Weigh In



This week I stayed the same. But, I am ok with that. HEY I am down 85 pounds! I know the scale is now inching it self down. But, I am not worried about that. I know these 85 pounds down is making a tremendous difference in my life. And this is a life style change. Right now if I don't lose another pound, I have increased my health greatly. But, I also know if I just keep on keeping on with this life style, my body will gradually let go of this excess weight. It will have no choice. Plus in April my doctor says I may be coming off insulin all together! Which will help the weight loss as well. My hemoglobin A1C is non diabetic even. It's 5.1-5.4 For over a year now. 7-8 is good diabetic control. Under 6 is non diabetic. So I am way under non diabetic levels!

My stats:
Starting Weight: 252
Last Week: 167
This Week: 167
Goal Weight: 100
Dec. 31st Goal: 135

Hey Heather! You never cease to amaze me! You always stay so motivated even though things don't go so fast, but that's great because the weight loss will be permanent, and it definately has a great benefit on your health. I'm curious what you are eating each day to help you lose weight...it would be cool to see a sort of sample menu of your day! I've been low carbing for a long time, and I'm sick of it. Keep on doing what you are doing, your doing so great!!! *hugs*

Today, I will be having, probably the same breakfast as yesterday. For lunch will be the same as yesterdays lunch. And dinner will be A new kind of veggie meatloaf, salad, and blueberry pie. (all recipes on my site)

I don't eat a ton of salad, this week I'm into them. Usually though I eat a lot of grilled veggies, I do on my GF grill, in the kitchen.

Go to my site, I have eaten all the recipes on there, and basically unless we eat out, it's what I eat every day.
