YUCK: I have been a good girl and taking all my vitamins and supplements….even-though they make me physically ill. Nausea. Yuck. UGH
IBS: Having severe stomach issues all week. Still not feeling well.
WOW: Went clothes shopping twice this week. I got rid of tons of my clothes that were way too large on me now. I got a bunch of dresses, skirts, shirts,etc. all for 75% off. I passed by a mirror at Kohls and freaked out by how small I am starting to look. Wearing 12 and 14′s now. I even wore a mini-skirt shopping today! been over 17 years since I wore a skirt that short. Legs look fab although very pale.
FLABBY: My body is not too flabby… I guess that is a blessing from slow weight loss. I do have some flab on my inner thighs and my boobs are a lil saggy.
WEIGHT: I am only 12 lbs away from being under 200 lbs. I did get a few pounds under 200… some 16 years ago… I was 198 lbs when I last saw Bret Michaels and Poison. I had several photographers wanting me to pose for them at that show. I declined. My waist back then was 30″. I have not been brave enough to measure my waist the past few months… may do it tomorrow.
I remember being 10 years old…. maybe 11 and weighing 199 lbs.
Always the fattest girl at school and came home sulking, crying, bawling at being treated differently due to my appearance.
NO MORE TEARS !
In the 7th grade I weighed 236 and in the 8th I was up to 242.When I was 18 I was up to 256 lbs.I dropped down to 200lbs when I was 25 and then slowly gained up to 315lbs (January 2009)
Today I weigh 211 lbs.
FUTURE: I truly hope to be under 200 by Sept 14th. Surgeon originally told me he doubted I would go under 200… I have the Lord on my side and with Him anything is possible.
My goal is to be 175lbs…. only 36lbs away from that now. Would love to be able to wear a size 8-10.
I currently can wear size 12 jeans that are stretchy denim with lycra but if they are zipper or button up I require a size 16. Some of my new dresses are a large. Wow from a 3x down to a large. SMILING.
I am gonna do my best to get down to 150 by March 2011.
JOHN: Been neglecting him. Sorry that I have and promise to be more attentive from now on. He is such a dear and special friend to me. Blessed.
FOOD: Being cooking much more than I used to. Grilling out 3-4 days a week. Getting in my required protein is difficult some days when I have so much nausea that I cant eat much. Been restricting carbs. Sugar has been excellent. Had to lower my insulin pump. Last month. I was taking 35-65 units daily.. I am now down to 15-20 units and have even better control now.
HAIR: My hair is growing back in quickly. Seems curlier as well. Praise Jesus.
TOMORROW: Will prolly take Smoki for a drive. I am gonna make sure I am home to see John tomorrow. Was late 4 times this week. Was either having a cookout or napping.
BEDTIME: Gotta go find me a snack prior to bed. Will prolly be mozzarella cheese sticks and crackers. Smoki, Tater, and Jazzi all love to snack on those with me.
PRAYERS: Sending love and prayers to all.
GOD BLESS YOU,
