4 years and counting.

Aug 12, 2012

As the years tick by, it is hard for me to think back about how things used to be. Sometimes it is because, I don't need too, want to or I just plain have a crappy memory. Needless to say I have never and will never forget where I came from or how far I have traveled.

Over the years ( I sound like it has been a gazillion) I have gathered more information, learned and taught others different things along their journey's. I have learned a lot of neat recipes, I have created many of my own meal plans/recipes. Had some one told me I would of done this long ago, I would of shot them a "Yeah, right" attitude. That was the old me.

What has been my favorite memory so far? One that comes to mind was the first time my mom seen me after I had lost some of the weight, she was clueless to who I was until I said "Hi mom" the look on her face was priceless. She said she thought her mother (as a teen) had walked into the room, I was her ghost. We sure had a good weekend. That trip was her watching me complete my first 5K. Special times and memories.


For the past few months I have struggled to keep my weight down, it is a never ending battle. At my very lowest I was sickly looking, I had lost to much weight. Now I am exactly where my surgeon wanted me to be, not where I want/wanted to be. I hate when others end up being right. People tell me I look awesome and "healthy" now, that I have put a few pounds back on. I personally hate it and feel frumpy most days. It is more of the mind not catching up with out body. This will never change.

My plans for the next year? Are to continue with my health and keep true to myself. I need to still be accountable for my actions and keep active. I am thinking I will let go of my gym membership of current and try a new one/angle with that same yearly money. It is time to fool the body and keep it guessing. When one thing don't work we need to try new things.

I also plan on getting to the bottom of what could be wrong. I have a number of food issues lately. I am pretty much on soft foods, as soon as I eat dense protein, I become sick. They have ran a CT scan that came back ok. I tried to deal with it after that because I am sure they think I am making crap up in my mind. It might be time to get crabby and start demanding more to be looked at. Spend thousands to find out nothing more then we already know? Yep, can't take the money with me- might as well invest it in my future health LOL

This has been me in a nut shell for the most part.
Thanks for tuning in.
