New start….

I have gone through a lot medically in the last 3 months.  Needless to say, my weight loss halted when my thyroid was zapped with radiation and the mini-stroke knocked me down a notch.  I gained 33 pounds.  Yes, after all of that hard work, I gained weight back.  So, it’s back to the grindstone.  No problem.  I have been walking 3-5 miles twice a day, and it’s coming off slooooooooowly.  That’s good.  I’ll have this plus another 10 off by summer’s end.  I just need people to support me.  

I am not weighing this time.  I am building a lot of muscle, and the clothing will tell the tale.


10 pounds!!!!

I have lost 10 pounds!!! OMG!!!  I feel so amazing.  Only 40 to go!


Surgery

Well, the doctor removed the screws from my ankle yesterday, and all I could get down were saltines.  This morning I’m eating a piece of toast and turkey bacon for breakfast, and I think this is going to be a rough start to a weight loss program.  Why?  Not enough calories.  It’s all good though.  I’m wearing a Calvin Klein trapeze dress to my company’s anniversary party tonight.  I should look pretty cute.  :)  Oh, and I’m down .89 pounds today.    


Success!

Today was really good.  I ate well, and I hit the gym hard.  No worries about the pain though, cuz tomorrow I’ll be on Percocet.  (Surgery). 


I woke up late

I woke up late this morning and missed a class that I wanted to take at the gym.  It’s okay though, because they have one at 4:30 this afternoon too.  I am so ready to do this again, lose weight that is.  I have ankle surgery tomorrow, so my eating will be zero until late tomorrow night when, as past experiences show, I will want 2 saltines and then more sleep.   I will start this journey looking like this:
