Hard Work

Well I am telling you, weight loss is a roller coaster of an experience.  You celebrate you victories, look down on stagnancy or inclines and over all are probably never 100% happy with the results ("if only i could get rid of my flabby arms, saggy butt, rolling thighs, etc").  I was just venting yesterday that my appetite had changed (which seemed like an awesome the week before when i nibbled at a small portion of icecream instead of gorging on 2 cups or it without hesitating or thinking about it).  I was not hungry,  food was boring, gross tasting, nothing sounded good.  Then still needing to eat 23points at 8pm i forced down half a 11point chipotle burrito bowl, it then came back up around 10pm.   I was feeling flabby and fat (despite my sister's great compliment on how skinny im looking).  I was frustrated that the scale had not moved much at all.   Well, today was much more of the same, no appetite, not satisfaction with what i ate (well may be the piece of garlic bread), nothing.  AND YET, i wore a smaller size shirt today, noticed my scrub pants actually had room in the legs, and biggest of all...i wore a size down jean that i honestly didn't think i'd fit into yet.  the scale is looking smaller today and my weigh-in should be very promising.  I say all this to say, i'm sure i'm going to go through seasons of good and bad times with this weight loss and (heaven forbid) even a gain or two.  But the ultimate goal remains the same, be healthy for the next 26 years.  And i'm on the track that leads to that.
