Starting Over

You are just shedding those pounds girl! :hurray:

I don't know if I'll take the train or not. Flying would be a LOT faster..lol.

Glad to hear you got to sit in a/c today. :D That's great that you get to get out in the field more (not great about that guy being sick, though). I am sure you find it more interesting.

Glad to hear Kim is doing well. I should to call her.

I hope they keep coming off!

Flying would be faster, but I don't care how you get here, just when. And make it soon! Lol!


Damn, I am suffering from major insomnia tonight. Bella woke me up an hour ago and I can't fall back to sleep. I friggin wide awake! I think I'm gonna go find some Seinfeld rerun or something. Good night, or morning. Oh what the hell, bye til later!
 
The scale said 162.0 this morning!!!!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!!!

I am loving this new thyroid treatment!

Weeeeeeee! Send me all your old fat clothes...you don't need them anymore!:party:
Thyroid treatment or no, you're working your arse off, and you should be proud of yourself. :)
 
Hey sister!! OOOOHHHH LOOK AT YOU GO, down the scale that is. WAY TO GO girlie, I'm so happy for you! I haven't been on the scale in a few weeks and since it's about a week or so before aunt flo visits, I'm going to pass for now also. I've been craving carbs BIG TIME the past two days and it's driving me nuts!! LOL LOL

So, your working outdoors now, COOL BEANS! Are you still part time?? How's Bella doing?? Is everyone feeling better now? Is your hubby home now or did you say he was flying out again??? David is in Indiana, for his parents retirement party, I couldn't go because of the new job, but I have this sneaking suspicion, he is going to be home tonight, even though he told me Monday, don't ask me why I just have this feeling. For starters he didn't call me last night which I found odd, but that leads me to believe, that he's trying to get me thinking that he's really busy with all the family and having a good time, which I hope he is, but that he's going to surprise me this evening by showing up around 8 or 9, we will see. I tell you what, if he doesn't show up tonight, his happy ass better be calling me. LOL LMAO!!!!!

I really thought about going into town today and clothes shopping, yeah I know I hate clothes shopping, but I really need to find some nice pants suits for work, I only currently have one pair of nice slacks that fit and they are getting big and I'm getting tired of wearing them. I need some new stuff and badly. And with the winds we have been having lately, I have to hold my skirts down everyday so I don't have a "Marilyn Monroe" moment when I walk to my car! LOL LOL

I really need to head out into the garden and pick some strawberries, I noticed there were a ton of them ready to be picked last night, but it was so hot out there I really didn't feel like standing out there for half hour trying to get them all, but I don't want them to go to waste either, so I'll head out there shortly and get them all. Maybe I'll make a nice strawberry dessert tonight or something. I have carpets that need steam cleaning today, so that's the first thing on my agenda for the day, once I get my butt off this computer. LMAO!!! I miss ya girl! I'll try and buzz you later okay.
Take Care and have a good day!

So glad to see you back on the forum Kim!! I wanna come to OK to see you sometime this summer. Give me a call and we can set a date.
 
Well the new thyroid treatment is DEFINITELY working. The scale is now at 161.0! I am having a hard time adjusting to it though but it should level out in a week or two. Right now I am jittery and hyper and have zero appetite. I am having to struggle just to get 1200 calories a day, the smell of some things make me nauseous right now. The doc says I will normalize but it may be like this for a week or two. And my metabolism has sped up and it raging to maintain the muscle I have built the past 20 months.

The jittery part sucks but I am so damn glad to see the number on the scale finally dropping! To celebrate I went to Warren's yesterday and splurged on 3 pairs of shoes, then got me a bunch of new clothes that FIT. I'm going to post pics next weekend, I have run out of time today and will be too busy this week.
 
That is so awesome!! :party:

I gotta get me some of that medicine--I need something to kill my appetite and rev up my metabolism..:smilielol5: I'm eating like a pig these days. :banghead:
 
Ooops, hope my comment didn't come off wrong. I meant more that the doctors FINALLY figured out how to help you so you are finally able to get to where you should be considering all your hard work and minimalist and healthy eating. You must be so relieved as the scale moves ever DOWN DOWN DOWN!!!!

I knew what you meant. Thanks for the compliments and all the encouragement this past year. You truly are a great friend.

The scale is still at 161 this morning and I hope to have it down to 159 by friday. I went to the gym last night for a couple hours and burned 800 calories. This pill makes me jittery but my workouts are phenomenal. I have tons of energy and stamina and am loving it.

Well, gotta go. I will post more later, I will be at the jobsite for the rest of the day.
 
Good luck at the weigh in Friday! 161 is sooo fantastic. I wish I was as dedicated as you are. I really have to give you credit for sticking it out so long and not throwing in the towel when the scale wasn't moving. That shows a lot about your strength--and stubborness. :D
 
Hey Super Star! :waving:

Look at your almost breaking into the 150's I'm sure you will be there before I ever get there, even though I have been going to the gym each week, I haven't been as consistent with most my workouts, meaning I used to push myself to stay for an extra class, but lately, I'll be lucky to get into my normal hour class and then leave. The days I don't have a class like Thursday I just went in and rode 8 miles and then went and busted on the stair climber for 20 minutes, the bike ride said I burned 500 calories and the stair master another 130 or so, not a huge burn for what I'm used to, but thank gosh I'm still going, with all the chocolate I've been craving the past week, I sure would have put on a pound or two.

So how's the outside job going?? How's Bella and the H??? I hope your all doing well, I really need to give you a call soon.
Love and hugs
Kim
 
The scale said 160 this morning! I did not weight in over the weekend because I went out drinking with some friends on thursday and saturday night so I knew I was retaining water. I have been sick with a killer stomach bug since sunday so I'm not sure just how accurate the scale was. I may be dehydrated from all the vomiting and "not eating" so we'll see. I feel much better today but still have no appetite and I feel really weak, so no running for me for a couple more days. I hope to be 158 by this weekend, maybe lower.
 
Hi Amy, can't wait to hear about the 150's. I see both of us haven't been coming on the forum much lately so make sure you keep in touch on our private emails. Luv ya girlie :).
 
The scale is at 161 now, not sure why since I barely ate anything this past week due to being sick. I also skipped a few days of the new thyroid treatment so that may be why. Damnit I'll be in the 150's next week or else!!

Cita, been pretty busy lately. I'll shoot you an email later this weekend!!
 
You NAUGHTY girl! You are not supposed to miss your medication..not that I'm so consistent when I'm supposed to take something haha. Hopefully this'll be a better WL week for ya. TTYS :).
 
Yes Cita, I was naughty and didn't take my meds. I was throwing up everything so I didn't bother even trying. I was finally over the bug on friday, thank goodness and back to my running and weight training by saturday.

I just got back from another 4 mile run (got one on saturday) and plan to get about 30 minutes of weight training in before bed. I was at the jobsite most of the day today and will be again tomorrow, which requires tons of walking/standing. Especially since the elevators are down. I am TIRED!
 
You rawk! I hit the gym yesterday for an hour. I am trying to get back to the 5 hours per week of exercise as I've been getting in around 3 lately and have gained 2 pounds. So I must STEP IT UP again and I have been this week (also did an hour on the elliptical on Sunday). TTYS :)
