I've been trying to be a big girl about it, but frustration was making its way back into my life. Finally the scale moved a little, I'll take 2 pounds in a heart beat. I've said it before, I shall say it again, I don't care how long it takes me to get there, as long as I get there. Now, I'm more than half way to my goal. 48 pounds to go sounds so manageable to me. I can't remember the last time I felt so confident about reaching my goal. When I stop and break things down, I'm so hopeful...when I lose half of what I have left...I'll only be 24 pounds overweight! That just baffles me. I'm excited and it lights a little fire in me to think about my goals on a smaller scale.
In other news, my restriction is strange. Some days I can barely eat and some days I could eat my shoe if I put my mind to it. I realize that I'm dealing with head hunger much more than I have before and I need to address it and put a plan into action. I've been tracking my food and I think that's a good place to start. I really need to exercise more, but hate the cold weather and it makes me a total slug (not excuses you say...I'm sorry, have we met?) I have some horrifying before pictures to post soon and I will. Things are crazy busy at work and I haven't had time to blog much, things should even out soon. Today I register my baby for HIGH SCHOOL! I have a lump in my throat, how did this happen? Also, in the "how did this happen department" I'm turning 48 this month. I have no doubt that I will reach my goal of being fit when I turn 50. I have a 30 year class reunion this summer and I'm not even freaking out about it, I'm actually looking forward to it.
Wow, that was long, if you're still here...I hope you have a wonderful day!
Big Hugs,

I am going to ask doc on Mon about a barium swallow. Its crazy how I go for a bit and boom, tightness hits, have some taken out and fine for a few weeks than it starts again! Not the way i want to lose weight either!
Another January baby! I knew I there was a reason I like you and Jacquie so much! Great job on your weight loss. I lost 1 pound in 6 weeks......big deal. I got a little more aggressive fill today and I hope it will make a difference. Can't wait to see you next month!
Yay! Halfway there is awesome!
I have to break my big number down into smaller ones or it gets too overwhelming.
Half way! Woo hoo! Half way was such a big deal for me!!!!
Wow! Terrific for YOU!!! 52 pounds is soooooo absolutely awesome! I want to be YOU!
And just wait until you register your Baby for College!
More than half way! Yeah!
You'll be smokin' hot at that reunion!
Awesome!
Congrats...Awesome!
Right on! 52 is great!
Tracking my food has been really helpful, as much as I preach about "no dieting." It doesn't feel like a diet because now, finally, my restriction is great! YAY! So give the tracking a shot.
And babies going to high school...I just signed up my DD this week! Cannot believe it!
Congrats!
Congrats, you are now on the down hill slide :o)
