🎶 Time keeps on drifting... into the future. 🎶 I have this song in my head for some reason. Today is Day 2 of the current 5-day fast, and I've dropped another pound. This is great! This is what I wanted to see. Now I want to see my weight drop below 342.6 lbs so I can net a loss for this current 30-day "month." I am now 5 days into this new month. I should have had a net loss already! I need to learn to be patient, though. It will happen.
Starting weight: 401 lbs
Current weight: 343.2 lbs ⇩
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 325 lbs
I have asked my husband if we can go bowling on our mutual day off. We will see how he feels on that day, but he said we can. We have our own bowling balls, bags, and shoes. We used to go bowling a lot when my dad was alive. Dad loved bowling. He was wheelchair-bound, so we had to help him use a ramp for bowling, but he had fun aiming his ramp and seeing if he could get it just right to make a strike. He would get so excited when he did!
I wonder if my bowling shoes will fit any differently now that my feet are smaller than they once were. My feet look really thin because I don't retain as much water and I don't have as much inflammation. The shoes were a bit tight before, and I'm excited to put them on again to see if there's a difference. It's a weird thing to be excited about, but I'm taking any victory I can find where I find one.
I'm not very good at bowling, or I wasn't. Maybe I am worse now? Or, who knows? Maybe I will be better now that I am capable of moving more. The ball I have is 10 lbs. I recall that it felt very heavy, but then I think that I weigh as much as 34 of those bowling balls, and I am amazed I'm able to move my body around at all.
And then I see the people from My 600 Pound Life, and I get further astounded that they can do anything at all. I mean, most are bed-bound, but a lot aren't. They are 600 and 700 lbs and some can still get up and walk a little. It's amazing. That show makes me thankful that I had never gotten to that point, though. I'm thankful every day for that.
I am thankful that I have never been bed-bound or wheelchair-bound graph:
