However, the stress from that and a past relationship not having enough to do other than find ways to annoy me created a year (plus a few added months when I had anxiety from knowing my job was ending) where I was less than ideal with my eating. I'm currently at 247.8 lbs. Gahhhh. The worst part about it is that in some sense I still feel skinny and really I am. So many people have told me that I was too skinny at 207 and that they like me at this weight. 207 was too thin but I still believe that between 215-220 was the right weight for me. My goal weight was 225 and I achieved it but now I'm above it.
I. AM. NOT. HAPPY. Hahahaha.
The question now becomes, what am I going to do about it. Well... hmm. I've been thinking about that a lot lately. I think the biggest change with my weight gain has been my face. So that's an added motivation. *laughs* My recent blood tests have revealed a low level of Vitamin D. Gahhh. That means I'm not going to be absorbing calcium. I need to get better at that. I need to get back to the 70/30 (Protein/Veggies) eating plan. I need to make sure I'm getting my water. And above all, I need to get more exercise. Stay tuned. This will be another journey. Hopefully it won't be a very long one. Goal weight is 220 lbs. That's basically 28 lbs. I'd like to be under 230 by June 1st and at goal by July 1st. Ambitious I know. But we'll see.
So hold on to something and here we go..................
