| Well, the pounds are just falling off this week. I have gone from being 181 for a month to 173 in less than a week, and I don't think (hope) it is stopping just yet :-) Maybe I'll be in the 160's very soon!!!!!!!!!!!
Only thing I'm worried about... The last time I did this was right before my period. Then, when my period started, I gained it all back and had to fight to get it off again. Then, I was stuck at in a plateau at the weight I was just before my period for about a month. On the bright side, I got back down to that smaller weight before the plateau started. On the down side, I was stuck in a plateau for a month. I guess, if this is the pattern that my body is going to follow, I'll be able to handle it better knowing that I will start losing weight again just before my monthly flow. We'll see how things pan out I guess. I have lost 56 pounds so far, which means I only have another 51 pounds to my first goal (depends on how I look at this weight before I decide if I want to stay at that weight) :-) Can you tell that I'm in a good mood today :-D Anyways, my WL Moments.... Yesterday, I went to visit Linda (at her school) whom I hadn't seen in over a month. When she first looked at me, she said she didn't recognize me and was trying to figure out who was coming into her classroom. It took her a second to figure it out. Then, later that day, we went to her house. When I walked into her house, her son was there. When I couldn't hear him, he asked his mom who I was... She was like "That's MICKEY!" She told me about it later. This is not the first time that I've had people say that they didn't recognize me, which just feels wierd/cool b/c I don't FEEL any different. Even friends who see me about once a week or once every two weeks have said that they didn't recognize me on first glance :-D The funniest part, though, is that sometimes, when walking by a window and seeing my reflection, I don't always recognize MYSELF, and I have to do a double-take to figure out it is me I'm seeing. I've become obsessed with looking at my reflection in windows LOL. |
