#62 -- 49 inches total

Well I have new stats. I have lost #62 pounds and 49 inches total!!

This is so amazing to me. Ever week or so parts of me are just

melting. I did the happy dance when i hit #60 pounds gone forever!

Now my next goal is #73 pounds because that will put me at #200

pounds which i havent seen in 20yrs. I still have a pair of

wranglers from then though...LOL. I WILL get back into them too if

they dont rot first. LOL. I do feel guilty about not excersizing

lately. I went back to work November 3rd and i have been so busy and

mentally tired at the end of the day i just want to go home! So i

avoid the gym as my excuse i suppose. I know i need to get back to

taking care of my body though. I feel 100% better working now than i

did before. I have energy all day. I walk across the street often to

the other buildings. So actually its not like im not getting any

excersize at all. Just not the right kind of excersize. My main

problem is getting enough fluids during the day. I really fall short

on my 8 cup limit most days. I do my protein drink first thing at

7:15am. Then sometimes i get down 2 cups of hot green tea.

Ocassionally i indulge in 2 cups of Red Diamond tea sweetened with

splenda.( i know thats a no no cuz of the caffene) but it sure is

good. I am doing real good on the choices i make at school for my

meal though. I make the hot rolls and enjoy the aroma but i never

indulge. God they smell good. I made the Gooey Pumpkin Pie bars for

Thanksgiving at school also and i admit i took ONE bite. But only

one. For Christmas dessert at school for our christmas dinner i

am fixing Peach Chrisp with pecan topping. I hope the kids like it.

Its amazing how i dont crave the foods im around at school. But as

the doctor explained when he rerouted my stomach it gave me that " i

dont care feeling " and its awesome! I sure do enjoy all the

compliments i have gotten lately. They make me feel so good. Being

called skinny minny, skinny butt (thats a joke!) NOT i know better.

I love the hugs i get from Mike and can feel his arms go all the way

around me. I love when Summer and Lilly say " meme your getting

skinnier and skinnier! " LOL. Its just a very happy feelin on the

inside. Some have to look twice and say, " i didnt recognize you. "

Thats a pretty good feelin too Im not braggin here, Im just

sharing my inner most feelins with you all. So please dont take me

wrong. Ok i think ive blabbered on enough. Till next month or

hopefully around a month. God Bless.
