I'm feeling lonely and emotionally full today. Stressed about my supervisor's absence and guilty about the stress. Feeling fat, too. But also feel the Lord's presence and love. I'm hurting a lot. I'm so lonely. But there's no one I want to be around just now. Actually I wouldn't mind a relaxing chat on the phone or an email!

I noted to a friend yesterday that into my third week of exercise (water aerobics) it finally feels like my muscle tone is returning. I was feeling really good last night and couldn't resist pulling out the tape measure, even though Monday is measuring day. I was right... half an inch off of virtually every measure (except wrist).

I plan to celebrate my birthday in grand style this year. I'll be turning ?? Ha Ha!! I'll never tell. One of my favorite female gospel singers is coming to town, and my girlfriend gave me money so I can attend. I'm syched!! My plan was to be at 200 lbs or less by my birthday (mid Aug.); bringing my weight loss total to 82 lbs. since January 08. That's when I got serious about doing lc. A week ago, I was at 209 and today, I'm at 204.5. Kuddos to me!!

I've got a new suit that was given to me, that's four sizes smaller than what I've been. I tried it on, and it fits....

I have always been one to embrace change...i love it.....it's exciting....it's challenging....it's motivating. So why then do i find myself realizing that this change for weight loss to be so elusive? I was at curves this morning and albeit the mirror they have there is not very flattering.....i guess it's not meant to be....but i just don't look the way i see myself. I am reminded of a Jerry Springer program i saw once where this woman was well over 400 lbs and said she liked herself, said she didn't feel fat and couldn't see herself that way. Well the audience and Springer were all dumbfounded....
