November 1st, Weigh in..

I really hate the scale! I believe there is really nothing more scary than getting on that blasted weight estimating contraption. See, eleven days ago I had the mumps, couldn't hardly eat and ate the foods that I fed my children albeit in moderation. Yet, when I got on the scale I was back up to 412 pounds. I really wanted yell, scream and throw things! Why! I thought to myself. What to do, now? I thought to myself. I am going to fail. I am going to stall and never lose weight again. These and many other demons surfaced. But I sat down and collected my thoughts. I can't afford to give up or give in! I have to continue. What can I do to get back on the weightloss train?

I decuided to up my exercise and really control my intake of carbs. Did it work? I am through a plateau? I really hope so. The scale read 400 pounds even which is a 12.6 pound drop from about 10 days ago and around 8 pound for the month. I will continue to exercise and plan on adding weights into the regime. My goal for this month is 15 pounds. Will I make it? I don't know but I refuse to give up!

What I'm curious is how do you feel? That's a lot of weight! Do you feel lighter, firmer, more energetic? You've got to feel different from 10 months ago.

Your diet, and more importantly your outlook, appear to be right on track!

Way to push passed your mental boogeymen!

I congratulate you on your loss and your gain! :-)

Onward march!

Hmmm.. How do I feel? Well, I used to almost have to take a break walking the 200 meters from the school to the school parking lot, by the time I got to my car Iwas sweating like a pig and at a loss for breath..
Going up the stairs was a chore..

Now my children laugh because I fly up the stairs now and they don't know when I am coming to stop the mischievius(SP) things that they are doing. SO I feel great,energized and more important, Happy :)
