Momentum - more on other blog

Jul 15, 2009

www.losingtheshel.com


I know I like to see updates on people's pages so here I am. I've good momentum going, after a 2.5 month long battle with random issues, I'm finally starting to feel 'normal" so I'm exercising more, and just feeling better in general. I can eat pretty much whatever I want, and I still struggle with cravings for crap I don't need, but regardless I eat less and better than I ever did. I still have a serious fear of all this stopping and regaining, I'm hoping my fear will keep my momentum going!

I'm learning to deal with my new very squishy, oddly shaped naked body, it doesn't bother me too much and I did anticipate it, I knew i would have a lot of skin and the weight loss would NOT be evenly distributed. I dont' knwo if my buddah belly will ever go away, but it is slowly shrinking, meanwhile, my arms are TINY, my ankles and feet have shrunk incredibly, and my face is thinning out like crazy!

I've added new pics here, as well on my other blog and there is a link to my snapfish, with all the pics.

I don't post here much, but I do read.

i started tracking my food again, and was surpised by the amount of protein I am getting, which is good! Still most days I don't get 1000 calories, others when I have crap I don't need it was more, but I think I need to eat more? 

Especially since I'm working out more, I'm shooting for an hour of cardio most days, along with weights, and pilates.

I had a slight knee injury, it's better now, but I must be careful and kinda baby it, I worry I may not be able to zumba as much I like. I had x-rays taken and they saw nothing major just arthritis, which doesn't surprise me. I know I have that, in my back too, but execise helps, and so does pilates.

So anyway, read my updated blog, and check my updated video, I may have to make a new one, I'm out of space.

and SOME day I will scan older pictures, so I can really compare, i'm pretty sure i was over 200lbs in junior high, if not close to it. I don't remember exactly when I went over 200lbs, but I don't remember being UNDER.

stilll using new blog, but thought I'd post here....

May 18, 2009

www.losingtheshel.com

So, I saw my mom and it was SeVERELY disappointing, she really had nothing to say, she didn't seem shocked at all and was pretty much more interested in what I was eating than how I looked, her only comment was, "you still have a belly, when will that go away" I almost wanted to say "F you" and get up and leave, and now she wants me to help pay for her new computer!  If they only knew how much money I DIDN'T freaking have?!?!?!?

So I'm down to 219, from a high of 347, whoopee, nobody at my dr's office ever gives me credit for the nearly 50lbs I lost before surgery, and if one more freaking person asks, "so how much have you lost?" I'm going to puke.

Maybe I'm just feeling cranky today, maybe I just need to get over it....maybe maybe maybe maybe.....

Be sure to read my new blog!

Mar 20, 2009

www.losingtheshel.com

I've been posting there about once a month.

In my last post here I mentioned how my BMI was in the 40's, down from 59! 

Well, it's 39, now!!!

Weird that's how many inches my waist is too. I can't remember being on 40"

The last few weeks, I've really changed, after about a 5 weeks stall, so it's time to stall again, I probably won't change for another few weeks. Just seems to be how my body is, but I don't know maybe that better?

About 6 weeks from my 6month mark and I'll be able to eat more veggies, I really haven't had many, I feel really limited by my food choices and I've made some recipes but some of them didn't turn out so well...

I'm seeing my mom for the first time next week since surgery, it's going to be dramatic, I can tell! It will be fun to surprise her tho!

New blog...

Dec 18, 2008

I may post here from time to time, but I'm going to try to keep the most current one here @  LosingTheShel.com

My BMI is in the 40's!  
From a start of 59, that's amazing!

I'm wearing size 24 jeans, and 18/20 tops. My 3X scrubs are getting too big, ordered some 2X today. I will have much more choices of scrubs AND they will be cheaper!

The work x-mas Party

Dec 09, 2008

I was really looking forward to this, hadn't seen my coworkers in 4 weeks. It was a lot of fun. We laughed, ate food and exchanged presents. I got a really pretty mixing bowl, some brownie mix and an ornament! I will probably make the brownies and take them to work :)

Everyone liked my crab cakes, and I was even able to eat some of the yummy food. Jonnie's artichoke dip was FAB and out of everything, I probably ate that the most! I had some turkey and ham, a spoonfool of potatoe casserole, and a couple of strawberries.

I longingly stared at the dessert table, in the past I would have eaten 70% of meal as desserts. 

It wasn't about food last night, it was about the people I was with.

 


I created a blog and a video

Dec 06, 2008

The blog will take some time, I've never used wordpress before, but I will eventually quit blogging here.

26 days and I still don't really see a difference?

Dec 06, 2008

I took some more pictures today. I really don't see much difference. I havne't gotten on a scale, and I don't want to. I'm sure there' snot been much change. I've been really discouraged the last few days. It's like I'm working really hard and not seeing the results? I could have just not had surgery and been where I'm at.

 I know, I know, I need to be patient and follow the rules. I"m nervous about going back to work, not because I won't be able to handle it, physically but keeping up with my routine. Religiously tracking and planning my meals, taking all my vitamins (which I have been PERFECT), aside from missing a calcium here and there. 

I guess I feel a little depressed, don't really feel like going anywhere, I avoided OH for a few days, I avoided dailyplate for a few days, where before I was on both SEVERAL time a day.

I guess I need to get back on track, also need to exercise, I got off track with that, as well. Need to get my water in, I've been slacking. Need to eat my protein, been slacking there too.

I'm PMS'ING BIG TIME. I feel unstable, teary, bitchy, moody, achey, and I want to lick a salt shaker!!

Oh lordy give me strength and patience!


HOLY #*^%*# I shopped at The Gap!

Nov 28, 2008

I'm wearing XXL from THe Gap! WOW. 

I'm finally starting to feel like I'm going to be successful, I know this sounds weird, but I can feel myself shrinking! I weighed myself at my dad's and I've lost 4 more pounds in a week. That's not huge, but I just think my body is in such shock from surgery and having lost so much before, it's finally starting to get the picture, tho! YEAH!
