I'm having a really good day today. It's 57 degrees out and the sun is shining. The clouds (the few there are) are high and thin. It's just a beautiful day!!! I washed my car today, and while I was doing it, I realized that that simple chore that used to be difficult for me was actually a breeze and ENJOYABLE!!! I am noticing a lot of changes other than the scale dropping. Finally, my pants are starting to get baggy. I'm also noticing that the rolls that once plagued my back are dimishing. In fact, I've lost nearly 32 lbs and my pants are getting too big but....my bras are getting too small!!! I attribute that to all the laundry I do at work. It's really quite a work out folding a bizzillion sheets and towels a day. My back is getting really strong and LEAN!!! My waist is really taking shape. I rarely take ibuprophen for my back anymore. I was taking 800 mg at least 2X a day to get through my shift. Now, I'm down to taking 600 mg about 2X a WEEK!!! This is huge! I also believe I have a bone spur in my left heel. The pain was excruciating back in October but it feels quite a bit better now. I'm still lacking energy but have a prescription for some thyroid medicine. Hopefully, that will help. I tried the stairs at work. That killed my knees but I'll try it again soon and note how I feel next time. I don't wanna ramble on. I just wanted to point out that I FEEL SO GOOD TODAY!!! It's the weather mostly...and I'm just glad that I'll be fit (enough) to start enjoying it as the weather warms up!
It does feel good to feel good! Deb
