Dropping in to say Hello

WEIGHT/ I went to the doctor for some information regarding sinuses and got on the scale............another 2 pounds in the dust!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am now 136 pounds. I have a couple of 8's that are now a bit saggy and I have to wear a belt. I guess that I can say that I wear size 6 and some 4's now.

WEIRD/ I notice that for the last month or so that when I eat or drink, my stomach gets a little big and then when everything is digested, it goes back down. I remember reading that someone else has went through the same thing. I still have very strong cravings for chocolate when I am on my cycle. The other thing that I have noticed is that when I did eat a small piece of chocolate, I was satisfied and then.................BOOM! I felt like I was going to sleep standing right where I was. I wanted to lay in the floor and go straight to sleep. So what did I do? I thought about that and ate another small piece the next day(at home). The same thing happened and I actually layed in the bed and went to sleep. CHOCOLATE OFFICIALLY MAKES ME SLEEPY.ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No more chocolate for me. My body is now reacting to chcolate.

Comments/ When I tell some folks how much I use to weigh,(when they would call me tiny) I would say that I understand because I was 200 pounds myself. Typically I would get" you have got to be kidding". I say nope, I was caring alot of extra weight on me and I feel great. I still have some knee pain but not alot....very seldom actually.
One of my friends was concerned that I now have a eating disorder. I wanted to laugh because he knows nothing about me having surgery. All he knows is that I have been exercising and watching my portions.(of coarse I am still limited to alot of foods that I can't have because my taste buds have changed over the months) Anyhoo, I told him that I was fine and thank you for being concerned. I will eat more potatoes the next time I eat.(yeah right) I love him dearly and I know he cares but only certain individuals know that I had the surgery.

I plan to update with a pic soon. I can't find the cord to my camera. Again, I am very excited about my weight loss. I plan to get measurements for my next office visit with the Doc in June.

Until next time......
