Hi people! I'm still in blogosphere on this site... Life just got insanely busy, and I have been updating another blog more often.
I finished crossing the finish line of shrinking a long time ago.
It is still really, really cold here, and I can't do anything to get warm! It's kind of ridiculous! I recently learned in my food and beverage class that some people in certain cultures eat spicy food to keep warm... maybe I should try that? Not likely since I hate spicy food.
I am now able to eat anything that I please... But I have noticed that when I do eat not the healthiest of items, I feel bloated, and very, very fat. Yes, I am aware that there is probably some mental health disorder that I meet the criteria for because of this.
We are now in the midst of the holiday season, and I recently read a report that the average American gains 15 pounds throughout the holidays! That is just ridiculous, but I am determined to keep the holiday pounds at bay! It might prove to be a huge challenge, but was not losing more than 100 a challenge in and of itself?
All year I have been looking forward to shocking my family at upcoming holiday get-togethers because most of my family members have no idea I shrank... and I am greatly disappointed to announce that this will not occur. :(
Even though I have not been updating this thing consistently like I have previously done, I am been keeping a very, very firm eye on Mr. Scale. Meaning that I have weighed myself, basically every single day. I figure that if I let go of watching the scale, that is when the pounds will ambush me again and come back in full force!
I have been consistently right around 143... which means I have maintained for two consecutive months!
You are just so awesome, seriously. Maintaining can be much harder than losing, and you are doing great. The holidays can be a tripping point, but it sounds like you are going in with a good attitude. I'll bet you will do just fine. I'm so sorry you won't get to show the "new you" to your family now, that has to be a disappointment. I just think of the joy you and they will feel when you finally do get to do a "reveal". Worth the wait, for sure. Keep an eye on Mr Scale and you will do great. I have such faith in you. Hang in there.
