I hit the 10 month mark on July 5 -- I've lost 85 lbs, and 80 inches, and am about 10 lbs under my goal at 121. I see my PCP for my annual physical, but all the bariatric labs have been normal, which for me is the first time in over 12 years.
I have been offline across the social media world; just a confluence of things, none particularly bad. I did a silent, restorative retreat at a place called Well of Mercy -- had a healing touch session that was beyond wonderful.
And I'm at the awkward age of 66, which means I have "adult children". We are all very close, and March-August is our busy birthday/family stuff/grand-dog sitting/neighbor dog watching and trips to see my husband's mum (who is a healthy, busy 97 year old) in upstate NY.
I've been trying to sort of discern what I should be doing with my renewed health self; so self examination, adjusting to a different body image (including very short hair as it grows back), and just sort of reverse adolescence.
That said, I keep you all tucked into my heart-thoughts and prayers. I've missed everyone! Will get a photo tomorrow, but husband is spontaneously napping this morning, so no photographer!
I am having a difficult time with calorie increase. I've re-read Ann2's journey for inspiration, but truly have a difficult time with "toad froth" still happening. Trying to find in my food log what might be the trigger -- I can't eat any more slowly than I already am, lol!
