not happy
Oct 08, 2012
Not happy with the weight gain. It isn't much thank God for that, and I am still under 200 lbs. That is all a blessing and I thank my God for that, and am very happy for these things, but am unhappy for regaining the weight I had lost, now I have to re-loose the weight again. This isn't a good thing at all. But I did it to myself and so I have to do the work to get it off again. A challenge that I have no choice but to fight to get it all back off again and then some. I can't think that this is the lowest I will go, NO I need to go some what lower, but I will be thankful if I maintain at this weight. Not the size I feel I want and need to be, but I will be blessed to have 120+ pounds off of me. That is much to be thankful for but not enough to give up and stop trying to get more off.
I am rambling I know I am, I am sleepy, should be sleeping but it is just a little to early for me to go just yet. and I am not quite sleepy enough, yes I am sleepy but not quite sleeping enough for bed yet. But I shall bid you the reader(s) a good night and God's blessing on you greatly.

No B/F
Oct 03, 2012
There is no longer a b/f, so now I can focus more on my weight and health. I will know next time that if there is someone in the picture, I reallly have to watch what I am eating, and doing. Take the stairs more and less elevator, right now there isn't a choice for the elevator is broken down. That will suck if it is down for long period of time like our other building was.

B/F in the picture
Sep 23, 2012
I have a b/f in the picture now, and it has been a challange to stick to eating right and at low moderation. Luckily I have not gained much weight, only about 2 lbs, but I tend to go up and down 3 lbs here and there. So I won't complain or freak out just yet. I do and will get back to a better work out plan, and the first of the year I want to start up with the ymca. I need to do some swimming and some exercising, I just can't keep trying to do things my way much more, I have to do things more and get into it, and swimming I know I can do that.
Well it is time to say good night. God bless you all.

Foot is healing
Sep 15, 2012
My foot is almost completely healed. Been trying to do more walking on it, taking the stairs again. And my weight is down. I am so thrilled to see my weight at the 190 mark, can't wait to see the 180s. that will be so thrilling for me. I have only 10 pounds to go to see 180. Then I will continiue to work on getting even lower. Getting an application for the ymca Monday so I can try to join. I need to start doing some swimming. I really need to try to get some muscles built up so I can fill ing the loose skin with muscles, plus the more muscles I have the more I burn. That is just what I need , murn more calroies while at rest. I miss doing the gym, but can't do it until after the first of the year when Christmas is done and my dentist bill is paid off. SO looking at the first of the year, but that isn't very far away. I am getting excited for that time to arrive.

Injury to foot
Aug 26, 2012
Weight is back down, even lower then it has been. I reached 193.8, which is awesome, and I just now have to deal with a foot injury. I have a Plantar Fasciitis injury, and it could take months for it to heal. I am really trying to keep active with it, but it isn't really working very good. Some days it is better then other days. I just pray it heals soon. There is another injury to the same foot, but not sure of the name of it, can't remember what she said it was. She gave me paper on this one so that is why I can remember it. Believing God that it will not stay injured to long. I am tired of the pain I am feeling, and the lack of exercise because I have to take it easy.

Oh No!
Aug 17, 2012
Oh no, am up 4 pounds, better be watching what happens closely. Can't allow any more weight to come on me. Nope, 4 pounds is just enough, to much. I really just can't handle the idea of gaining any more pounds, so time to get more serious about my eating and exercising. So will see just how things will change and how long it will take me to remove the regained weight. Lets just say this is a little more depressing to me then it probably should be. But I am a strong person and will bounce out of this and do everything to not turn to old habits which is turning to food to bring me out of this depressed mood, but eating will only cause more weight gain which will cause only more depression and so on and so on. So I will turn to my physical therapy exercises again, I can do that even with my foot hurting (which has slowed down my exercising) I only spend about 15 minutes doing all of them, and by the time I am done, much of my muscles are burning, so I know I have had a great work out, time for that again, since I can't climb up and down stairs right now, or go for long walks. Also stop eating so much sweets, with this heat wave we have been having I have been eating to much ice cream sandwiches, my bad, my real bad, I have three left in the box, and they are going to my Mother, I am not eating any more from here on out, can't control myself with them. One a day just isn't enough. No I have to eat 2 at a time, and I do this at least twice a day. So the rest is going to Mom. Don't want to waste them by throwing them away, but don't want to finish eating them either. There is no better time to make changes then NOW, even tho I have started this day off on the wrong foot, I can always correct the rest of the day and make better choices. Often the brain talks us into just having a free day, and eating whatever because we already made a huge mistake/ or bad choices, but we can start over whenever, and the sooner the better. That is how I try to do it any ways. Well am done writing, just had to report my back slide on the eating and weight, and exercising. Exercising isn't by choice, it is due to some foot pain I am having, I will see the Dr or nurse Tuesday about it. It does seem to be getting better, but I have been taking it extra easy on it also. I want and need to be able to walk, and do stairs as much as I want to without it coming back, so let me start in doing those again and see if the pain comes back before seeing the nurse. I did buy some jell insoles for shoes, maybe that is all I needs. But for some reasons I don't think so, for my foot hurts me when I am not even walking. Could be neuropathy, I believe my neurologist told me I have that. Any way, something should be found out, and there should be help for me so I can resume my activities again. Sad thing is I am not as active as many other people are, and this foot as to set me back. Well God is good and there is a reason for everything, and my faith and trust is in my God.

