I am so happy today! I dropped a huge amount of weight! I expected a pound or so. But I dropped down to 351 lbs today! Yesterday, I was at 354.2 lbs! That is 3.2 lbs! That is a "whoosh" if ever I saw one! I am only 2 lbs away from getting back down to 349 lbs. I can't believe it! I can't wait to get home and see if the weight loss sticks this time.
Starting weight: 401 lbs
Current weight: 351 lbs ⇩
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 325 lbs
The net loss for this "month" is only 0.2 lbs, but it's a loss! It's not a gain! For the mere fact that it is a loss and not a gain, I am overjoyed. Again, I am over the moon just like that infamous cow! I really can't wait to get down to a normal weight, but I'll accept being under 300 lbs. That will be nice. I can't wait to see myself at 299 lbs and below. I wonder how different I will look.
I got on the scale and saw 351 lbs, and I was thrilled, but I don't feel as though I have dropped any inches at all. My belly seems to me to be larger now than it was a few weeks ago. Am I imagining it? My face doesn't look any thinner either. It seems a bit rounder, actually. Am I simply too close to the situation to see the changes? I forgot to measure myself this week. I was so discouraged last week, and I think that it may have contributed to my forgetting.
I was watching a show about adoption recently. My husband doesn't want any more children. He has a son from his first marriage. I can't have children at all. It works, but I have always wanted to be a mom. There are a lot of older children who find it difficult to find forever homes. If I had the means, I might have tried to convince my husband to adopt a pre-teen or teen. I know that's not fair to him, but I doubt we'd ever have the means, so it's not a real concern. It's a wish. It's a dream.
I'm a bit sad that I don't have any kids by relatives or friends that I can spoil, enjoy, or influence. I would like to be someone's aunt. That would be fun. I need to stop thinking about kids, though. I know that I really have no hope of realizing this particular dream. I am sure that I can simply be fulfilled by all that I already have. I have a wonderful husband. We both have jobs. And we are working on better health. We live well within our means, so we have a small savings. We have nice things. It's really a dream.
