July 9,2006 - Still going strong
Yesterday went very well. I excercised at Curves and then stayed within my point range for the day. Actually I had an upset tummy, but I think that was due to the meds I have been on. Otherwise all went well.
Today was good as well. I made dinner and took it over to mom's and max's. I made steak in gravy (with vinegar,garlic, cilantro,salt, and pepper). I also made curried potatoes and beans, along with sudza (cornmeal). I ate lite during the day so i could enjoy the meal in the evening. Which once i figured out the points really wasn't that bad, I think the whole meal totaled around 12 pts. Then I had a Culver's Concrete Custard, which was spectacular! (I had to dip into my weekly allowance points for that one, which was well worth it)
All in all I am doing well. I don't have a choice. I have to go back to see my endocrinologist in 6mths, which I hope to have lost significantly by then because I want off of my drugs. I am thinking if I can loose 50 by then I will be able to come off the horrible icky meds, which literally make me sick to my stomach.
Plus I am throwing a family party/reunion in two years and by then I want to have lost all of the weight! I am also planning to go back for my B.S.N. in the Fall of 2008, and I want to not be fat by then. I won't actually.
I will get some pics up here tomorrow. I want to keep up with my progress by pics as well. So I can always have something to look back on, especially when the going gets tough.
Mmmm...looks good, but not now!
