| Hey everyone...hope all is well, time is so short I can't/ don't have time to scan all 9 pages!!! That is wonderful that this string is going to be as big as the last!!!
Small update on me...I have gained even more weight I am at 188 now!!! I don't know what is going on but I have put it in the hands of Jenny Craig and my gym. I don't have the will power or the strength to do this on my own. I have tried and we see what that has done for me. All of you are an insperation to me and I know that once I get past my own emotional walls I will be able to do it too....I will be checking back and saying hello, you all are wonderful role models!!! GOOD LUCK KEEP IT UP...(especially you Jayne!!!! you are wonderful) |

| Jayne, you are such a motivator to us all!!!
With the New Year brings a new start....so here are the stats Angela, Tacoma WA..33yrs old, 183lbs.... by reading the profile we all know that I have been on this journey ups and downs for a long time now...but it is time for a new start, health issues and all....I also have started logging food, not ready to log calories...so out comes my little notebook that I keep in my purse, every little bit of anything that goes into my mouth, including gum!!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR'S SBeachers and all others!!!! |

| Molly, thank you that was wonderful info!!! I will be turning towards that for some of my daily motivation starting tomorrow!!! My son and I do a lot of ground turkey breast, not sure if i can stomach ostrich yet...red meat is out, like chocolate, it can throw me over the edge and one bite will lead me onto the road of devouring a cow!!!!! | |||

| Jayne, thank you for the concern. I am going to be careful. The only reason he told me to shy away from it was my chol. however if i dont do red meat and not too many whole eggs i will be good...I just cant have this extra weight on me, and i keep gaining... | |||

| Thanks for thinking of me...all of my other tests have come back...my heart is double beating in the lower quadrants...found that to be interesting...I go in for a sleep study tomorrow night, doc thinks that insomnia is causing it...I have been back eating right the past few days....this past month was horrible!!!! As the scale shows..up 5lbs!!!! Mentally it has taken it's toll on me...which makes it worse, since I am an emotional eater...BRING ON THE JUNK FOOD!!! Ok not really but that is what I have done the past few weeks...I don't have anyone else to blame, I know right from wrong when it comes to my eating, so now I have to be in control of it....
It amazes me some times that others look down on the overweight...they say we should be able to control our eating, should not be fat...etc...I know all of us have heard every comment there is out there....and even though it is true, we are humans that are run on emotion and minds....that is hard to over come...so our bodies suffer from our "sickness"...if depression is an illness and anxiety is an illness...why is Obesity not included? |

| I have accepted that I am allowing myself the whole cheat week!!! Starting from last week until monday, ok maybe sunday...I will read all weekend and see what it is that my doctor will accept. I think he will be ok with me doing phase 2 all the time, he was not happy with phase 1....I go in for my mammo on the 10th..a bit nervous but nothing too bad...Now that I have carbs back into my system, I cant seem to get them out!!!!!! | |||

| before pic horror story: I had my son take my pics for me...it was a exercise bra and bike shorts picture....I almost threw up when I looked at those pics!!!! I did not delete them, however I do have them as a hidden file, so others cannot find them. My son was a good sport and kept saying...mom stop crying, just think in 2 more years you will laugh at these!!!! What a sweet boy....guess what, nothing has changed yet..we took those pics a year ago...and I have not changed at all yet!!! That is what a plateau will do...so i guess the pics are mid pics, not before...I look forward to being comfortable enough to be in a bathing suit, let alone take pictures in it!!!!
GOOD FOR YOU for being able to suck it up and be willing to "bare it all" |
