147 and holding....

I just thought I would check in, even if it is just with "myself"!

I am back from my trip from GA to visit my grands and I finally feel like my old self! I always get sick after I visit, and this time, I was sick when I was there. I did manage to lose weight while there, and for the most part, keep it off since I've been home. Being sick does that for you! I FINALLY went back to Zumba yesterday, the first time in a almost a month! I am currently trying to figure out if I want to lose weight, or work on maintenance....I haven't gotten my answer to that yet. 

We had beautiful weather in Georgia and Florida, I came home with a tan, but it left once it saw our dreary weather. It was nice yesterday and I was able to finish a book in the sun. I love that kind of day! I am so ready for Spring/Summer!!!

Here's some of my favorite pics from my trip. God is good and I feel like He held my hand through a lot of the trip. Just saying....

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum

My daughter and I went to Cinderella, loved it!

We RUSHED to see Anna and Elsa for Konner and he would not go anywhere near them. Thus, he is missing!

OK, one more thing...when I went to my physical in August my Dr. had said I should probably wean off my hormones at some point, so I started to do that...from 1 pill...to 1/2 pill...to 1/2 pill every other day....and then my trip came up, and I was out of meds...Dr. wouldn't refill until I had my mammogram....I think that the hormones and the lack of them were a big reason that I was feeling so sluggish and bad. I actually got my refill last Friday, felt better by Sunday, went back to workout yesterday, and have slept a million times better since I am back on track. I had also quit taking my magnesium because it makes me go potty, back on that too! As of today...I feel GOOD!!! Yay....

Blessings and happy scales....

149.6 UGH!!

Hubby and I had a bit of a weird flu type thing the entire week before Christmas. We could function, eat, etc. but it wasn't pleasurable...with that I managed to get down to my lowest....147. I had decided to give myself a week to eat sugar treats and I started shortly after Christmas with a gift that my daughter had bought me that had chocolate, potato chips, popcorn, pretzels, etc. in it. OMG...then I went on to all the candy, chocolate, cookies....all the goodies left over. When I finally stopped last Sunday, I had made it back up to 149.6. It has taken months to lose the 2 lbs...about 2 weeks to gain it back. I am hoping by starting fresh and back to my Zumba, it will disappear quickly. HA! 

I have been amazed at myself for 3 whole days. As I write this it is almost dinner time and I am having steak and salad. 3 days with no added sugar treats! Go me!!! I feel better in 3 short days, and I am shooting to lose at least another 10 lbs. I don't think I will ever get back down to my 132, I don't know if it is worth the life change to be at that weight. TODAY....I feel good! 

Thank you for people stopping by to say hello and that you are still around. I would love to stay connected. Blogging was a big part of my original success. 

Happy 2015!!!

Blessed :)
