-120 minimu. They said it will help my weight loss pick up as well so I've been trying to get more protein shakes in. I started adding two scoops to decaff coffee in the morning instead of one but it just doesn't not taste good so I'm searching for tastier shake ideas to get more in. They would like me to get 3 in a day giving me 90 grams of protein plus whatever I eat in the day. I don't have a problem keeping my carbs low.

well here's some new pics.
