Ok, been m-i-a but still chugging along toward goals. Ended up in the hospital for emergency gallbladder surgery! Turns out weightloss and sudden changes in diet can trigger issues in 40-yr-old women. Not sure if that's my problem. When I think back, I've had infrequent episodes for a l-o-n-g time (read: years). I simply learned to avoid the food triggers like deep dish pizza, greasy meats or fast food chili fries. So, in a way, I feel I prolonged the need for surgery because I've been a whole-food-eater for many years versus fast food. But lately, the episodic, tiny, sharp pain increased a bit and ONE day, was impossible to ignore..."Hello, ER! How have you been, old friend? Oh, you're sending me to a room for surgery? Thanks. And we start morphine for pain? Bless you!" Unable to lift weights last month but start again next week. And not counting lowest weight post-surgery because it was on the heels a 3-day fast before surgery. Body Measurements coming a little later too!
Weigh-in:
284.4 lb

TALE OF THE TAPE (18-Feb-2015 thru 14-Mar-2015)
As some of you may recall, my trainer asked me to ditch the scale and learn to hear, see and feel the changes in my body. I'm allowed to weigh monthly (which is good since I can be a little obsessive about those digits) and she breaks out the measuring tape about every four weeks. This marks my "First-30-Days" and I'm going down!
Area | New Measurement | Net Diff
Neck 15.2 (-0.3)
Bosom/Chest 54.5 (-3.0)
Bicep 16.0 (-1.0)
Waist 52.3 (-1.7)
Hips 54.0 (-1.5)
Leg/Thigh 28.0 (-2.0)
Body Fat % = 43% (-3.0)
A loss of 9.5-inches overall (Yay)! The sunshiny weather was no match for my beaming smile all day today -- even at the local Farmer's Market picking out my weekly stash. No hungry days. I believe Real Food Works!

I'm a little sad today. Sometimes there just seems to be so much pressure from all sides with spouse, children and so many hats to wear. Plus, I watched some 'food' movies last night and all the substantiating data for this diet or that is so conflicted it's ridiculous! So, I'm just sticking to my whole food guns. I believe that real food in appropriate portions will do the trick. I want to learn how to eat and live more than doing something quick that just drops pounds now. I know this is my personal journey and that I can't live for anyone else, but leaving other people in your life behind is more than a notion and causes tremendous guilt for me. (I don't know why, but it does). Worse yet, I think my husband likes it that way...me guilty and thinking for everybody in the house. He is a diabetic and swings from being very supportive and wanting to exercise to really not giving a flip and doing things that seem like personal attacks against my mental and physical progress. Most days are good days for me and I'm a pretty upbeat person. But this is our third day of wintry rain, no sun, feeling annoyed and all I want to do is cry. And that, of course, makes me jump wildly from not having the energy to eat a thing and wanting to make mashed potatoes and bake a chocolate cake. My husband skipped breakfast again this morning with a curt, "oh well" attitude. Why the heck am I upset?!?!? This is some real, mental bs going on right now. He'll come around...probably by the end of the evening. Unfortunately, by then, my day is shot and it takes me even more than a day to recover. What gives?!?!? This is usually where I just give up and decide it's not the right time in my life to lose weight or work on me. But this time, at 43, I have no more not-this-times left. :(

. Group on the quest for whole food eating (nothing to do with the grocery store). Hopefully, we'll follow the science and learn some things about nourishing our fit bodies with 'real' food.
