Long time no post.
I watched a YouTube WLS Vlog once where the vlogger commented that as she loses more weight, she vlogs less because she's out living her life. I'm finding that the same thing is true for myself. Instead of being a hermit I'm busy, busy, busy. Even when I'm home I'm usually cleaning my ass off. Yes, you read that right. I've become a housekeeping nazi. And I LOVE IT. I work all day and then I come in the door and clean, clean, clean. I cook (what??) clean and clean some more. I'm pretty sure my house hasn't been this clean since right before we moved in.
So anyway - my blogging, as well as my vlogging, have become more infrequent. But it's a good thing because I've traded my lazy hermit lifestyle for a busy & exciting one.
Weight Update:
Today I weighed in at 265. WOOT!! My starting weight was 379, so I am down 114 pounds. For awhile my loss really slowed but I kicked it up at the gym and cut back on some of my calories and now it's heading down at a steady pace again. My BMI has gone from 59 to 39 and I have less weight left to lose than the amount I've already lost. That feels fabulous. :) I am not exactly sure what my surgeon will suggest for a goal weight but I know that at 168 my BMI will be 24.8 - and that's the most I can weigh to have a BMI that is considered 'normal.' Who knows if that is even attainable for me without plastic surgery but we'll see. I would be ecstatic just to be 199!
Non-Scale Victory
I LOVE Sarah McLachlan. In 2007 my husband bought me tickets to her "Afterglow" concert for Valentine's Day. The concert was in the fall and it was amazing. I bought a tour shirt that I knew I couldn't wear because it was 4 sizes too small. But alas, it was the largest size they sold. Yesterday, I wore it for the first time. :) :)
New pics to come soon!
