No change.

I guess no change is good change for this week.  With camp and camp food I am not surprised.  Goal for next week is 247 lbs.

I can do it!  I can do it!  I can do it!

Back from camp.

My doc was right, forget trying to diet at camp.  So back on track today.  I really wasn't mentally ready to jump back on the wagon but no procrastinating.  I doubt if I lost any weight this week, tomorrow will tell at weigh in, but it has been enlightening and educational.  I have learned how out of control my eating had gotten.  This really needs to be a life style change not just a diet to loose weight.

Well, we will know tomorrow.

Planning

I forgot how much time it takes to plan when you are reworking your eating habits.  It is amazing how much you forget about how food relates to your body.

It begins.

My first appointment with Physiciansway and Dr. Kelly today.  It went well.  My blood work was right on target.  My target weight is good and now I just have to live the dream.  I have a lot of reading and planning to do but Richie got my groceries for day one.......protein protein protein!

Beginning weight.      253 lbs
BMI                         40/44
Cholesterol                158
HDL                           54
LDL                            91

Even my blood sugar was within limits, which was my concern.  Now, I just have to learn how to read my blood test....I am curious what all those things mean. 

Alright, the adventure begins tomorrow!

The Begining.


It is Saturday, I got up very early and went up for a blood test.  I have an appointment with Physician's Way on Monday.  This blog is to document my journey towards my goal in weight loss.

Goals:
  1. Loose 100 pounds in 10 months.
  2. To enjoy the look of my body, to feel comfortable in my skin again.
  3. Have more energy to be more active with my Children.
  4. To improve my overall health.
  5. Okay to have my photo taken.
  6. Buy clothes and bras at a regular shop, not plus size and online.
I found it very very very hard to find a photo of me.  I refuse to be in the photo because I just cannot believe that I have gotten so heavy.  Notice the float statically in front of me, yes it was a conscience decision.  Camera, OH NO!  What can I put in front of me!!!!  This photo was taken on June 23, 2010 at the beach on Vacation.
