The Big 8-0!
Saturday, March 26, 2011 at 11:43 PM filed under Diet & Nutrition postings
Today was weigh in day and I made the big 8 - 0, as in 80 pounds. Actually 80 1/2 to be exact, and I want to take credit for every ounce I lose.
Sticking to the Quick Weight Loss plan is easy and I'm still not having any problems, even though sometimes my menu plans change at the last minute, I am still making it work.
I'm finding that people are shocked by my weight loss and I think that now they must have thought, "Oh she will never lose weight, she has no willpower." It seems like everyone wants to make a big deal about it and I'm over it and just want to keep going to reach my goal. I do have other things to talk about. Interesting things like yard work, my dog and cat, my work, my exercise, things going on around town, clothes, shoes, purses, jewelry...........okay, maybe not the most interesting stuff in the world, but I do have other things to talk about but this stupid weight I have lost!
I also observe that I can tell by my clothes that I have lost weight, but when I look in the mirror, I still think I look the same as always. I still look heavy to myself, but I know that I'm not. This is something I need to work on and alot of it will have to do with how much better I feel. I think this is how people get anorexic, because while their bodies are changing, their mind is still stuck on "pause".
I will need to work on getting my mind and body all on the same page! I'm hoping that by even realizing all this, that is a good sign that I can make the transition from frumpy to fabulous!
I don't even know if anyone is reading what I'm putting out there, but if so, let me know your thoughts and what you find works for you.
Thankful for today and hopeful for tomorrow!
