H.H. 8/23-29/09

This week I’m full of questions. Here are just a few:
Did the headache cause the nausea or did the nausea cause the headache?
I fight to stay awake while sitting on the coach, because I figure if I take a nap I won’t be able to sleep tonight. So riddle me this batman…why do I get a second wind when it’s time for me to go to sleep?
How can I be two places at once? And how can I possible do all this work they expect me to do? I’m barely treading water with all I have to do and yet the man (aka: the principal) adds more to our (the counselors) work load. I find this illogical, unreasonable and inconsiderate. Despite this I survived the first week of school. It wore me out, I slept 11 hours Friday night and 12 hours Saturday night, and I still feel tired. I’m not ready to face tomorrow, but it’s going to come whether I’m ready or not. I’m so glad next weekend we get three days off.
Tuesday was a good day. Work went smoother than Monday; we actually got a potty break as well as a lunch break, unlike Monday. However, the best part came after work. I took a much needed nap when I got home. I decided that Mondays approach did not work (see above question). After my nap I headed off to my WW meeting. I am now officially down 51.6 lbs!!!!! After lots and lots of hard work and time I finally passed the 50 mark, earning me my 50 lb medal.


If you look closely you will notice that two of the cloth stars are doubled. This is because I had to lose 30 and 40 lbs twice.

For fun I put on my “fat” pants. As I lost weight I got rid of the clothes as I shrunk out of them. But I did keep one pair of pants the largest size I ever bought as well as my comfy sweatshirts. I can’t wait to see how much bigger they look at 75 lbs down and then when I reach my goal weight.

Baggy Butt
Hurry and take the picture before they fall off

Lots of wiggle room.

It made me sick and happy at the same time when I saw these pictures of me at my highest weight. It made me sick to realize that I ever got heavy and happy that I don’t look like that anymore.

Yes those are the same pants as above

I'm glad that I now have a chin, no many chins, as well as a jaw line.
What a difference 50 pounds makes!

I know its a fake cheesy smile, but look, one chin and an actual jaw line!

Saturday was good. First off I got to sleep in, always a great thing. Second, Neal and I went over to Erin & Shawn’s for dinner. The food was great and the company even better. (Even if Shawn did cheat at Mario Cart.)

  2. Thanks Betty. I know how you feel about the the gym. I HATE working out. I have to force myself to do it. It helps to motivate me when I see a difference in my body.

  9. Pizza is evil! I can eat a whole pizza all on my own and not even feel full. Don't get me wrong it tastes great, but it is still evil.
