Well summer time is here pretty much and of course that means shorts weather!  I have told myself that I will not feel bad this summer because I am in transition.  By fall I can buy some new clothes and I will feel so much better.  I used to jog years ago but gave it up, I think I will take it up again after I shed some more weight, right now I dont think I could do it and walking will get me through and train me to jog again.  Yesterday I went on a long walk pulling my 3 yr old in the wagon, boy was I pooped out when I got back but it sure felt good to do. Hopefully this weekend will be a good one, no major plans but to stay out of food trouble!!  Having my buddys sure helps!

Well I have been ignoring my blog lately and I really shouldnt.  The weight is coming off slowly but surely, I get soooo impatient at times its hard to wait it out.  Sometimes I wish I could just fall asleep and wake up 2 months later 75 pounds thinner!!!!  HAHA   Anyway, I know anything worth doing is worth doing right and patience is a virtue and all that stuff but MAN is it hard to wake up every day with my belly still there!  Yes it is getting smaller of course, my clothes are fitting much better and I am starting not to feel so horrible when I am out in public.  I think that has been the hardest thing in being so big and fat, like a vicious circle, I hated being out in public so I ate in private and hated being out in public, etc……  Now I do have some hope because I have lost nearly 30 pounds and that is a lot of butter!  But I have a loooong way to go.  I need to keep in mind that yes I have a ways to go, but hey look how far Ive come already!  Next month on June 18th is our family picnic and it will have been 2 months since Ive seen everyone and Im really hoping for someone to notice Ive lost weight!!!!  What a great feeling that would be!  Last christmas my little great nephew informed me that it looked like I had gained weight (he is 8 mind you) I was so horrified I didnt know what to say, I wanted to knock his teeth out is what I wanted to do.  Anyway, another day another struggle, but another victory at the end!!!!
