As of today ( Oct 27,2003) I have lost a total of 65 lbs. You know you never know how much that is till you pick up something that weighs that, which in my case my 6 year old daughter Shelby weighs 57lbs and I know how heavy she is. My journey begin as I heard a child tell my daughter how fat her mother was. It hurt, but it was a wakeup call. I didn't realize how bad I looked and felt. I decided to do something about it. I started weight watchers and exercising and the weight started slowly coming off. That was in Jan and in that first month I lost 25 lbs. In the late part of Feb my father died and that really woke me up to my own health. I didn't want my daughter to not grow up without a mom or without a healthy role model. So I kept on keeping on and on Sept 7 ( after a month plateau) I started phen with my weight watchers. The phen started wearing off and so I just quit taking it for 4 weeks, and let me tell you , I had a hard time giving it up. I was grouchy and unbearable. But after a few days I was fine. Well last week I hit another plateau and started taken phen again on Friday Oct 24 and lost 4 lbs this weekend, so hopefully I have started the losing again and trying to meet my goal of 165. Which is just 26 more lbs. I weigh now what I weighed before I gave birth and if I keep losing I will weigh less than I have ever weighed since junior high school. Which my body has changed since then but I think I look better with age then I did then. My words of advice are to just keep pushing, it doesn't hapen overnight, but it can happen.
