I will be heading out of town tomorrow morning for the weekend, and not back til Sunday. I haven’t had a very good week health wise, so I am skipping the scale altogether this week. I have seen doctor’s who just frustrate me, because they think they can magically make things go away with a pill, all the while, they are just masking the problem. Neither doctor this week listened to me, and I am tired of paying out hundred of dollars for ignorant, although highly educated individuals, to be taking my cash, and I am seeing no improvement. I have been doing a lot of research on my own in the evenings. Late nights on the computer… Tony, if you’re reading this, I’m sure you can relate. I am left to handle this myself. I have read enough now to know that the answers to a lot of health questions are out there, and they don’t necessarily involve Prescriptions.  I think at this point, I know my body best, and after all the ” nonsense ” I have gone thru with the “professionals”, it’s time to take matters into my own hands. Did I mention hundreds of dollars, for nuthin’. nada. zilch. One doctor left me a half ass-ed voice mail the other day that was so lame I didn’t even finish listening to it. What a waste of not only my money, but my time.

I’m heading up to VT for the weekend. We are camping, white water rafting, and a little R & R. It’s not suppose to be too cold, but it may be wet. It’s a water sport, so who cares- I’ll beback on the scale for next friday. This will also be the first October weigh in for me, so i will total my Sept pounds lost.

Gotta go to work. Have a great weekend everyone! Or Robyn, since you really are the only one reading this, lol!!!!

Well I was glad I waited….. I continue on my journey, down 2 more, 191.4. YAY! I have been battling an intestinal thing, so it had been lower(190), but due to dehydration, so that is why I waited- I want to play fair. I am on the mend, and am getting some soft solids and fluids back in me, and am satisfied with the consistent 2 lb loss for the week. I am in no hurry to take it off too fast, and in the wrong way. Slow and steady, and most importantly, the healthy way! Have a great weekend.

I have had, yet another successful week of eating healthy and losing unwanted pounds. Down two more this week. 193.4 and very pleased. I remember when I first started this in January. I got so caught up in everyone else’s weight loss, that I didnt savor my own. I would beat myself up because someone else lost 5 lbs that week and I only lost 1 lb. How crazy I was…. I am on my path at my own pace. There really isn’t any right or wrong way, there is the best way that works for each of us. I have found mine. One to two pounds a week is perfectly fine with me- it’s healthy, I’m happy, and that is what matters most. I left here once because I lost focus of what this really was all about. I love the support I get here, but ultimately, it’s me and my body at the end of the day. I have to be happy with both, no matter what. Have a great weekend everyone!!!!

Going to keep this short and sweet, cause Robyn, you’re really the only one that stops on by. It keeps me accountable so I’m going to keep posting. As we discussed yesterday, I postponed the weigh in, for the ships hadn’t sailed. Well the fleet attacked last night- not a pleasant experience- have to find a better way to handle those situations- wink wink- what do you sit at when you go to a bar????? hint hint?? lol- cracking myself up  lol

OK, so YES, down two lbs… 195.4 . I figured I will start documenting my actual weight now. why not, right??

the lowest I got way back when was 192, so watch out, cause here I come….

Have a great weekend. Robyn, I’ll try to catch up with you sooner than later.

had a great long weekend- relaxed- got a lot done around the house. relaxed-

pleased to add i am down another lb. my whole relationship with food has made a complete change- I honestly no longer think about eating. I guess I am so busy being happy with what I am doing or working on things I plan on doing that food seems the least of my concerns. I sometimes will be reminded to eat by the loud grumbling of my stomach. No more cravings, no more, counting, just sensible eating. It’s crazy, but it’s working like magic. And I’m certainly not complaining. I am averaging about 1/4- 1/2 lb per day. have a great week. See you all here Friday!
