| Monday September 6, 2004: Happy Labor Day!!!!!! What a beautiful day off we have here. It has been an eventful summer too. Except for one moment the summer has been pretty good, and the weather was perfect. I even celebrated the last two weekends of this summer in a big way....I went to the beach both weekends!!!!! Can you believe that!!!! My big behind was at the beach in a two piece. No I wasn't in a bikini, I would have been arrested for that one. I had a short and tank top set back from 5 years ago ( a size 16). And it fit, well my boobs were a little too big for it, but still I looked pretty decent in it. It felt great to be out sunning and enjoying the beach. The first time in almost 4 years. I can't wait for next summer, I'm going to be out there every weekend it's nice. I didn't realize how much I missed the beach, and even with all the skinny minnies in bikinis I felt great about myself. Because it took a lot for me to get to this point and I know I will get to my next goal. But of course every parade has a bit of rain. We discovered yesterday that my BF is being robbed by his nephew. I always thought he was nuts or forgot where he put stuff or how he spent his money. But twice in one month he has been missing money from his dresser. What nailed it was finding the locks on the garage door switched. We checked the caller id to find he called continually though the day, knowing we were going to the beach, now we know where he has been getting his money and why he has been avoiding us (guilt). That bastard has cause many fights between my BF and myself. Well now we pretty much know its him. He has had a few chances to make copies of our house keys and the garage keys. It couldn't be anyone else. So know we are going to set him up and nail him in the act. And when we do I'm having him locked up. It's terrible, it really is. My BF does everything for him, and so does his father. And yet he steals from everyone...and he's 35 with a job that pays better than mine and my BF's. Crazy huh? And I thought my BF was nuts for yelling about missing clothes and tools and money. All this time it was him. The prick. Well I have lots of laundry to do. I will keep you up to date on what happens. We have a lot to set in motion. |

| Thursday September 9, 2004: I am so happy to report that I have lost another 2 lbs. Another 2 more pounds and I will officially and forever be under 200 lbs!!!!! Can you tell how excited I am? I haven't been under that in almost 3-4 years. As of today at an 87lbs loss, I have until October 27th to lose another 13 lbs to join the century club. I really do think I can make it, But the thought of losing 13 more pounds still looks like a daunting task even in the face of my 87 lbs loss. Another first in a long time for me is dancing. Last Friday I was in such good spirits that I was just in the mood to groove. And man did I ever groove, I danced for almost 3 1/2 hours straight through, like I used to back in my haydays of clubbing. What an amazing feeling not to be winded, I was dancing song after song, loving and relishing every moment. I can't wait to go to my friend's wedding and dance there. Yep, you heard right.....I'm going to a wedding. It's been so long since I've been to any functions to see my old friends because I hid from everyone because of my weight. They might not notice much of a loss, becuase I haven't seen these particular friends in so long, that they probably last saw me when I weighed around 230 or so. It would be great if I could hit my century mark in time for the wedding. And to celebrate I will be buying a new outfit just for the occasion. But before I end my night, I just want to give a shout out to Geo. Geo is a wonderful woman that I have been in contact with through emails. She just had surgery on Tuesday with my surgeon. I stopped by the hospital to visit her and shocked her. I don't think she really expected me to come for a visit. It was our first meeting at that. What a wonderful woman and friend I had made. This whole weight loss journey has brought some wonderful people into my life, including my Georgia girl. And it has given me back my life and a better outlook on my life. I am so grateful for this opportunity. OKay I'm off my soapbox....hahaha!!! Night everyone. |
