My last post was on 9/22 and here it is October 9th. I can always tell how I'm feeling by the length of time between my blogs. This has been a long one. I've hit that dreaded plateau! I can't get below 178.0! On top of this I have no appetite...not a good thing. Have to keep my metabolism cooking and "not eating" is definitely not the way to do that. My doctor, who I saw this last Monday, is tickled pink because she says I'm only 2.5 pounds from losing 30 pounds. I must have heard her wrong in June. I must have been 207 pounds when I saw her then. It's funny how you only hear what you want to hear. I could have sworn she said 204. Anyway...she's happy. My numbers are still great with BP at 116/60 and the rest just as good. I want to be 165 by Christmas, but I don't think I'll make it because I've been at 178 for a few weeks now and the scale isn't moving. I know part of the problem is my inability to exercise and that problem won't go away until my heart decides to stop giving me chest pains. Losing weight hasn't helped in that area. It's helped everything else but not my angina. Maybe if I can lose another 15 pounds it will help, but there's no guarantee! I'm pleased that I've lost as much as I have, I got my 20 pound bear in my last shipment. My weight with NS doesn't reflect all that I've lost according to my doctor. I think I'll steal her scale. It weighs me lighter than my scale here at home, LOL! This weekend I'm going through my closet and getting rid of everything that is too big and there's a lot to get rid of. Today I wore a pair of white slacks and they were so big on me my friends were laughing at my baggy butt! So I guess it's time....new clothes. Yea! Well here's hoping I get past this plateau and start losing again. I see a lot of new faces on the blog...welcome!
