I weighed in at 198.8 today. I had hoped to lose more than two pounds this week (since it was only my second week on the diet) but I guess that's still good. Especially considering the trauma to my mouth and body this past week. My body is probably just hanging on to calories and water trying to heal me up proper like. Lol. My mouth is still so sore from all that wonderful oral surgery. They really cut me to shreds in there. Oh well.
Dieting is hard work but every pound lost makes it worth it. I am always happy when I am thinner and very unhappy with myself at all times when I am heavier so it isn't really a choice anymore. I need to lose the weight. I want to feel good in my clothes again! Looking forward to the day when I fit back into my work uniforms properly. I am able to get back into my own pants but they are tighter than tight yet. You have no idea....but they are on so GO ME! Yay!!!
I can't wait to get back to eating like a normal person (meaning being able to chew food again)!
I've exercised a lot lately and have been drinking a ton of water everyday. My appetite has decreased and I feel pretty good. I think maybe I would have lost more weight if it weren't for the fact that I overdid my work out yesterday and my legs were sooooo sore this morning. Supposedly, when your muscles are sore they retain water in order to heal and repair the damaged tissue. That and the mouth trauma that my body is trying to heal. (Wow! My legs really are sore today!)
I measure myself in a few spots on Monday nights and I lost 1-2 inches in all the right places! Yay!
I had a chiropractor appointment today. I feel a ton better now that I have been going but the appointments themselves are excruciating. He does what is called the Gratson technique on my trouble spots. It literally feels as though you are being skinned alive. It's torture...but it does really help. It breaks up the scar tissue in your soft tissues and forces the body to generate new, healthy tissue. It also leaves bruising in the particularly troublesome areas due to that fact.
Anyhow, I don't feel like typing. Have a great night!
Always keep your goal in mind!
