DIET DIARY
NUMBERS FROM TODAY
Blood Sugar: 99
Weight: 283.0
Fat Percentage: 48.4
Water Percentage: 30.1
Muscle Percentage: 34.7
As you can tell from the numbers, my blood sugar is still doing fine and my weight is exactly the same as it was two weeks ago. I mentioned on Monday that I had “broke” my diet the week before. Well, this past week I’ve followed it exactly as it is. When I “broke” it, it was with cake and ice cream from my daughter’s birthday party. I had it twice. We also had tons of fruit, veggies, and party sandwiches left over. So instead of following the diet, I munch on that stuff for a few days.
Now, the big news is I bought new pants. That wouldn’t be big news for most people. It’s not even really big news that I bought them either. The big news is what size I bought. Although my weight has been staying the same, my waist has not. A while back I made a post about losing 13 inches. Well, I told myself I would not buy any more clothes until I could at least fit in a 48 instead of the 62 I used to be. Thursday, I bought size 48 pants. They were a little loose. Let me repeat that because it felt so good: I bought size 48 pants that were a little loose.
My next goal? Size 38. May take a year, but I’m going to do it.

way cool.. I’m gonna be buying me some new pants too soon Bigger. Since I quit smoking I have gained some weight. Well I think I have; honey says no.. My Mom though looked at me a couple of weeks ago and said “Girl you are getting fat since you quit smoking.” Almost made me go buy a pack right then. Then I looked at her and decided hmm she is way larger than me.. I hate the word fat.. I say well fed.. or Jeeze she’s a good cook! What gets me though is my Husband eats like 5 times as much as me and ain’t big as a pencil. I eat less way less and weigh more. and then the doc told me I don’t eat enough.. say it stops your metabolism!? Yall reckon that is true? I know when I was waiting for surgery they had me on a no fat no dairy no this and no that diet trying to make my gall bladder wait till they had time.. HAHA no such luck that bad boy ruptured and almost sent me to meet my maker.. anyway.. I gained 3 pounds on their eat nothing every three hours diet. But I haven’t had a smoke since October 1 so I reckon that is good. I have been thinking today though that I”d rather smoke than be fat.. But then again I’d rather be fat than dead. Or maybe a little fat and not so much dead. Anyway.. I’m tickled pink for you.. Sa what ya gonna do with the big cloths? I knew a man who had some quilts made from his big clothes then gave them to the homeless. I mean face it there is a lot of cloth in some people’s clothes. And the homeless need warmth. So did you get a whoole outfit or just pants? And man don’t wait till you wear a 38 to buy more if you do you gonna be busting a sag in them . My son used to wear pants way too big I hate the way that looks. Listen at me I’m talking like some one cares what I think.
Ha! Have a great day!

Congrats!!! That must have given you such an awesome feeling. I’m doing the same thing - waiting with buying new clothes until I reach my goal weight. Unfortunately that is still far away.

@Patsy - I care what you think! As for the clothes, I gave them to charity.
And thanks to everyone for the congrats! You have no idea how much it means to me to have this kind of support.

I applaud you! The main reason I come visit your site is to see your progress!! Sure, I love reading what you have to say, but I almost feel pride when I see that you have dropped another pound or so!!!! It gives me hope for my own weight issues! I beg you to keep up whatever it is you are doing and be happy. It’s what everyone dreams of. =) ::hugs from the blogosphere::

Isn’t that a terrific feeling. I’ve lost weight as well but I’ve refrained from buying new clothes because I know I’ll be losing more and my old Maine frugality is showing through. I decided today that if I don’t buy new bras I’m going to have to put a roll of toilet paper in each cup.
So if you see me walking down the street like that, just wave.

I had to buy the pants because I needed them for my job. However, I only bought one pair, so I’m being frugal too.
I’ll buy another pair when I get smaller.

I just wanted to congratulate you on your weight loss. I have also lost weight from 200 to 186 size 18 to size 16. It may not seem like a lot to some people but it is a milestone for me. So keep on keeping on ,the next thing you want to do is dance a jig which is what I did.
