I hit the -50 pound mark on Saturday. Hooray! Good for me! Then I went to Father's Day dinner at my in-laws. Oh well, I only gained ½ pound, but it made that ever important number (to me) go up a notch.
Today I go to one of my doctors. He hasn't seen me in 6 months and I've lost those wonderful 50 pounds ±, and my blood pressure is down. At least my blood pressure is down when I take it at home, the drive to Seattle and being in a doctor's office tend to make it go up some. He will be pleased about the weight loss though, it's one of those big bugaboos with him that I was so heavy; let's hope that it means that I can decrease my meds. again.
My niece is on a campaign against feeding treats to children in the classrooms and I happen to agree with her (and not because she is my niece, I am anti-sugar also). Her blog was started as she was training for her Ironman last year. It continues as her battle to improve the health of her family and weight loss. I don't agree with absolutely everything she posts, but... If you are interested in her training or her weight-loss battle her blog is ironmom2011.blogspot.com. It's an interesting read.
My husband left to work out of state for the next few weeks. My goal is to lose 10 pounds while he is gone. Amazingly enough I have a whole bunch of summer clothes that I could wear if I lose 10 pounds and tone up my middle. The yoga is helping to tone up the middle, but those core moves are hard for me to do, but I want my middle to be little so I will practice, practice, practice.
