The Fill Kicked in...
I had my fill a couple of weeks ago and I thought I felt it. Dr. Rodriguez said I was swollen so he put in 2cc instead of the 4 he planned. Boy am I glad that he did. Today I was out to lunch with my co workers at Wendy's and I ordered the kid's meal. cheese burger and manderine oranges (I love that they do that now instead of fries you have a choice) and I have forced myself to eat slowly (finally) but I could not get it down. Two bites and I was through. I waited and waited and I knew if I took another bite up it would come. But I wasn't hungry anyway so I stopped. Later in the day I went out to eat with my husband and I was still full. I left most of my dinner (he ate it for me) but then after working out I went to Cosco because I had this overwhelming thirst. I bought 2 flats of propel and could hardly wait until bought them and then downed one right in the store. Thank goodness I had on my workout gear... so people could tell why I was thirsty but I think I looked a little nuts anyways. By the time I drove home I had drank at least three bottles. ( I know I will be up all night tonight peeing) Not hungry but thirsty... Has anyone experienced this? Maybe it's the heat...It was a scorcher here in the Inland empire today.

What -80lbs looks like!
isn't it amazing that we (including me) hope they never notice the weight when it's creeping up. But we are insinced at them not noticing when we are coiming down. My hubbie tells me daily that I am the increddible shrinking woman and that keeps me going. Remember most people are self occupied and also don't want to seem rude by mentioning the fact that we were overweight in the first place.

Jumping on the woo whoo wagon!!!
So it's been 10 weeks since I started this journey! I have been stuck at the same amount of weight but now worries because I have been feeling the loosining of my clothes and shoes...(now I thought that was weird) anyhoo. Last thursday was girls night out and I don't know what possesed me. I pulled out the leopard print dress that was my favorite boogies dress before I met my hubbie. Since I met and married my husband it has not fit. But I was feeling good so I put it on. I zipped.... and zipped and thought wow it fits! So I had to share. My girls are very skinny and very supportive and that night they say I got my confidence back. You see I have never been a thin girl but when I started pushing 300 I thouhgt I had lost it... You all know what it is. When you think that no man can resist your smile... I know in my head it comes from inside but I just needed a little of it back on the outside. Well as they say IM BACK! Long way to go but I am feelin fabulous!

Wonderful time in Texas
HI everyone! I had such a blast when I went to Texas. I am so glad that I went. I met so many wonderful people that I am sure will become lifelong band and unbanded buddies. I feel like I have extended my family and I just had to tell everyone how wonderful Texans are! Well sorry I haven't been on as of late I have been trying to catch up because of being gone. Oh and the knee is feeling fine! Although it is still swollen the Glucosimine is starting to work . I am so glad I had this done!
