Lumps, Bumps and a New Me

It's been a long time since I posted, but I guess I didn't have much to say. Things have been changing in my life and I am still trying to wrap myself around it all. Of course, the biggest change is my new body. I have lost 80 pounds since my surgery (120 total). I feel great, but I have hit a plateau and have not lost much lately. I am now looking for a way to jump start the weight loss again. I have an appointment next week and will ask for suggestions, but I am pretty sure it is just the choices I have been making. 

Keeping that in mind, I am going to flush my system tomorrow and just drink protein drinks, water and pureed meals. Then I am hitting the gym after school. I've been waiting for a trainer to contact me, but no such luck yet. I'm tired of waiting, so tonight I'm starting my own plan to lose more and firm up... 

30 minutes on the bike and 30 min with the weight machines. I'll alternate upper body and abs on Tuesday/Friday with lower body and abs on Thursday and Saturday. Wish me luck!

Things that make me happy: 

• Shopping for clothes has been a pleasant surprise. I love being able to go in and buy things off the rack in most stores. What a thrill!!!! 
• Crossing my legs is another thrill for me. It's the little things that make me happy.
• Having energy to spare at the end of the day.
• Walking longer without pain.
• Caramel calcium citrate chews.
