A really amazing journey

Dodged the bullet again

We went to see Jade and DJ last night so supper was a late restaurant meal…burger,apple turn-over and a glass of water. When I weighed this morning there was NO weight gain…thank the Lord!!! I was hoping for a loss but am very happy there was NO gain.

Will check back in as time permits!!

God bless,

Not a great day yesterday

For some unknown reason, I had the munchies yesterday. I had cereal for breakfast, a microwaved potato w/salt and no calorie butter spray for lunch and 2 hot dogs and 10 potato chips for dinner. I also had a Rice Krispie treat and a glass of chocolate milk for snack. I was worried that I would have gained when I got on the scale this morning but the scale read the same…whew!!! I was so glad I didn’t gain anything!!!!!!!!

I hope everyone is doing well on their plans!!!!

God bless,

Still losing it…pounds (Sorry Marie, I couldn’t resist)

I was down another pound and 2 ounces this morning!!! That is GREAT considering it was the weekend. Of course after therapy today I was so bruised and beat up on (of course I exaggerate) but we passed Baskin Robbins on the way to Wal-Mart so I asked hubby if he wanted to split a banana split and he said yes so we stopped and I had half a banana split for lunch….oh to die for!!!!

Supposed to walk this evening so maybe my sin won’t come back to haunt me!!

Had daughter and her hubby over for dinner yesterday.  My Hubby fixed chicken stew (which Jade and I don’t eat) so I fixed us some chicken and rice homemade soup. I made the son-in-law a chocolate-peanut butter pie which they (Jade and DJ) loved but left here after dinner so his sister (our pastor’s wife) ended up with it. He told me after church Ma I forgot my pie and I said I know you did but your sister has it now so if you want it you got to get it from her and he said that would be WW3 cause that is one of her favorites as well!!

Hope everyone is having a great start to the week!!! Keep on pushing cause the end is worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

God bless,

Judy

Not toooooo bad!

When I weighed Sunday morning, I had gained only 4 ounces…yeah!!! Better than I thought I would do!!!!

Hope everyone did well…those weekends are tough!!!

Will update  with Monday’s weight soon as I get to slow down!

God bless!

Coming along nicely but…

I have lost 6 and 1/2 pounds since Monday and I am thrilled  BUT the weekend is here and that is my hardest time to behave. My first mini goal is to lose the 20 pounds I re-gained and then I will head toward my long term goal …a little step at a time.  The amazing thing is ALL I did was not eat after 6 p.m. I have NOT resumed my walking or anything…yet!! I know metabolism will only take me so far and I am going to have to implement a walking program again to see longterm results.

I am glad the weather is cooling off so now I just have to force myself to walk again…daily!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!!

God bless,

Judy

Men…ugh

We are having camp meeting this week and all the independent Baptist churches in our area meet together. Well a gentleman who has known me for a long time (before and after weight loss)  asked me last night…Aren’t you putting some of your weight back on??? I wanted to smack him but I said yes…thanks for noticing (and mentioning it!!!) Of course he was stating the obvious…so what could I say??? So my resolve to lose the weight…again plus some has become even stronger. I thank the Lord that I have lost 5 pounds already this week!!! Like I said yesterday…I am gonna reach my unforgotten goal of 175 even if it kills me!!!

Hope all of you are having a great week and will have a wonderful goal-reaching weekend!!!

God bless!!

Checking In…again!

Hey Ladies,

Sorry for the disappearing act. I am not behaving so I do not think I should allow myself to post. I have lost 85 pounds and gained back almost 20 . I am throughly disgusted with myself!!! I have lost 3 pounds since Monday and as I was writing to Jo…I will get down to 175…even if it kills me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I AM HERE

I tried to write earlier and I couldn’t get the crazy pages to post…did I mention I HATE this new format?????????

Just peeking in…

Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to peek in and say howdy. Hope everyone is having a great weekend!!

Have been granted 12 more therapy sessions (not looking forward to the pain but want my shoulder to function properly for once in almost 3 years!!

Will check back in when time permits…have a great weekend everyone!!

God bless!!!

Clarification

Unless I am mistaken, the lady our preacher’s wife goes to is a Naturopathic physician. She comes up to SC from GA twice a month and is rather hard to get to see because of her popularity (and many say success). Our preacher’s wife goes back in 3 months so I am waiting to see what happens with her. I know our preacher’s wife is 75-100 pounds overweight and has a load of health problems. The doctor told her she had certain health issues to clear up before she started working on her weight but that they would also address that and she believed she could help her shed 75+ pounds. Her parents also have a lot of health problems and like me are waiting to see what goes on with Missy before plunking down $100 for a first visit.  I will keep ya posted and let ya know if I eventually plunk down my $100.

Thanks for all the input and advice.

God bless,

Judy
