skwhite's Journal, 20 April 2017

I went to the monthly women's group at church last night, we played bingo this time it was fun. I didn't win, but that wasn't really the point. It was nacho night. I mentally prepped myself all day, I did not have any chips, instead I ate beans and cheese. There were yummy deserts but I only had one slice of chocolate cake and to drink I just had water. I felt so good making those choices. Several people asked if I was dieting, I told them no because that means that at some point you are going to stop dieting and I preferred to think of it as just watching what I ate which is a lifetime need.

Great answer. People who haven't seen me in a long time comment on how much I've lost but I can't tell them because I haven't lost it all at once. Some I've lost within the last two or three years. I was 339 then, and I'm 272 now, but recently I've only lost about a pound a week. So when they ask how much I've lost I don't know what to say. Today however I realized how much the total loss is and couldn't believe it. I was flabbergasted to subtract it and find that I am 67 pounds lighter. I still can't bring myself to tell people I've lost 67 pounds since I'm sure they have seen me more recently and I'm probably closer to being down 30 pounds since they have seen me. I hovered at 300 ish for a very long time. When I realize how much I've lost with no problems, I realize that next year I could be below 200lbs. I can't remember having been below 200 in at least 25 years. How exciting is that. A total new world. My Diabetes Education Class is going to pressure us into exercising. This should help the weight drop faster and help to lower my glucose levels. Now if only I can keep myself alive for that long. Have finally gotten authorization to see the cardiothoracic surgeon about the mass in my chest. That fight has taken me days and hours on the phone but finally have a meeting set for 5/18. Prayers are always welcome.

I'm glad you kept going with the Dr's. Sometimes that is what it takes! Will do on the prayers.
