A Life In Weighting

Well Vegas didn’t make me fat! I lost 1.5 pounds in the 4 days I was there. I walked about 25-30km each day I was there…but I drank my calories for sure. And ate them too. I had BBQ and shit I shouldn’t have eaten and margaritas that were 1 yard long. But I had a blast and wouldn’t trade my experience for anything! I can’t wait to go back in the summer when I’m all done losing weight. Well I hope I will be done by then. I have about 35-40 pounds more to lose. If I can manage my 10 pounds + per month then I should be okay. I’m still exercising as much as ever. I took 2 days off after I came back from Vegas cuz I was sooo sore from the 30 km/day walks..but by the 4th day it did get easier! I can’t wait to spend a whole week there next time! I love that you can walk through the malls in the casino’s with drinks and drink outside on the street where you’d be arrested for public intoxication here. I danced in a friekin fountain drunk with a 1 yard margarita right beside a cop! I danced on a bar! lol. Oh yes, thats all the secrets I’ll spill cuz ohh lordie did I do some things in Vegas that should stay in vegas! lol.

It’s funny…I used to avoid the mirror. more »

Let me start off this post by saying I am very very very grateful for the weight loss I have achieved thus far, but I am far from being done. I am sitting at 179 which means I have lost 60 pounds since my surgery. It has been amazing, but I am not done. The scale has been saying 179 and then 180, and then 177 and then 180 for 3 weeks now. I am getting so pissed off. I am eating properly, I am not drinking any calories (i only consume water or herbal tea) and I eat protein first then veggies, etc all the rules are being followed!! I am exercising every single day with the exception of one day for rest where I am still on my feet cleaning the neglected house…what the hell is going on!!! Urg. I understand plateaus are normal, but come on…three weeks!!!!!!

I will update once I weigh in again…on Thursday morning.
Dear God, if you hear me…please fix my scale. lol.

Ugh. I feel like I have not posted in so long, but it really hasn’t been that long. I unfortunately have been sick for five days. I can’t stand being sick, but my pouch dislikes it more than I do. Normally, I would rely on buckleys. So there I was taking buckleys like I usually do…only this time it came back up. Just thinking about having to taste it twice makes me cringe. And to top it off, something else that doesn’t agree with my pouch seems to be pork. So no chicken for me, no fish for me and no pork for me. Am I limited to beef and turkey??? I have spent the morning so far puking up buckleys and pork….
Looking to the bright side I am down 57 pounds. I am almost in the 170’s! I am so excited!
I can’t wait until I am better so I can work out again. I am so not used to sitting and not being very active any more. It’s funny how life changes when you feel good. I used to hate being active and welcomed the couch, now I dread sitting down.  I was wanting to go for a walk on my treadmill, but I am just so dizzy so I feel I should just rest and catch up on my shows and maybe the more I rest right now then the sooner I can get better. The last thing I want to do is make myself worse and not be able to exercise even longer than I have gone. Eek! 

I am so looking forward to the spring and more importantly the summer!!!. I’ll be even smaller, I’ll be at the beach…maybe even in a bikini?? I can’t wait to find out what the future holds!!!! For once, I’m looking to the future with a smile on my face… :) Other than being sick right now, I am extremely happy.
