just catching up & 8 weeks out today
Apr 20, 2010
I can't believe that I am already 2 months out. I was not going to weigh for 4 weeks, but I only made it 2 weeks. It was to hard to not weigh, I wanted to know how much I had lost. I was very pleased with what the scale said. I am under 230 and I have not been down that low in so long I don't remember when the last time that was. I am feeling great and loving my workouts!! It is so much easier with 70 pounds gone! I had my 2 month check with the Dr. yesterday and they were very pleased with my weight loss and what I have been eating. Was happy with my excercise. Said I was on the right track and to stay there.I love that I now eat to fuel my body and not just to eat. I have had a few times that I really miss eatting to be able to eat what ever I want. But I get over it quickly, give myself a little pep talk and I am good to keep moving forward. I don't like the taste of chocolate anymore, which I love!! That was truely my biggest nemices. I am walking much faster. I was walking 3 laps around my neighbor hood and it was taking me about 10 minutes a lap. Today I did a lap in about 7 minutes, that is so huge to me.
Some other WOWs for me is I took a bath and I did not touch each side of the tub with each hip. And I could put my arms at my sides. I felt a little better about getting my picture taken and one of the shots I actually liked. I even put it on Facebook. I would have never done that before.
As far as food goes, I have tolerated everything I have had. I can eat fish, poultry, and beef with no problems. I am tolerating veggies fine, and even a little bread. Ofcourse it is the sandwich thins and I only can eat 1/4 of one toasted. I do notice that it fills me up quickly, but I tolerate it just fine. I am also able to drink Crystal Light again, which is nice I was getting tired of plan water.
Well I better get off of here. They are getting weighed on the Biggest Loser and I want to see that.
Good night.
