Good luck CableGirl, I`m going to be drinking tomorrow so I know I`m going to have to work extra hard after that to burn them cals off, but oh well i`m gonna have a gooooooooood time! LOL
Well my story is, I lost 85 pounds from April 2003 to April 2004, going from about 205 pounds to 120! I was 180 after I had my 3rd, baby in January 2002, then i guite smoking in May of 2002 and put 10 pounds on,then my mom died in Sept of 2002 and between sept and April of 2003 i put 15 more pounds on, What got me going was a pic of me on Easter of 2003 I could not believe my eyes, I had let myself go so bad! Anyway like I said i started in April 2003 and by April 2004 i had lost 85 pounds! Well i`m 5 feet 6 inches with a med to large body frame and looking back i was sick, everyone even my doc kept telling me i needed to put some weight back on and of course i thought i looked good, but them i started feeling sick so i started trying to put some weight on and i had about 4 pounds, but i was having a really hard time letting myself gain some weigh back, then i found out i was Pg in Aug of 2004 (a baby we wanted very much) So I let go and stared putting weight on again, all i cared about was a healthy baby, and every time i seen my OB he would tell me "Nicole your doing great but i want to see more weight on you next time", and of course next time he would! His telling me all the time to eat was like a free ticket so eat every thing i had not let myslef eat while i was losing weight! Anyway i was 190 the day i had her(4-6-05), so here i am again losing weight (i do have to say she was worth every pound i put on
Only this time i`m not going to go over board and lose to much, so my goal is 130, ( thats my goal, my doc, hubby, family and friends would be happy with nothing under 150 but... )and the thing for me is it`s not a goal i`m scared i won`t make it to, it`s a goal i`m scared won`t be good enough! But i`m strong and I have a great hubby that stands with me, he`s the little bee in my ear saying your strong to can do it!
And i`m here because i need people that care but are not ot to close to keep me in line!
Don`t get me wrong i need the "oh good for you on that 2 pounds lost" or "good work" but if that ticker goes under 130 i need " hay Nicole don`t be a dumb a$$" Oh and yes i will always be honest, i`m not the kind of person that will say oh i`m a 130 when really i`m at 125!
