I am beyond excited to be down 5 lbs from my last weigh in! I actually got onto the scale twice to verify the weight was right! I had my first fill on Monday, which I'm sure had a lot to do with it considering I haven't done much exercise this week at all. Regardless of the fabulous weight loss I need to get back into my exercise routine.
I have a mini goal of getting to 278 by Christmas, 100 lbs down from the start of this journey. I believe I may have to adjust my goal! Once I hit 278, if it is before Christmas, I will adjust my goal and make it for the new year. I just have to figure out what that will be.
We had some out of town visitors at work this week that we had to host, and provide a team lunch for. Being a couple days out from my fill I had to be on pureed, so I couldn't eat what was provided. I was very anxious about how I would eat in front of 20+ people and not eat what they were eating! I packed my lunch and when the time came I just excused myself and informed those around me that I was on a special diet right now. No one even batted an eye, and I didn't feel uncomfortable at all drinking my protein shake and eating my yogurt. I have to keep reminding myself that other people do not care about what I eat as much as I always think they do!
Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season!
Ohh you will totally make that goal! Really proud of you!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what 2012 brings for all of us!!
That is an awesome loss!!! You are alomost down 100 pounds...you are a rockstar!!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you handled the lunch with no problems. We have our Christmas luncheon the week after my first fill and I am thinking about just not even going to it. Only one person at work knows that I had surgery.
I feel the same way...makes me nervous eating in front of people because I'm convinced they're scrutinizing what I'm eating. LOL...I gotta RELAX about that.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the loss! That's awesome!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a great week, it's funny how we alway seem to think people are judging us on what we eat, but when we stop and hing about it, they have just as much stuff on their minds as we do, so why would they care?
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing, great job!!
ReplyDeleteI feel like it's been years since I've seen you. You are knocking the world over, just like I knew you would. I'll see you soon, *M*
