1 pound

Why is it when you are this close to the finish line the tortise kicks in? My weight loss has been like the hare, at times I could barely believe it. Then all of the sudden someone threw a stop sign in the middle of it. Although I should not be frustrated since I have lost all this weight since November it is hard to not be frustrated when the brakes get yanked up. I had my pre-op this past Wednesday before they did the LEEP on me yesterday. Actually funny story Jared Day was present for the procedure and I was very glad he was there. I was supposed to have pain and discomfort but he acted as a guardian angel in a way. I literally have not touched one of the Darvocet's they gave me, they prescribed 20 and I still have 20. So Angel please tell Jared he has to be present for any and all procedures I have, he is like a good luck charm. At first I did not even know who he was because they sedated me right before they wheeled me in, so I had sedation goggles on. I think he was also wearing his mask and head scarf. Once I was waking up though after and I saw him walking towards me in the recovery room I finally realized who that was smiling at me under that face mask. Anywho the doctor said in May we can start trying again and by then I will have healed enough and had enough time to lose the last 25 pounds.

Must Be the MOON!!!

Was this a difficult week for everyone? MUST HAVE BEEN THE MOON!!!! (smile)

Better then nothing(: Right?

Well I am off to a slow start this month. I hope it will get better. Ijust need to keep my mouth shut and exercise more(: I went down .5 this past week. I know better then nothing and it is still a loss. I seem to have more munchies and snacky this week. I was doing great even if Josh and the kids were eating whatever I could resist. No not this week and I know I will lose more if I exercise and I didnt get too much of that in this week. So here is to another week and hopefully still loosing. Either way it is a long journey and there are always bumps along any path we take that is how we learn and grow.....didnt say it would always be fun but always worth it.

I hope you all had a great week. I look forward to hearing from you so I will look for your reports. Have a super duper week ladies(:

Rough Week

Well, Sisters...this turned out to be my roughest week...Since I came back to Florida...I wanted to eat ALL the time!!! Yesterday, I had my FIRST real "sugar"...I had a few "hugs"....I have tried to understand...why I had such compulsion to EAT....and yesterday...I gave into one of my "indulgences"....I LOVE "hugs"...! I am still working on the "why"....but, decided...that I needed to SETTLE down, again...However, I DID lose...but, not quite ONE POUND...Up till now, I have been losing about "2" pounds a week...I lost .8 pounds....I will take it...better than GAINING...So, today, I am going with the mind-set...."I can do it"....Hope, I can report next Sunday....BETTER RESULTS....and have my "SPIRIT" in control...instead of my "PHYSICAL" appetite...hmmm...or my "EMOTIONAL" state of mind.....(smile)

Need a chuckle?

Dieting is NOT FUN! So, we got to find HUMOR...along the JOURNEY...(smile)

January has come and gone and so has......(:

Ok ladies. As January has come and gone so have some of the pounds with it(: AS this BLOG is all about one pound a week, that is my goal each week. Anything above and beyond is a bonus. I am sooooo happy to say I have had a big bonus this month. This last week of January I went down another 2.5 pound(: Making my January month a total of down 10 pounds. YEAH! I am so excited. I am seeing results that I havent had in a long time. I know it may not be this great every month but like I said earlier one pound a week down is the first goal.

I hope you all have had a wonderful week and are well pleased with all of your effort and results for this month. I am so happy for you and how far you have come. We are all in this treck together(:
Also a side note. Thank you Sandee for the cds I just got them in the mail and look forward to a moment to sit and enjoy them(: I am excited.

Ladies I hope you all have a super duper week. I am off to church. (:
