Feeling a lot better these days, which is good! I have been very diligent about eating 800 calories (or within 100 calories of that), taking my multi vitamins and monitoring my liquid intake to get between 6-8 oz glasses per day. All of this diligent monitoring seems to have paid off because I haven't been feeling like something out of a horror movie, lol. I am going back to work on monday and I'm looking forward to being back into a routine.
My weigh-in was what I figured it would be, down 5 pounds to bring me to 225 pounds for a total of 36 pounds lost. I can't even *remember* the last time I weighed 225 pounds....2007? My doc is very happy with the weight loss and says that 5 pounds a week is a good number to lose, not too fast not too slow, and that hopefully losing "only" 5 pounds a week with help with excess skin. I hope so.
It still has not sunk into my head that I've lost nearly 40 pounds. My clothes fit different, but when I look into the mirror, I still see the same fat girl that I was a few months ago. It just all seems so surreal.....but, with that being said, I am happy the scale reads 225!!!
