After starting a new job on Monday, I thought that I fared pretty well. Working nights now, so that messed with my eating pattern. I shifted my sleep no problem but now I have to move my appointments to afternoons, so I can go before work. Having a few aches and pains when getting home from work did cut into my exercise routine, but hopefully that will get back to what it was soon. I did have a Dr appt on Thurs and for the first time that I can remember, I was able to remove my shirt in front of the nurse without acute embarrassment due to my blobs of fat. I'm not where I want to be, and I'm sure it was no thrill for her either but I am on my way. I was a little surprised how tightly wound my weight loss and self image were, but probably shouldn't have been. It did feel good knowing that I look better now and that will only improve if I keep at it. I feel more in control of my life than ever before.
