Its working!

I have been making a huge, I mean HUGE effort to walk everyday. I get up earlier if I need to, to get in at least one walk in.

I also have been drinking green smoothies, and really watching what I eat.

So I am happy to announce, I am down to 176 again! Nearly 10 lbs.

Saggy skin October 3, 2013 172.8

I lose weight, I gain it. I lose weight, I gain it. Or that is what it feels like. Last month I lost 10 lbs pretty quick, then spent the rest of the time going up and down. Thats ok, I measured myself and my inches are down...so there!!

My eyes (the part between my eyebrow and the eye lid) is all droopy. The more weight I loose, the more it becomes noticeable. Who would have thought I had lots of fat there?

Another weird body fact that came to my attention. My stomach is kinda saggy. Its all loose skin, and it feels funny. My stomach is hard underneath (exercise), but I have this saggy belly. Call me weird, but I was happy when I noticed.

It means I am getting there.

Happy Birthday to Me!! September 18, 2013 172

Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to ME!

Peace Lily

I turned 4? yesterday! My mom wanted to buy me some clothes, but I want to wait til Christmas. So she bought me a Peace Lily plant instead. It is huge! I absolutely adore it!

I ended up spending nearly the whole day with her. Shopping for my plant, and visiting memere (my grandmother), then hanging at her house. It was while we were there she wanted me to try on some old clothes that I had left there when I was younger. I didnt want to, because I was sure everything would be too small. UGH! Anyhoo...I tried them on...and they fit, or were too BIG!

R. and I went over for super and it was nice and relaxing evening.  My mom is so proud of what I have done so far that she supports my diet in any and every way that she can. She got me a veggie pizza (2 small slices) and a chocolate cupcake for my birthday cake. She also bought no sugar ice cream. How awesome is she! I ended up being sick as a dog later though. My body is so not used to any fatty food that it did not react well. I figure that is a good thing. Its like a built in seat belt or something. It not half as fun to eat something fattily delish if you are going to be sick after!

So I weighed myself this morning, and I came in at 172. Yippee! I should be able to make my goal of 170 before the end of the month. Not sure though since I should be having a period soon. That always makes things a little interesting.

Oh! Nearly forgot...R. bought me a pair of Chuck Taylors for my birthday. I think my son having a job ROCKS!

Damn...I look good today! September 16, 2013 172.2

I have steadily throwing all my old clothes away as I grow out of them. This morning I had nothing to wear...like seriously! A friend had giving me a pair of jean her daughter didnt want anymore and I pulled them out. You guessed it. They fit! They have been hiding in my closet for a bit because they were too damn small.

I am going to take a picture later so I can fawn over myself all day. I may even post it.

 Here I am!
