Momentum - more on other blog
Jul 15, 2009
www.losingtheshel.comI know I like to see updates on people's pages so here I am. I've good momentum going, after a 2.5 month long battle with random issues, I'm finally starting to feel 'normal" so I'm exercising more, and just feeling better in general. I can eat pretty much whatever I want, and I still struggle with cravings for crap I don't need, but regardless I eat less and better than I ever did. I still have a serious fear of all this stopping and regaining, I'm hoping my fear will keep my momentum going!
I'm learning to deal with my new very squishy, oddly shaped naked body, it doesn't bother me too much and I did anticipate it, I knew i would have a lot of skin and the weight loss would NOT be evenly distributed. I dont' knwo if my buddah belly will ever go away, but it is slowly shrinking, meanwhile, my arms are TINY, my ankles and feet have shrunk incredibly, and my face is thinning out like crazy!
I've added new pics here, as well on my other blog and there is a link to my snapfish, with all the pics.
I don't post here much, but I do read.
i started tracking my food again, and was surpised by the amount of protein I am getting, which is good! Still most days I don't get 1000 calories, others when I have crap I don't need it was more, but I think I need to eat more?
Especially since I'm working out more, I'm shooting for an hour of cardio most days, along with weights, and pilates.
I had a slight knee injury, it's better now, but I must be careful and kinda baby it, I worry I may not be able to zumba as much I like. I had x-rays taken and they saw nothing major just arthritis, which doesn't surprise me. I know I have that, in my back too, but execise helps, and so does pilates.
So anyway, read my updated blog, and check my updated video, I may have to make a new one, I'm out of space.
and SOME day I will scan older pictures, so I can really compare, i'm pretty sure i was over 200lbs in junior high, if not close to it. I don't remember exactly when I went over 200lbs, but I don't remember being UNDER.
