The Scale


I hate the scale, but lately I have been excited to step on it once a week. I just stepped on it w/ clothes on and have lost almost 29 lbs. I have a long way to go...LOL But it feels good. I have not been this weight since my early 20's. My ticker says I have 50 lbs to lose, but in reality I would like to lose 100 lbs. But if I have smaller increments it does not seem like an impossible goal. Does that make sense? If I have a ticker that says only 75 more to go, I would feel discouraged.. After this 50 that I lose I am going to have another ticker w/ 25 to lose and then another 25 to lose. I will reach my goal! I want to be healthy and I want to have a baby!! You know!

Just had to update on my weight loss journey! The Metformin is helping.. It sucks but it is helping, lol! I am off to make myself a low fat vanilla smoothie w/ bananas and frozen berries... Mmmmhhhhhhh... I am going to wear my new pants today and maybe I will try and take a full body pic.. I try and only do face shots cause I always feel so fat..LOL
