Drink 4 bottles of water daily

Read daily

4 cardio workouts

Follow meal plan

I weighed in at 247.4lbs this morning and I've been the same weight for 3 days now but still a 2lbs loss from last week so I'm content. I don't want to obsess over my weight but it's hard sometimes. I'd like to lose 2lbs this week but I will try to not feel bad about it if I don't.

Oh, also, getting my marriage certificate this week!

It saddens me to say that this is going to be the last sandwich featured on my blog for the rest of the month.  I’m afraid the zero carb bread might be what’s stalling my weight loss since it’s the only new-ish thing in my diet.  I’ll try cutting it out and see if my weight starts to reverse directions. 

It sucks because I LOVE sandwiches and it’s made me really happy and satisfied to eat a sandwich every day while staying keto but I’m also working way too hard to have my efforts stalled because of it.  We’ll see how this change goes.  Although, notice the low carb tortillas are still in play.  Though, I might have to cut those out as well if this experiment doesn’t work. 

It’s a rainy cold Sunday, all the windows are open and erp is happily playing on her own on the living room floor surrounded by her toys. Kevin is off hunting and gathering (shopping at Costco) as I sit here typing this up.  It’s a good day.

Feeling a bit low this morning so I decided to do a comparison to remind myself how far I have come. I am now in a size 10 (pre surgery bloat) and I literally couldn't be happier. Rewind to when the left side picture was taken,i was in a size 22 and miserable.Loosing weight hasn't just been about how I looked,I mean that is a huge part but it's also the life I have gained as well. I do things now that my old self never dreamed of doing or never thought I would be able to do these things,for years I neglected my body and my health and blamed everything else but me for the size I was.

This is so hard to post, but I need to. THIS IS THE BEGINNING. I'm ready for this journey. I want to be fit and healthy again. This is my highest and current weight. I don't think the number is important, but I should lose about 70 lbs to be at ideal weight for my height. I have begun meal planning with a calorie restrictive diet and I am back in the gym. Wish me luck! Will follow back, especially other fitness/weight loss blogs. -Chey

NSV? of sorts

my mom looking at me like i am an insane person after i cheerily tell her that i refuse to starve my body brings me a lot of satisfaction

here’s an actual conversation from just now:

*me, coming home after a super quick run-walk, making myself a healthy snack in the kitchen*

*mom, who is on a new diet kick (again), walks in, stares at me like i’m committing a crime* “but i’m going to start making dinner soon!”

*me, nodding cheerily, ignoring the subtext* “yes, but it is 5 pm, and since my stomach was feeling off this morning, all i have had today is some fruit and like one portion of chicken, so i’m gonna have a snack now, and then eat a good dinner”

*mom, still looking shocked* “but you don’t need to eat any more than that!*

*me, grinning widely* “Actually yes, I do. Do you want help with dinner?”

She may be eating like 800 kcal a day and calling it “healthy” but I’m done with that. 

I have done that with her every year since I was 11, only to gain more weight when I inevitably lose control (and one hell of a screwed up mindset on top of it).

I’m going to do this my way.

Post op day 13

Oh my gawd!where has the last 13 days gone?! I know I've been sleeping loads but seriously?

Anyway now that the dressings are off and I'm allowed to shower again,I am starting to feel really good,walking is also getting easier as the swelling goes down so there isn't so much pulling on my stitches,no more irritation from the dressings and I just feel cleaner and slightly more comfortable.

The only down side to being able to shower whilst having stitches still in is that they have to air dry for quite a while so effectively once I'm showered I have to lay around with my tits out drying 😂 normally this wouldn't be an issue however I recently gave keys out to family members so that when they popped in to check on me I wouldnt have to get up and open doors,so I'm slightly worried about some relative walking in whilst I'm air drying 🙈
