I lost another 5 lbs … I wish I were losing more but I can definately see a difference in my body. I bought some batteries for my camera so I’ll get more pics here in the next day or so. For the first time in 15 years I can wear a belt again and tuck in a shirt. I can even buy cute bra/panties.  I know that stuff all sounds trivial and silly but to me its a grant accomplishment. The days that I couldn’t make it to the gym this week I was loading and unloading hay so it was a workout even though I wasn’t at the gym. My friends are all very supportive and have ntohing but great things to say about the changes my body is taking. I can’t wait for each new week to see how things transform.  Again thank you all for everything you say and do to help me.

well im back home and back to the grind. It actually felt good to eat good today and hit the gym after work. Even though I spent 12 hours on my feet running here and there I still could not wait to get to the gym. This *&&*% swelling in my abd is driving me nuts. It literally feels like Im pregnant when the swelling is the worst. Feels like Im going to explode. I wish it would go away.

Ok Ok I will admit it I MISS THE GYM … Im becoming a gym junkie. Im visiting family in OKlahoma right now and Im going to go nuts if I dont get to work out lol … im heading out to attempt to jog we’ll see how that goes. And trying to stay on track eating isn’t going so well. Im going to the store to get me some chicken and sweet potatos … all they have here is chips and dips to snack on I think she was offended when I wouldnt eat them. Went to bed very hungry last night LOL Ill be more prepared the next time i travel. Sunday we are going to the water park it will be my first outing in 17 years where I am going to actually wear a bikini … unless i chicken out and go buy a one piece today. Thanks again for everyones support you are all GREAT!!!

I finally posted my TERRIBLE pictures. That was the hardest thing i have ever done. I have hidden my body for over 6 years now. Any pictures you see of me are usually just a face. But Im OUT now …. I will take more and add them as I can. I am really starting to see a difference and I have dropped another size. If I could just get rid of this fluid in my abdomin. But the doc says that could be a year before its all gone. That is frustrating but friends keep telling me to hang in there. I will be the hot babe I want to be … it will happen soon enough. It took me awhile to get this out of shape and itll take me awhile to get it back in control. Again thanks for all of the encouraging words!!!

Cause trying to get there SUCKS!!! Sorry to say it like that but it does. I wish I would have never let myself get into the shape I am in but I did and now i have all these friends trying to whip me into shape. Stay strong friends cause Im stubborn LOL I was able to drink a liter of water today and thats it. I swear I try and I try hard. Luke txt me this morning and I got a bottle of water, then the nurses started calling me wanting the doctor notified for this and for that and the STNA’s needed this and that and before I knew it it was lunch time and I still hadn’t gotten to drink I did start to drink when I took my quick lunch and now as I sit here at 11 pm im just drinking the last bit of the liter i bought at lunch time. Its amazing to me how many heavy or just chubby healthcare workers there are, we work out butts off walking and bending and lifting then we grab food from the vending machine or thru the drive thru cause its quick. Nurses seem to all be smokers LOL thank god I kicked that habit 5 years ago. Didn’t make it to the gym after work tonight even though i started out to go. I got home and found cute lil baby ducks and spent the night trying to catch them so the turtles in the pond wouldn’t eat them … no luck … those lil shits are FAST and mommy was MEAN. So I’ll get up extra early tomorrow to head to the gym and try to make it a two workout day. Thanks again friends for keeping me on track as much as possible. And I’ll see you tomorrow Luke for my weight training!!!!
