Another goal reached
Feb 23, 2010
Today I weighed in at 189.8. I finally made it below the 190 mark. Wahoo!!I was at a stall for almost 6 weeks again. But now it seems to be breaking again, I hope.
To date I am down 72.2 pounds... and have lost a total of 31.25 inches off of my body. What a change in my life, looks and my health.
My new goal is to once again quit smoking. I know that I can do it, I have done it before, just have to make up my mind to do it.
Every time that I get onto the treadmill at the gym, I swear that I am going to do it but as of yet I have not set them down... I will be working on that in my own mind.
I have made it into a size 12 comfortably now. Considering that I was in a size 22 just 5 months ago, I am still blown away when I look in the mirror at the stranger that I see. I feel like this surgery is still the best thing that I have done for myself.
I am still keeping up with my gym time. I made my goal to be able to run with my husband yesterday. I completed a mile in 11.55 minutes!! ME! I can't believe that I am running let alone that I was able to make the mile in that time. When I told my husband what I had reached, he said to me" now you need to try for a 10 minute mile" I simply laughed at him and said yeah right, but truth is... I WILL MAKE IT EVENTUALLY! Just because he doesn't think I will, lol... I know, I know, he is using reverse psychology but I appreciate every minute of it ..... I love him so much!
I have really changed my life since my surgery and I feel like a million bucks most of the time. I have set so many reachable goals for myself and I have reached so many already... who couldn't be happy with that....
As always I need to thank those that have been there for me through all that I have been through, and all ove those who have loved me through thick & thin...I love all of you!
