...you make a 210 calorie frozen entree, and you cannot eat the whole thing!
It seems like it's been awhile since I wrote, but I guess it's been only a week. I have lost just about 40 pounds. I am exercising more. Glen and I walked 2 miles the other night, after I spent the day cleaning the house. Yesterday, the girls and I walked to Fort Fraser AND we did water aerobics last night. I saw Dr. Hawasli last week and he was happy with my progress.
My clothes are getting big on me, but I can still wear a lot of things. I am literally going to wait till Labor Day weekend to shop for school. I am wishing I had Stacy and Clinton to help me put together 20 outfits from 7 pieces of clothing! :-) I went on-line to look for some hints on how to do this. I do not want to buy a lot, and then have to turn around and buy more. Okay, so I'd be thrilled to have to do that, but I don't want to pay for it! Yes, yes, yes, I know about going to thrift stores, but I am still plus-sized, and often the selection is pretty bad. I definitely want to buy 2-3 pairs of pants, some tops, a jean jacket, and I'm not sure what else yet.
I am now at the "soft foods phase", so NO MORE PUREE!!! Yeah! Not that I ate much puree...I really ate a lot of soft foods (eggs, beans, turkey lunchmeat, etc) and just chewed a lot.
Oh, and I went with Teri to her seminar...and I actually got to be a guest speaker. I talked about how in Jan 2010 I weighed 300 pounds, lost 30, and gained over half of it back. That I knew HOW to lose weight, but with the large size of my stomach, I could not SUSTAIN it. I told them about my fatigue and some of the pureed things that I ate. It was great for me to be a "success story" and I think they appreciated seeing someone who had it recently and is surviving and making it work.