Weight Loss slowing down
Aug 16, 2012
Weight Loss seems to be slowing down. I loose down, then I bounce back up 1-3 pounds, stay there for awhile, then drop down again by a pound, so yeah, to me it seems to be slowing down, of course I am getting smaller and thinner, and so it is going to be slow for me. I just have to keep doing what I am doing, so long as I maintain, and or loose even if it is only a couple pounds a month rather then a pound a week. So even a pound a month is better the gaining it, or even maintaining, I am not wanting to stay at this weight, I want to see a little more weight off.
Having trouble with the bottom of my right foot. It is hurting allot when I walk, so not climbing up and down stairs which I miss. And I don't walk my baby girl ( Annie my dog) as far and as much as I usually do, been kind of babying it until I see the Dr. or should say the nurse practitioner to find out what is going on, whatever the case may be I don't want to make anything worse. So taking it a little easy. This of course is NOT HELPING WEIGHT LOSS any at all. Move to loose is the best. I see her next Tuesday to find out what is wrong with it, and hope that there is something that can be done to ease the pain or even get rid of it. Thinking shoes maybe, maybe send me to a foot Dr and see if they can fit me with a good pair of shoes that will work with my active life , not all that active, but for me it is LOL. and hope insurance will pay for them. I do have neropaphy in one of my foot, THE ONE HURTING. Or maybe even both, not sure, would have to check with my neurologist. *excuse the misspelled words*

Reached 194.8
Aug 13, 2012
And now I am back up to 197-198. I just don't get why and how I do this back and forth with the weight. I often wonder if I will drop down again, and stay down, it isn't fair that I drop it there for just a short spell and then rise up 2-3 pounds. It is confusing, but it is what it is. So I will keep doing what I can. Right now my foot is killing me and so exercising is not easy and not possible. I can barely walk my dog.
I miss doing my exercises, and I have to move to loose, and if I can't move, will I stop loosing? I sure hope not. I will be going in to see the Dr to find out what can or can't be done for my foot. Hope there is a shoe I can get with my insurance. I have medicare and medicaid. So you would think that I would get something from one or both of them. It is affecting my life and the way I function....
Well enough of me going on about my foot and weight. I have lost 124 almost 125 and that is a huge amount, and if I don't loose more then I am and need to be very proud of myself. But still need to exercise to maintain this weight if I don't loose any more. I really think I will loose more weight. So keep on doing what I am doing that seems to be working.

Report of Monday
Aug 08, 2012
Well there is allot that I have to do to get this surgery, and it looks like I just might not, to so it seems like I won't. One thing that was said and I was really OK with is the need to loose more weight or maintain this weight. I don't want to maintain this weight if I can loose more weight I don't want to limit/ prevent myself from getting as much off as possible. So with him saying that I know that this surgery/ pursuing this surgery will wait until I reach a weight I know I can handle staying at. Going to see where my Dr. wants me to get, she doesn't know for sure. Don't know why she doesn't know but she doesn't. I am looking at 6 months to a year before I will reach anything that I can and will live with. I just want to keep loosing until I stop, hope that happens...

It is finally Monday
Aug 06, 2012
I will see the plastic surgeon come 4pm. I am so very thankful the day is here. I am anxious and I am ready for this hour appointment to be here and over, so I can find out if the surgeon will do the surgery providing the insurance will approve me. I pray they will, I believe they will. So I feel real good about this. Will report when I find out if the surgeon can and will do it.
