Well I decided to be brave this morning and see if any of my old size 20 clothes fit and guess what?? They DID !!! Yippie!!!! How very exciting I am now able to wear all the clothes in my closet that I bought a few years ago. So I am gonna officially declare that I have now dropped another size..
Pants size now Size 20 (Start Size 28)
Shirts size now Size 18/20 (Start Size 26/28)
I am very thrilled with this because I have allot of cute clothes in the closet that I have not been able to wear, specially shirts. Although I will admit that they don't fit quite the same as they did before. When I lost the weight last time I was really working out everyday for at least an hour I was getting ready for my vacation of a lifetime to Australia. I did not realize just how much that exercise can sculpt your body. So with that being said I am gonna really try and focus on getting back into a complete exercise routine. Don't get me wrong I do exercise now but I am not as strict about it as I was several years ago. ( and even without all the exercise my size 20 clothes still look good on)
I am going to get my blood work done today, I am kinda nervous about the results of it. I know I have been screwing up with taking my protein and calcium.. I don't do it intentionally but I guess it is because I feel really good and don't think about it. I have no problem taking my vitamins and stuff every morning but after that it just seems to go down hill. You are supposed to space everything out accordingly at different times through out the day but that is so easier said then done. Because of the way my body absorbs minerals now I can't just take everything all in the morning together. Vitamins have to be taking several hours apart from calcium because supposedly if taken together it will not absorb in my system as much and that also goes the same with the protein. So this is something I really need to start focusing on, I would hate to have complications later because of vitamin deficiency's
Everyone have a great day today and check in tomorrow for my weigh in but don't be too surprised if there is not a big loss or even possibly a gain.
I am ME-chele and I am about to embark on a journey that will change the rest of my life. After years of battling my obesity I have decided to enlist the help of medical intervention -- Gastric Bypass Surgery. Please join me while I blog about my daily Battles and help me claim Victory in my war against fat. From FAT to FAB you will read about it all and watch the pounds melt away!! My Journey began April 29th, 2008
