Weighty Update

I haven’t blogged much about weight loss lately, in part because I have been on a seesaw. I am happy to report that I am once again seeing the scales move down a little. My resolve is strong, so that helps. I edged up a few pounds since the first of the year, actually I have gained and lost the same 5 pounds for a number of weeks, pretty much just leaving me at a standstill. I have not had a point where I completely abandoned ship, but a few days I let my feet get wet! It is funny, but I had a few meals where I overate, but never 2 meals in a row. This past weekend I ate too much junk, but I have managed to get my head straight. I am still in my smallest clothes, and if nothing happens, this time next week I should be at a new all time low for this round of “The Days of Susan’s Weight Loss Adventures.” This will never be easy, but I have made some changes that seem to have taken hold. I have not had a real candy bar in 16 months! I have had one Big Mac in the past 16 months, and I counted that in my daily points. While I am not still counting points, I know when I have gone over. I have had one glass of sweet tea- and that was by mistake (the waitress gave me sweet instead of unsweet and once I took a sip I thought- Hey it is just one glass!), I have not had a regular soda, etc. So, hopefully, some life-changes have taken hold. I have dropped to a jeans size that is almost easy to find- but I have much more to shed before I could be considered “normal”! As a matter of fact, I am still “obese”, just not “morbidly Obese”!!! I appreciate all the kind remarks that I have received- it does help! On another note- David is still in the battle with me, and is doing great!
