Man I wish I had more time to go thru the posts.. I really miss you guys...
I AM IN THE GREEN ZONE.. FIRST TIME!!! YESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, I am 30 to 50 lbs away from my goal (at 280.2) I am very surprised at the weight loss since this weekened I was not really watching what I ate. On Friday Saturday and Sunday I went over my RDI (recommended Daily intake) by 780 calories (I know it does not sound like it was too much.. but for those that are watching their RDI, at least to me.. I felt like I was "cheating" way too much)..Pretty shortly I will be at the same price of gas (lowest price that I can find).. 2.79! LOL
It is hard to believe that in April that I weighed at 373.4 lbs! (In 221 days, I have lost 93.2 lbs , almost 2.94 lbs a week from April today<I am slowing down on weight loss> My slowest lost has been in the last month or two, in Sept 10th I weighed 295.6, and then October 9th I weighed 290.6.. at the beginning of my tracking I had lost about 5.33 lbs a week in the first two months, and in the last two months.. I have lost about 1.99 lbs a week.. but I am expecting this due to winter... my doctor warned me.
I know that I am looking forward to the day when I reach the century mark.. but I am also looking forward to the day< I guess more> that I can get off of my high blood pressure, and cholestrol medications. I am having a feeling though that since my "good cholestrol" is so low, that I will never be off of them but I can hope.
I appreciate Walmart's SoloHealth machines where I can get my blood pressure taken for free (ok I can go to my doctor's and they would do it, but he office is in Mentone about 20 miles away or so)..and for kicks I weigh myself as well. No I am not using their weight as the "official" weigh loss. According to their machine I weigh..17.2 lbs lighter (at 263!) Oh How I wish..rofl...
As you know, by my past posts, I am kind of surprised about couple of things while on this life long journey.. How much I have battled depression, was one. I am pretty sure that I have battled it all of my life, but it seems to me that it the battles came closer together and stronger than normal.
Also I am surprised about how much of the battle of the bludge is a mental "game." For most of my life, I made excuses of being overweight-- I kept telling myself saying that I can not survive on a 1800 calorie diet, I will "shake too much." Or I find comfort in food, and that there is not much that I can find comfort it, I don't want to give it up.
I do not have the will power, or the discipline to go on a diet... All were false, Yes I still battle the comfort food-- but still how many lies have I told myself, bout this, and bout other things in my life as well. IT is hard to break the cycle of lies! I know that it can be done, but still hard.
Also what surprises me is that I do not "feel" any different than I had before. Again, I know that I am in better shape, cause I can do things that I have not been able to do before. But still. I guess that is why I am looking forward to the time that I can get off of my blood pressure medications, just a major mile stone. I know that I am not ready for it- that I am experiencing "signs" of high blood pressure. It is under control, but I know that I can not get off of them.
Again I want to say thank you for all of the kind words, and encouraging words-- you really do not know how much I appreciate them, and needed them during some rough seas...
Have a great day, thanks for the ear..
